    Sorry if I had to "bump" this thread, but since it is sort of buried among others, I thought I would bring it to the attention of those interested (especially those from Central & Southern Illinois, SW Indiana, Western Kentucky, and SE Missouri (including St Louis.)

    My last show had a pretty decent turnout, and I am sure this show will too. For this show I gained quite a few dealers and invited the local club to set up a table. And speaking of tables, I have some left for those interested - $35 for the first one, $30 for each additional one. If interested, PM me.

    And for those from the Chicago area, I am reviving the coin show in the Kankakee area (after an 11 year hiatus). Mark your calendars for Sunday, March 15, 2009 - that is when this new show will be held. And I am also selling tables for that show - $40 for the first table, $35 for each additional. If anyone is interested in that show, PM me.

    And for those from the Chicago area, I am reviving the coin show in Bradley (Kankakee area) after an 11 year hiatus. For those who are geographically-challenged (yes, these people really do exist), Bradley is 30 minutes away from the south suburbs of Chicago along I-57. Now mark your calendars for Sunday, March 15, 2009 - that is when this new show will be held. And I am also selling tables for that show - $40 for the first table, $35 for each additional. If anyone is interested in that show, PM me or go to my webiste. >>



    Needed to image this thread at least one more time for those with short memories (or those who have a really bad case of "sometimers"), so please, please don't moan, groan, or whine, or throw rotten tomatoes or eggs or bad widgets at me. A good show promoter has to really work his hump off to make a show, whether club-sponsored or commercial, successful (as the majority of those here in these forums know.)

    That's down by St. Louis, this really isn't Illinois at all!!!
    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    Close, Your Madness, but no cigar (not a fat Havana one, anyways). Its actually 1 hour and 15 minutes from downtown St. Louis (in the middle of southern Illinois where I-57 meets I-64), and roughly that same distance from Evansville, Indiana. In fact, I have quite a few dealers from Indiana who set up, I do have some from the St Louis area as well.
