I think it's called the Chicago Toy Show at Kane County Fairgrounds - looks like the next one is at the end of April? Google Chicago Toy Show and all the links will pop up. Again, haven't been there in a long time but heard there's lots to buy.

The toy show at the Kane County Fairgrounds is special! It is west of Chicago near St. Charles, IL. The show is called the Antique-Collectible Toy & Doll Show. Here's a link to the Fairgrounds calendar of events: http://www.kanecountyfair.com/calendar.cfm

I've never been to the spring show but I guess it pretty much as good as the fall. Spring show this year is Sunday April 26th. The fall show will be Sunday October 25th. The show is HUGE spread across several buildings at the fairgrounds. Chris, my friend Bob Richards and I usually head up on Saturday night before the fall show. The Illinois Matchbox club typically has a meeting on that Saturday night. Occasionally we get to see a great collection like Rook DeCoster or Bob Neuman have. We spend the night, do the toy show Sunday morning and head back to Cincinnati. If you'd like to join us please get ahold of us and we'll gladly help make it happen.

Sounds great! I have a car show in Tennessee the next weekend. I will have to get my fun bucks in a line first and see if I have enough tickets to ride both rides. I will not know for sure until the beginning of April though, as it is the busy season now for our store and much of the coming year will depend on how we handle the next two months.
