2012 National Show

This show was larger than most National shows and the facility provided wide aisles and access.  One feature of the show was a visit to Charles Brandon's collection.  Shuttle service was provided and a large number of collectors were treated to a fantastic collection.  Note that you can click on any picture for a larger view.
