This week's theme: More 1950s Ragtime Revival

A few weeks ago I mentioned the phonograph doll - Siam Soo.

It's ALIVE!
One person thinks she was straight out of a horror movie.

Release the Kraken!

Another wrote me:
"Curse you!  I never knew about Siam Soo until your email last week.  I 
became possessed and found a restorable one in Louisville which came today. 
It' all there.  Have to make forearms and a dress.  Paint is actually good 
and label on bottom is intact."

OH NO! WHAT HAVE I DONE?
What portal into another evil dimension have I unwittingly opened?

How can we stop Siam Soo?

Or is it too late?

All hail Siam Soo!
Mesmerizing mistress of the phonograph.

I DO believe in phonograph dolls!
I DO believe in phonograph dolls!
I DO believe in phonograph dolls!

Don't forget to eat!
