Thankfully, I've managed to squeeze the show into my schedule (I work in a seasonal business in my "real" job which is hell). I'll have a table full of $5 comics that are worth up to $50. $1 comics worth about $5 each... along with a 50% off wall and cool stuff like vintage 1970's con sketches... an Elvis negative (with contact print), and an autographed George Harrison photo.

 

Mention that you saw this post and I'll give you a free comic from my $5 table!

 

I'll be wearing the black shirt and paisley tie.

Best attended Philly monthly show in a very long time. Picked up some high grade BA white pagers from Gary Platt, and some near mint Treasuries with amazingly bright covers and paper from Al Stoltz. Also pleasantly surprised that Paul/Silverandbronze set up with cool Toon Tumblers and magnets that I hadn't seen before.

Had a great show show today! Thanks Derek! Sold the art and Elvis negative within the 1st hour. ( I still have that George Harrison autograph...)

 

Nice to meet Brother J. Enjoy the book! I sold tons of $5 comics before you got there... I'm sure you would have found something else earlier.
