Are there any shows anywhere near Allentown Pennsylvania? They used to have one many years ago at the Sheraton Jetport Hotel across from the Lehigh Valley International Airport. Hasn’t been one in decades.

PennCon on the Harrisburg area is September 13. Held at Messiah University off Rt15. Not your area but only about 90 minutes.

I don’t believe so, closest would probably be MosquitoCon in Wayne NJ.

That was PennCons previous location, as Armorsmith noted they have a new venue.

Thanks I’m familiar with all those places. Didn’t want to drive far. Looking for someplace close to get a table and sell most of my Stash. No luck with posting on line. People usually want items for free or dont want to pay shipping. Thanks.

My wife has a bunch of family members in Allentown area and I’ve got an aunt and uncle 9 miles from Mosquitocon. I’m a regular Mosquitocon and Maraudercon attendee and would love to see a con in Lehigh Valley. It can add to the family visits there anyway; Modellbahn Ott in Boyertown and Tony’s in Coplay are fun shops too.

Hi, easy for me to say I’m not making the drive and hauling kits, but PennCon at the Messiah U, is nice one day show and gets a lot of armor guys. Most of the treadhead hosts of PennCon are AMPS guys, then there’s us AMPS MD guys who attend. I’m kicking myself for not making the 4-5hr one way drive to the 2025 VA IPMS Nats hearing and seeing what I missed ! Mike

I didn’t know Tony’s was still around. Used to go there in the early 70’s for Estes model rocket supplies.

Yes sir, still there. A little more expensive than online but it’s a trip back in time going in there.

Only thing about Tony’s is that IIRC he still does not take CCs or debit cards. Cash only.
