I haven't decided if I'll be setting up as a vendor yet or not, but I'll definitely be in attendance.  Any boardies that end up going, reach out before the show and we'll get some BBQ.

I am coming down with some folks I think.  Never been to Memphis so my friend who loves Memphis wants to spend some time on Beales St.

Beale is definitely worth checking out, and you'll miss the summer heat in October.

Less than a month away!  

For those on the fence, Memphis is a cool city.  Plenty of stuff to do, and good food to boot.

@lhcomics Hope to see you there again this year sir.  Bring some Golden Age stuff!  Your boy Doug (from Nashville/Paducah) is always bragging about your inventory.

Can't make it this year. Doug is a regular at my comic booth in the Antique Mall where I sell comics here in Paducah.

Will be there this weekend!!!

The only vendor I know for sure that will be there is Eric Meyer with STL Comics.  

Hoping to set up a commission with Kevin Nowlan and pick up some books.

Can anyone that is there tell me what the vendor selection looks like? I'm thinking of going tomorrow but It's about a 5 hour drive for me. Thanks

Sorry for the late response - not sure if you made it.  There were hardly any GA books at the show.  One vendor had a couple slabbed issues of Comic Calvalcade, but other than nothing really.   Saw a couple of nice keys and semi-key books.  There was  A LOT of discount book boxes that you could have dug in all day.   One gentlemen did set up with a nice collection of SA and BA books that belonged to a relative who passed.  He had bagged and boarded, price and organized the books and there were several deals to be had  if you dug.  I know a vendor who bought him out at the end of the show.  That said, it was really slow I guess on Sunday . . . . 

Hope that helps.
