I normally attend this show several times a year and I made the trip yesterday since I am only 30 miles away. I love
the bargain boxes at this show and always pick-up some super cheap stuff. Found a number of autograph cards for
$1.00 a piece, such as Roberto Alomar, Danny Ainge, and Drew Bledsoe. These are not autographs that come from the
manufacturer, but collected from fans. I know these are not fake (99% sure) since I know the dealer. I am a big Alomar fan so
I was in heaven. No major buys and also picked-up on some supplies. With this economy and gas prices, I figure I better play
it safe for the next few months.
I did see a few folks try to sell their collections. One guy had some vintage boxing (48 leaf) and just about gave that stuff
away. Man, the dealer made out big time. They looked super nice and will certainly be graded.

No, 3 or 4 times a year.
Dulles Expo Center, right?
