Slightly OT - card shows
Other than last weekend’s Philly Show, are there any other shows in the Southeast PA area? I’d like to get back into attending (and setting up at) shows now that everything is beginning to open back up.

I saw a link on Twitter can’t remember where but it linked to an individual state listing. I saw that shows in Wyomissing (Berks) were listed along with a few others maybe in Willow Grove? The Wyomissing may be at the Berkshire Mall. If you live in the KOP area that is like 30 minutes away up 422. They seem to be promoted by the same company.

Giving this a bump to see what else may be out there. Chester, Lancsaster, Montgomery counties in particular.

Sounds like you are in my neck of the woods. I am just north of Philly.
There is a small monthly show in Bordentown, NJ by RK Sports Promotions. It is right off the Bordentown exit of the turnpike at the Town Inn (I think is was a Ramada Inn before). To sell, it is hit or miss. One day you can do great and the next sell nothing. Pre Covid the crowds were decent before noon but quickly dropped off. He also has an auction in Lebanon, NJ monthly. I never attended so I have no idea what they are like. How this gives you something to do on a Sunday........... Bob |

I'm about 25 minutes from Bordentown. Any idea if there are usually dealers at the show with vintage or pre-war?

I drove up to one or two. Last time walked in and out in 10 minutes and said never again. Very minimal pre war. But times change and that was over a year ago.
