Have you ever felt like you needed to get away for a weekend?
If you’re like many collectors, the remedy is usually a trip to a toy show. There’s nothing like hunting for vintage and modern Star Wars items, especially in the company of friends.
And Andy Cook certainly gave all of us a pretty good reason to visit Carlisle this past weekend.
Andy hosted the Toys for the Ages Expo at the Carlisle Expo Center in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. The show boasted more than fifty vendors, who brought an incredible mix of toys and collectibles spanning the past five decades.
Join host David Quinn for part one of the two-part series on the weekend at the Toys for the Ages Expo. Come along for a ride out to Carlisle, lunch at a local diner, setup for the show with friend and collector Peter LeRose, a dinner at a local pub with many of the vendors, and a tour of the show that Saturday morning that leads to an amazing find!
This episode is also the introduction to a new series titled Amazing Finds. In part two (Episode 54), vendors, shoppers and collectors share the stories behind some of their most meaningful and memorable toy-related pickups.
