The show is just around the corner so lets see who is going. If you haven't been to this show you should think about going. Its always a good time for sure.
Originals only for me. Always looking for Simpson oil, Super A, and MFA oil cans and globes.

Great show! Nice hotel, a lot of venders and an auction at the end. I think this is the second largest show in the US, right after Iowa Gas.

Guys, help a rookie understand.
A couple questions. Some may seem obvious and stupid. Please bare with me.
I understand there is the auction on Saturday. I've been to the Matthews site and looked through all 20 pages of the CTO 2013 catalog.
Am I correct in that these are the items that will be up for auction on Saturday? This is the one with the big Mobil collection correct?
I read that there is a 10% cash buyers premium. Is this the only added expense when purchasing at the auction?
Are the auction items set at this point or could more be added by the time of the show?
Do the auction items have reserves? If so, is this identified on the Matthews site in any way. I couldn't find anything.
Are you able to open view, touch, examine the items prior to the auction?
Are auction items assumed authentic? Are non-authentic pieces properly identified? Or is this a non-issue with this type of event?
Approx. how many vendors at this show?
Any other helpful hints to a rookie show attendee would be appreciated.

Steve, this is a great show and a great auction. There are no reserves on the items and what you are seeing is most likely what will be at the auction. Dan sometimes adds some additional items. Yes you can walk right up and touch the items and they will tell you if something is a reproduction however there are very few of those, if any, in the auctions.
Good luck and see you there

Still waiting as well and I sent stuff in about a mouth ago. Last year I remember having to call the hotel to confirm just so that I would know that my forms were received.
