Jay, thanks for the info on th movie! I've had that still since the 80's as part of a large deal with a TV publicist that traded me thousands of publicity stills for cards.
As for us meeting here in the Boston suburbs, it will be an honor to attend. I can't wait to see both Scotts and the rest of the local 54 crew!
I recently saw that Scott 9ghost0 did a deal with my pal Greg Nazareth from Florida. Here's 2 great guys that i am honored to call friends and of course the rest of the 54 community is #1!
Have a great National to those going. Anyone going to be near Hilton Head 8/6 thru 8/14? If so, pm me! I'll be there re-cooperating with the family!
Regards,
Bill Hedin

Hello Yankee haters:
Its awesome to see you guys pulled this off and are doing it again! How many were there last year? Lunch sounds like it worker better than dinner? Sounds like it was very social? Was there a lot of trading, buying, selling? What worked vs didnt work for you guys? We are trying to start the same type pf thing in Ann Arbor MI so any help is very much appreciated. Good luch this year!

Hey Steve,

Sent you a PM with some suggestions on how to setup your own lunch, but briefly, yes last year was a great success. I think we had about 7 people show up. Some were familiar faces and there were even a few lurkers from the board. We didn't do any buying, selling or trading. It was just a casual lunch for us to talk about what none of our other friends are willing to - card talk!

The lunch lasted for about 2 hours I think. Everyone did bring something for show and tell. We saw some very cool stuff.

Hope this helps and good luck with your regional gathering.
