New Philly BB card Show in Oaks, PA......Oct 17-19......Check-it-out

[Eric72]

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

I hit the show yesterday & today. Had a good time & will definitely return. Free admission was a very nice change from the Philly Show.

glad show got positive reviews, but it was definitely heavy on the shiny cards and pre-autographed merchandise. there were a few pockets of pre-war cards, but very little vitnage memoribilia. i'm no fan of hunt's tactics, but the hunt show definitely fits my collecting interests much better. i left saturday pretty disappointed, but maybe if it was successful it will attract a wider variety of dealers next time out.
