2010 South River Show
2010 South River Show
I took these photos at the 15th Annual Bottle Show held on Sunday, February 7, 2010 at the Knights of Columbus Hall, 88 Jackson Street, South River, NJ. The hall was set up on Tuesday night and there were 9 tables short! Nine of the hall tables had broken legs and I needed to get them wire welded in a hurry since they were already paid for. Add to that about a foot of snow on Saturday the day before the show and things started to get interesting. I lost a few dealers, mostly to the South where snowfall accumulations were up to 2 feet. The paid attendance at the door was 136, 90 shy of the 225 average. I was the show chairman and at the time was chairing 3 shows a year; South River, Batsto & Millville. Give that a try sometimes.
