Pre-wedding duties mean I can't make this one; good luck to those that do. I usually find a few gems at these shows even if you see a lot of familiar faces each time.

 

Is there a (semi-) local show on March 15th? I wrote down that date for a show a while ago but can't seem to find more info.

Did anyone go?

 

I did. I was pretty disappointed with the selection. Lots of $5 books on people's walls. Best book I saw was a Strange Tales 3.0 with a $1500 asking price. Also saw an Avengers 1 with the entire bottom right corner chewed through the book for $650. Lots of sellers with disorganized and dirty boxes. It seemed pretty crowded though. 1 seller I spoke with said he was doing well. I'm unlikely to bother going next time unless I find another collection to flip.

No question that Razor had the best selection of key books.

 

There was a guy who had a lot of golden age books forgot to take a pic

 

Unfortunately the condition on his books was really rough and the prices were high. I talked with him for a while and it was his personal collection.
