Card Show in Da Region

Posted: May 8, 2018 in Baseball Cards, Card Show

Was able to check out one of the newer shows this last weekend, Da Region Sports Card & Collectibles Expo held at The Villa Cesare Hall in Schererville. It was the second Expo to be held there, the last one was back in March and show promoter and owner of Forever Young Sports Cards Mitch LaRock looks to bring the Expo back every few months.

There was a good amount of dealers, and I believe as this show continues that number will get even bigger. A few other perks for collectors, this show was free and still gave away some nice door prizes at the end of the day. It was also nice to have autograph guest Chris Zorich. He was signing items for $25. Not sure what the autograph show budget is but it be nice to keep bringing in Region stars to sign… Ron Kittle, Hal Morris, Glen Robinson III, etc…  Keep an eye out on our Indiana Card Show Schedule when we here of the next Expo we’ll post it.
