I never buy graded stuff so it is always nice to see large stacks of prewar cards in their in card savers.
There are some incredible items there for sale! I picked up a few things including a large lot of prewar cards for 100.00 (many of them are panels from T202s, but I also got 5 T206s, and 6 Barker game cards, plus a bunch of strip cards, non-sports, and Callahans). I also picked up a cool 1912 program from a local prep school. Plus a few other items (more on two of them later).
I will be back tomorrow. One of the great things about both shows in Wilmington are the items that walk in to the show. While some of the sellers go directly to the big auction houses, I am amazed at what the smaller dealers are able to obtain.
I am looking forward to meeting any fellow Net54ers tomorrow. It was good to see Don today.

Hi Alan It was nice seeing you sat at the show---always good to talk to you and thanks for bringing over Tim to meet me. He is quite a collector.--Yes the show was smaller than the Nov one and I do have to day, my sales were off, but still had alot of fun. I picked up a few collections (one nice lot of autographed exhibit 1950's card) plus the always tough Bill Russell Rookie along with some other nice stuff. Always nice to see u at the show, I believe you have been going from the beginning of the shows. I have done every one of the Winter and Spring shows here. It is still the best show in New England. See you at the next one. Don
