Rick McQuillanI live in a small town, with no card shows. The nearest shows are 80 miles away, and I rarely find any pre-war cards, so yesterday I drove 200 miles to the Sun Times show and I thought that it was great. From my limited perspective, it seemed that there was something for everyone, from beat up 33 Goudeys for $6 to T206 Cobbs. One dealer had 4 graded T206 Cobb Red Backgrounds, and a few tables down another dealer had 4 ungraded T206 Cobb Red Backgrounds.
I had a great time, enjoyed looking at the cards and talking to the dealers, and I spent too much money. I was lucky to pick up 7 33 Goudeys, 3 T206's, 1 Diamond Star, 1 Neilson's Chocolate Type 2, 1 Willards, and 2 W573's. If I didn't have family obligations I would make the 400 mile round trip again today.
I hope you all enjoyed the show. Please post some of the items that you picked up.
Thanks,
Rick
