there's not much in the way of card shows in the Midwest that i'm aware of ... the last time i went to the Overland Park show Mickey Mantle was signing autographs, so obviously i haven't been to it in ages! I'd guess some of the KC folks like Brian McQ could tell us what it's like these days. Two or three years ago Levi (707) said he was going to set up at it and asked if i was going to make the drive up, but i had too much going on that weekend.
maybe next year the wife and i can take a vacation to Philly and i can just coincidentally arrange it for when there is a big show
