I happened to be wrapping up a week of business in Youngstown, so I decided to extend my stay in Ohio by a day and go to the show. The promoters didn't do a good job stating what the hours were, something you'd think would be easy. The show originally was scheduled to open at noon (10 a.m. for VIP tickets), then got moved to 2 p.m. (per the website), but ended opening at 10 when VIP ticket holders showed up early and complained. I spoke to a few dealers who showed up at 11, expecting a noon opening, and were surprised to see attendees on the floor walking around.
All that being said, the show was able to overcome the poor management and was worth attending, at least for me. As someone said, there was very little, if any, modern. There was more memorabilia than I expected, but as expected it tilted toward Cleveland stuff, which just isn't up my alley. Strong prices and a few dealers who were operating museums, but that comes with the territory.

I went for a few hours yesterday, and it was a good show. More people than I expected even in the waning hours. I got to meet Sudden Sam McDowell at a booth selling his book, and didn’t even realize it was him I was talking to until several minutes later! Saw a decent amount of T206 and Goudey, but 75% seemed post-war vintage. I didn’t buy too much but had a good time.

Re: Strongsville Sports Collectors Convention 2022 March 25-27 In Strongsville, OH
Terrific show. Sold more than any of the 15 Nationals I've done. Almost all of the other dealers I spoke with concurred. Despite the start time snafu, Mike, Laura and the rest of the Lelands team did a great job. Saw a lot of old friends and made some new ones. Hotel itself was understaffed and mediocre at best. Biggest problem for me will be replacing all the inventory I sold before Pittsburgh and the National. Look forward to next year.
