There used to be a local Berkeley show about a mile from where I live, every week--in 1985. Itwas the only show i ever set up at, and sold $900 worth of cards for the American FRiends Service Committee, for African Fanmine and drought relief. Pretty good for an unknown collector in 1985 with no cards except my own collection, and nobody bought anything older than 1950--except Dennis King, who bought a creased t206 Cobb.

A show where I can find a couple of cards I want, that I can afford, isn't terrible. I once left a show with every cent I came with...now that's terrible!
