My first card shows were the ones put on by by Mark Christiansen (very tall guy) in Fountain Valley, CA. It was 1981 so Fernando mania gripped So. Cal; I searched through all the common bins for his cards. Regular dealers included Dave Kohler (Sportscard Plus), Gavin Riley, and maybe Tony Galovich (who's a member here.) About twice a year there was a "Big Show" in Buena Park put on by Gavin, Mike Berkus (currently organizer of the National) and Steve Brunner.
