H_ToserAt the upcoming Philly Non-Sports Card Show (taking place in just two weeks on April 7 & 8), we’ll be selling a 9-card set called “Philly Phavorites” lampooning your favorite television series and featuring art by John Brewer, Neil Camera, Joe Simko, Fred Wheaton, Dennis Willman, George Wright, and Jeff Zapata. Each set includes a two-card metal puzzle by Brent Engstrom and you’ll find randomly-inserted autograph cards from the artists. Only 200 sets will be sold and the SRP is $22.
The art is really terrific and you can see many of the cards below.

Great looking set.
If anyone wants me to pick up a set for them and bring it to Chicago the following week, drop me an email (
scificards@gmail.com) and we'll work out the details.
As always, if available since the set is limited.

Check the forecast again Debbie. The snow is now gone from the forecast. The storm must be tracking South. Might change again tomorrow but it has gone from 100 percent to 20 percent overnight and from 3 to 5 inches to like nothing.

FRANK AMICODon't mean to scare anyone away. Hope the new forecast holds true as it takes me about 90 minutes to get there and I don't want myself or others to be in bad driving conditions. Looks like everything will be OK for both days.

I wish you could be as well. Hopefully, you'll be able to come to the Fall show. I'm sure Eileen and I will raise a root beer float to you Saturday night!

H_ToserYes, we’ll definitely miss you Curler. Hope to see you here soon.

DeenaI also had a great day at the show (promos, prizes, crossing off a few things hard-to-find items from my want list, and catching up with great people!). The day was topped off by opening a box of Orphan Black Season 1 cards at Red Robin and pulling a beautiful black printing plate. It was the end of a wonderful day! I'm looking forward to another day at the show today.
