Baltimore Whitman Show Visit List

I'm getting my ducks in order for the Baltimore Whitman show.
Less than 2 weeks to go.

Besides my wantlist I'm also putting together a "visit" list.
The only dealer from in here that I know will be there is The Penny Lady.
Any other dealers from in here (I know the Lost Dutchman won't be there)?

And is there anything planned for the buyers to get together to say hello?

I'll do my usual.
I arrive on Fridays at the opening hour (10:00AM).
How long I stay depends upon what's happening.

Hope to see some of you there.

Lousy time of year for a coin show for me and probably many others. Just got my property tax bill. Went up 20%. Auto insurance also do on 5 cars. And naturally now getting hit with gas, water, phone, electric bills all on the first of the Month. With Xmas coming, coin shows are not high on my list. Sure wish I could go though.

The Baltimore shows always seem to do well.
The Philly show was so-so, but since that was the first one there, no real history to make an analysis.
The one in So. Calif. apparently was close to a bust.
I'm also probably going to try the FUN in Orlando in Jan. I'm told that it's a good one.
I'll try Nashville in May if the wife isn't travelling (and maybe even if she is).
I've been advised to skip the June(?)/July(?) FUN in West Palm.

But as you said, bills come first and that famous disease "Lackaloot" can really cut into one's discretionary spending.

Things have changed!! I had an airline credit to burn up. As of today I will be there on Friday the 13th (eek!). I fly in early in the morning and I have a departing flight in the evening. Just a quick in and out no table just walking the floor. I also booked my FUN tickets and hotel today so if anyone is there I'll be there for the entire show.

I would send a PM to Mark Feld, meet him at the show (if he's attending), and try and cherrypick his inventory before it gets sold.
