Share your 2012 National photos!
The National starts today, and I will be attending for the first time tomorrow. There will be many on the board who won't be making it to Charm City, so let's give them the chance to see what this event is all about!

The guy gave me no hassle and the choice of partial or total refund on the hidden paper loss. He apologized and said he didn't realize it was under the sticker. Either way I got it at actual value now so I am happy. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1343934361.262755.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1343934384.444213.jpg

Here's a few I took today. Had a great time even though I only picked up four cards. Walked around with AG and Mike Healer for awhile. Met Chris buckler and pup6913. Also chatted with bowlingshoegiverouterguy and Leon. Looked through some of Dan McKee's cards (thanks Dan)! Spoke to zubes about the blue old mill. Also got to meet Brian Dwyer. Sent about three dozen texts to Chris Browne. Bought a card from Ted Z. Great day except that my Gilbert missing red ink still isn't slabbed

State of the hobby could be in trouble with the attendance down year after year..
Seems that way at all card shows. Every year they are getting less traffic and smaller. |

IMO this is not a good indicator of the state of the hobby. The way people do business has changed - the internet through its auctions and stores are the way now. Declining show attendance is a false indicator. (Similar to saying that the closure of 511 Borders stores shows people don't read anymore...nope...they just get their reading material from more modern sources, including the internet).

Erick, about all those Hindu backs
are those all t206s? My old eyes can't really tell. But that would be one large collection of Hindu backs all in one place. wow.

Bob, I can't comment on the E94 or E98 since I wasn't looking for them. I was specifically looking for E93's to build my set. I was especially hoping to find a poor/fair Cobb or Wagner, but had no luck. In general, there was not a huge selection. I don't remember seeing any of Chance and only a single example of several other cards. Prices in general were above recent auctions, but you could talk dealers down below the current buy it now prices. I ended up with a Leach (SGC 40), Jones (SGC 20) and Mathewson (SGC A - blank back).

Oriole Park at Camden Yards....
Oriole Park at Camden Yards is just a stone's throw from the Convention Center in Baltimore where the National is being held. I walked over to the stadium this morning to look around. The stadium was empty and the sprinklers were going. A rare site indeed, so I snapped a picture. Gotta love it!

He got to hold it and a $250,000 Babe Ruth bat. Can't afford either, but it's fun to dream.

Ed, No Howe's to be had so far. Lots of stacks of 206s looked at, but to no avail. Erick, great time today bro. Sorry you didn't get squared away on the missing red ink. I still can't see it. ag |

I picked up a couple of Hindu Southern Leaguers and passed on a few others. The E98s - Black Swamp Find - are simply gorgeous. Ran into fellow net54 member Larrie Dean and met Leon for the first time (thx for the shirt!). Heading back up tomorrow for the day and sticking around for the Net54 dinner - hope to meet as many of you as possible.
A couple pics from the show:

I'm not a big T206 back collector, so it's interesting to me to see so many of them slabbed by PSA with the back showing on the front of the slab like the ones in Jason's post.
Is this something you just have to ask PSA to do when you submit them? They look pretty cool that way, especially the Cobb back. Thanks, AndyH

Greetings. It was great seeing many of our vintage card collecting friends at the 2012 National in Baltimore.
In case you may have missed it, a couple of pics of the Net54 gathering at the National were included in the Old Cardboard August eNewsletter (eNews100). The photos can be accessed directly at www.oldcardboard.com/enews/2012/enews100/net54.htm. The full eNewsletter can be accessed at www.oldcardboard.com/enews/2012/enews100/enews100.htm. For any Net54ers who do not yet receive the free monthly eNews, you can sign up by emailing brett@oldcardboard.com. He will add you to the distribution list. We hope you enjoy the pics. Lyman and Brett Hardeman |
