Hi,
A very impressive show as usual. I managed to pick up 2 -1922 W573 Uncut Strip cards - 10 Cards per strip w/ Hornsby, Collins, Bancroft & Schalk. Also a Minty 1910 P2 Sweet Caporal Pin Ty Cobb, a very nice 1927 Grover Alexander Exhibit Card, some impressive 1931 W517 examples including Ted Lyons, 2 - Lefty Groves, Eddie Collins & Al Simmons. This show resembles what the Philly Show used to be, unfortunately it is only once a year. The spring version of this show really isn't the same thing and wasn't nearly as good.
I wish I had more time to spend since 6 hours really wasn't enough. Also kind of strange that the food concessions closed around 4:00 pm. Not really possible to go out and eat then come back since the convention center is in an industrial park.
I wish I had time to go back on Saturday since this easily is a 2 day show to thoroughly go everything that there is to see. Just a note that there also seems to be much more vintage boxing cards and memorabilia at dealer's tables so I am thinking there may be an increase in popularity in that area. A highly recommended show.
