The Philly Non Sports Show is this weekend, 26 and 27 October:

It is the same location at the Philly Sports Show in Oaks, PA.

Anyone attending? I will be there Saturday. While the focus is non sports cards, there will be dealers who have sports cards, including some prewar.

How does the show compare to the Philly Non-Sport Card Show when it was held in Allentown PA when the Reighter promoters had it ? Thx.

Mostly the same people/dealers, but a much much better venue.

It's an excellent show alright, but my understanding is that it's neither near the airport nor is it on a mass transit route from the airport or downtown Philly. Am I correct?

That is correct. 45 minutes or so from Philadelphia.

I’ll be there Saturday as well. Looking for 19th century Americana type stuff.

We'll be set up as always. If you want to see something in the Pre War auction that closes Sunday give me a shout and I'll bring it along.

My recap.

I went on Saturday, great show as always. Pretty busy. My one big takeaway was that N/T non sports cards were in high high demand. Everyone wanted tobacco non sports, especially N cards. And especially famous figures (presidents) or americana.

And there wasn’t much of it.

That’s mainly what I collect and was disappointed with the selection.

I feel like most of it is going to the big auctions now.

Some but still not much out there.

Is this a primarily vintage show or can one find vendors who deal with Pokemon cards from the original Base Set?

60 vintage, 40 modern, good mix.
