Dealer Notes - Selling Spaces

Due to popular demand, EXTRAVAGANZA will, in addition to the indoor, climate-controlled spaces, now be offer ing outdoor selling spaces– just back your vehicle up and unload. They will be located near the load-in doors and allow easy access to and from the main hall. Please bring your own tarps, tents, and tables - none will be provided. Please do not use tent anchors or other devices that will leave holes in the blacktop– you are responsible for any damage

done to Expo Center property.

Please note that in case of inclement weather, any remaining indoor spaces will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis. If the forecast

looks bad, you may change your outdoor reservation to an indoor space, if available, by paying the price difference no later than 8 a.m. on Friday 7/19/19. After this, if you purchased an outdoor space and wish to move indoors, you must purchase an indoor space at full price. Absolutely no refunds will be issued for outdoor spaces due to

bad weather. We thank you for your understanding.

-A Table is a standard 8’ x 30” table -A Booth is a 10’ x 10’ space on the floor suitable for the display of large items. Tables can be rented or the seller may use their own display stands. -An Outdoor Space is 10’ wide and has room for a vehicle to park behind you.

Note: Items can not be placed in aisles

(Fire Marshal requirement)

The rooms at the Four Points by Sheraton will only be held until June 17, so make your reservations soon!

ABOUT THIS EVENT

The Vintage Electronics Expo (known for years as "Extravaganza") features seminars, auctions, a social

event, and a 20,000 sq. ft. indoor flea market. The flea market has vintage electronic and relat-

ed items including radios, audio gear, gaming devices, computers, test equipment, tubes, transistors, parts, ad-vertising, display items and other ephemera including records and video. Folks come from all over the USA,

Canada and other countries to attend. For an example of what you might find, search Youtube online for

"MARC Extravaganza" The Michigan Antique Radio Club (non-profit) is the

host and promoter of the event, which has run since 1985 when the club was founded. General admission is $5 each day. To attend the other events or to be a seller, you must

be registered for the event. See www.thevee.org or the registration form in this pamphlet.

MARC also hosts a winter Vintage Electronics Expo in Farmington Hills, MI on the last Saturday of January. Welcome, and enjoy this unique event, the largest multi-day all-indoors vintage electronics event in the USA! If you can attend only one major antique radio and vintage

CONTEST CATEGORIES The MARC Board of Directors has selected the following contest categories. MARC would like to encourage members and attendees to place an entry in as many categories as possible to help continue the success of our outstanding contest.

1. Turntables and Changers: These mysterious devices make the music go around and around, until it comes out here! Any era, any speed!

2. Shortwave Radio: The waves are short, but the history is long. Show off your favorite or unusual shortwave radio, from portable to boat anchor.

3. Picture Discs: Dressing up the standard hunk of black vinyl! Bring in your prettiest and rarest for the crowd to see!

4. Radio Advertising: The booming radio industry of yesteryear also gave rise to an advertising boom. Banners, neon, stand-up displays, pens and pencils and matches and so much more. Share your most colorful and your most unusual specimens of the radio advertiser’s art.

5. The Open: Any radio, television, tube, tele-phone, computer, whatzit or gizmo... any manufac-turer or era that you love and think might win a ribbon and some ooh and aahs.
