How is the acquisition of NSU by Beckett going to impact the non-sport trading card landscape? I hope it's still covered in a collector friendly way.

Krysten67~ It was posted here at the same time it was posted on Facebook (a few minutes earlier, actually) in the thread that "Heroes for Hire" linked in the post above.

Will This effect the Philly Non-Sports Card Show?

Is this the Last One?

The Philly Non-Sports Card Show was not a part of the sale and the Tosers will continue to run the show on a twice yearly basis. The next show will be on May 14 and 15 at the Merchants Square Mall in Allentown. They hope to see many of us there.

Yes, exactly as chesspieceface says. The Philly Non-Sports Card Show is unaffected by the sale. The Tosers have retained the show and 'the show will go on'. Next show is May 14 & 15 at the Merchants Square Mall. Looking forward to it.

It's bittersweet news. We all are going to miss the Tosers doing the magazine, but it's a full time job and they rightfully want a chance to do some other things in their golden years. It's a shame we're so spread out that we can't have a giant retirement party for them. As the magazine continues on, we'll always look back with special fondness at the earlier Camelot years!

I suspect there may well be some toasting going on in the Red Robin during the Philly Show in May - I for one will be raising a glass to the Toser family!
Au Res.,

Thanks to the Toser Family for all the hard work over the years... Hopefully the tradition will continue with Beckett leading the way now.

Glad to see Harris is still involved.

Good Luck!

Is it too early to inquire what will become of Card Talk?
