Screamingeagles101 Posted July 31, 2016 Share #1 Posted July 31, 2016 2016 MAX Show October 6-9, 2016 Monroeville Convention Center Monroeville, PA Has anyone ever been to this show? I'm thinking of going. Can anyone please give me some insight on how big it is and some tips. Also is anyone else going? Best.

JBFloyd Posted July 31, 2016 Share #2 Posted July 31, 2016 Excellent show. For years it was the biggest Third Reich-oriented show in the counry, but has expanded its base and now includes many of the major dealers in all areas of militaria. It has about 800 tables, in three rooms, as I recall, so there is something for everyone. It was recently acquired by the OVMS, so expect the base to broaden even more. Overall, well worth the drive.

CNY Militaria Posted August 1, 2016 Share #8 Posted August 1, 2016 I went last year for the first time, plenty of US to make the trip worthwhile. I'll go again this year....it's no SOS, but it's a good lead in to it. If you go to any show, plan for SOS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAW Posted August 1, 2016 Share #9 Posted August 1, 2016 I set up at both The Max and SoS.....and totally agree with the above.... Plenty of stuff...US and other nations....at Monroeville.... ...but if you can only go to one show...go to SoS. Both are great...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screamingeagles101 Posted August 1, 2016 Author Share #10 Posted August 1, 2016 Not sure if I'm going to fly or drive there. Coming from NY. Does anyone know the nearest airport to the convention center? Is it PIT? Thanks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted September 28, 2016 Share #12 Posted September 28, 2016 Resurrecting this thread from last month...I'm going to the MAX this year and dragging GIKyle with me. This will be my first year and it coincided perfectly with a research trip for my book. Anyone else besides tarbridge, CNY, and MAW going? I'm really looking forward to it!

JBFloyd Posted September 29, 2016 Share #16 Posted September 29, 2016 I'll have four tables of orders, decorations and medals of the world. In the main entrance and turn left. When you hit Tarbridge's tables, you're one aisle too far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAW Posted September 29, 2016 Share #17 Posted September 29, 2016 I'm in the "cheap seats" aka...the "action room" as they brand it. 3 tables...90% US stuff...WW1 and WW2 groupings, equipment, photography, books, etc.....along with an assortment of other items and earlier era stuff. I'll try to remember to put a USMF sign up. Stop by and say "Hello!".... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
