Chantilly Show Oct 10-12

[t206blogcom]

I was at the show from 4-6:30 and thought the pre-war material was perhaps better than usual or at least on par with a typical Chantilly show. I didn't see as many people attending the show tonight though, including not as many Net54 folks.

For the memorabilia and auto crowd, lots of Orioles and Nationals stuff.

As always, it was good to see Val and it was nice to meet Jeff. Sorry I didn't have a lot of time to chat this time around.

Eric,
I would consider it a typical Chantilly Show. Pretty much the usual dealers, although Roger Neufeldt (SP?), who always has a nice variety of vintage cards, was MIA. Enjoyed meeting Jeff P. and Mike M. for the first time and chatting with them. And, it's always good to see Jason S., although I question his hobby dedication, as he chose going to dinner with is wife instead of sitting down and chatting with us!
Best to each of you,
Val

The old saying, "Happy wife, happy life."

HAHA! When your pregnant wife says she wants dinner, you listen.

Great to meet you, Jason! All told I saw/met five Net54 members last night and several of us (Hi Val!) had a nice long chat about a variety of card collecting subjects when we gathered at 6pm.

It was fun and hope more people can carve out some time to attend in the Spring.

I went back to the show today to get some things and noticed dealers starting to pack up at 11am, an hour after the show opened. I dropped something off to be authenticated and came back at 2pm and 1/3 of the dealers were gone or almost finished packing up.
