It includes an original advertisement from the show in 1978, with quite the autograph lineup, Ted Williams, Hank Aaron and Rod Carew! Only a Dollar entry to boot! Anyone here attend that show in general? Maybe have some fond memories?
Wonder how much some of the pre-war cards were going for back then? Would've scooped up as many Wagner's, Cobbs, Ruth's and Gehrigs I could afford, and some Mantle's too! |
Been going to this show for many years, but not quite back to 1978. Still a pretty good show that I try to never miss because there really aren't any others of any size around here.
They added a Fall show for 2022. I hope that one sticks around too.
