Next to the National, the Sun-Times show in Rosemont, IL, will have the largest selection of pre-War in the Midwest. The next Sun-Times show is in March of 2014. Monster Cards, a dealer at the monthly St. Louis Sports Collectors shows, has a tremendous selection of pre-War. You'll find a smattering of pre-War at the Orland Park, IL, Gonzaga (Milwaukee), Serb Hall (Milwaukee), Nutter Center (Dayton) and the Canton shows. I've never made it to the Moeller shows in Cincinnati or the Columbus, OH, shows where there may be good selections of pre-War. I pick out the shows I'm going to attend via the show calendar on beckett.com. There are a TON of shows in the Midwest. I am able to hit one within an hour drive from my house every single weekend. Card shows are alive and well in this part of the country.
