Wilmington Mass Show (Shriners) - anyone setting up or attending?

[Belfast1933]

I'm really looking forward to attending the Nov 4-6 card show in Wilmington Mass... I'm wondering if any Net54 members will be attending or setting up to sell there?

If anyone is and has any of these to sell or trade and will be there, hit me up!

Thanks and see you Nov 4th -

I will be set up at tables 63 and 64. Only pre war cards I have are 31 different 1912 T207s currently listed here on Net 54.

I have a hodgepodge of other material including a 1960 Leaf complete set in nice condition, a few thousand autographed items including photos, index cards, cuts, and baseballs, original photos, scorecards, etc.

I will be set up at tables 113-115 with John Liffmann as always. We will have a wide selection cards this year but the focus is always on pre war.

Tell John hi for me. He was the intermediary for me acquiring my 1903 Horner Composite. He had it hidden under a table at a national, on consignment. When I saw it, I knew I wanted it.

I will let him know. We usually end up talking about that composite a few times a year. It really is an incredible item.

Decided to check out the Shriner's Show in Wilmington, MA this afternoon. I had not been there for a few years. Every year more and more of the modern stuff creaps in.

Highlights included: a nice Tom Needham Carl Horner Cabinet, lots of nice T207s, lots of 205s and T206s.

Best selection of prewar cards was found at Ed Hans and Dan McKee's tables.

Picked up a E254 Walter Woods, PX7 Chief Meyers Domino Disc, and a colored Johnny Kling S74 silk from Ed.

I spent about three hours there today and have been to the past several of these. There was a lot of vintage, many of the major auction houses were there and a few grading companies.

Many of sticker prices seemed to be at peak plus and not reflective of the market slipping a bit. Of course you can always try to negotiate the price. I spent zero time on the ultra modern tables and very little time at tables with zero prices listed. There were a lot of nice expensive vintage cards on display.

[Kutcher55]

Thanks for the report. Was hoping we would see a bit of thawing in vintage prices with the recent downtick but not surprised to hear that is not happening. Then again it was Friday so maybe prices will moderate as the weekend rolls on. Going there today and possibly tomorrow.

We just got back from the show, I was able to hang out with Bob Thing, Dave & Meri Schrader, met Kevin Savage & met Ed Hans who I was able to make a Fair Deal on a Mello Mint.

Neat Show! I was last there about 15 years ago and was set up with Scott Brockelman representing Brokelman and Luckey auctions at the time.

I had the huge pleasure of setting up with Mr. Ed Hans this time and had a blast!

Great seeing a bunch of folks I have known forever and I don't get to see by doing just the Chantilly, VA and Philly shows.

Thanks again Ed!

Great experience all around except getting stuck for 1.5 hours in a dead stopped back up by White Plains on the way home due to an accident.

I sure hope no one past away from that bad crash.

I had a great show both buying and selling. Foot traffic was very steady and I had time to chat with all the regulars that stop by every year.
Great conversation as always with Ed Hans, Dan Mckee, Bryan Dec, Brian Drent, Alan Elefson, Scott Sarian, Steve H and countless others.
Sadly, this was our first show setting up without Chris Smith who passed away early this year.
