I have attended this show for the past 6 or 7 years. It normally is a decent show, but is smaller than the Fort Washington Show. National dealers like Terry Knouse make it a very good show. However, last year was an off year. Hopefully this year will be better. |

I'll be there too. Looking forward to it. I was there three years ago when I wasn't nearly as interested in vintage cards as I am now. I'm hoping there are some different dealers there than at the National...and the ones that are the same, I hope they've picked up some good stuff. |

Anyone else end up attending this show? I thought it was pretty great overall with a wide variery of material to chose from. Quite a bit of pre-war cards and emphera to satisfy many interests. This was my first fairly large scale show as I've only been collecting for a couple of years now. |

I also went to the show on Sunday with a couple of friends. Easily the most pre-war material I`ve seen at one time. Had a chance to see first hand examples of the many cards talked about on this site. overall, a very good time but just too short too see all there was to see! |

I was a bit disappointed there weren't more stuff I was interested in, but it was nice to browse a little bit. It seems many of the dealers were at the National, and it seems with similar or the same stuff, so it wasn't nearly as interesting as the National was for me. |

Scott was located in maybe the second or third row to the left of the center isle as you entered the floor. He had a great early Red Sox pennant and many photos. I didn't see any cards at his table though. He was just around the corner from a fellow in the center isle who had a straw babe ruth hat, dated 1915 red sox razor and incredible 1903 season ticket for the boston americans priced at $15,000. |

the show on Friday, spent about 4 hours there, which clearly was not enough time. I wanted to check out the table of the guy with the Ramlys at the center of the right wall, but time ran out before I could reach him. I bought a lot of 30s - 50s cards from a dealer from CO who was great. |

If someone is going to organize something, I'd be interested. I'm too lazy to do the legwork though, hopefully there is someone interested in doing it. My email is: cmoking@yahoo.com |

Like I mentioned before, I'm really new to collecting sports memorabilia but have been bitten by the bug pretty bad. I believe the show was sponsored by the Greater Boston Sports Collecting Club, or something to that effect, which meets monthly. I have the application to join it at home. I don't have the website on this computer but can get it. That might be a place to hook up. I too thought the show was great and remember that fellow on the right wall -- problem is the wallet ran dry. I've been collecting pre-war Beer advertsing for years and there are a few clubs in the area where folks meet up. It would be great if there was something for sports collecting as well. |

Dave, this sounds like it could be fun if there were enough people interested. |

You're in Needham, right? I am trying to figure out a central location for all of us. Does Taunton sound good? It is about 25 minutes from me, 25 minutes from Milton, Needham, Providence (maybe a few minutes more)..., etc... |

Dave, I'm actually in Glocester, RI. Not really all that far away from any of the towns you mention. Just off Route 295 off 95. |
