I can't make it...but some of my Byrne books will.

[mitol]

Mine too.

[ArAich]

Do you know if CGC is doing on-sight grading???...

 

...and who wants to get a sketch done for me by Byrne...I'll make it worth your while...

[Kevin Boyd]

No on-site grading. I don't think they have a booth for taking submissions either, if you go to the main CGC site and check the convention calendar you'll know for sure..

[ArAich]

So...does anybody want to get a sketch done for me???....

[ArAich]

[Kevin Boyd]

Is anybody going to this one?

[CGCMINT]

Oh well....

[Kevin Boyd]

I was supposed to go, but things didn't work out.

 

After two conventions this month (WWTexas and the NY National) I'm not that worried about missing it.

Is anyone going to the Mid-Ohio Con this year? How big is it?

[Buck Biggins]

I will be attending. This will be my first con ever so I'm excited.

[Pirate]

I will more than likely attend unless something comes up. It's a quick 3 hours for me

[thedude]

I will be going once again, I have gone the last two years... as for how big it is, it's held at the Hilton hotel up there in Easton Town Center in Columbus. I feel it's a fairly big size con, but nowhere near as big as Chicago or San Diego, the comic book dealers are all in one room which is in the center of the hotel lobby, and the outlying halls is where the artists, toy sellers, actors, guests, etc. are.

 

there are about 8-10 Golden/Silver Age dealers who set up there, Koops Comics is always there, and Dale Roberts Comics is always there as well.

 

it's a great con if your a Silver Age/Bronze Age collector, but if your a Golden Age collector (like me) it's kinda hit and miss, there are some nice books to be found however..but the selections aren't as plentiful as your bigger cons.

 

but I go every year, it's only an hour away for me, and it is getting bigger each year, with more and more guests.

 

hope this helps,

[Pirate]

if enough forum members go, we should meet up as i would like to meet some of you before Charlotte next year.

[jimm94]

I went for a day last year. It's an ok show, but many of the dealers seemed to price silver and gold very much on the high side of the scale. As I recall, spotty grading and missed resto seemed to be an issue with a few dealers as well.

 

As with any show, be an educated consumer in terms of who you are buying from, and be secure in your own grading/resto abilities if you spend a good chunk of change on raw books.

[LVCE-migration]

Any BIG names going to be at the show that the website hasn't listed yet? Missed the last 2 shows (Alan Davis, John Byrne were the guests of honor). Are they going to have a guest of honor? I would think they would try to hype it up some since it is the 25th anniversary.
