(Long Beach, California) – The trend of a busy opening day continued at the February 14 – 16, 2008 Long Beach Coin, Stamp & Collectibles Expo. Total attendance for the three-day show, including dealers and the general public, was 5,206, according to Ronald J. Gillio, Expo General Chairman.
“We’ve seen this developing trend the past few years with strong attendance on Thursdays when the show opens to the public. There are serious collectors who apparently don’t want to miss anything,” said Gillio.
