Great turnout at the local Philly show today - guess the fine weather brought people out and about.

 

There wasn't an awful lot of new high grade SA and BA material in the room, but the show had an exceptional representation of board members, and a handful of excellent dealers. Had the pleasure of chatting with Foolkiller, Arzach42, Cobra Commander/SOT, Silver Rich, Red Fury, and Blazing Bob. Dealers spotted in the room included, in addition to the latter two, Dave Reynolds, Al Stoltz (who was buying only), Gary Platt, Marc Nathan and Gene Carpenter. Got to meet and chat for the very first time with serious SA collector Rube11.

 

This little monthly show continues to be a delight.

Hola to Foolkiller, namisgr, Rube11, and SOT.

 

Never bring any good books close to them, they have a sixth sense about what is in your box. lol.

 

It was great meeting all of you and really enjoyed the collecting tips and "screening" of my books.

 

Hasta,

Pablo

Pablo, good meeting you today. Bob, always a pleasure. :) Good to see John (SOT/CC) back on the East Coast too!

 

There was a good turnout at the show today, and a lot of nice books in the room. I picked some nice GA books for my stock, and one sweet book for my collection. This is one of my favorite Superman issues, the "angry" Superman cover. Superman doesn't like Nazis!
