I just heard about this one day show last week.

 

Mike Carbo’s New York Comic Book Marketplace

Saturday, Feb 27, 2010

The State Armory, 69 Lexington Avenue, New York, NY

 

 

Been to the armory before, but not for a comic show. I'll likely attend this one...

Agreed.

 

It's a nice one day show but not worth a 5 hour drive.

Let me offer a slightly different opinion. While 5 hours is a long way to drive, if you are a serious vintage collector I think it may be worth it.

 

The last one day show Carbonaro put on in June was a huge success and had a number of dealers.

 

This is an opportunity to see several major dealers after literally months off from the convention scene. It's a slightly shorter drive for me (4 hours) but I am most certainly making the trip.

If you are seriously thinking of going, take the Chinatown bus. It will cut down on your expenses and wear and tear on your car, plus gas. Ergo more money to spend on comics, round-trip should set you back about $20 or so.
