I will be there Friday all day. As a matter of fact, we will be having a pre-show, get together for lunch on Friday at Sichuan Village restaurant at 14005 Lee Jackson Memorial Highway before the Chantilly, Virginia show starts. We will be there from about 11 am until about 1:45 pm. The restaurant is not far from the expo center. No need to RSVP. Just show up & join us for lunch.

Now I know why I didn't see you at the last Chantilly Show and haven't seen any posts from you on Net54 for some time - hope you are fully recovered from your illness.

I also picked up a T217-Mono (of Stein) at the last Chantilly Show - I assume from the same dealer (Wayne H.). I also got an E222-A.W.H. from this dealer. I'm glad you weren't there to snag these!

Hope you will join us for lunch at Sichuan Village on Friday before the show starts.

I will be there Saturday with Jim jr-looking forward to seeing you there

I will be set up there for the first time in about 20 years. I used to love the show but haven't been there for a long time. I needed something to do since I quit the Philly show.

Brockelman and Luckey Auctions will be represented at the booth so everyone is welcome to stop by to smack Scott around a bit. Don't worry, I will hold him still for you.

looking forwarded to seeing everyone and please say hello and mention that you are a board member.

Thanks
Dan Mckee

I will be set up at my usual location (across from Wayne H.). I look forward to seeing all the Net54 folks. I've picked up more T205s and T206s. Also, for the more modern collector I am breaking up the Exhibit (1947-66)collection I purchased from the recent Brockelman & Luckey auction...there were some nice "hard to find" cards. Larrie

P.S. I am willing to try helping other Net54ers even if it is not from my stock...thanks Joe!

Forget about attending the Cardoholic meetings.

I'm a Cardoholic ... and it's OK to be challenged.

Hey guys, I might be a little busy for the pre show get together, but I'll try to give it a shot ... if not, I'll catch all you Sickos at the show.

Jim Rivera ... That's a great Back image site ... looking forward to meeting up with you, and Jim Jr again on Saturday.

Dan McKee ... Welcome back to the Chantilly Show.
Don't be too surprised if you see more Vintage dealers heading towards the area of the First, and Second Battle of Bull Run/Manassas.

The show is not just an autograph show.

Having been to many shows, cross country during the "80's, the show is not a Willow Grove show, but nowaday's ... What show is?

During the last few years, this show has been re- attracting (my word) more vintage from dealers, and walk ins.
The area is being rediscovered, and you just don't know what you're going to come up with.
Looking forward to two things.
Meeting up with the guy that I got a damn good looking T206 Washington Elberfeld for my beater set a few years back (you) ... and vintage dealer Scott Brockelman.

Val Kehl ... Glad to hear that you picked up a T217 (Stein) Mono, plus an E222- A.W.H. at the last Chantilly show ... to anyone familiar with the sets, we're talking about two of the toughest sets on the planet ... What a country.

My absents from the Chantilly show was due to a short illness.

My absents from the internet was due to an illiterate, and computer/high tech challenged mind.
I did not connect my computer in 1998, it was done by my now 94 year old uncle.
He used a second phone line for the connection.
Sometime in early Feburary, Verizon suggested that I might save some money by getting rid of the rarely used second line.
Nowadays if anyone says that they can save you some money ... you listen.

Yup ... I listened, and this computer illiterate disconnected himself from the entire planet.
Talk about going through a cold turkey, and the shakes.
Val, I'll see ya at the show.

Susan, and Don Ortolani, AKA Don Otto .....
Don is an old school dealer, and extremely knowledgeable.
You never know what you'll find at his table.

Larrie Dean ... Thanks again amigo.
Asides from vintage cards, I enjoy talking about Machu Pichu, and other interesting sites with you.
See you at the show.

Hope to see all of you at the show.

Glad to hear you're OK, Joe, missed you last time. We have much to discuss, my friend. And welcome to beautiful Chantilly, Mr. McKee. I don't know what we did to deserve you coming south, but whatever it is I hope it's not the last time. I think everybody on the board going to the show should buy at least one card from Dan just to keep him coming back. Except me, I'm not a card guy and therefore exempt from my rule, but I will give him a great big hug unless he pays me not to. Anyway, it's been getting lonelier and lonelier for us vintage guys out there lately, but maybe the tide can actually shift back our way. Many thanks to you, Joe, for pumping things up, maybe we don't have to just sit back and witness the demise of the vintage show after all.

Looking foward to seeing you.

Are people who are new to Net54 encouraged to join you, or is it usually the same group of people, year after year, meeting for lunch? It would be nice to meet some of you guys, if I can make it on Friday.

The pre show meet up ... is open to all Cardoholics.
It is MHO that Virginia, and Maryland has a larger Cardoholic fanbase than we think.
It's a way for that fanbase to get to know each other and exchange notes.
If you can, come over and jump on board.

Brian Weisner · #11 03-22-2010, 07:15 PM

Hi Joe,
Happy to hear you are getting around better. Have a good show.
Be well Brian

PS Jim R might be able to help you with the scanner.....

cfc1909 · #12 03-22-2010, 08:19 PM

I think the scanner was for Jim B.

My 2 daughters keep me straight with scanning and my computer issues. I am very lucky.

Thank you for the welcoming invite Joe. I started as a Cardoholic, but many years ago switched the focus of my addiction. Now I am more of a Baseball Photoholic.

I am still interested in cards though. So, I hope to meet you there.

Joe - Not sure who is coming to the preshow meetup as I had said, "NO RSVP needed - just show up". Could be a bigger crowd than I original figured on.

Robbie - This is really only the 2nd time I've done this. The 1st time was at the McDonalds and only a few collectors came. It is really meant for new Net54 members, so hopefully you can join us to.

Brian - I always enjoy talking to Michael Goldberg as I always see him at the Nationals.

Potomac Yank · #15 03-22-2010, 11:01 PM

Being that there might be some new folks attending ... will you be wearing a carnation, or something for recognition?

If I can swing it, I'll be there.

Joe Pelaez

Jewish-collector · #16 03-25-2010, 02:16 PM

Not sure what I'm going to be wearing. Just look for a puny, looking slob.
