White Plains Show
I went to White Plains ( I think calling it the " East Coast National"..is a bit much)
.Im a long time collector .. but only go to a " big show" maybe once a year ( Philly Show, White Plains, Edison NJ,etc.) Im into lower grade..older stuff 30s40s..but lower grade, I picked up things here and there... a few 66/67 high#s, a 30s Batter Up or two,..but more times then not I say no to the high dealer prices and pass on stuff I " need"....knowing I can eventually find it on line ..if Im patient enough I don't know what many dealers are thinking - common stuff like a beat up 65T embossed Aaron or Clemente... the guys said.." Ah..give me 10 bucks "..yea right..I just got one off ebay for 1.99 ! Most dealers don't know how to properly price cards in low grade.. they try to sell a Fair condition 1940 PlayBall star at half the NM price ! clueless.. I always walk out of shows like this thinking... OK yes they did have stuff Ive been searching for...but the price wasn't right

Met some really nice dealers and Net54 folks. Was fun and educational to chat with you folks about the hobby we love.
Came close to closing a deal on 2 SL with Bill B but it didn't work out. Then, 30 minutes before the show closed (Friday), I went back to Bill B to try again armed with more cash, but he was closed for the day  My only purchases were a 1972 Topps card and this:

White Plains
It was very nice to talk shop with Willow Grove / Sean B and banter with Bill Brodhead.
I picked up an e126 Ruth, t206 Red Cobb with polar bear, EPDG Dots Miller, 57 Drysdale with auto, Koufax auto, and the french fries at the snack bar are really good. The show is worth while IMO.

Slip...love the Doyle...very sharp!
206Collector...I really like how SGC puts the deceased date on the label. I'm guessing that is new for them? Do you know when they started that? Great pickup, guys!

Somebody picked up some things at the East Coast National. And they figured out how to deal with the high prices as well!
