The National

We have attended 15 Nationals at different venues across the country.

Whilst there is some interesting material for sale, over the past 3 years,
the vast majority of the great items were displayed to promote an auction-
i.e. the Legendary and Heritage auctions this year.

The best sources for great material one does not see every day has been
Tik and Tik- albeit the prices are strong.

The number of rare, high grade type cards is few and far between.
That said a few dealers who run Buy it Now postings on E Bay- do
display their better cards- again the prices are 50-100% over market
which is why they have been on E Bay for a year ,

We have had good luck at some of the smaller tables with unusual Negro League material and rare post cards- i.e. we bought Rose Post cards in PSA 7 and a Just So several years ago

Finally, whilst many dealers prefer cash, if it is a large transaction
(say $2000-20,000) they will happily take a check or a credit card.


Good luck

Hope to see you in Chicago.
