The 20th MidAtlantic Nostalgia Convention is underway at a new venue the Sheraton Baltimore North Hotel in Towson through Saturday. Along with the usual vendors of memorabilia including comic books, stills, posters, records, toys, games and much more, there were the celebrities from TV and movie past including Vicki Lawrence, Hayley Mills, Bruce McGill (D Day) and Peter Riegert (Boone) from Animal House, Morgan Fairchild, Larry Matthew's (Ritchie on Dick Van Dyke Show), and more. Juliet Millls got delayed til tomorrow and Kristy McNichol couldn't make it.
I got to meet Brad from The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Barry Bostwick, and he signed my poster! We talked about his hidden gem of a film, Movie Movie and his role on TVs War and Remembrance. This Tony Award winner was very cool and gracious. I went with Laura who had a field day with the cocreator of H. R. Pufnstuf, Marty Krofft. She and I played tag team photographers and shoppers. And we saw the show runner, Martin Grams who is capping off his last convention with a bang. Thank you for the memories and the thrills. The event ends this Saturday.
