When I walk around the Toronto Expo, most guys I see selling vintage are old. Once they retire from the show biz, it will be 99.999% modern - Yu-gi Oh, Pokemon, rainbow refractors, autographed game-used jockstrap cards, etc.
R.I.P. vintage

Wait, only 99.999%?? Why is your estimate so low?

The National
I know it's not possible but it sure would be great if the National could be broken up in three area groups for dealers.
vintage only Mix of Vintage/ Shiny stuff/Pokemon All in with shiny/Pokemon It sure would save the back and knees of this old guy not having to walk the entire floor looking for the "good stuff" !!

As long as dealers choose their spots by priority, that will not happen. All dealers picking early look for the best spaces based on location. Many modern dealers have high priorities and choose the best spots along with the long time vintage dealers.

I keep thinking, suggesting and saying that it's time someone/some group initiated an annual Pre-War National (my preference) or an annual Vintage (pre-1976) National!!

Strongsville is a great show, but we need a show thats all vintage thats multiple the size of Strongsville. I would argue most people could go through every table in Strongsville in a day. I think a Vintage show the size of Dallas or Cahntilly would be accepted with open arms.

LOL. On the forum we do our best to promote to the younger generation. But most times they are collecting to make a buck. The other ones are the vintage collectors of the future.
I was 42 when I started doing Net54baseball. I will be 64 this year. We are getting older, thank goodness! Quote:
