I stumbled upon one by chance a few years ago. I've been to a mall maybe 3x in the last 30 years. So, thought I was lucky. It was about 20 tables of reflecting, refracting shiny things. One guy had a '58 Aaron in vg for $1200.

The late eighties shows were a blast. Even small towns had more than one show to go to. Start at the flea market, head to Ramada or Holiday Inn and then hit up the mall on the following day. The '63 Fleer checklist was for some reason a hot commodity. I found mine at a mall show and traded a '58 Clemente for it. Thought I had scored big.
