As of yesterday, We are a week out from another get together at MSM for the Philly Non-Sport show. Time to get a body count, I plan on being there Sat. But like the spring show, I won't be able to stay overnight. For those able to come, I'm in need of ans singles from 6 and 9 and a few empty gravity feed boxes. Thank you for any help, Mark (Shoe).

You know I'll be there Saturday bright and early.
-
My Son's collegiate Soccer games in Troy NY on Fri and Sat trump Wackies. Have fun.

I'll be there Saturday and Sunday. The pack run is on its way to a new home, but it's always fun to see everyone again.

Unfortunately, I can't attend. Really wish I could, as I have a lot of ANS singles and sets that I need to get out of the house. Also a huge box of extra PSA original series Wackys that I haven't been able to finish making a list of.
Have fun everybody!
-
I'll be there as a guest artist and will have all kinds of stuff available ( official sketches, psc, prints, comic covers, etc..not all Wacky though). I also plan on bringing my rejected Brokes candy corpse painting and my storyboard color drawings for the First Annual Wacky day comic book. Stop by and day hello!
-
I'm sorry to say I can't make it. I was talking to JFK about how us old timers should try to get together for the 50th Anniversary of Wackys for the Spring 2017 show. Have fun, I really miss hanging with Shoe, Freetoes, SoreMel and the rest of the gang!

Wish you could be there Cheryl, Let's really try hard to assemble you, JFK, myself, Brute 88, Pat, Elizabeth, Etc. In other words collectors that have been absent from this show entirely too long.

I don't know if the Topps booth at the Fall Allentown Show will reveal plans for the 2017 Topps Wacky Packages 50th. Anniversary - Maybe a set of the best 100 Wacky Packages of the past 50 years as voted by Wacky Packages fans, along with 20 never before released new entries?
-
I'll have these paintings from Neil Camera's Monsters series 11 available at the Philly show this weekend.

Topps isn't listed as having a table??? Might they not be there....quite possible unless the website is wrong...George will be there...
-
VERY SAD!
The CUSTOMERS .... NOT Topps has been keeping our gendre alive for decades...... They turn their backs on us.....
I would like to spray some Windhex on them and let Mr.Mean have a stern talking to them :-)
-
So, has anyone had any good finds? Sorry I couldn't be there :sad:
-
Well for the people who have bigger collections than me wouldn't say I picked up good finds but I got some wacky ads, diecuts, and OS. (Diecuts specifically non-repeats)
-
Also sorry to Mark S. for not having an updated ANS list for you. I was worried about the game plan. :]

I was looking for you at the show. I brought all my extras and was going to see if you needed any of them, but Shoemaker said you were gone.

Oh, sorry.

I couldn't find any of the dies I needed, but I had a happy buyer who needed the Toadal poster to help complete a set. I also picked up George's new Kreepy promo card, and saw some people I hadn't seen in a couple of years.
One seller had some Series 1's with "Andy" written on the back. That appealed to my sense of irony.

Were they solid near mint?

Lol, they looked decent otherwise. There was another that had "Paul" on the back, without the "Maul."
I once traced a kid who signed his name on a Mustard Charge. According to LinkedIn, he's now a contractor in the Rockaway area.

Have you tried using his Mustard Charge credit card number to make purchases? ;D

John, I had several dies with me, only found a new home for one of them. Maybe I can help, which ones you looking for? PM, if you prefer.
-

I picked up a few things, a 2nd ser. eraser set, a sealed flashback 1 box, a 2nd ser. U.K. puzzle piece(Which BTW if anyone on here can help me locate the other 8, I would appreciate that) And 1 of the dealers gave me a free jigsaw puzzle.

Spoiler Alert!!!!! Except for those of course that were at the show over the weekend that already know this info. For those who weren't able to make the spring show, You will definitely want to make plans to attend the spring show in "17". The dates for that show are the 22/23rd of April and some of the G.P.K. and Wacky artists will be attending this show, Amongst the artists that will be there is the one, the only, your friend and mine, NEIL CAMERA!!!!! Hope you don't mind all the build-up Neil-LOL.

Thanks Mark. I know what I'll be doing on 4/22/2017!

I used it to get a Cheddarwurst at Turkey Hill. This despite the fact that the numbers were in sequence, and it "expired" more than 40 years ago. I hope that clerk doesn't get fired.

rockaway as in NJ?
-
Yes. Correction: He works or worked for Allan Industries in Rockaway.

PM sent. Thanks, Tom.

Ha! Yes, it's true Mark! And thanks for that very grand announcement! I'm blushing.
In all seriousness, the 2017 Allentown show represents a lot more than just another show to me. It's a culmination of 50 years of the Wacky Packages brand, the art, the humor, and most of all the loyal fans. In fact, I've known many of you for a long, long time (30 years in some cases) but I've met very few in person, so this show will have special significance for me. And in all honesty, it's likely to be my one and only appearance there, so I hope many of you can make it. To me, that's the most meaningful way to celebrate a 50th Anniversary!
-
Sounds like a Wacky Party to me ;) See you there Neil! Glad you could attend.
Andrew
-
Yeah hopefully I'll get to meet you Neil, just met Jason Brower! Cool guy.
-
I'll save the date and definitely should be there!
Nothing can top my experience in Vegas meeting a lot of you for the first time,
but it should be just as incredible!
And a few thousand miles less to travel!
-
Great to hear you'll be there Paul! This show might even rival the Vegas show, especially for Wacky fans!

I hope the pinball convention is that weekend too as if so, I am almost certain to come out.
-
Man I would love to go but I'm afraid the trip from Cali is just too much. I hope those that go will keep us West Coasters in mind and grab extras of any Wacky 50th related goodness!
-
I'll be at the 2017 show! Looking forward to it!!!

Since the cat is outta the bag, here's a flyer distributed at the show announcing all these fab folks:

Sorry to say I can't go but I will be there in spirit. Take plenty of pictures.

Too bad Jay said he wasn't doing shows anymore. It would be great if he was there also. I am going to try to make the 788 mile trip again in the spring

I was surprised that you and Linda weren't at this recent one, I'm really looking forward to the spring show.

The Spring show looks like a bust for me. IT is the weekend on the back end of spring break for my kids school. I think it was a bad idea for them to move show so early in April as opposed to May as I bet many will have other plans and I bet many schools have spring break the week after Easter.

With all of these great artists attending this show; I think it should be sub-titled "Wacky / GPK SketchFest 2017"
I bet we see some pretty cool sketches and artwork for sale at this event.
-
I truly hope that I'll be able to attend on April 23rd.
-
I'll be there unless something unforseen arises.

Way to go Brian, April can't get here soon enough for me, If we can get Brute 88-Brian L. Hipton-Cheryl S, and even JFK, Andy Herrmann, John Kosturik, etc. We will definitely have the definitive line-up of the best Wacky collectors on this planet.
-
I already have my hotel reservations, so I'm hoping to attend this year. It's probably been 20 years since the last one I attended. I ran into Ernie at a MAC machine getting cash. I didn't know who he was at the time.

You going to be there both days? I could possibly make it on Sunday as I return from vacation on Saturday.

I hadn't really thought about what days. I made hotel reservations for Thursday through Sunday. It would be nice to see the old* gang again.
* As in we're in our 50s!
-
Yup, most of us are in our 50's. I will be at the show in April also
-
Can someone post the details and hotel stuff - very interested in attending
