    Wow! They are back at the Convention Center! I did like the Temple location. It was closer for me but I like the Covention Center too! Thanks for the info. I haven't received my postcard yet.

    I liked the Temple location, too, Ms. Leo. I recall someone slipped on the floor there though so maybe that's why the Show returned to the Convention Center. Shrug. You are welcome ;-D

    I wish I could go. I attended back in 1998 at the convention center. I had so much fun. It was not many fashion dolls there back then...mostly artist dolls. The only fashion dolls I saw were a Candi doll and Pizza Hut Skipper (both of which I purchased). You guys are lucky to live so close.

    I wish you could go, too, Georgia Girl. Years ago, when I first attended the Black Doll Show, they did not have any play scale figures. Well, maybe a few, far between. Shrug. The last few years though, they have done better. The collectors there then were into doll artist dolls or antiques - neither of which interested me.

    Congratulations on getting the Candi doll and the Pizza Hut Skipper doll there then.
