Good to meet you, Herb. I see you found the Ali autograph you were after.

I hated AC but had some fun at the show, as always. Riddick Bowe was there at his own table on Friday (or Saturday; I kind of lost track) and I got him to sign a ticket from a Holyfield bout.



Also got to chat with him about his career.

Overall, I saw more boxing material at the show than in prior years, but nothing really earth-shattering. I am chasing some pretty obscure issues at this point, so I don't expect to find much on my want list. Besides the Bowe ticket, I only picked up two boxing cards, a Vendorlandus Ali from a junk box and a Felix Potin Carpentier for my type card collection. I also got this 1981 invitation to the Kronk pre-fight party before Hearns-Leonard I:



It is actually two 'gloves' joined at the top with a red cover and the invite printed inside but I couldn't get the whole thing on my scanner.
