"East Coast National" White Plains NY

[Al C.risafulli]

LOTG will be set up there this time around, accepting consignments for the Fall catalog auction. I did the show for the first time in the spring, and had a great time. Looking forward to doing it again.

I haven't been in years -- used to be great, but I think there are far fewer tables now. I will finally be going again next week -- really looking forward to it.

Didn't find too much last year. Hopefully will be there this year. It was nice to meet net54 members.

It is meaningfully larger and more widely attended than their every-other-monthly shows.

So it seems like it could be worth the trip. Really looking to buy a few cards and just like you said, "enjoy a card show." I have the day off work so why not!

Thanks all

Some of the nicer cards I've pulled out of the Westchester County Center in recent years include:

I work in Westchester and I attend the show regularly. It's a decent time, but don't expect to find any deals. Many dealers setup in the same spot with the same exact inventory each go 'round. The show is heavy on 50s and 60s, autographs, etc. It's nice to see the Auction houses displaying their wares for upcoming events, and there are lots of interesting folks to speak with. As for vintage, there is a solid core of dealers who are strong in your common vintage sets (T206, T3, T205) - Good luck looking for obscure items...There are none to be found (as opposed to THE National, where all sorts of treasures abound).

Parking can be a pain (welcome to Westchester), and do park in designated areas - local cops WILL ticket you. Food is blase run-of-the-mill convention food (hot dogs, greasy fries, etc.).

I go looking to speak with people and enjoy a "card show". I don't expect to buy much (even though I'm hoping to do so) and I don't expect to run into many deals. As such, I normally leave as a happy camper.

Unfortunately not.
