Sorry I missed the $250 Grade and the high condition Trojan, but I did get to inspect the unfired condition Fox AE 20. The owner is a friend and shooting companion and I will pay his reasonable price, someday. He helped me with the purchase of an outstanding 20 gauge Sterlingworth a bit more than a year ago. My depleted physical condition may mean that Kevin will have a new partner next year. I just can't do three days any more. However, I have enjoyed almost 50 years of this show and will continue to attend.

Bill, is it sitting with Kevin for three days, or those wonderful folding chairs? They don't give us enough room to bring my leather wing chair. It's a good thing they put that rubber mat down, because it makes walking the show more tolerable.

This year the entire floor was carpeted.

Empire must have been having a 50% off sale. Oh wait, they do every day.

The show at the Fairgrounds has always been carpeted, but I just can't walk the aisles like I used to and I can't sit for three days either. I am the second partner that Kevin has worn out. What a guy. I will continue to attend as a guest, but not as an exhibitor. I still can't stop thinking about the eight gauge Parker lamp for $25.00. My two barrel cased set C Grade Bernard Steel Parker was a Baltimore find, thanks to my host, Kevin.
