    I'm sorry to say I don't know a thing about that show; I didn't know he was going to be there until you said so, I only recognized him from the picture you posted. :panda:

    Ah ok then.
    @MichaelDixon Could you provide anymore additional information? Are there any other events happening at the show? Who are the prominent dealers that are attending?

    Best pizza ever! I could go on endlessly about Gettysburg, very special place to me. Anything specifically you want to know, just give me a shout.

    Another awesome place to visit is Dobbin House Tavern, they dress in period clothing and it really gives me the feeling that I'm eating in a late 1700's pub.

    Yes. It's quite nice. There're pics of it in the exonumia thread-somewhere.

    If anyone talks to Michael Dixon at the show could they ask him if he's related to George E. Dixon, Captain of the Hunley?

    Yes... do you know if James Getty is still doing his Lincoln bit? The last I saw him was about 25 years ago when he was performing, if I recall correctly, in a bookstore on Steinwehr Ave, but cannot recall the name of it.

    Are all the presentations going to be in a different room, or on the main bourse floor?
