Never being able to go there myself, I always look forward to your articles on it Carlton! Always well written and, what I like the most, from a collector's point of view. It's almost as if we were walking down the aisles with you. Have fun! |

Same here... thank you Carlton! The pictures were great (as usual) and I must have enlarged over half of them to get a better look at some amazing pieces. This meant so much to me, as I couldn't attend this year. |

Carlton, thanks for the great photos again. Were you able to add anything to your collection? Can't wait to see if you added any figurals or advertising pieces. |

Please know I’m still working on my written account of the 08’ National, and I estimate at least another week before it’s ready. Rather than mash out something just for the sake of keeping to my end of August deadline, I would prefer to spend the extra time to lay it out as nice I can. Thanks for your patience. -Carlton |

As some of you may know I’m way over my end of August deadline for my 08‘ National story, and I apologize for the delay. But please know I am working on it continually. I find I enjoy writing it if I don’t rush it. So rather than serve it up too rare, I’m going to take my time and try to get it just right. |

Amazing job Carlton. Honestly, the best part of it all are the photos of your personal collection. That display case featuring your game collection had my jaw on the floor. Thanks for all the hard work and time spent putting this together so we can all enjoy the experiance. |

Great work as always, Carlton. Looks like this was a magnificent show for figural statues and trophies in particular. Though your report made me really regret staying at home, thanks so much for your great coverage and photos! |

Thanks everyone for your kind comments, glad you're ejoying it. I added photos of Russ Purdy's things on page 3. Boy did he have some trophies. I was curious why he was selling them since you know it had to have taken years to acquire all them. He said his wife wanted him to sell them...I guess it was a room factor. |
