philly show
 
Anyone going this weekend? What are you looking for?

I think I will be there. It will be a low key show for me as I will mostly be looking at t206 commons. After picking up a cobb and chief bender, hobby funds are low.

Friday
 
I'm pretty sure I'll be there Friday at opening. I have a few cards to get graded by SGC and perhaps consign a few things while looking for T206s.

I will be there Friday . Anyone have any bats or nice baseball trophies for sale ?

I will swing by...

Perfect....visiting friends in Princeton Friday night and will be driving back home to Maryland on Saturday. Since I'll be passing right by it, guess I'll have to stop in and take a look. I haven't been to a card show since 1985.

I'll be there on Saturday looking for graded 58's and 60's. I'm hoping to pick up the few needs I have left. Anyone know if PSA is going to be there? I have a few to drop off.

Al C.risafulli 03-05-2014 01:50 PM

I'll be there in the Love of the Game booth (#408) as usual, accepting consignments and displaying material for the Spring auction. Stop by, consign, chit-chat, bring the kids for a free pack of cards.

I'll be there on Friday digging thru the discount bins. :D

AMBST95 03-05-2014 06:38 PM

I'll be by. Need to drop off at PSA and will be on the lookout for high grade rookies and eye catching prewar cards

judsonhamlin 03-05-2014 07:24 PM

I will do the Friday drop in. Working on some pre-war stuff and wrapping up my 61 set, most likely

t206hound 03-07-2014 02:42 PM

2.5 hour drive, $16 in tolls, $8 admission... Nothing new in stock. Have three cards being graded and will probably be immediately consigned.

Anyone find any treasures?

t206hound 03-07-2014 03:36 PM

At least I had a nice chat with Al and consigned a few cards.

I went to drop stuff off with SGC, too. I agree, nothing really out of this world or particularly rare, but there were a few fun things to stare at. An 1880's pencil case with a lacquered baseball scene was my favorite, but I didn't come home with it.

It really seems that the dozens of auctions have entirely replaced all other venues (ebay, shows) for finding interesting stuff these days.

I was at the show this evening. Picked up two lower dollar pre war cards. Enjoyed talking with Bill Zimpleman of Shoebox cards. Same faces/same stuff, but it was fun to get out and stretch the legs a little.

Jewish-collector 03-07-2014 10:06 PM

I, too, was there today the whole time. Really enjoyed talking to Al of LOTG, which was the highlight of attending the show.

judsonhamlin 03-08-2014 06:01 AM

I had a decent time last night. Al c. Was great, and I caught up with Kevin Savage who I hadn't seen for a while. I even picked up a short-print T222 and did some post-war set building. Did anyone else notice some dealer was set up in a trailer in the parking lot? It came across as a bit dodgy and I didn't go in...

I did walk by that trailer... Strange.

Stopped by yesterday to sub some cards with PSA. Headed up again in a few minutes.

AMBST95 03-08-2014 10:20 AM

Just got back. Dropped off some stuff at PSA and talked to Al for a bit. Picked up one new card while I was there, but enjoyed walking around looking at different things.

baker85 03-08-2014 05:47 PM

was able to pick up 3 more t206 cards graded by psa. 2 commons, George Stovall and Rudy Hulswit and I picked up a Hughie Jennings with both hands showing. all 3 were fairly priced.

Also picked up a t201 but im pretty sure I over paid for that one. it was ungraded. oh well.

Not a bad day.

Al C.risafulli 03-08-2014 08:15 PM

I STILL HAVEN'T WALKED THE FLOOR!

Having a great time, though, so cool to see everyone (as always). I'm bringing my son tomorrow; I bought him a box of 2014 Shiny Cards to open, he's bringing his 2013 binder to fill in some spaces, and I'll let him watch the booth while I go shopping.
