Record Riot in Hillside Illinois!

Hadn't been to a record collector show in years. I used to hit them frequently in the early 80's. Even rented a table a few times and was shocked at how little I sold. Actually ended up buying more than I sold. Other dealers would buy my best stuff before the show even opened. I did the same thing. I was scooping up some nice Beatle sheet music cheap.


The shows aren't as frequent now but the attendance appears to be excellent. I like the 50's stuff but metal, alternative and prog seem to be big now.



Jack Levin, Facebook friend who specializes in radio surveys. I picked up a very clean WLS Silver Dollar Survey from 1960. These are getting tough to find. 




WLS Silver Dollar Survey form November 26, 1960.
Poetry in Motion by Johnny Tillotson is #1 and deservedly so.


 


 

 I come back to my car to catch my car in a little hanky panky. I hated to break this up but we had to go home.


 Nice Ray Charles concert program from 1962.
