Chicago Non-Sport Card Show Friday April 19: 3PM to 7PM Saturday April 20: 9AM to 3PM
We have our first Guest Announcement:
Dan Gorman will be joining us in April! Dan is no stranger to trading cards, having done work for almost every manufacturer currently producing sketch cards. This includes 5FINITY, Breygent, Cryptozoic, Cult Stuff, Frank Eachus Publishing, Galen's Sketch Cards, Marty & Boo's Cards, Rittenhouse, Unstoppable Cards, Upper Deck, Viceroy Cards, and his newest gig: sports card sketches for Leaf Trading Card's 2013 Best of Hockey set. Dan will have original art and prints available. Click on the images on the left to go to his site. You might think about having Dan do something for you to pick up at the show. That way you'll be sure to get what you are looking for!
Hello All! I will be here on Friday only. I will have the Treasure Chest of Art project, including new packaging size- of a 3 card mini-master! Affordable for everyone! Can't wait to see everyone! I will be representing the Pediatric Oncolgy Treasure Chest Foundation at the show and will be accepting card and new toy donations. Thanks again and take care, Paul

You had me at "bar on site"! I'm hoping to make this my first show since it's only a 4 hour drive. It's looking good so far!

The kids and I will be coming on Friday. Can't wait!
We have our first EXCLUSIVE promo card in hand thanks to Marty and Boo Cards.
Like normal, one per person per day. Dealers at the show will get one per table. So check out the dealer list online if you don't have a trading partner going to the show both days.
I think dealers should get a promo per day they attend -- just like collectors. . .

Just received promos from Largo Intergalactic ViE for the "The E-Mail" set. Not exclusive to the show, but still very cool. They are promos P1, P2, P3, P4, and P3.
They will be inserted at a rate of 2-3 per promo packet as there are not enough to put all 5 in each (There are only 50 or so P1's).
Pictures are on the website in the "Our Supporters" section!
Not to critize or discourage you, but those cards are probably eight years old. I wrote about The E-Mail set in Aug. 2005. If the cards in your hand are new(er), I'd be very surprised because I never since heard from the guy who dreamed them up.

Very cool, I was wondering what happened to that company!

I don't discourage easily...
Yes, the cards have a copyright date of 2004. So they are actually 9 years old. But, I'd never seen them in person or ever had any in my promo book so they weren't widely distributed.
Apparently they are making a new push as they contacted me and wanted to send me cards. I'll never say no to that. I'll support them for supporting us. Hopefully something new comes from them and we'll have even newer stuff in the future.
