Ok we have a little over a month to go.
I have some Questions.

How much more do mum and Dad need to cover the table costs?
Do they have enough inventory to keep a table stocked over the length of the show?
Do you need consigments mailed or brought to the show?
How is the stash of coins for the 'get kids hooked' are more needed?
Do the rules allow for the sale of exonumia?

I have never actually been involved in a table at a show but I have been to a fair few and I have stayed at a Holiday Inn. Running a table will require quite a significant cash float and the ability to handle credit cards I suspect would be a bonus. Goose neck lights would probably be and advantage. Sometimes its the little things that get forgotten when planning something like this. Anyway I'm sure eveything is in hand.
I know this is primarily a CCF get together but I would like to Mom and Dad at least cover their costs and maybe make it a regular thing around the country at various larger shows :-)
Do we have a CCF flyer designed? Or something that will remind people to check us out after they have left the show?

Genos cheesestaks, YUCH! All hype and very expensive.

Jimmys on South Street is much better and closer too.
Pats is okay.
D'Allesandros (northwest city) and Big Johns (New Jersey) are great.

There's a train/subway station under the convention center. Unless you're lugging a lot of stuff or people, remote parking and a train ride could work for you.

We always laugh because it says "World Famous Pickle Bar" but, perhaps we should take that seriously if it's being mentioned here!!

Just read the last page, Big Johns in Cherry Hill on Route 70 I believe? The pickle bar is good and the sandwiches are huge and delicious. If you're going into philly via high speed line from NJ I'm going to recommend Monk's restaurant, it's a block from the station. They have a beer bible to order from though I'll recommend the Sour Flemish Ale which is usually on tap, the Mussels, Pomme Frites & their version of buffalo wings are all delicious. The place is small and gets packed so their maybe a wait but it's worth it. http://www.monkscafe.com
Rest in Peace

I'm set - I've booked myself into a small b&b in University City and will ride the trolley into the Convention Center area (#34). I'll get to see some sights, and I'll avoid those ridiculous parking fees. Contrary to what I posted earlier, I will arrive some time Wednesday, so I may be able to make it to the Wednesday evening dinner affair.

Hey, anyone know if there are any Wells Fargos nearby?
I don't expect there to be any Union Bank of California out there ;)

There ought to be, with Wells Fargo having acquired Wachovia, one of the (formerly) larger bank presences in this area. There's a Wells Fargo branch within a couple miles of me and I expect Philly to be fully-stocked with them.
