Boston-area Shriners show - next weekend Nov. 6-8

[scooter729]

Hi all,

Next weekend Nov. 6-8 is the Wilmington, MA Shriners show - better known as the best vintage show in New England all year.

There are a whole slew of great autograph guests as usual, although the prices are more than I like to pay for autographs. Auto info can be found on the attached link:

We've tried and done a board meet-up the past couple of shows, usually around noon on Saturday. Anyone up for it again this year?

Hey Scott - Yes! I'll be there and definitely want to meet up as a group again. That was fun back in June. Maybe we can all get together around noon on Saturday? I look forward to thoughts from other folks...

The auto guest roster is impressive, too!

Looking forward to it. Erich

Hello:

I will be there along with several other characters. Look forward to the show and am open to meeting up to trade if folks want to. I will be there with 5-6 guys Friday and Sat.

I will be setting up at table #188 taking consignments for our Spring 2010 Auction. Zero sellers commission as always.

I will also have cards for sale. On Friday and Saturday I will be joined by Dan McKee, also bringing material for sale. We will have a tremendous amount of prewar available.

Hi-
Just a quick reminder to everyone attending this show that we will do our best to meet up at noon today in front of the snack bar. I hope to meet a lot of Net54ers and I hope everyone enjoys the show.
Yours in collecting,
Alan

Got home a couple hours ago after meeting w/ Brian & Sean at the SGC table & dropping off 120 of my little treasures for their attention.

Must have been a little late for the meeting at the snack bar, but did get to enjoy meeting both Dan & Scott at the B & L table.

Looked like alot of people still arriving when I left---PSA table looked busy--Big line at Bill Russell's auto table--at about $300 a pop!

What recession???

I enjoyed the show today, as well as meeting up with Alan, Steve and Erich at noon. (We snagged a table in the back corner to hang out and chat for a bit, so sorry if we missed anyone!)

Usual story for me - lots of nice vintage stuff at the show, but a lot of it priced pretty high. (There was an interesting 1/4 of a Boston Kalamazoo Bats team card for $800!)

I almost left with no pickups, but did grab this boxing cabinet at the end of the day...

A Pleasure meeting Brian, Dave and Scott as well as Kcohen today.

Great to visit with board members Scott, Alan and Steve today. My scanner broke or I'd post a couple of my pick-ups. In short, the pre-war cards were over-priced, but every dealer was very willing to negotiate if you asked. I was able to knock off about 30% on a 3-Finger Sporting News Supplement in superb condition!
