White Plains Show aka "East Coast National" this weekend

[GregMitch34]

So who is going and when? This is show I never miss because full hall, while I now skip the shows the rest of the year. I'll be attending with the current major of Cooperstown and good friend and fellow author (see his recent "Split Season" on classic MLB players strike) so say hello if you see us. When will you be there? We will be there Saturday starting at about 1 pm.....

I'll be there tomorrow evening and likely after 12pm Saturday. Let the mayor know I'll see him there . Just spoke to him in Cooperstown over HOF Weekend. Always fun.

I'll be there, set up and taking consignments, and displaying some material that will be in the Fall auction. Say hi!

Hope to make it there tomorrow. Hoping to get some advice on rebinding the Jackie Robinson yearbook I bought.

I'd also love to get a better understanding of the different auction houses and the pros and cons (and primary focuses) of each. (Basically, why consign with one over any other at any time.) I've found that certain auction houses seem to learn towards certain types of items but haven't checked to see whether they sell for higher amounts consistently. I also don't know what the different auction houses are willing to negotiate as far as a Buyer's Premium (I know Goldin sometimes makes special offers, but most of the others seem to hold their cards closer to their chests on this.)

Of course always looking to walk around. Last time I met a Negro League researcher by some change, and would be awesome to meet some other people who focus on the Negro Leagues and/or integration.

I'll be there on Saturday. If it's anything like last time, I'll spend most of my allocated time talking to Al.
