Benjamin, good catch! I had already printed this with out catching the erroneous date.

Joe D., thanks for again favoring Net54 members - much appreciated by this retiree!

[jefferyepayne]

Joe,

Might want to mention that on Friday's with the free admittance you can go to the will call window to get your ticket instead of standing in the long line to purchase tickets.

Saves Net54 members quite a bit of time if you get there right at 2pm on Friday!

Thanks again for all of the great work you do on this show.

jeff

[NC-Vintage]

I'm planning to hit Willards BBQ right next to the Dulles Expo Center for lunch at 1:00. Any other Net54 members want to join in?

Let me know and we can coordinate to meet up.

jeff

[Aquarian Sports Cards]

I'm going to have a larger lot of mostly 50's baseball and football that is lower than the EX grade I like to maintain for my commons. Was going to put it up on here, but I'll bring ti to the show if you're interested stop by and ask!

[larrie804]

Please stop by and say hello....as usual we, Dean's House of Cards (Not Dean's Cards) can be found at Tables 524, 526 and 528! We recently picked up 15,000+/- cards from the 50s, 60s and early 70s. We found these while on vacation in the Adirondacks. We also have 15+/- sets from 1954 on...1954, 1959, 1968, 1970, 1971, 1973, 1974, etc. Mention this post for a 10% discount!

Hope I see you there!

Willards BBQ is off the hook !! Great Place and I bet this is the first time anyone has ever said "Off the Hook" on net54. Look forward to the show and a Willards Smoked Catfish Sandwich.

[Leon]

Anyone go to the show today and have a report back?

Sure did! A small group of Net54 members met up for lunch at Willards and after gorging ourselves on good BBQ, we headed to the show.

Chantilly was down a bit this time in terms of vintage as I'm guessing some dealers opted to pass on it to head to the National in a few weeks. That's pretty typical for the Summer Chantilly Show in my experience. There was still quite a bit of nice vintage and pre-war material to check out so it was a nice show! I was able to pickup some pre-war stuff I've been after as well as 70 cards I've been looking to upgrade in my sets.

Some auction houses were there as well, showing off upcoming auction items: REA, Huggins and Scott, Mile High. Saw SGC and CSA booths but don't think I saw PSA . Or maybe I missed them?

Also got to say 'hi' to Loni Anderson so that was a plus ;-)

jeff

[Huck]

I took in the show today. I thought the show floor was kind of busy for the summer show. There was not a ton of vintage on the floor. As the other poster mentioned, the number of dealers was down a bit. I did see some early 1900's tobacco cards and admired some Tattoo Orbits that seemed reasonably priced. Far too many (1) auction houses, displaying cards (2) football in my opinion (3) too many tables that had the look of a front loader just dumping material on a table. I like American Pickers as much as the next guy but not at a card show (4) framed autographed items (5) odd booths, the comic book art booth???. I had a nice chat with Pat from Kevin Savage Cards out of Ohio. The other dealers I spoke with said "business was okay", "too many autograph guests" - which is the knock on the CSA shows, it is more of an autograph festival than card show. I do like obtaining autographs, hopefully a balance can be achieved where the vendors are happy as well.

Loni Anderson was looking pretty good for her age.

[NC-Vintage]

The Chantilly show is just a few days away...FREE admission on Friday for all Net54 members and 1/2 price admission Saturday and Sunday.Hope to see you all there !

[Piratedogcardshows]

Friday it is! Is it true the member tickets are at the will call booth?

[spacktrack]

REA will be set up in the front row with dozens of Fall Auction highlights on display. We'll also be accepting consignments for the Spring Auction and offering cash advances on the spot.

If there's any item in the current auction that you'd like to review in person, send me a PM or e-mail before Thursday afternoon so that we can bring it to the show for you to look at.

Brian

[OsFan]

Love the Chantilly show, I’ll be there Friday.

[larrie804]

As usual we, Dean's House of Cards (NOT DEANS CARDS) will be set up in booths 623, 625 and 627! We just acquired a nice collection of 50s cards (Bowman and Topps) from 1952 to 1958. Of particular interest may be the 125 Topps 1952 high numbers...sadly only seven but they include a nicely centered Pee Wee Reese. The Collection also included a nice selection of Topps 1957s. We have restocked from what was a great National. Mention this post and receive a 10% discount. At least stop by and say hello!

Good luck at the show everyone. And thanks again to Joe and team for letting Net54baseball help spread the word and also for the great Net54 specials. Sounds like a great show will be had by all.
We can compare notes next week (or whenever )>...as I will be setting up locally this weekend at Rich's show...surely to be a fun time too.

[kcohen]

I'm set up for the first time in several years, at table 525 with a couple of showcases of prewar cards. Stop by and say hi.

[DeafSports]

Just got home from the show. I can say it was really nice one. I was able to pick up some tickets from 1950's All Star and WS.

Saw one amazing 1889 program book with Hoy in it but the asking price was HIGH as 4k.

No T206 Taylor in the show, wow!

Have a great weekend! Off to watch great ball game between Astros and Yankees.

It was great to meet you today at the show, Scott! I hope you have a great show.

I thought the show was great today and hope lots of members go this weekend.

[ValKehl]

I agree that Ken C. and Tom B., who are not regular dealers at Chantilly, both have great pre-War baseball cards. Then, there's Dan Mckee with his incredible selection of pre-War rarities. Was surprised (shocked may be a better word) to see Levi B. (707 Cards) set up (with a relatively small display, for them). And, don't miss the eye candy on display by REA, Huggins & Scott, and Memory Lane that currently is or will soon be up for auction. If only I would win the lottery! Also, great to chat with these dealers, the auction house reps, and other dealers and collectors who are Net54 members, including, Jeff P., Andy C., Larrie D., Dave S. (Baggers Auctions), and others.

Was 707 there? I attended the show on Sunday, arrived around noon and I don't recall seeing Levi. His hat is hard to miss. Perhaps, 707 packed up early or I completely overlooked their table.

Yes, Levi was there on Friday - I chatted with him for 10 minutes or so. His set up was small, compared to 707's usual set up. I returned to the Show on Sunday afternoon, and I didn't see Levi then - nor did I see Dan Mckee there on Sunday afternoon.

[mickeymantle24]

Levi was there Saturday afternoon, but said he would be leaving later that evening. I was able to pick up a couple cards off of him. Overall a great show.

[taul166]

Levi/707 was there on Friday and Saturday. For 707, he had a rather modest selection. He told me his partner had to get back by Sunday, so he would only be there for 2 days.

I will be set up right next to Big Dave of Bagger's Auctions and his lovely wife so please stop by and say hello if you get a chance.

Sorry Leon wish you could have made the show.

Dan, thanks for suggeting that I stop by and say hello to Big Dave and his lovely wife - I did just that this afternoon - great folks they are. I guess you were that sleazy-looking dealer set up next to Dave.

BTW Dan, thanks for the trade, and I hope you have a great show.

Wish I was there but flying and airports are not that fun. I will make it, or the Chantilly show, in the future along with the Strongsville show, as mentioned. Our small local shows usually have about 1 table or pre-war, and that is if I set up.

[bbcard1]

Went to the show, enjoyed buying a couple cards off the guys I always do business with (William Chappell, Dick DeCoursey, etc.) but it was a bust for me. Drove seven hours round trip and really didn't get anything I couldn't have picked up cheaper on line, leaving with the majority of the money I had gone there with every intention to spend in my pocket. That said, the journey is half the fun and I enjoyed seeing old friends and am going to chalk it up as a win.

[Aquarian Sports Cards]

Don't know what your collecting focus is, but between Tom and I we cover a lot of ground. Did you stop by our tables? Any N54 member who buys from me gets 20% off sticker. Table 535
