This thread came to my mind after reading this article, by Rich Mueller, concerning the Rhode Island Show. It celebrates it's 47 anniversary! Which I'm sure not many shows can say the same!

It includes an original advertisement from the show in 1978, with quite the autograph lineup, Ted Williams, Hank Aaron and Rod Carew! Only a Dollar entry to boot! Anyone here attend that show in general? Maybe have some fond memories?
Wonder how much some of the pre-war cards were going for back then? Would've scooped up as many Wagner's, Cobbs, Ruth's and Gehrigs I could afford, and some Mantle's too!
