Collectors Showcase Dulles EXPO

[Jewish-collector]

I think it is very worthwhile. There are a good number of dealers that have vintage cards, especially if Net54 members Dan McKee, Ken Cohen, and a few others set up. I agree that Friday is the best day to go. Admission is free and, as Andy says, the real collectors are there on Friday and much of the crowd on Sat & Sun goes for the autograph guests.

Now, the show has recently been sold to a group of 5 promoters. Time will tell to see if the show will be any different (more autograph guests, more shiny stuff, etc,...), but as far as we know, it will still be as it has always been...

See you at the show !!!

I've enjoyed the Chantilly show as a vintage and modern collector. I usually go Friday afternoon/evening before the autograph crowd. There are a ton of auto dealers, but also a good mixture of vintage. The show this past spring was probably the best I've seen in awhile.

Thank you for all the helpful advice. I will definitely be at the Chantilly show -- but unfortunately probably just go on the Saturday due to work and kids. But it should be fun. Anyone know if PSA or SGC have a table at this show?

I think the show has gotten better recently. Plenty of vintage as well as new. Was on a spiral but seemed to pick up the last few. I always find a few items to cross off my list, and manage to find some things on my wish list. Agree that Saturday and Sunday are autograph days.

I believe that SGC will have a table at the show.

Stop by and see us (Dean's House of Cards)! Recently picked up a number of lower grade raw T206s....including seven HOFers....a number of T205 plus misc. 50s and 60s. We are across from the "long wall". At least say hi! For us, as dealer/collectors it is always a very good show!
