A few months ago, Rich Klein mentioned that there was a card show this weekend, at the Arlington Convention Center. Except for the fact that it starts tomorrow, all details escape me.


Anyone going?

I am a couple of hours away. I would be interested if there is any prewar stuff.
Maybe Rich or someone that knows will chime in.

Jim,

According to Beckett's show calender, it's 100 tables, with show hours on Fri(12-6), Sat(10-5) and Sun (10-4).

I live in Houston and I've made the drive before, but not this time.

Here are the details if anybody is interested.

why do I get the feeling the pre-war selection will be next to nothing?

[Jim VB]

Thanks for the additional info guys!

Anyone laying odds on whether or not Gooden actually makes it to the show?

If I go, I'll pick you up a shiny postcard.

And maybe Paul Sjolin of Houston. Leon, I know we had talked about going to the show -- if you want to go on Saturday morning let me know so we can drive out together. (No reason for both of us to drive the same way for that whole distance )

Regards
Rich

I don't know if Paul will be there, but I don't know why he wouldn't be.

I have been to this show several times and there is some, but not a lot, of vintage. I wouldn't drive a few hours to get to it but since I am only 45 minutes away I might go.....There are so few shows in Dallas that this is the odd chance to get to go to a local one. Since my expectation is to find nothing I am sure I won't be too disappointed. If anyone else wants to go shoot me an email at leonl@flash.net or post in this thread, and maybe we can go together...depending on where you are.

JimVB- if you go, you and I really should go together...same with you Jeff P...and you too Rich K, if you are going...

[Rich Klein]

Like I said; I can go on Saturday Morning/Early Afternoon (as long as I'm back by 4) so I'm up for that. Leon, let's figure out when we can go if that works for you and let's carpool
