i may take some high grade prewar if i can get someone to loan me a showcase. i sold mine 7 years ago when I opened my employment service (I sold it last month so i am back doing shows). If anyone has an extra and will be there at setup please let me know. I will gladly pay a reasonable rental fee.

I was set up at booth # 33..........Well things kind of did not go the way I thought. I did fine selling but my son did not come with me so I did not get a chance to look or shop around. I will not leave my booth completely unattended, so I am not sure what to say as far as what other dealers had.

As I stated, I was at booth #33 and I had small selection of PSA graded 1950's to the mid 1990's, other star cards, some nice raw 1960's hockey, and a nice stack of 1975 Topps baseball commons from rack packs. I also had some oddball items like a set of 1972 baseball batting helmet cards which are very difficult to find, and both quarter and dollar boxes. I covered my table fee with the sales from both the dollar and quarter boxes.

I met a few people from the PSA message boards and some from these net54 boards. It was nice to actually meet a few members and nice conversation.

From the little I did wander, I saw some BBCExchange wrapped boxes form about 1980 to 1986 in baseball and football, some other graded and raw cards, and a couple of hockey jerseys.

The crowd started slow as a half hour went by with me seeing only a couple of customers but it did pick up nicely. It seemed to me that the crowd was small but they came to spend. I wish I could report the results from the auction but I was distracted talking to customers most of the time.

I am looking forward to next years show if Scott decides to continue.

Thanks,
Robert
