chrisco37 Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Hey Dan...I know it's early, but do you know if Marc is going to go back to the "old" room next year or will he keep it in this one? Is it up to him or the Convention Center (availability)? I know when I saw you, we talked briefly about the room/space. I like this room better than the one it's been in the past 5-10 years.

If they re-stocked...woah, that's a lotta books they've got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each row is eight feet wide. I haven't been in a couple few years, but the last time yor booth was definitely a highlight for me... I spent almost all my cash the first morning there at your set-up.

lordbyroncomics Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 (edited) The lines stretching around weren't even to get in precisely- they were for Covid tests to see if they *could* get in. That's why most of Saturday didn't feel that crowded. Edited October 27, 2021 by wisbyron don't mean to post links Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordbyroncomics Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Here are some screenshots from some fly-on-the-wall type footage I shot for a video of the show; I think it gives some more context to how ridiculously long the line was; it went up over a block and wrapped around to where I initially thought there were two lines for different things. ttfitz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The crowds did seem pretty light but the people that were there seem to be buying books and I didn't see many people in the artist area. I hope Nick is doing ok since his booth was empty on Friday. I heard he may be having some family issues so my fingers are crossed it gets resolved since he is a great guy. I was set up beside Nick's booth and was worried about him. I contacted him to see if he was okay. He and family are doing fine, he said he didn't sign up for the show at all! I told him about the booth and he said he would make sure he wasn't charged. 1Cool 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping the lighting would be better in the hall this year, but it was the same as the other room. One guy thought for some reason I was photographing his book for sale when I had out my flashlight app on the phone to look at spine creasing, but a quick explanation took care of that.

Nope - I think I'm done going to Cons for the year. The last few weeks have been pretty crazy with all the comic buying so now I have to concentrate on comic selling Hope you guys have a great show! jimjum12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were screwed if you had a booth at the one end. They were all dark. One guy handed me a flashlight to take a better look. And as usual, trying to figure out actual booth numbers was agonizing.

The upside about that space is that it's a block and a half or so closer to Pratt St. Ale House. jimjum12 and greggy 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
