When I started going to the show, there were the normal two rooms and one parking lot but there was another building and another parking lot full of stuff across the street. Prices were great and people mainly sold items that were not restored, the good old days (Pre Ebay days). Not sure of the date. Over twenty-five years is my guess.
Donald E. Stephens Convention Center, in Rosemont Illinois, would be the next location, in my opinion. Biggest draw back would be no outside parking lot, but a nice huge facility. Better hotels and restaurants, beer (for impulse buys), and minutes from my home
