Default Collectors/Dealers in or near Charlotte, NC

Posted By: Bob Manning

I stopped going to metrolina when I realized that they all had price guides too, and were insulted if you offered less than mint for their beaters. But this was some time during the Reagan administration; as noted, things are different now.

It's been a very long time since I saw a show advertised in Charlotte, other than those regularly featured in SCD, and they're mainly loaded with 3 week old Nascar crap. Not that there's anything wrong with that ... (There were regular shows at the Grady Cole Center, and at the Convention Center out on Independence, but these disappeared about when the porkpie hat went out of fashion.)

And I haven't seen or heard anything about Jim Pruitt (who had the greatest business logo ever, featuring the Allen & Ginter Kelly.) Hope he's ok.

So I hang around here, the closest thing to a collector's community available. What do you collect?

Bob
