Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>Ted- I'll be there in spirit but that weekend kicks off my new practice so I'll have to pass. Be sure and say hello To Mike Peich and Tim Newcomb (if he makes it) for me and tell them I will definitely see them (and you) this summer in Chi-Town <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: <b>dan mckee</b><p>I am booth 523, please, those people that sent me the death threats, kindly stop by and introduce yourselves. I bring extra beer and will share. Dan.

Reading Philly Show starts Feb 29....see you there ?
 

Posted By: <b>Mike Peich</b><p>Tim Newcomb and I will be there for all three days. I look forward to seeing everyone, including Jeff Mohler and his new friend Ty Cobb of Pinkerton fame, as well as the McKees, particularly if Dan is sharing his beer--Friday is always a thirst producing evening. Now, if we could just persuade T-Bob that the airplane won't fall out of the sky when he is on it, we'd have an even better group. See you all in few weeks.<br />Cheers, Mike

Posted By: <b>Ted Zanidakis</b><p>Just a short distance from the Reading Expo Center is the Crab Shack which features a nice selection of seafood.<br />Just continue on Rte. 12 and within a couple of miles (or less) you will see it. And, I have yet to encounter a long<br /> wait at this place. <br />For those of you not familiar with the Reading area's Restaurant situation on any given weekend. There are a lot of<br /> great restaurants and a typical waiting time for most of these restaurants is....TWO HOURS ! !<br /><br />Reservations are not accepted.<br /><br />TED Z

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Ted- when the Beatles came to America they got less attention than you are giving this Reading Show! A daily countdown?

Posted By: <b>Mike</b><p>Doesn't Ted Taylor always go to the Philly Show ? If so, maybe someone can ask him about his STAT Authentic company. Also have him read the other thread on here which is approaching 600 replies about Authentic autos.

Posted By: <b>James Gallo</b><p>I will be there, most likely on saturday unless something comes up and forces me to do a short visit on Friday.<br /><br />Ted I assume Friday is usually not super busy?<br /><br />James G<br><br>Looking for 1915 Cracker Jacks and 1909-11 American Caramel E90-1.

Posted By: <b>Ted Zanidakis</b><p>Friday nights at the previous three Reading Shows have been busy (at least for me). The<br />Reading facility is so huge that it is difficult to gauge how large the crowd is.<br /><br />Unless you are staying overnite in the area, I recommend arriving early Saturday or Sunday.<br />You need an entire day to cover all the dealers and do it right.<br /><br />TED Z

Reading Philly Show starts Feb 29....see you there ?
 

Posted By: <b>Alan</b><p>To me, the Friday nights at the new Reading expo center have been substantially less crowded than the Friday nights at the previous Ft. Washington expo center. I don't know about dealers' sales, though.

Reading Philly Show starts Feb 29....see you there ?
 

Posted By: <b>Arthur Lobbe</b><p>First time at the show. I did the Fort a number of times. How does this compare? More concerned about the weather.

Posted By: <b>bigfish</b><p>great suggestions on food options. I hope to see the Bacardi Bandit Saturday at Legends. Hope he brings my Drum Evers!!<br /><br />

Reading Philly Show starts Feb 29....see you there ?
 

Posted By: <b>Joe D.</b><p>I have to say.... I liked Ft. Washington better. The commute was easier for me... and the room had a certain 'card-show-charm'.<br /><br />I will say, I am sure the 'less crowded' feel has a lot to do with Reading being a bigger place. Bigger room, bigger aisles, just plain bigger.<br /><br /><br />

Posted By: <b>dan mckee</b><p>Bacardi Bandit? Its Vodka Vandit. What Drum Evers? Evers doesn't exist on a Drum back.

Reading Philly Show starts Feb 29....see you there ?
 

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Toby is a man of great enthusiasm and passion...the fact that a Drum Evers doesn't exist will not stand in his way! <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Reading Philly Show starts Feb 29....see you there ?
 

Posted By: <b>bigfish</b><p>I was told by a very honest man that this card does exist. If I do find it, I will put it with my E98 Hornsby. Guess I have to go do my homework. Back to the drawing board.

Reading Philly Show starts Feb 29....see you there ?
 

Posted By: <b>Ted Zanidakis</b><p>If you are looking for an Evers (bat-yellow sky)....it does exist with a DRUM back. <br /><br />So, keep searching for one.<br /><br />TED Z

Reading Philly Show starts Feb 29....see you there ?
 

Posted By: <b>Brian Weisner</b><p><br /> Hi Dan,<br /> Are you crazy.....<br /><br /> Of course Evers has a Drum back......<br /><br /> I have a Yellow Sky/Drum....<br /><br /><br /> Be well Brian

Reading Philly Show starts Feb 29....see you there ?
 

Posted By: <b>Ted Zanidakis</b><p>OK guys....let's be cool.<br /><br />And, answer this question....<br /><br />I think this Evers is the only one of the six Super-Prints to have been confirmed with a DRUM back.... am I correct ?<br /><br />TED Z

Reading Philly Show starts Feb 29....see you there ?
 

Posted By: <b>dan mckee</b><p>Ted you are a funny guy. Brian W and I are always very cool with each other! And I already have Evers in a Drum back, I was teasing Toby as he has been trying to squeeze it out of me. I am planning on bringing my T206 set for you to see if you have time. Dan.

Reading Philly Show starts Feb 29....see you there ?
 

Posted By: <b>bigfish387t</b><p>happy you stepped in here for an intervention. Conflict is not good. I no longer am looking for a Drum Evers.<br /><br />Reading Trivia: Who was the only baseball player to hit a homerun his first at bat but never hit another one? Prize for the winner.<br /><br />Dan,<br />I will bring some Uncle Jacks for you. Maybe we can work a trade for another card? I would keep the Drum too!!!<br /><br />Toby<br /><br />

Reading Philly Show starts Feb 29....see you there ?
 

Posted By: <b>Ted Zanidakis</b><p>I know that....I just wanted to say that you and BRIAN W are really "cool" guys.<br /><br />You show me your T206 set and I will show you my T206 SOVEREIGN set.<br /><br />Looking forward to seeing you and your Dad at Reading.<br /><br />TED Z

Posted By: <b>Alan</b><p>Joe -<br /><br />For the Philly & NY area collectors, the Ft. Washington show was more convenient. For me & others, the Reading show is more convenient. Plus the Reading show has more available restaurants for lunch before the show <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>
