Next year I plan to attend the National, as my wife likes the Chicago area and has already agreed to go.

It will be my first card show in a LONG time ... like 10+ years I'd say.

It'd be fun to see some lectures/talks by some of the more knowledgeable people. T206 lectures, maybe a hands-on authenticity 101 lecture on how to spot fakes/alterations etc, pre-war lecture on what cards in general exist in the pre-war era, a packaging forum to show the wrappers and cartons etc that the cards came in. stuff like that would be very interesting to me. Even a small fee ($5-10?) to attend wouldn't be bad. Just some thoughts. Can't wait till next year.

p.s. A presentation by Scot/Ted on T206 sounds wonderful!
