If I am not mistaken, you've been attending the Philly Shows since the glorious days of the Ft Washington and Reading Shows.

Well, many of those vintage dealers will be at the Oaks show. Now, all we need is some more customers. And, judging from the
"response" to Dan's thread here, it doesn't look like we will have a decent crowd.

In any event, I look forward to seeing and chatting with you.

I attended the previous show at Oaks, it was the first time I had been to a show since I was a teenager 20 years ago, I was mostly there to get info about some Duke cabinet cards that I've had for a long time (Delehanty, Davis and Nash)...Most of the dealers were very helpful giving me information and asked to see the cards once I got them back from the onsite grading. I tried to be upfront and tell people I had no interest in selling them, but of course I would listen to offers just to see what they were worth (I already had an idea after checking auction results). Unfortunatley I think I may have offended 1 or 2 dealers by not taking their offers, I politely apologized for wasting their time and went on my way ... Anyway, I am going to try and attend again to work on some T206 team sets I am working on...

So far, I have contacted two dozen Philly (Ft Washington, Reading & Valley Forge) show regulars.
that said they definitely will be at Oaks next weekend. Not a big crowd yet, but it's a start.

So, you and I won't be the only ones there....ole buddy.

I will continue to make Tel. calls and/or emails to motivate others to attend.

I always enjoy the McKee-Wonka show, but family duty calls this week-end and I won't be able to attend. Ted and Ken Cohen--Try and keep Dan from under Wonka's new car! BTW, there's an ugly rumor circulating that Wonka and McKee are now buying mid-grade shiny stuff from the 1990s. Ouch.

Have fun guys,
Mike
