Yes.... pictures if you can too!
Photographs of the show are always fun to see and are admired by those of us who don't get to go.
Some day, I'd get a kick out of seeing a short cel phone video of some of the clowns..........the SMC clowns!

Anyone have some insight on how the show was...?
Perhaps, a few photos would be nice as well...

I enjoyed the show, great to see everyone who attended. As for the quality, I thought there was some cool stuff there, in terms of signage especially. Just neat to see everything and fun to look! Hopefully some folks who went agree.

Good Show. Around 16 SMC members at Portillo's Thursday evening. Portillo's was extremely crowded as they had 54 Cent chocolate cake for their 54th anniversary. But, it was nice to visit.
Friday morning was a little cold, but as the sun came out it warmed up and was very nice. As it warmed up more items came out of the trucks and trailers. So, I don't know how many times I walked around finding new items each time.
I didn't buy anything. But, here is a photo of one of the aisles. Plus a couple of items that grabbed my attention. Hopefully, some other members will post their finds.

I went with my brother. I bought a Hershey's ice cream clock, barber pole, hamms rippler sign and a play pinball here neon sign. My brother bought a cats eye marbel stop sign and. Round railroad xing sign. I wanted a double bubble Pepsi clock, but didn't want to pay what they wanted. $750 was the least expensive one. Overall, a good
Show.

The peanut roaster was great. Even the spring drive for the roasting drum worked! Also had a big asking price--$6,500.

If you really need one, I guess $6500. is just peanuts.
I like it too!
