Shriner's Massachusetts card show in Nov. Anyone go?

Hello, does anyone from the Northeast go to this show. It would be my first time, and would like to get an idea if it's worth the 90 minute drive. I'd be looking for raw/graded cards from the late sixties to fill sets, or complete sets from the seventies.

Thanks for any info.

    I will be there, I have met up with more than a few members of the board out there too. A greta show. I go friday at 11:30 and wait for the doors to open. Some nice raw stuff at a few of the tables, Mr. mint's attitude, and Levi's CASE of 52 Mantle's is worth the trip IMO!
  • Best show in Ma. hands down. You want to go.
  • OK...thanks for the replies. One vintage dealer at a local show told me it was good, but I wanted to get other opinions. Unfortunately I will have to wait until Sat. morning.

    Thanks again.

    No problem.....It is probably the only show left in Massachusetts that is still worth going to. Back before ebay, it was THE show to go to every year. I'll be there on Friday standing in line at 11:30 as well with my dad.

    I know PSA will be at this show, so my question is can I bring an autographed baseball to be graded or do they only accept cards at shows?
  • PSA/DNA will be there on site to grade balls and other items...

    watch out walking past Mr. Mint 1st though....he'll try to get that ball from you!! lol
