The 2025 Fall has come and gone, and it was poorly attended by collectors and vendors. Last Spring we had many Pokemon vendors, this time only one or two. We had many empty tables and aisles were open.
But the hardcore collectors were there, some, like LovesMeSomeCards, had set up large displays of singles and xTime, as always, had a large array of old and new cards. I had worked out a pre-show deal with him and got some Look 'n See, Battlestar Gallactica Stickers and more.
Other dealers include Brian Schemine, Bill and Celeste from Looky Here Cards and Kevin from K&J Cards.
So good stuff was there. Paul Maiellairo had set in the hall with lots of singles, well organized too. I got 2 Treasure Chest of Art sketches from him - a nice color portrait of an angry Anikin by Allen Michael N. Cenota and a beautiful pencil drawing of a girl by pin-up artist Dave Nestler.
The next show is May 1 and 2, and will be under new management, so hopefully no more anemic shows like this one. But even so, it's good to see everyone!
