Alan ElefsonHi-
Great suggestions so far! If you want the trip to have a little more of a baseball card component to it you might want to consider timing it to include the Wilmington MA Shriners show. This show is normally only held once a year during the first week in November, and it is by far the biggest show in New England. This year, they are planning a second version in June or July (I forget which).
Or, if you and your family enjoy general antiques, you could go to the Brimfield Antique show. This is an antique show held outdoors (any weather) three times per year (May July and September). Digging for vintage baseball is hit or miss, but I always seem to come home with some stuff at an excellent price (its a big help if you look for more than just baseball stuff). There are thousands of dealers at this show, so there is always an amazing amount of stuff to look at and dig through.
I hope you and your family have a great time in Boston!
