Biggest show in Chicago (except the National). Great selection, tons of autograph guests, PSA, SGC & Beckett on site, Legendary, Mr. Mint etc. Definitely worth the drive (I guess depending on where you are coming from). Put on by a company called Mounted Memories (they have a website) but it's called The Sun-Times Show because it's sponsored by the local Chicago newspaper. Hundereds of tables and thousands of people.
Hope that helps!

Hello,
I will be set up (Bucklercards) next to Uncle Dick Decourcy near the front. Look for the Bucklercards sign. Not sure the table number. I will have a large selection of cards from the Tobacco era to the 1960s. I am looking at a large T206 lot when I get into town on Thursday which will be broken down and sold individually if I make the purchase. Looking forward to seeing everyone at the show and in Hyatt's bar. Chris Somersetvelvet on Ebay ![]() |

Thanks Jeff!
That's one impressive list of autograph signers. I have a newspaper page from May, 1970 showing Ernie when he hit his 500th with a side pic of me cheering in the left field bleachers. Always though it would be nice to get it auto'd but don't know if I want to pop $119 for it. Have to think about it. |

Yes - it's 10 minutes from me in Des Plaines (D.E. Stephens Convention Ctr). Met Tony and his son at a previous show, traded a couple. Bought some cards from Chris Buckler as well. He was dead-on in one area - Bench 2nd year card he said would get an 8. I thought no better than 7, 7.5. Chris - had it gotten a 9, I would have owed you a C Note :-)
Not sure if I'll be there Friday night or Saturday? |
