I recommend going to some local shows. The Orland Park show, in the south suburbs, will have a terrific selection of vintage on Saturday. The show is located at the Orland Park Civic Center, 14750 S. Ravinia Ave, 9-2, 70T, a:$1 - John Leary 708-423-1758 newpulse@comcast.net. On Sunday, there are two suburban shows within a block from each other, one is at the Holiday Inn, 3405 Algonquin Road, in Rolling Meadows, 9-2, 40T - Betty Kozlowski 847-520-1980 bettyk777@sbcglobal.net; the other is just up the street at the Radisson, 1725 Algonquin rd., Schaumburg, 10-3, 40T - Fred Copp 847-967-7824 fcopp@sbcglobal.net.

I'll be set up at the Orland Show on Saturday with near sets from 1950 through 1979 along with a selection of pre-war (T205s, T206s, Goudeys, Diamond Stars, Tattoo Orbits and Play Balls).

On Sunday, I'm setting up at a terrific vintage show in Milwaukee about an hour and a half drive from Chicago. There will be substantially more pre-war at this show along with a terrific selection of post-war. The show is located at Gonzaga Hall, in West Allis, 1441 S. 92nd St,, 9-2, 90T, a:$1 - Keith Kilps 414-915-3277 Wsca1975@Yahoo.Com.

Hope to see you this weekend!
