greg11 Posted November 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Everett Grist gave me a free copy of his hardback book for helping him unload his van. I think he brought every marble ever made, you should see the big foot lockers full of marbles he brought with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joestreet Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Can't wait to get there. Was planning to come early Saturday for the show but I might try to get over there Friday night if I can catch a break at work. Sounds like it will be a good one! Joe.
