We would like to share some Elf pictures with you. There are not many now, but we will be adding more later. We hope this page (and the following one) will help you get acquainted with the Elves at Historical Folk Toys in Nashville, Indiana.

MSA Expo: exhibited at the 53rd MSA Retail Conference and Expo April 13-14, 2008, in Tampa, Florida. The waterfront location of the Tampa Convention Center was ideal and the weather was beautiful. We were happy to be able to attend the wine and cheese reception at the Henry B. Plant Museum.

MOMCC: (Midwest Open-Air Museums Coordinating Council) held their Spring 2008 Conference at the Buckley Homestead. Julie was pleased to attend, meet these wonderful folks and connect faces with names of those already known. We appreciate so many of the members visiting our booth.

AASLH Annual Meeting: Julie exhibited at the 2007 American Association for State & Local History annual meeting in September in Atlanta. She enjoyed meeting museum directors, curators, educators, interpreters, historians and those who coordinate many other facets of museum life.

AIM Conference: Julie supported the Association of Indiana Museums' 2007 conference with a booth as well as a donation for their silent auction. She was happy to meet in-state museum personnel and discuss the benefits of our products.

The Elves at MSA Expo: Joanie and Julie at the 52nd annual Museum Store Association Expo in Denver, Colorado. Thanks to those who came to our booth, saw our products, and asked for our catalog. We also appreciate your orders as well as the time you spent asking us questions.

Julie at Eastern National's 2007 Annual Meeting: She was pleased to exhibit at the Eastern National invitation-only show for top vendors in Atlanta. She enjoyed meeting and talking with site supervisors, regional & unit managers, bookstore managers, and National Park Service superintendents.

Head Elf and Managing Elf: This is Julie and Joanie at the MSA Expo in Louisville, Kentucky, on April 24, 2006.

As you can see, this is not a very good snapshot. Nevertheless, Julie and Joanie had a great time meeting folks at this premier trade show for museum and historical society gift shops.

Let's hope Julie doesn't forget her digital camera next year and have to rely on a disposable camera. The Web Elf and Photoshop can only do so much! :-)

Historical Folk Toys' Booth at the MSA Expo 2005: Those who attended this trade show in Milwaukee may remember our booth. This show was a great success considering it was our first show since the company opened for business on October 5, 2004.

Window Display at Chamber of Commerce: Historical Folk Toys is not only a proud member of the Brown County Chamber of Commerce, we helped support it in various ways. For example, we Elves sponsored a window display when the company became a member.

Tall Elf and Head Elf: This is Míc and Julie prior to the opening of the MSA Expo in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on May 1, 2005.

At six feet and seven inches, Míc may very well be the world's tallest Elf. He certainly is not the Elf with the world's best smile! Julie, on the other hand, displays her usual, cheerful smile.

This photo was taken by Maggi, the other Elf who attended this trade show.
