Hello Joe,
I was excited to hear of this transition when I first heard rumor of it last month. One of the big things that has irritated many dealers/collectors about the show has been the rule below taken directly from the dealer rules posted on the phillyshow website. Could you provide your feedback and advise if you will be rescinding this rule or keeping it in force? 26. Any dealer who wishes to exhibit at the Philly Show may not exhibit at competing sports show with (50) miles of the Valley Forge venue within (60) days of a Philly Show date. (NOTE: Per dealer inquiries, this policy applies to major sports convention shows only. Small ‘mall’ shows and dealer ‘shop’ appearance shows are not applicable). Thanks DJ

I drove down to the last show and really liked it. Probably because buying cards, playing card games at a casino, and drinking a few Coronas pretty much covers my current vices. One stop shopping.
Seriously, I was really happy with the amount of vintage stuff. Probably better than the most recent White Plains shows I've gone to. |

I will let Joe answer that (hi Joe) but I addressed that with him yesterday on the phone. I was happy with the response (and unhappy with that rule).

Joe, the show is trending now that you're involved. Looking forward to returning to the show at some point this year.

Congratulations Joe! Looking forward to seeing you at the show.
Any chance you can bring Jayson Werth in to sign at one of the future shows? |

I'll be back in March thanks to Joe's involvement. I've known Joe for god knows how long now and have complete confidence that he will try his hardest to run a successful show, and that is all we can hope for from a promoter. Looking forward to many future shows as well.

Good Luck with the show - setup long time ago, maybe 10 years now sense the last time, but will maybe look into it again if I can. At least a visit would be fun and do some buying and selling
Thanks for info Jimmy

Hey Joe, thanks for the quick response. I think this will be a step in the right direction. I hope I can make it to the March show and you are able to revive the show back to where it was a few years ago.

Hi Joe:
I am not a dealer and have never set up at a show. As a long time card and memorabilia collector all I would request is to NOT make the show into an autograph show. Did you head up a show in Oaks PA. a few years back? If so it seemed to me that autographs were the focus and not the dealers. Perhaps it was because they could not/would not attend due to the language in the Hunt contract that you have already said would be deleted. I have never attended shows in Chantilly, which again I think you run, but in asking collectors about it they all say it is more of an autograph show. I know there are a lot of autograph collectors out there, and Dave Hunt and most other shows have autograph guests. I am sure it is a primary profit maker and I assume it brings people in the doors, but I was at another Oaks show where there seemed to be more than 40 or so autograph guests where most were sitting around waiting for someone to approach their tables. Everyone was there from 1960 Philadelphia Eagles to Shirley from Laverne and Shirley, to wrestlers, boxers, other "old TV and "B" movie stars etc. There were a lot more autograph tables than dealer tables. I would hate the Philly show with it's historic predecessors ( Ft. Washington, and Willow Grove ) turn into "just another autograph show" Fred |

Wish you could get BBCE back at the show. The vintage wax at the show now is very small.
