@coach joe posted:Rich that was a steal even back then. Was it a local show or one of the big ones. I used to love going to the big one at the church in Elmont, I can't believe I'm drawing a blank on the name, and some of the big travelling shows used to roll through at Hofstra or Stony Brook.
I know it wasn’t one of the big shows. There was a series of shows on Sundays during the winter in the early 1980’s, if I remember correctly, at various American Legion, Elks or Moose lodges. Some were in Nassau but more were in Suffolk. Unfortunately, I didn’t keep track of the shows or date when I made my purchases, just the model and price. Those shows were good times, I certainly do miss those types of shows and those prices.
