Default KC Shows

tBob: The great shows you were referring to in KC were promoted by John Mailen and Jim Cumpton. They started in the early to mid "80's and ran through the very early '90's. They always had great autograph guests(Mantle, Williams, DiMaggio, etc), and their fees were very reasonable. Tristar also had some decent shows after Mailen and Cumpton ended theirs, but I didn't think they were as good. As much as I would like to see a National in KC, the venue is just not there. KC is more suited for regional shows, which have been few and far between.
