I used to run some mall shows that I just loved. At that time, the malls had something called a "Community Room." It gave us the ability to be located at the mall yet still have the atmosphere of a mall. I would often get minor leaguers or retired major leaguers to come and sign free autos at the shows. A few of the guests who appeared included Juan Bonilla, Rocky Bridges, Wally Moon, Alan Knicely, Ron Hodges, Bill Dailey and Tom Parsons. Free admission, free door prizes, you could barely make your way through the shows. We raised money for the local SPCA. Honestly, what killed them was that the malls shut the community rooms. When it got out into the main body of the mall it lost its intimacy and just wasn't the same.

I have set up at some smaller shows before, sometimes unexpectedly LOL....They were more a labor of love and shooting the shit with friends than a money making venture. Some of them were a fun for a while.

In SoCal, I remember in the early 90's there were some struggling mall shows still being attempted. The problem was, most of the stores in the mall were vacant and you felt like you were in one of those zombie movies where only a handful of people are wondering aimlessly around the mall. It was a slow, sad death of the mall show.

I don't remember mall shows but I remember a baseball card shop in Prestonwood Mall in North Dallas in the early 80s Any chance that anyone here remembers the name of the shop or even has a photo?
