Yes yes, I heard it overflowed with vendors... but did anything sell..
and did the weather hamper it or the show on sun..
I couldn't make it either. Not enough inventoryto sell to make the trip..
Hope for a good report |

The attendance in Anaheim was way down. Good if you were there, less competition for swap items and short food and beer lines; bad if you wanted to see a lot of Porsches. The drizzle/light rain drove off all of the Speedsters/Roadsters and a lot of other cool cars. Oh well, we needed the rain and there's always next year.  |

Hershey is supposed to be April 19, but with all the snow we have been getting They may have to push it back to June or July!
I remember being there once when it didn't rain. Oh wait, maybe that was for the antique car show in the fall.....

| It drizzled off and on out here Sunday and attendance looked to be off by 2/3. I was parked in the back of the courtyard and had clear sailing leaving. Normally at least 3 cars would be parked in front of me. That's how low the turnout was. Can't speak for the open houses, it was outright raining Friday so I stayed home and off the roads. I hope we have better luck next year. |

I visited the LA Lit and Toy Show for the 10th consecutive time this year. Once again it was just great to be there.
