Thank you to Leon and supporters: Jim Thorpe Show TOMORROW

[Snapolit1]

Another point I made a few months ago is that we on the east coast (particularly NY/NJ area) have a plethora of shows to go to. Regular massive shows in White Plains. Regular shows 3 or 4 places a month in No. Jersey. Massive show at Hofstra University a few times a year. When you collect specialized stuff like many of us do, it's tough sell to drive 2 or 3 hours to a small show unless you are sure it will have what you want. I went to a small show recently and walked in and out in 10 minutes. Nothing wrong with the show just zero I was interested in. It was only a 30 minute drive so no big deal. But if I had then to drive home 2 hours would have sucked. Folks in my area are spoiled as there is is literally a show I could drive to most weekends.'

I wanted to drive over to this one (about 2 hours from where I am) but had family matters to deal with.

I'm no expert on autographs, but I wouldn't expect you'd draw a big crowd unless it is some icon or a beloved local figure. This guy was a good hockey player or a good basketball player isn't going to get a lot of folks in the door. Hell, I was dying to meet Darryl Strawberry at the National and I'd be dammed if there was 20 people on line to meet him.
