Posted By: <b>Geoff Litwack</b><p>Just got back - ran into and chatted with Trevor, Josh, and Adam. I had hard luck finding T207s (what was around was overpriced), but did pick up some lovely N3 Allen & Ginter Arms of All Nations from Bob Marcy. Anyone get anything good?<br /><br />Best,<br />Geoff

Posted By: <b>Aaron</b><p>Typical waste of time for me, but of course I went because I'm paranoid the one time I skip it, I'll miss out on a cool item. <br /><br />I got some card supplies, but otherwise the only highlight (if you can call it that) was getting a complimentary issue of SCD (I never read this mag otherwise) and learning Bill Mastro sold MastroNet to his management team (led by Doug Allen) backed by a group of investors. (The article was a glorified press release, so it offered no details as to why Mastro sold or if he was forced out.)<br /><br />I credit Bill Mastro with getting me back into the hobby almost four years ago, and I'm sad to see him leave.

Posted By: <b>warshawlaw</b><p>great to see everyone there. Picked up some nice nonsports, an E103 Lajoie, a couple of T205s and T206s and a few other odds and ends. Mostly a social event, however, since there are only a handful of pre-WWII dealers.

Posted By: <b>joe maples</b><p>Did not know about Mastro, bought many nice cards from him before he got into the auction business. He would set up at shows in Michigan all the time. Just got the catalog for the February auction, nothing noted there.<br /><br />Joe

Posted By: <b>J Levine</b><p>For my money, I picked up two very nice t-80 tolstoi military series, t-205 Collins, Ford white cap, and Vaughn (all very nice), 4 very nice obak hits, and 7 signed J.D. McCarthy postcards of Phillies from the '60s and '70s. Nice seeing Trevor, Adam, Jeff, Bob C. (who had two great Old Mill cabinets)and a few others. <br /><br />-Joshua

Posted By: <b>warshawlaw</b><p>I got two miscuts, one a really bad top-bottom where a good 1/8" of the image from the row above is at the top of the card below, and one miscut to the side, and another T205 with a red ghost back.
