Any others?

I just signed up. It'll be my first time at the show, but I'll be set up, accepting consignments and yammering about cards with whomever comes by.

I'm not sure what booth I'm in, but it's right on the main aisle - come visit!

I looked all over for information on this show and couldn't find it. Can someone send me a pm with details. Thanks

Thanks for the pm. So does this show have a lot of local dealers that don't leave the NE. I am in Philly and have hit most of the NE dealers but I am wondering if there are a lot of pre war dealers that just don't leave the Boston area.

James I am from Maine and have done every one of the Wilmington shows since they started in the 80's---Trust me--most of the New England dealers dont leave New England---There are some great vintage dealers here---I do have some nice N300's ---many graded 1933 Goudeys---etc.---I am looking forward to the show this weekend----Good Luck, Don

I will be there on Friday. Unfortunately, I can't make it Saturday. I know there is typically at net54 meetup around noon on saturday. I'm sure Scott or someone else will mention the meeting place. have fun everyone and good card hunting!

The upcoming Shriner's show in April is put on by Rich Altman who, I believe, has only put on shows at this location for a couple of years. The November show is put on by the Greater Boston Sports Collectors Club, who have put on terrific shows at this venue since the 1980's. Two very different shows...only the location is the same.

Hi-
I will be there Friday afternoon/evening and all day Saturday. I am definitely up for a meet up on any day. However, our typical day and time is Saturday at noon. Usually we meet by the concession area/bar. If you are at the show Saturday, please stop by! Otherwise, just yell out Net54 every 10-15 minutes and see who is around.
In terms of the show quality it is not as good as the November one but there are still excellent dealers and merchandise for sale. I only look for vintage and have yet to be disappointed with the April show since its inception.

My God, if someone is going to drive nine hours to the show, then what excuse do I have not to drive thirty minutes??? So I will try to make it on Saturday...
