I know we have quite a few members in the general Philadelphia vicinity (close enough) or are Phillies fans and honestly, who wouldn't want the opportunity to meet Dickie Noles??? (I met him about 20 years ago, and he was one of the nicest guys I ever talked to!)

The link above takes you to Swami Lee's Sports Cards event page. The atmosphere at the signings at his shop are memory-makers. This means that you are afforded whatever time you want to spend with the guest and stick around and chat baseball and anything else. Additionally, the autographs are FREE. So are the hot dogs, soda, water, & chips. The location is very convenient - only 2 miles away from the Cherry Hill Mall and about 5 miles (or less) from both the Tacony-Palmyra & Betsy Ross bridges.
I will be there the entire time (helping out, keeping tabs during pack wars, eating leftover hot dogs) and so will my son. Please come out and support a local card shop in the process. They are a dying breed, and this is a great opportunity. Oh, and the Swami is a REALLY nice guy, too. Seriously. I've known him more than 30 years, and I truly mean it! (And he's not a member here, so he doesn't even see this!)
Edit: For those who don't wish to open the link, the event is Saturday, 11/18/17, from noon to 2:00 PM. The shop is open 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
