How many people attended last year?

What's that date/time?

What are the costs associated with participating?

Can this thread provide a list of cards that people will be bringing to sell/trade?

Any other pertinent details worth mentioning that can be provided in a summary thread entry?

Hi Fred,

I would say around 30-40 people came last year (over the course of the day). Details regarding date, time, location etc. are in the first post of this thread. There is no cost to attend and food and drinks will be free this year. People can feel free to post in this thread with items they plan on bringing to sell/trade.

Andrew

No way to know for sure, but I'd guess the attendance was in the range of 50-60 people or so. I think you probably had 30 or so just manning the tables. I ran nightclubs back in the day, and would often do headcounts in the room to compare to door tickets, sales, etc. Just my two cents, but from being there all day, I think you've understated the count a bit.

Definitely possible… I will trust your judgement, Hank!

A random take:

I'm thinking that it's like we Topps-era guys going to a supposedly 'vintage' show and being annoyed at seeing all of the shiny stuff taking up space there.

To the pre-war guys, post-war IS the shiny stuff.

This is the only gathering of pre-war specific collectors, 60 guys having a good time, keep it that way, if it grows to 250 guys having a good time so much the better.
There are plenty of venues for post war on up so folks that are into that can have a good time too.

I can’t believe that number three is upon us. The first two were a blast and I hope to be able to make this next one.
