Palm Beach Card Show: November 10-12, 2023

I was planning on attending but have been suffering from back pain all week so not sure if I will be good enough by Saturday or Sunday to make it there. I’m in Orlando so a 2 1/2 hour drive for me. Feedback that I received after the last one wasn’t overwhelming so not going to go too far out of my way if I’m not up to it.

Understandable - hope your back feels better soon.

I will say that I guarantee there will be more vintage than last time. I can say that with full certainty because I was one of the only ones with vintage this past January, and I will have 3 tables instead of 1. So, at least triple the amount of vintage at the show when compared to this past January!

Nate, I am going to make an effort to get there. What table number do you have so I can say hello and check out your wares. John

He mentions F3-F5 in his initial post.

[BRoberts]

Get well soon Phil. The hobby is better with you active in it.

[bcbgcbrcb]

Thank you for the well wishes, guys.

The back was just starting to feel a little better during the last 24 hours and now I seem to have come down with the flu or something similar.

I'm flying to Ft Lauderdale on the redeye tonight, but I won't be close enough to WPB to make the show, since I won't have a car. Have fun without me.

Hey John - I am at tables F3-F5. Would love to be able to meet you and talk cards!


To others asking too - I believe the show planners mistakenly thought Palm Beach County schools had off on Friday, which they did not. Attendance on Friday was very light. Today was a good crowd, but again, not a lot of vintage tables - which has resulted in not a lot of people coming to look for vintage.

I was able to make several great connections with vintage collectors -especially today (Saturday - 2nd day), however, and hope to make more tomorrow.

Just watched a YouTube video of the show from Saturday. Looks like virtually no vintage, triple the number of dealers selling zion cases as vintage cards. Seems to be a repeat of the first go around there earlier in the year. Glad I didn’t spend the five hours driving back and forth along with the tolls and cost of gas. Hopefully, our lone Net54 member has a good show.

Nate, sorry I couldn't make it. Family stuff. But Orlando put out a great U Tube video of the show, including your table. Even caught a glimpse of your 7 year old son. You appeared to have the best cases of vintage and pre-war, so hoping your set-up was a success. I did catch a glimpse of one dealer's case that held a nice looking Wagner E90-2 and maybe a E93 Cobb. Bet those weren't cheap. But the paucity of pre-war and tables filled with tons of shiny basketball shows that South Florida is not exactly a bastion of the older stuff. John
P.S. I would wager that Orlando's purchase of the T207 Armands and the E90-1 Mullins came from you.
