Tristar Houston Collectors Show

[cmoore330]

It looks like I am going to be in Houston next Friday, so I am planning on checking it out. Are any board members attending? Anyone been before?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts!

I, too, will be there. I attend at least once a year. It's the biggest show in the area and there is usally a bit of everything to be found.

Really looking forward to this show. Got my auto tickets for Banks and Biggio this week.

I am going to try and stop by for a while on Sat

This will be my fourth visit to the show. The January show is usually a much bigger event than the one in the summer. I personally think it's a pretty good show with a mix of modern and vintage collectibles. However the January show is a bit more football heavy than I'd prefer, considering I personally only collect baseball.

Hope this helps. If you have any questions let me know and I'm sure I can help out. Also trying to get a group collectors together to have some spirits on Saturday.

Thanks for the info! I'm looking forward to the visit on Friday and like that fact that it might be a little football heavy!

Probably will stop by on Saturday for Gordie Howe auto. Dealers please bring your T213-1 cards and sell them for $200.

There was a lot of traffic around Reliant Park because they have three events going on at once. The car show is in the Reliant Center. The Harlem Globetrotters are on the Kirby side of Reliant Arena and the card show is on the Fannin side of Reliant Arena.

There were more vintage baseball card dealers there than I was expecting. I did not see any Louisiana issues but I did pick up this T205 Speaker from Sports Memories of Oklahoma.
