Seek Movies & Photos of Gay 90s Village & Museum
By Chris Carlisle

Hi gang,  I know some of you old timers might be able to help me.
I am trying to get some old photos and/or 8 and 16 mm tapes that were
taken at the Gay 90s Village in Sikeston, Missouri.  Anything from the
early 1950s to 1978 would be good.

I also am looking for pictures and video that was taken at the Gay 90s
Melody Museum from 1966/67-1970.  That is the hardest stuff to find.

I have found about 50 minutes of material of video that I now have on
DVD.  I am trying to get as much material as I can.  I do have some
great video of Sadie Mae, The Emperor, along with the history of the
machines, and the history of the Gypsy Queen (not shown though).
These different films were taken when Paul Eakins would travel around
the different fairs with the organs and arcade machines.  It's very
nice; I will be selling these sometime in the near future.

If you have anything I would be willing to pay expenses to have
pictures copied or video reels transferred.

I am looking for pictures to add to our web site.  We will have
a new web site that will be full of nice pictures, before and after
restorations, and lots of historical information. If anybody has
anything, let me know.

Thanks
