St-Lazare-Hudson Antiques, Collectibles, Militaria Show and Sale, September 9th 2012.

September 4, 2012

We had some time to sit down and chat with Patrick and Renata (promoters for this interesting new show in the West end of Montreal).

What type of items can people find at your event?

-NON-SPORT RELATED CARDS
-ANTIQUE TOYS
-COINS
-STAMPS
-MILITARY (HELMETS, SWORDS, ETC)
-BOOKS
-MOORCROFT POTTERY
-STAR WARS
-COMIC BOOKS
-MINIATURE CARS
-SPORTS MEMORABLILIA
-DOLLS
-TRAINS
-RETRO
-COCA-COLA ITEMS
-TRENCH ART
-HOTWHEELS
-POLICE MEMORABILIA
-ANTIQUE JEWELRY
-STERLING SILVER
-COUNTRY COLLECTABLES
-AND MUCH MORE….

How many dealers or tables do you plan to have?

WE ARE AT 52 DEALERS WITH MORE PENDING CONFIRMATIONS. APPRAISOR WILL ALSO BE ON SITE. OUR GOAL IS 65 FOR OUR 1ST SHOW, AND 100 FOR THE NEXT. SPACE IS NOT AN ISSUE.

Where and when will the event be held? How much is admission?

EVENT HELD AT ST-LAZARE SPORTSPLEX, 1850 RUE DES LOISIRS, ST-LAZARE, QC J7T 3B4. SUN., SEPT. 09, FROM 9AM TO 4PM. ADMISSION $8 (CHILDREN 12 & UNDER, FREE). 25% OF THAT WILL BE DONATED TO THE VETERANS HOSPITAL. WE HAVE SPENT A LOT OF MONEY PROMOTING AND ADVERTISING THE SHOW AND HOPEFULLY, IN THE FUTURE AS THE SHOW GETS POPULAR, WE WON’T HAVE TO SPEND AS MUCH SO THAT WE CAN DONATE MORE. OUR GOAL IS TO SUPPORT LOCAL CHARITIES WHERE FUNDS ARE NEEDED MOST TO HELP PEOPLE IN NEED.

Why did you decide to create such a show? How did this come about? And why in this area?

WE HAVE ATTENDED AND PARTICIPATED IN MANY SHOWS AND MET MANY DEALERS ALONG THE WAY AS WELL AS PRIVATE COLLECTORS AND DECIDED TO PUT ON A SHOW IN OUR AREA AS WE DON’T HAVE ONE. THERE ARE MANY PRIVATE COLLECTORS IN ST-LAZARE AND SURROUNDING AREAS. WE THOUGHT THIS WOULD ATTRACT MANY PEOPLE INTO THE CITY. WE HAVE BEEN WORKING ON IT FOR OVER A YEAR NOW. THE VERY FIRST THING WE DID WAS COMMUNICATE WITH DEALERS AND COLLECTORS TO SEE IF THERE WAS AN INTEREST, AS WELL AS LOCAL RESIDENTS AND BUISNESS OWNERS. THE REACTION WAS HUGE AND RECEIVED A LOT OF POSITIVE FEEDBACK.

Do you also collect items personally? If yes, what do you like and collect personally?

WE COLLECT ANYTHING OF COLLECTABLE INTEREST. FROM COMIC BOOKS, COINS, MILITARY, ANTIQUES, TOYS, ETC..

Anything to add about the upcoming show?

HOPING TO SEE YOU ALL ON SEPT. 09, 2012 AND BRING YOUR FRIENDS TOO!

BARBARIAN HULK

July 22, 2012

Marvel Select is always bringing you the best and brightest of the Marvel Universe, but their real speciality is giving the star treatment to some overlooked members of the superhero and villain pantheons. And now, BARBARIAN HULK.

Sculpted by Jean St. Jean, this huge Hulk figure casts the not-so-jolly green giant as a barbarian with long, flowing hair, an animal-skin loincloth and a skull necklace. Based on his recent look, it’s a 10-inch beast and features an impressive 16 points of articulation. More support of the theory that everything looks tougher with a beard.

Montreal Mini ComicCon at Place Bonaventure 2011

May 4, 2011

Just got back from the Montreal Mini Comic Con held at the Place Bonaventure last Sunday (May 1, 2011). Half of the admission proceeds were donated to the Red Cross for the Japan Relief so it was a good cause. We had 3 booths and it was pretty slow….luckily we had tons of food to keep our bellies happy. We had Banh Mi (Vietnamese baguette sandwich), BBQ pork and Curry beef buns. Screw the veggies….we just wanted our carbs.

It was a beautiful Sunday and it was tough working and manning the tables with weather like that. Anwways…as promised, here are some pictures from the show….we had a little helper with us….and she was NOT camera shy. There was an actual wrestling ring set up near our booths and the noise was bothering the little flower girl.
