We are on a "California gold rush" and selling a lot of tables for this event. Now I believe the COVID era is finally over.

Don't miss out if there's a chance you can make it.

See you there!

Its a bit far for my taste, but sounds like a big event. Bigger than the Rikketik. šŸ˜…

I'm not going, unfortunately. Work will be in the way; but I get a trip to Utah out of it.

Looking at the Texas Regional that is scheduled for end of August:

Flyers went out (how I heard of it) a week or so ago. I can post a PDF for anyone that didn't get a copy.

I'll definately be at the Rocky Mountain Regional end of July. 7/28 - 7/30:

Just getting back from the National event in Lancaster, busy summer. We sold out in Portland, it was a hit! I believe we sold 130+ tables.

Mart setup, a couple tables were filled but many more still to arrive.

On the hunt for Ansonia Royal Bonn clocks. My daughter collects them.

Picked up an odd Binkosha gallery clock.

The free tables were a hit. We have 10 tables full of free items.

I sold more than I bought so that was good for a change.
