Nuernberg Card Show – roundup
By · CommentsThis past weekend we visited our Friend Rudi down in Nuernberg at the NUERNBERGER VERSICHERUNG ARENA for a card show that he hosted. The 4 hour trip was well worth it and for the Hockey enthusiast this is the place to be for picking up the latest and the greatest hockey cards ranging from the newest rookies and DEL cards to high-end autograph and jersey cards. I was very impressed in the turn out, there were 20 dealers setup and in addition to single cards that were being sold, a few of the dealers also had hockey pucks, figurine’s, memorabilia and unopened boxes for sale. There was a little bit of everything available to warm the heart of the sports collector. Here are a few pictures to give you more of an idea of what the show was all about, I’ll make sure to post the dates of the next show as soon as I receive them!
