    What most of you don't know.....is the 3 people on this medal are actually Alan,Mike Dixon , and Bill Knuckles . The first show they decided to have a old time photo dressed as civil war generals . The photo was also used on a Bill Board on one of the major roads leading into Gettysburg .

    A side note looks like Mike has put a few pounds on in the medal....shown......maybe I should cut back the Chocolate cookies next show!:stop:

    I've been wanting to take a business trip back east, I'd love to set up at one of the big show's. I'm sure there are usually a few tables with photographers though. :)

    Usually the only photographer onsite at a show is if Todd is there; he dominates the field so completely that few others bother. I think @messydesk does shows occasionally, as well.

    I figured Todd was usually at those show's. I don't think I would attempt to compete with him without doing regional show's first. As you said, he's pretty much the guy at the big national show's. Maybe someday. :)

    There are no photographers set up at the Gettysburg show. The only thing close is some guy selling Dino-Lite microscopes ;)
