WSSCA card show in Seattle (Shoreline) WA this weekend

[Luke]

I had no idea this was happening in my backyard. I'm definitely going to stop by and try to add a couple t206 to the collection.

I wish I could go but working a kids baseball camp and have three games to coach in this weekend

Looks like I will be able to make it from SW Washington!
I've been forced to miss this great show the last few times so it will be fantastic to take a ride and be immersed in baseball cards rather than in work
Sounds like we will have several N54 characters there!

Woot!

I'm in Vancouver and with gas at $4.30+ in this area, it's too far to drive on a teacher's salary....wish this could be held in the Portland area some time.

Wish I could make it. It will have to be next time for me. It is a good show and a lot of fun.

Yep, I am not too jazzed about the 360 miles with the dumb NW gas prices right now.
We Portland/Vancouver area folks should carpool one of these times when we get some planning time.
I just found out my teenage son is working with a neighbor today ( odd jobs) so I will travel solo...oh well, he likes baseball but tends to have a much shorter attention span than dad at card shows.
I'll be there later today nonetheless

Met a couple members and had a good time. Bought a couple t206s from Mark Macrae. There isn't a ton of pre-war but if you like Obaks, you should definitely try to make it out. Quite a few of those for sale. Don't know about prices, but Mark seemed to be the only one with competitive prices on the t206 and he had a few stacks of Obaks. All in all, glad I went.

Many thanks to all the collectors and dealers who attended the show. Extra special thanks to Keith S. for helping me knock three tough Seattle Zs off my wantlist. See you all in November!

I think this show just wins everytime for the combination of cool cards and cool guys.
While I invested twice as much time just getting there than I spent at the show and dropped just less than the same amount on gas,hotel and dinners that I spent on cardboard, I would do it again next weekend (see the spousal support thread, I don't want to push my luck)

I had a blast!
I hung out w/ OBC buddy Rick Lyons and our N54 faithful, bought some really nice cards at better than fair prices ( no museum pricing ) and left without mustard on my shirt

Great to meet Keith for the first time and yuk it up with Mark, Rob and Andrew...anytime now we will be honorary n54 uncles too !!

Hope to see y'all in November!
