4th Annual Vintage Trade Show and Get Together - February 7, 2026 - Save the Date!

[Andrew1975]

Ryan and I will be hosting the 4th Annual Vintage Trade Show and Get Together on February 7, 2026, from 10am - 4pm, at the 1757 Golf Club (45120 Waxpool Road, Dulles, Virginia).

For 2026, we will be moving into a larger room (within the same building), and it will still be free to attend, with even more free food and drinks. Goldin Auctions/Joe T. will again be sponsoring the event.

This event has continued to grow, and we look forward to having even more attendees in 2026. If you are reading this, you are invited. I hope to see a lot of you there. Much more information to follow…

Here is a link to the thread from last year (lots of information and photos), and a link to Sammy Thunder's video, which documented the day:

Andrew and Ryan, thank you so much for organizing this again (& thanks to Joe T). The Super Bowl is on Feb 8th so this event is a great way to lead into the big game.

I was so pumped to attend this year but as you know, got sick 3 days prior so didn't make it. Even still have my unused / new display cases from last year to bring.

So now plan to live in a bubble for the 2 weeks leading up to this event. ha.

[brass_rat]

My calendar has been updated! I've had a fantastic time every year, and I look forward to it again!

Thank you very much to you both for organizing!

Cheers,
Steve

[Michael Peich]

Thank you, Andrew and Ryan, and I am definitely in for 2026. This is a fabulous gathering hosted by two incredibly generous people. Wouldn't miss it!

Cheers,
Mike

We are very excited for another event. It’s grown each year and hopefully year 4 is the biggest yet.

Paul, the farm is not as great a location as the golf club. But it’s not that far (maybe an hour) and we can go there. I still have some cards left!

[The Detroit Collector]

Really going to try to make it!

[Natswin2019]

Ill be there! This is always a wonderful event and im very excited for it!

[shoreball51]

I brought mostly pre-WWI Olympic items the last time and they did not banish me to the janitor's closet.

[Andrew1975]

Jeff, the main theme has been, and will continue to be, prewar baseball. That said, no one will be turned away for bringing vintage cards from their collection that fall outside that parameter. Last year, I displayed some of my prewar non-sports cards, and people seemed to like seeing them. Michael’s Olympics collection was fantastic. Personally, I would love to see your vintage football collection. Hope you can make it.

Andrew

[JimC]

Me too, Jeff. Your football stuff would fit right in. I'd love to see what you'd bring.

[Jewish-collector]

Oh hell yeah !!! beer chug.gifbeer chug.gifbeer chug.gifbeer chug.gifbeer chug.gif

[ValKehl]

Football cards produced before WWII?! Who knew?! Jeff, just teasin' ya! I,too, would enjoy seeing your vintage football collection.

Andrew please count me in. Feb 7th is my birthday weekend and there's honestly no better way to spend it than with the folks who'll be in that room for the day. I can't wait.

Can I throw my name into the hat, also, as a sponsor, and perhaps put up some cash to help offset the costs of hosting the day? I want to be involved if you'll let me -- and to give back to you and the others.

Well depending on the weather at the time, I will try my best to be there for the first time.
Thanks for organizing this!

Andy, I'm 99.9% sure that within 30 minutes of your arrival, you will be extremely glad that you came!

[philliesfan]

Andy - If I do make it there, we can hang out. I am the same way! I have been a member here since May 2009 and I do not think anyone here knows me.

Grown men paying money for photos and caricatures on little pieces of cardboard. Socially awkward and occasionally wearing a sports jersey probably one size too small are at least two of the requirements.

NOW GET OFF MY LAWN!!!

Michael, if you keep ranting like this, you just might get banished to the janitor's closet this year!
