Dallas has been around for maybe a year? Once again a huge social media following/backing.
Makes sense to me.

That does make sense…the established shows are a mix of stuff and long-time dealers, the new shows are the Facebook/Twitter crowd.
I went to the Cranston (RI) show a week or so back and while smaller than in the past (not it’s usual weekend) it was far more ungraded than graded and I’d say vintage outweighed modern. And nobody was filming themselves - not a “selfie stick” to be seen.
Maybe that’s the way it should be…the modern crowd would be just as disappointed at a show the vintage crowd would love. Keep the dusty old cardboard and the plastic and foil separate, and everyone is happy!
