October 20, 2023 - Casper

In honor of the spooky season here are two photos I took of Cathy Moriarty in the movie Casper! Here she is seeing Bill Pullman on TV and deciding to get him to come get the ghosts out of her mansion, this happens early in the movie and is not a spoiler. This vintage (Im assuming rotary style) telephone (the movie is from 1995) features an ash colored flat PVC coiled cord. This movie is a fun October rewatch for me, and good for families. If you’d like to see more coil cords used in films, check out our INSTAGRAM HERE for more like this!

I want to share with you all Meyer Wire’s Instagram Account HERE . Go give us a follow and see our fun photographs. We sometimes post pictures from around the office or photos of the coil cords we make, but we also have a little fun and post images of coil cords seen on TV, in movies, ads and even just out and about in our daily lives. People often ask me “who still uses coil cords?” and the answer is that they are all around you, if you start to look for them. So check out our Instagram to see daily posts of where coil cords are in your life, and it’s really a lot of fun. Also shoot us a DM if you see a coil cord in the while and want us to include it!

To give you an example of an upcoming post going up on the instagram this week, it’s Halloween which means SCARY MOVIE time! The images above are photographs I took of coil cords as seen in the movie Escape Room. This movie had a bunch of cords from communications (telephones) to medical equipment. The movie was a lot of fun if you are into the spooky genre and it’s currently streaming on Hulu. Check it out!

Four our first wire blog post, it’s fitting that we use it to celebrate this guy (Brian Meyer) who’s birthday was a few days ago. Brian has worked at Meyer Wire since May 9th, 1975.. 48 years! Brian has worked many positions here over the years but Sales had been his main role. In 2005 he and his wife Karen bought Meyer Wire from Cole Hersee and he is now the President of Meyer Wire. Talk about working your way up the ladder! Here he is celebrating his birthday and holding his precious dog Toby. If you drop by Meyer Wire you will find two pups running around and this little guy is one of them. Brian and Karen adopted Toby a year ago and we joke that these two are twins.
