 Al and David Eicher, have for the past
thirteen
years produced 23 Michigan visual history documentaries. Their efforts in
preserving town histories and events in Michigan have
led to the creation of a lecture series.
They have designed these
lectures, including multimedia displays, for Colleges,
Historical Societies, Libraries, Church
Groups and Museums.
We've prepared a 2 minute "Lecture Tour" sample showing at various locations.

insure date and time. For more information and service fee, call Al or Dave Eicher at 248-333-2010 or email us at
