There used to be a vintage only show up in New York state in the 1990's (?), where the promoter said nothing on dealer tables after 1976 or something like that. And, there used to be a "sports equipment" show in the 1990's in the Baltimore & Washington, DC areas (signs, bats, gloves, uniforms, pennants, etc,...) organized by Washington Senators collector & broadcaster Phil Wood.

Everyone has a different perspective on where the National should be and with a new promoter, it will be interesting to see where they have it in 2024 and 2025.
That show was in Albany NY and run by Ed Keetz. I went to 1-2 of those all vintage shows and they were a ton of fun

And you do know there is a show in Strongsville. Ohio which is almost all vintage. It was all vintage displayed but that eased up slightly after Paul Fusco passed on
