Thanks for taking the time to take the pics and now the time and effort to post them! They show a lot of inventory for almost everyone's collecting niche. The people pictures are great too. Looks like a must attend venue destined to only get better. Even saw a couple of table ID cards for contact info!

Rep point to Tom for posting his contact information at his table. This works not only for the people at the show but also for those of us who were unable to attend.

Yeppers, for me it was a really awesome show! I also got to hang out with many friends for three days, picked up some great stuff, did well selling, and got to hit the bottom notes and lend vocals to the Rusty Bottom Boys Band! Here's pics that I took of the show. Enjoy!

you buy enough tickets at enough shows eventually you'll probably win something. Although rusty buncher Mike B from Canada is pretty unlucky at chapter raffles

Glad to see these great groups of photos to memorialize this show. This was my first Spring Thaw, hopefully not the last. Best non-Canvention show I've ever been to. Plenty of tables full of interesting stuff, and even more goodies in the rooms. Weather added to the fun- I sure didn't expect to see snow, but it made for a really scenic drive on the Turnpike on the way in from Pittsburgh. Will try to get my new cans grouped together for a picture or two this evening. Over seven cases of new cans, including many new full craft cans which add some welcome variety to the fridge.

Leon: I was restocking my totes after a deal, that's why I was ducked down in that one shot.
Collector of fine rust, craft cans, and anything related to New Orleans area breweries past and present.
