I decided to attend on Friday and got there shortly after the doors opened.

I never paid the "sneak peek" early access price before; however, might start doing so on a regular basis. I've done the elbow-to-elbow-crowd thing before...it's highly overrated.

About halfway through my aisle-by-aisle scouting trip, I came across a table with a decent selection of Post-war vintage. The dealer (a guy named Paul Borges from Newport, RI) and I struck up a conversation and wound up making a deal on this 1956 Topps Willie Mays. Good guy, easy-going, and the price was right at recent comps.

I also picked up Kaline and Spahn at the show; a total of 3 more HOFers for my '56 Topps set.
