The Mayor of Elmira, the honorable John S.

Tedd now holds the key to the city!

This is a view of Tedd's studio which has been replicated for the exhibition in the museum.

As television crews record the event, Tedd Arnold draws "on the fly," as Rick Pirozzolo introduces the Mayor of Elmira, the honorable John S. Tonello.

One of Tedd's colorful characters looms behind Rick, who seems oblivioius to the mischief as he addresses the crowd.
