Hey Chuck9788

Gee, do you bring back some very fond memories. I set-up at Ed Walsh's Shows back in the 1980's. They were great fun at the Asbury Park (NJ) Convention Hall on the long pier
overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Ed had great BB guests (Duke Snider, Bill White, Ernie Banks, Yogi Berra and wife, Carmen). It was a really great Show for selling, trading, buying
BB cards. Boy, those were the days....you didn't have to take out an Equity Loan on your home to purchase BB cards

Plus, the Show guests were the most cordial people you'd ever meet at a Show. Ernie Banks stopped at every dealer table to chat and see if you had stuff which pertained to him
that he did not already have. Yogi Berra's wife was the most gracious lady I ever met. She, too, went from dealer to dealer chatting, and looking for Yogi's BB cards, memorabilia,
etc. for their Grandchildren. And, I wil tell you this, Carmen really knew her stuff.
