As this will be one of the premier shows in the country before the National, please report back on (1) attendance, and (2) sales and (3) interest. Is there an equal split between vintage and newer collectibles, as well as dealer booths focusing on vintage versus the last 30 years. Thanks.

It would not surprise me to see a handful of YouTube content creators posting video coverage.

That's all fine (must be a teacher, sounds like a homework assignment) , but let's see some photos. I want to believe shows are actually happening again and I'd like to see photographic proof!

I am heading to the show tomorrow morning before I head to the Yankees-Phillies game

Great to here!

A lot of people buying or selling or both?

[Aquarian Sports Cards]

didn't see a lot of great stuff walk in for sale. More buying.

of course it was from a similar vantage point (we are sharing a booth). The show was as packed as I've seen a show in a LONG time. Sales were great. 1 nice purchase and a couple of others being discussed. It was so busy, I didn't even get a chance to walk the room!!

One good thing from the show...I met Scott in person!

Seemed like above average crowds Friday and Saturday. My primary interest as 70’s and 80’s, without a doubt the COVID card craze caught and up was much more of a selection of these cards this time around. Seemed to be a larger crowd in their 30-40’s in my opinion, which makes sense..:great to see the renewed interest in the hobby from that demographic. Great to have the show back.

I was surprised to see more dealers selling modern cards compared to past shows. In the past, I remember most shows were 75/25 or 70/30 vintage vs modern. This show was more like 50/50…I made the comment to a few dealers and they all agreed…I did pick up a small 1952 T deal from Dave S at Baggers and a modern card from a local dealer.

Was there Friday starting about noon through 7 PM.

Dropped off consignments to REA and Huggins and Scott.

Nice to be back at a show. As others have said, some different dealers, mostly with newer cards ( not my cup of tea) but a few dealers did not show due to the date change and having made previous plans, or covid related concerns. Hope they return next time.

Had nice visits talking with Teddy Z and Dan McKee as well as Howard Chasser. Sat for awhile with Bob Warren and Jay Shumsky as they worked out their Exhibit deal!

Picked up a stack of Pittsburgh Exhibits for something new to chase. Anyone want to help me with my new quest?

I was at the show all day Saturday very busy finally cleared out some towards the end of the day the aisles were tight great to see many familiar faces. Picked up several exhibit baseball cards I needed plus did some damage on my Play Ball sets but really not the time to buy expensive cards. Best pick up for me was in a .50c box 1953 Radio and TV Stars with an overstruck 1953 Bowman football card on the back.
