« on: March 29, 2016, 10:27:14 PM »

Thanks to everyone that voted, I was notified today that my top collection was the winner of the Eye of the Collector contest, and some of my collection will be on display starting on april 16 through  September at the Perot Museum in Dallas tx. This well help get top collecting a little more popular. The photographer is coming out Friday to take pictures and  also the director for the museum to talk about how to display them. Thanks again for the help.

Congratulations!  You beat the Houdini collection!  :o

How far is it from the airport? (American always makes me change planes there). I'll try to make it.
I know some people who will visit for sure!

Congrats, Michael. After seeing the photos you've posted here, not surprised though.
