I was able to stop by the Countryside Show for a short time today. Of course, there were many interesting items in many areas. I missed seeing everyone there and the show seemed a bit low in attendance, but always very cool things to see and many great automobile models in an assortment of scales. I actually picked up an item for $ 10 .... a 1/43 1936 Chrysler Airflow similiar to the one my Mom and Grandparents used to have.
When was this picture taken? If this was during the opening hours, this is a disaster.
Bob, this was taken about noon today at the hall.
Thanks for the pics, Mike.

You are welcome, John ! I missed seeing Forum members at the show, but I got a ride over there for a short while and I don't get around a lot right now. The spring show is usually the bigger one, I believe, in any case.
I heard from John Kuliak. It sounds like there was a very nice selection of 1/43 dealers. I wish we could have made it!

There were, as always, some really nice replica cars in different scales, John. I hope to be able to attend the bigger show in March in Countryside.
By that time, I hope to have won the Lottery so I can buy up to my heart's content ! I don't know what is taking so long to win.......
Regarding attendance, I asked Buz about that. I arrived at 11:30 for show starting at 10:00, which means I missed the early crowd. There were people leaving when I arrived, who had made purchases. Buz thought attendance was similar to last show, possibly a little less.
