I went to the show yesterday and had the wonderful opportunity to meet Ted Z. Nice dealer, great person, and an authority on T206. Ted, it was an absolute pleasure to make your acquaintance, sir.

There was a decent mix of Pre-War, Vintage, and new material. My only knock against this show is that the athletes who were signing autographs were given the lion's share of the attention, from a promotional standpoint. Oh yeah, and there is one other thing. Apparently, there is a rule in place that prevents dealers from setting up at this show and the show at Valley Forge. Whomever is behind that buffoonery might want to rethink this strategy. It's not 1987 anymore. Promoters should be happy to allow dealers to fork over several hundreds (or thousands) of dollars to shop their wares.

OK...rant over.

Great show, and I will definitely return.

Best regards,

Eric
