Three is no shortage of cards from the 50's and 60s (unless you mean the 1860s). Don't buy anything for the first half of the time you are at the show. Just compare prices. Take a notebook so you remember who had what and at what price. Hopefully, you will then know the market, and in the second half of the day go back to the best sellers and negotiate. On that kind of stuff, unless it is really high grade or really scarce, bid no more than 75% of their asking price as a starting point.

Pick up a free National program when you arrive near the show entrance. Inside the program, there is usually a map of the floor layout and all the booth numbers. This will help you remember tables with nice cards you are interested in buying and still be able to shop around and go back to those booths if you decide to buy more or feel the deals were better.

I always buy from Dave Schroeder (sorry Dave if I spelled your name wrong) of Bagger Sports cards. My father and I have been loyal customer for years. We only spend a couple of hundred dollars each, and he treats as if we spend thousands. He and his wife are exceptional, fair people! If I find his table number I will post it.
