I like to just blend in with the crowd and do my gawking and a few purchases. I went Wednesday and Thursday. Yes tons of people, but that is better than a dying or apathetic hobby. They did have another huge space to the North, where I'm sure the dealers loaded back and forth. This perhaps might have been a good place to put food and tables, but it would also be a long walk to those by the autographs, and they may have had to spend more money to rent it out. Just a thought. Another, is perhaps open up one of the restrooms for men only, since it made up 80-85% of the attendance. Again, just a thought. Health permitting, I'm already excited about Chicago next year. Working on some Goudey sets from the 30's. Enjoy reading and following here. Take care.
