The "Philly Show" is next week March 1-3 Back at The Valley Forge Casino resort

[tedzan]

It will be like the "good ole days" again with Danny McKee and I set up. Look for us at Booth # 412.

We will be "talking BB" and/or wheeling-n-dealing Sportscards this Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

I will have for sale (or trade) cards from 1887 thru to the 1970's. With about 100 - T206 cards (Stars, SoL's and Commons).
Including some tough backs (red HINDU, AMERICAN BEAUTY 460, AMERICAN BEAUTY 350, EPDG, PIEDMONT 460/42, etc.).

Danny will have his usual eclectic assortment of awesome "oldies, but goodies".

Looking forward to seeing some of you, and have a great weekend at this show.

Wish I were there with you guys, Ted. It sounds like a lot of fun again. I am fairly sure I will be doing the Philly Show again in the future. I had a blast with Danny when I set up there last time. Joe (hi Joe) runs a great show. I appreciate his support on the board too. Good luck!!

Any Friday Night reports?

I was there by 3:30 yesterday. Good crowds and almost all the dealers were 100% set up many then, which hasn't always been the case. Lots of wow at the auction house tables -REA especially- and decent prices around. Picked up some E96's and 35 Goudeys but there were 100's of T206s for the asking all over - both raw and graded. Got to say hello to Ted Z and Kevin Savage, which is always nice. On the modern end, lots of complaints about 2019 Heritage as far as case hit distribution and Topps' lack of interest in responding.

I was there Friday night and thought the crowd was solid as well. There are a bunch of Eagles players there today on the autograph side so I’m sure the crowd will be good. We had some snow Thursday night into Friday but weather is clear today which is good. I did hear one dealer lament to another that he “hadn’t sold a $100 of stuff yet.” I also saw a 3k+ deal consummated on some 48 Leaf baseball. I would echo Judson’s sentiment both on the amount of T206’s raw and graded (most of which had the spike in prices fully baked in lol) and the upcoming REA auction material. I also saw a fair amount of teenagers and 20 somethings who I suspect are mostly interested in modern but still good for the hobby overall. Ted and Dan seemed like they had a half dozen Red Hindu’s between them. I picked up 2 of the last 25 or so cards I needed for my 67 master set in 7 or better at what I thought were fair prices. Both guys came down a bit off the sticker when asked.

I was there Friday and was very impressed with the crowd on a snowy Friday. Lots of old vintage (pre 1930), including many t205, t206, m101, e121, etc. And there was a good amount of pretty rare stuff - Dan always has rare stuff, Ted had some great rare t206 backs, William Chappell always has a large and ecclectic mix, Bill always has a ton of real nice, mid-grade t206s, etc etc. For me it’s great bc I get to see a lot of people, dealers and show goers, many of the latter bring cards as well). Really a great show for people who like the old cards.

REA has an amazing auction coming up - a few major pieces, but mostly just a ton of variety of real desirable stuff - true cardboard buffet. Mile High has a solid auction coming out soon too. Heritage is there too (and they always have awesome stuff). I Was disappointed LOTG was not there (I always want to see what they have).

I thought it was a great show and well worth the drive if within 2-3 hours.

Seemed to be a lot of people there. The few dealers I spoke with said sales were a bit slow.

Highlight of the show for me was meeting Ted and Dan (Hi guys!).

Didn't find much on my want list, but then I rarely do.....

Met a another fellow net54er - I already forgot his name - but remember he was into Christy Mathewson!
