IF you were not there today, it is too late to get the good stuff or the deals I would imagine.

SORRY SID, just have been to many of these. Lots of people come early then leave early or bring stuff for other people. Please do not let my thoughts keep you from at least going to see this get together.

If you are half way close I would go. Make contact with the venders and let them know what you are looking for. They may have it at home. Some of the venders were going to set up Saturday morning. Four me it's a 5 hour drive and I though about going but had some things to do here. Richard

I can guarantee you wont find anything if you don't go Sid. If you have the time you should go. Talk
to other collectors and get to know people. Take advise here with a grain of salt.
Wanted early tin litho signage.
petro, farm, auto, etc.

Great show. Only a few of us set up on Friday. Most of the vendors set up this morning. I didn't see any early buying. Tyler, Todd and Jeff did a great job. Great place to have a show.

Big thanks to the Toedtli family for hosting the first of many (we hope) gas swap meets in the PNW. I was able to meet many OG people that I had corresponded with over the last few years. I agree with Spencer, a great location to have a show. J

Fun gas bash! It was great to meet new people and see others that my Dad and I haven't seen for years. Special thanks to the Toedtli family, such gracious hosts - and what a great setting! Looking forward to next year!!

My son and I had a great time at the show! We both picked up a few small items and saw plenty of awesome pieces that we'd love to have. And what a perfect venue for the show! Any guy who lives in the same room as his '68 Vette is my hero!

Set up sat along with most of the vendors,really known need to get a motel as it was in driving distance for most of us.Probably be a little better if not so far off
the freeway, may scare some people away. From what I was told 20 vendors, which I thought was really good for something that was a spur of the moment
event. Word put out a lot earlier and advertised should draw a lot more. Thank you Jeff and Tod!!
