Does anyone have any input on the LI National at Hofstra. I'll be going on the 22nd, as it is 10 minutes from my house. Is there usually a decent selection of vintage cards?

If you are 10 minutes away, you'd be a fool not to go! It's by far the best on LI.

I'm in Islip and I get upset if I have a conflict that makes me miss it.

It will be mostly modern, but I have noticed an increase in vintage over the last few LI Nationals.

If you're a Mets fan, they have the '86 reunion as a draw.

There are a few vintage dealers there, definitely worth a 10 minute trip. My commute is about an hour and I have made about half of them since the show began. Not sure about this one............

Usually pretty good. Decent amount of vintage. Last one wasn't so good as I think it was the same weekend as the Oaks show and a lot of the vintage dealers went there instead. Don't think there are any conflicts this time.

An hour from Jersey? Man those bridges must be nice to you when you leave. It always takes me more time traveling to and from Jersey via the G.W. Bridge.

It helps that I only live about 10 minutes from the GWB the remaining 50 minutes is NY commuting time........
