186 posts in this topic

I have a question for anyone that has been there before.

 

If I want to visit Geppi's Entertainment Museum while I am in Baltomore, how much time should I plan on spending there if I want to see most of it?

 

Thanks in advance.

I ebb and flow in my collecting interests, but I am a bronze boy at heart. The artists of that era were really doing some spectacular work. It will be a little painful to part with some of the books I'm processing.

 

Here is a cool Cardy horror cover, a Buckler/Sinnott Thing vs. Hulk and a Kane bronze age owl cover :D

I am only going to be able to come on Saturday but I would really like to stop by and say hello to all of you. To help me keep track of who is who and where I am trying to make a "visit list", so far here is what I have.

 

G.A.Tor Booth 1104-1105

Nikelspot Booth 615

FlyingDonut Booth 918-1218

 

If any other dealers are setting up please let me know so I can add them to the list, I am sure there are other boardies who would love to say hi as well, maybe we could start doing this for all of the big Cons? Looking forward to spending some money with you all!

AMAZING MYSTERY FUNNIES V.2 #12 and #19 are the ones I will have for sure. I'll have to check my other boxes to see if I have others that will make the trip.

Depends on how much you're interested in non-comic stuff. You can probably get through the comics in about an hour, and then about that much more with the toys, sci-fi, "pop culture" stuff.

 

I went last year and was a bit disappointed that none of the comics had any real context or explanation. I gave a pretty good tour to my wife, because I could explain the larger historical significance of Youngblood 1, Hulk 102, and House of Secrets 92 to the larger comics world.

Joey thinks he knows last minute.

 

Amateur. Van rented and packed, hotel reservations made, 1600 Toon Tumblers made and shipped, flight home for Sat. booked, all within the last 48 hrs.

 

One last piece of the puzzle needed--anyone interested in working on Sat.? Perks include pay and a pass. LMK.

Neither of you know last minute. I'm running a multi-billion dollar proposal at The Real Job. I'll pack up my stuff to take to the show Friday morning at about 5 AM.
