Spring show April 9th this time at the military air museum in Akron, same grounds as Akron international airport! (Easy in - easy out!) 163 tables, most are filled already- may be a few left at $25 per table.... nominal admission fee ($2? 4$) includes museum entrance fee! Great day for militaria... here's the Facebook page to get more info- NCMCSUSA PAGE and look at this venue! It's like having an all-militaria show in the air and space
Museum-- big bright and historical! (What's better than that?) great place to spend a Sunday... bring the grandkids lol!

This is new location and has been a good show!

Only a few weeks left until this great show- do not miss it! The few tables that remain will probably be booked up by next weekend, or after the Lakeland show on the 24th and 25th...also of note, there will be two special guests- one fellow, a sgt Bud Sabatay, a veteran of the 90th inf div- "the tough ombres" will be there signing copies of his book about his experiences in WW2...another fellow will also be there with his book about artillery spotters in WW2. Aviation collectors, theres going to be plenty there! (Plus a few rings...my CBI collection is going!)

Less than 2 weeks to go! Any local (or traveling) ring collectors - will probably have around 70 or so rings there for show and/or sale! Come and bring yours- buy, sell or trade- good mix of nations and eras! Nice write up here: Akron show

Great GREAT show in the hangar of the military air museum.... a lot of well known guys showed, 175 tables filled up and probably well in excess of 2000 visitors, constant stream of folks ... no "bowling alley" lanes as Mr Wittman calls the empty halls. Got to see my good friend Paul Vondrak, and met some new ones. I didn't talk to one single table holder who didn't have either a great day selling or buying or both.... my best, and only, pickup ( to answer Andys email) was a signed copy of a book written by a WW2 ETO veteran and sgt from the 90th infantry division- the "tough ombres" (plus a handshake) #honored #blessed.
