  I would also like to know who is going to be at the May show. I'm doing a road trip with some friends to Chicago that same weekend to see the cubs play the Yankees while also seeing on the way there pnc Park in Pittsburgh and great American in Cincinnati who's also playing the Yankees on our way back. So while in Chicago if they have someone I really want at fanatics I'll defiantly check the show out.

  You're such a tease, Lou...
  
  
  
  Anyway, I emailed Lauren Graziano to let her know that if she twists your arm hard enough that you may check out the show, while you are in the Chicago area.
  
  
  
  Good luck !

  First day was kind of dead, ticket lines were completely empty when I arrived at 5:30. Bad for business, although perfect for us.. no waiting in lines. Great day as all my helmets came out good.. Little, Wright, Wehrli, Joiner, Yary, Moore, and Renfro were extremely nice. I used a blue sharpie extreme fade resistant for the first time. Not as bold as the regular sharpie, but suppose to be fade resistant so we'll see.
  
  
  
  Chopper, no I'm not doing Moss. I want him although I target the older guys. Charlie Joiner may be the youngest guy I'm getting lol
  
  
  
  May show is going to be focused on the Cubs with Jake Arrieta and Javier Baez
  
  
  
  Bronx Lou let me know if you decide to come out.

  I will let you know for sure bats. Like I said I'm going with friends as a baseball stadium road trip so everyone wants to do something with the limited time we have . So there would have to be someone I really wanted to get away from the rest of the group from what we decide to do so I can get a autograph .

  Have you noticed fading on standard sharpies ?
  
  
  
  If so, after how many years, and is this happening even when they have been kept out of sunlight ?

  to me just blue on a white panel football but not really on a helmet bats.... you saw some of my helmets in person no fading at all.... but then again you do keep them out of the sun and if you have the money you want to display in the uv protected football /helmets display cases but then get pricy... for Bill Dudley I got a f/s Leather signed in Jan most likely the last he signed like that. So I picked up a stiner bells and whistles holder for $200 to protect it.. but my team helmets are in the box thrown against the wall waiting to be added to ....
  
  
  
  now Ronnie lott is a big name for me at GTSM and Oakland good to know you did good yesterday there bats

  I don't claim to be an expert and could be wrong, but I think that's about the white panel and not the pen as a general rule. I'm sure others have thoughts on this. But I've heard a few horror stories about sharpies bleeding and fading on white panels. Just my 2 cents.

  I believe your right SKVU....I know blue sharpies bleed on baseballs...should be same on white panel footballs

  I just got back. The place was DEAD! to be fair I just went for Joe Greene. Got there around 1:30 no line at Will Call, 3 people in front of me for Mean Joe, Steve Largent was sitting next to him, No Line. Left at 1:50
  
  The May Show is going to have another Chicago Cubs Friday Night. several Players listed on the flier.

  Ya I could see that. Nobody at the show to me was a really big name for me or wowed me. Than again I'm more of a baseball hall of famer collector and Yankee/giants/notre dame collector. So nothing was rly there for me. But even the football guys. The only one that really seemed big to me was Joe Namath

  I noticed the original blue sharpies fade on white panel footballs, which I initially started connecting in the late 90s. White football helmets such as Miami and my Cowboys helmets from '08 are fading. Keep in mind they've been in storage, smoke free and out of light. I've been using deco paint pens for years, but the older guys sign slower and the paint bleeds (Spiders).
  
  
  
  My suggestion is to never collect a white panel football, waste of money.

  Hey I missed the show but could you tell me who was on the flyer for the May show?

• March 2017

  sgp247 > 03-20-2017, 10:26 AM

  The flyer consisted of all Cubs players Arrieta, Baez, Schwarber, and more. I'll list all the names this evening as I don't have the flyer on me.

  steelerfan1968 > 03-20-2017, 10:35 AM

  I have one in front of me, I'll just start the May show topic.
