Everything GPK at the Next Fall Philly Non-Sports Card
This year’s NYCC might not have much in the way of Garbage Pail Kids. So East Coast GPK collectors should set their sights on the 83rd Philly Non-Sports Card Show. This year’s fall event will once again have a big GPK focus. The show is just one month away, Oct. 25 & 26, and will be held at the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center in Oaks, PA – Hall E.
The highlight of the show is the guest artist lineup, and every one of them has GPK ties. GPK sketch artists Jason Crosby, Sam Barugh, Ted Dastick Jr., and Mike Ritchey will be at the show to interact with collectors and sell their artwork.
Promo cards are always a treat for collectors at the show. This show is no exception. Collectors entering the show will receive an official GPK promo card, Sleazy Sam, with artwork done by Sam Barugh. They will also receive a Wacky Packages promo card painted by Neil Camera, (concept by Peter Zies). The usual Philly Red Border cards will once again be included in promo packs, with a twist, random promo packs will contain medal versions of the red border cards. As has been the case for recent shows, collectors at the show on Sunday at 1:00 PM will receive a metal promo card.
The customary Saturday night dinner is scheduled once again. The guest speaker will be media guest Gary Gerani. Gary will be discussing the final book on his career in trading cards, The Card King Chronicles Vol. 5: The New Century. Collectors attending the dinner will receive an exclusive promo card. Collectors wishing to attend the dinner should email Philly Non-Sports Show to make reservations.
This long running show will have plenty of vendors selling GPKs as well as all types of non-sports items. The show is open on Saturday 10/25 from 10:00 AM – 5:00 PM, and Sunday 10/26 from 10:00 AM – 3:00 PM. Tickets are available at the door for $12 per day, or $20 for a two day pass.
