Robert Olszewski Interview

Last year, I had to make one of the hardest decisions in my life and I sold my Robert Olszewski Disneyland Main Street Collection.  I was just a few buildings away to complete the set, but I found I could not afford to complete it and I needed the money badly.  I sold my set for a really nice profit, but every time I see the completed piece, I feel sad.

On Sunday I was at the NFFC event and saw the completed base.  Main Street has never looked better, especially with the Main Street Electrical Parade in the center.

My brother is the sound engineer for Mouse Planet.  He was able to score a great interview with Bob.  You can listen to that interview here - http://www.mouseplanet.com/articles.php?art=pc080123pc

They talk about Bob’s Gallery of Light, Pokit Pals and the Main Street miniatures.  My favorite part of the interview was Bob’s dreams to have all of Disneyland available one day.  It would fill a small to medium size bedroom.

Dreams…
