Mitchell Reel Museum Website to Close Down

[EggShapedReels]

It is with great sadness that I want to notify all interested Mitchell Reel lovers that the Mitchell Reel Museum website will be closing soon.
Kind Regards,

That's a bummer. Perhaps ORCA could arrange to take it over and add it to its list of reel research pages.

That would be a great discussion for the BOD to have. It would be a shame to lose all the valuable information that has been amassed and stored there.

Bill, who is a good contact for discussing preservation of some or all of the Mitchell website?

Well I guess this is the end of the Mitchell Reel Museum. I went to log on today and was not able to do so. I really hope I am wrong and that it will continue for a little while longer but I fear the worst.

Sadly,

Yep, same here. I think you are right Bill.....no more MRM.
Wallace said to use the Facebook chat alternative, but fb is not for me, so.....

Good News,
By 4:30 pm the website is back up and running. Followers of the Mitchell Reel Museum have been on pins and needles hoping that it would not be shut down.

Earlier today as I posted the Museum was off line but later on today, 12/28/2023, it came back and is currently running.

Anyone wanting to visit can do so for now. I will post when and if it does close.
Kind Regards,
Bill
