"Hello Red Ball Vendors,
It is with a great deal of sadness that I have to tell you that the Red Ball Gilbert, PA show is cancelled this year. This was not our wish to cancel the show and here is the reasons for...
Looking forward to attending this year! Working hard to have an MV by the rally dates so I can actually offroad this time around!
Might be able to do some trail clearing on July 4th weekend, I'll PM you if things work out at my job to allow me the time.
I want to say 2002 or 2003, before that it was on post at Tobyhanna Army Depot, but the events of September 11 2001 brought an end to MV rallies on military bases around the country, as well as gun shows at armories, etc. so a new rally site was found in Gilbert at the fairgrounds. Been...
I will be there on Saturday only, in my usual spot, couldn't get Friday off work. Not much to sell this go-around, lots of small items: military books, some tools, lots of vintage military and industrial radio parts pieces, a little of this and that. Stop by and say hi!
I'd go one step further, and suggest getting a flatbed car trailer to winch your new water trailer onto, for the ride home. Bring some of the heaviest duty ratchet straps, or chains and binders (whichever you prefer, the latter is better but not necessary) to strap it down to your car trailer...
Trying my best to get going for this event - I have a lot going on in the next month or so, so juggling my work schedule, my daughter's school related stuff, and other events that I'd like to attend - it's going to be a photo finish to get to this. I've made it to all the others so far, so...
Sorry I'm going to miss seeing you, Rick, I'll be there Thursday and you on Friday. I'll catch up with you at Graves on Labor Day weekend, hopefully I'll have a green vehicle with me this year!
Hi all,
I have set up at Aberdeen every year from 1998 (when it was still on post) through 2018. This year, I find myself working so frequently that I don't have the time to spend to set up for the entire show, nor do I really have anything left on this end to sell. The militaria and radio...
Never had the privilege of meeting Ron, though I have the highest respect for him and his dedication to Steel Soldiers and the hobby. He will be missed by many, prayers out to his family and friends. :(
As usual, had a great time at the Graves rally, even when it's threatening to rain at any time, it's fun! Also enjoyed seeing all the regulars there, the rally gets bigger every year, this year there were over 100 folks there, and dozens of military vehicles in attendance. Syndi had a good...
I'll be there on Saturday only - couldn't get off work to set up for the entire show. But will sneak in there to enjoy the vehicles and see old friends once again. See everyone there!
Always have a great time at Aberdeen, rain or shine! The folks I meet there are the best caliber folks you can find, and you can always find neat stuff to go home with. It was great catching up with friends I haven't seen since Gilbert, and some even before that. I sold a few things I didn't...
I'll be there again, Thursday the 10th and Friday the 11th, all day both days, in my normal spot, M-2 . Not bringing much to sell this time, just odds and ends, to make some spare change to buy more stuff I don't need for this hobby. :)
Items I am looking for:
- Coleman (and other mfrs)...
The operator's manual for the Coleman 252-style milspec lantern, made from WWII through 1993. This manual is dated 1945, and covers operation, exploded parts diagram, troubleshooting and basic repair.
