    Website for the shows sponsor is: www.csashows.com

    The sponsor is Collector's Showcase of America, they do the Richmond, Chantilly, and Raleigh, NC shows in each place at least twice each year. Richmond used to be the old Tuff Stuff shows, which sold out two years ago.

    I grew up in Richmond, used to go to the shows at the fairground all the time. How are they these days? Is it worth a 5 hour trip each way?

    Just a side note, I grew up 10 minutes from the little card shop that started tuff stuff. It's always funny to me to see how big it has gotten. I remember when it was a 3 page newsletter. Got some nice stuff from the classifieds as a 10 year old kid.

    I was at the one last December and it was pretty dead as far as people go but I thought that there was pretty many dealers there. However, I do not know if I would tell you to drive 5 hours each way though. But if you also like autographs it may be worth it in that capacity.

    Steve, I'll be there. What day will you be going? Please allow me to take you out to eat.

    As far as the show, it gets smaller and smaller each year. You can pretty much see everything in a couple of hours. I wouldn't drive 5 hours for it, but I am sure that some do. Usually 707 hold down the largest space right at the entrance, but the show is not listed on his website this year.

    This year, though, they have some great autographs lined up. Joe Theisman, Gino Marchetti, John Mackay, Whitey Ford, Bobby Richardson, Bob Turley, Don LArsen are the bigger names.

    I have never gotten autos, so maybe someone can help me out. They list the following for autograph opportunities.

    Baseball/Flats up to 11x14 $50
    Flats larger than 11x14 & Mini-helmets $60
     Premiums $75
    Inscription $15

    What do those different things mean? Thanks in advance.

    Buckwheat,

    I haven't yet decided on Sat or Sunday, the latter being more attractive because o/t autopgraph guests. I'll figure out my sked and send you a PM before midweek.

    The auto sked listed in your message is roughly this: baseballs and photos up to 11x14 are $50, larger photos and mini helmets are the $60 items, and unless otherwise specified, "premiums" are bats, gloves, and other larger stuff. Inscriptions usually are an extra charge for "HOF XXX" and the like.
