PA show this weekend - Should I go?

[RJB44]

Hi - I was wondering what some of the members think about the PA show this weekend. I debating whether to make the drive up from Northern VA. Is it mostly cards and autographs, or is there a fair amount of game used items (jerseys, bats, etc). Thanks for your feedback. Will need to decide tonight if I am going to go up there. I am interested in game used items, as well as older yearbooks. Even If yo have been to it in the past, feedback welecomed?

Looks like any ole regular baseball card show I don't see anything saying about Game Used items

Although it's a huge show,there's not much in the way of game used.Maybe 1-3 dealers last time I went (last year),and mostly Phillies gear that they had.

I went in 2005 (from Italy it's a pretty long trip)...I collect cards and game used bats...there were really a lot of bats (10-12 dealers) and I came back home with a pair, there were also some nice jerseys (got an Eric Money Sixers jersey from 1979)

I go to every PA show, and to my recollection the only game used stuff I've ever seen there is on display by the auction companies.

If you are looking for game used items, do not drive that distance to attend this show. I was going to go this afternoon, but my brother is visiting so I had to stay home; otherwise, I would tell you what they have.

If I were you, I would attend that show in the middle of March in Virginia where they have all the people signing (I think it is in Chantilly). I wanted to attend that show for the Steelers players, but cannot due to work. I figured I will go to the Orioles Fanfest instead to see about game used items and maybe get some autographs as well.

mmh...probably you didn't attend the show in Fort Washington in september 2005...

I don't recall that specific show, but in the last 2 years I do not recall much at all in the way of game used. Did you setup at the 2005 show?
