Not so sure my set promo will save the day, but it's most likely going to cause some controversy!  8)

Part of the alleged controversy has put a crunch on my promo card production ~ If they do not make it to the attendee admission promo card packs, I will have them at my table.

Sketches may be a bit much LOL! I still owe some forum members sketches from the 2012 & 2013 shows! >( (I do plan on honoring ALL of them!)

Hey George!

Glad you're well, and I'm going to have to kidnap Lavirus and make it down
to a Philly show one of these years!

And I'm determined to get down to the Cape this summer and pay a visit!

Thanks,
Paul H.

Hi Paul!

That would be great to have a Wacky get together on the Cape! You guys are always welcome! The only rule at my house is that we only discuss, trade  or show original 1-16 series Wacky Packages! (remember Andy's!)

It would definitely be fun to see you make it to a Philly show! The Wacky contingent seems to be one of the more organized and faithful of the niche interest groups that show up, so the more the Wackier!

I wouldn't think a dinner would have any items associated with it.
Oh, I don't know...I'd suspect food is associated with it. :)

If some new collectors attend the dinner, wouldn't they be considered entrée-level collectors?

Haha, you'd HAVE to kidnap me these days - with 3 kids, my spring calendar is packed with their activities!

But I'll join you on a Cape jaunt sometime!

In the meantime, I hope someone gets extra Wacky promos from the upcoming show.

I also noticed Topps wasn't setting up at the show.  However I did notice they were a sponsor of the dinner.

If you can't come to the Wackys, the Wackys will come to you! (watch out, Paul and I may just show up at your front door! :o)

Agreed! We are long overdue for a good old fashioned northeast original series collector gathering! Let's start listing potential dates and work from there!

Did the recent Spring Allentown Non-Sport Card show feature any upcoming Wacky Packages promo card related stuff (regarding Wacky Packages chrome, Wacky Packages Star Wars edition, Wacky Packages OS5, and/or Maybe Wacky Packages 2014-2015 a//k/a ANS12)?

There was a Galactic Groceries promo of "Sleepios". Not sure if this is considered wacky or not.

What is GALACTIC GROCERIES? A spin-off of Cereal Killers?

Other than taking almost a half hr. or more getting to the hotel that Campy, George, and I were staying at from where Cheryl & Mike were staying at, I had a very good time at the show, I was able to pick up binders 1-4 from Marc S. a nice asst of original Wacky checklists, a near complete set of original 11th series (Of which I only need 4 to finish it) Along with the 4 binders I got from Marc. I was also able to acquire a massive quantity of the puzzle pieces that have the binder artwork (BTW for those of you that can help me, I can use 12th/13th puzzles & singles also from them). Besides myself, Also in attendance were the following:

Kook, Duck/Hide, Paul Maul, J Leonard & Linda, Char Boy, Battle Caps, Hipton, Buzzooka, Freetoes, Hustler 08, Bigtomi, Quas, Soremel, Slamjim, and Campy. Those not able to attend due to other commitments were Band-Aches, Brute 88, Monsterettes, Playbug, and Raw Goo, Hope all of you can make the fall show which is scheduled for Oct 18th/19th.




Yes young lady, You need to get to PA. in 3 weeks.

I believe a promo for the upcoming Marvel Masterpieces by Joe Jusko was given out at the show.  Any chance anyone out there has an extra they'd be willing to trade or sell?  Thanks!

I would be down with that. I will have to find the card you are talking about. I could use a #40 blue boarder ANS series 10 if you have it. If not there is plenty of other stuff I can use.
