Good replies so far all. I enjoy those type of places too, and antique malls. All of these are fun spots to look around. My only problem w the large shows, was often that some dealers priced stuff like they were owners of a museum, and didn't want to sell. That said, Back in the day, I did get to go to four nationals, and a couple large Northeast Regional shows multiple times, and always found some stuff reasonble, for resale or to keep.
