Brady I actually posted this here first since. This is the only news I have of a show at this point. If it bothers you so much ask Julie to delete the comment.
Fast Eddie booked this over the Summer. After the Lango family talking about it last year and not organizing it he locked it up.
The dealers that attend his other shows committed to it. I will be there myself.
Here is the updated list. We have more that have contacted for tables. But space is running out!
Will update in a 2-3 weeks.

So we had some complainers........
This list is of who has "paid" and "confirmed" amount of tables. T
Several others have sent in contracts but have not "paid" yet. Either because of special circumstances or that we have not de termined location and amount of tables yet. This includes Treefrog...
At this point we are filling the group up daily. When it gets full the hotel has been adding rooms. Sometimes it is just King rooms available.
Keep trying....when it gets full it will open up again!
We are over 600 room nights and we will continue to fill up the hotel!

I am back from vacation and decided to attend the show last minute. Some of my customers were requesting I go and I got a box for Tommy boy!
I plan to visit a big collection on the way down and hit all the CT diners with Joe "Suspenders."
If you want anything brought to the show please email...
We filled the block up again and we have about 500 room nights booked! More rooms have been added!
Several Brits said the applied for Visas to come over when I was the London Show!
After the show Joe and I got together with Blake (Thomas Gunn) and Sven (Last Post/Peter Nathan TS) and had quite a few points! This pub is a 2 minute walk from the Haverstock school.
I posted a few pics over at the Chicago Show facebook page.

These pictures are accurate as far as dealers go. The crowd was pretty good at times. These pictures were certainly mostly from later in the day. I see myself over at the Tommy...
I am back in the USA after 5 nights in London.
I agree that the attendance and vendors were down. It is the same problem we have in the US. As sales slow and attendance goes down the vendors then fall off. Then when the show becomes slower less people show up. I see no winning formula. I...
We are getting a huge response from dealers and it the show will be a sellout.
We will have a ballroom with about 125 tables.
A second ballroom tent with 70 tables (heat and A/C and covered walkway.)
and a hallway with about 50 tables.
I will also have 2 smaller meeting rooms on the lower...
