seattle card show?

[oaks1912]

Thanks to all those that made Seattle another great time... After traveling there for 26 years, you'd think that I would have figured out the traffic patterns. Well I finally figured it out thanks to Keith. While digging through the closet looking for Zeenuts that haven't been nibbled on by the resident cat and possum, I stumbled upon a full size fire engine revolving light and a blow up doll of Bozo the Clown. Getting around Seattle is much easier traveling in the underused diamond lane, and everyone gets out of your way with a revolving light on top of a dark colored car. It only takes 16 minutes to get from Shoreline to Tacoma, during the morning commute.... Enjoyed the visits with all the collectors, came back a few pounds lighter (material wise at least) and also picked up a few things. See you back there in late October...

as always, a great show. good to see everyone there. nice chatting. good food and drinks with a few questionable house guests?!? and Mark, quit "picking things up" in Seattle. my closet is getting thinner. cheers to all and see you at the next WSSCA show.

The 2014 Spring Washington State Sports Collectors Association (WSSCA) show was one of the club's best. Lots of fine vintage material and vintage collectors - though still young at heart. I'm looking forward to the Fall edition.

For those in the Pacific Northwest or vacationing there, plan to set aside a day or two and take in the fall show. Details will be posted (shortly) at: http://www.wsscaseattle.com/

Again, great show! Thanks, guys.

Fun times, for sure. It was great to see and meet so many board members.

I put a few photos up if anyone's interested:

Thanks for the great pictures, Conor. Hey, wait, I think I saw a few cards I want to make an offer on!

This show was the jackpot for me. I actually scored thirty Obaks! Mostly thanks to Scott, but also Mark and Conor.

Scott's girlfriend's nieces (age 10 and 6) stopped by and Rob A. give them each a free T206 common. A nice gesture and I explained to the girls how cool are T206s. The ten year old calculated in her head how long ago was 1909.

After explaining how the cards were sold in packs of cigarettes, I said "Baseball cards have been sold with most everything. Tobacco, gum, toys, underwear, soda pop." The 6 year old said to her sister "Did he say underwear?"
