Now that the holidays are behind us and it’s a new year, we would like to begin making special plans for the 60th Philly Non-Sports Card Show on May 3 & 4, 2014 (actually we began as soon as the 59th was over). Non-sport card collectors are always happy to get-together for social events and we hope what we have planned will be no exception.

Buca di Beppo (714 Grape St., Whitehall, PA 18052) is a fantastic Italian restaurant less than 10 minutes from our host hotel—Hilton Garden Inn. We have reserved space for a Saturday night dinner and hope you will attend. What they have to offer is a five-course meal: appetizer, salad, pasta, entrée and dessert. The normal cost for this dinner is almost $40.00. With the help of sponsorship we are able to offer this meal for $25.00 including tax and gratuity. Our very generous sponsors include: Breygent Marketing, Cryptozoic Entertainment and Topps Inc.,

What we need to know at this time is whether or not you will join us for this celebration (non-sport card celebrations usually mean special promos). We will not collect money (but you can start saving now) until one month before the dinner but there’s a lot of planning which goes into this so we need to know if enough people are interested. We'd appreciate if you can answer this very brief, two question survey. You will not be bound to this early decision but it will help give us an idea.
