I would still attend but only to say hello and can you lend me a couple dollars to buy gas to get home. I can remember attending this show at the following locations.

Geeseytown Fire Hall

Railroad Museum

East Freedom Fire Hall

Altoona Armory

Pinecroft Fire Hall

Altoona Convention Center

 

 

I always loved this show because the people that attended it were very friendly.

Hi Jimmy,

 

I might have bought something from you that day.  But I didn't know you then as that was before you became famous thanks to the OGR Forum and the Internet! 

 

I do remember buying some Plasticville from a guy from Ebensburg who had several tables full of Plasticville.
