Upcoming shows
Coming into the second month of winter, we in the New York City area have gotten away with a mild snowless time of it up to now. As usual, things slow down to a stand still around the holidays. The days of the February Philadelphia Show followed by the York show are long gone. This is Americana week in New York with four major Antique shows which brings a certain amount of very high end energy to the market. Having spent three weeks in Europe in late November and early December, I missed many of the major toy auctions (Noel and Julia's were two) and heard a familiar refrain i.e. a few great things sold for outstanding prices...after that there was soft, soft, and more soft.
Most of my work until the spring is focused on contacting collectors, selling through ebay, keeping the website running and generally "walking and talking". I am also happy to report that I have been performing a bit both here and in Paris and hope to include some of the music here on the site. As for Cole, my son, he is doing some great things musically which you can access at http://www.cuddle-magic.com and http://www.peopleschamps.com
