Also Schriner's has a great show in Mass. once a year. I believe that's in November also but I can't find a link.

Where do you live? One promoter who does big shows is TRISTAR. I went to a show in Houston - thought it was just OK - some are better than others.
Also, try the Beckett Show Calendar. I usually check the back of a current Beckett or SCD.
If you are from the northeast, the EPSCC is considered the "premier" regular show around - a lot of great vintage and big dealers along with grading companies on site.
Hope this is a good start.

Ya gotta put in the city you want in the Beckett site e.g. I'm clueless where you live - when you enter the city and month - e.g. I entered San Antonio and I got results like this one:
Jun 3-5 - San Antonio Live Oak Civic Center, F 4-7 Sa-Su 10-5, 100T, a:$5.00 - Larry Dluhy 713-721-0075 spocoho@SportsCollectiblesNet.com
The 100T means 100 tables and they charge 5 bucks to get in - which BTW is outrageous for a local monthly type show IMO!
