				 Friday - vintage collector viewpoint 
 
			
			Someone gave out homework to report on the show.  This was my first time attending the Philly show but it was great.  My report is as follows:
 Early bird attendance on Friday was very strong.  Seemed very, very crowded to me in early hours of the show.
 
 Much higher vintage to modern ratio than other shows I've gone to since reopening post-Covid.
 
 Great assortment of vintage dealers, from guys specializing only in high-end graded to those with collector grade commons
 
 Prices reflective of strong market, with the dealers of graded stuff perhaps recognizing a dip in prices since March/April, but certainly no crash
 
 Great to meet some up with Net54 members and meet some others for the first time.  I finally met Ted Zanidakis and a few others in person, which was a treat.
