for a quick two day romp and staying at the doubletree (Tuesday-Thursday). It was this or the Antique Advertising show - I chose the cheaper route as I don't find much in Chicago

. My friend and sometimes tablemate Glenn Mechanic along with his new bride will be setup with some good early sports and non-sports - expect to find me there or wandering the floor pressing the flesh or moaning about my sore feet from walking on dat hard floor. Mostly I'm gonna get some grading done. I have a T3 I was afraid to send in the mail and I guess I'll get me "x" indians entombed. My hope is that I'll find at least one of the cards I'm missing for important sets but hope springs eternal.... One of 5 missing N43's, my missing N184 Kimball, or perhaps a sepia indian or black to fill a gap. Maybe even a Between the Acts pedestrian???? A crumb. A morsel...........
