NYC area card shows?

[Oscar_Stanage]

Hi,
Does anyone know of any upcoming shows in the nyc area?
There was a midtown Manhattan show but I think it’s done for good- can no longer contact the person who had been running it.


I’m tired of buying online.

Thanks

Would love to know as well but I think we're SOL at the moment. I don't think any of the Hofstra shows will happen, at least until next year. I'm gonna try to make it down to the Philly show in June.

I actually just found one up in New Rochelle on may 2nd.
I think it is every month. I emailed for more details, will let you know.

There was one in Plainview on Sunday. After soccer and then tutoring, I got home around 3pm. The boy wanted to go see airplanes, so we went to Brookville Park in Rosedale. Let me know about that New Rochelle show...

The New Rochelle show is ~23 tables. Could not get additional info on what to expect in terms of cards.... that is pretty small, and I'd hate to travel there and it end up being all Modern, but do not have many options.

all the info is here if interested:

Thank you,

I think at this rate, I've waited so long for a show, what's another month? I know the Philly one is going to be good, plus I can always go for a Jim's Cheesesteak

Saw your post, looked on line and found the following: http://www.sportscardradio.com/card-show-calendar/

I know nothing about these shows but there is one in Mt. Kisco, NY on 5/15, another in New Rochelle and a monthly show in Fishkill.

I guess NYC is a little too small to host a show?

It's odd, you would think with us being such a large city with so many people their would be good shows, and hobby stores to go to but it's the opposite. Granted the Hoffstra shows on LI are usually very solid, but we don't have much here. I chalk it up to rent and expenses being so damn high in this city, though they have fallen quite a bit because of the Pandemic.

there used to be a shop near me, operated by Renata Galasso but it's been years since she has done anything I believe. Long before I was interested in the Hobby.

I should just have everyone come to my backyard in Queens one Sunday.

I stopped by a show today in NJ, probably about 50 tables or so.. it was 99% modern and Pokemon. I'd guess this is the new normal?

February 4-6 there is the "New Jersey Sports Card Convention 2022". Given the venue size and the multiple days I'd think this might be a decent pre-National option.

Has anyone been to this that can share details? A few tables with vintage would be good enough for me.
