SBCS 2014 Convention

Bookend Collector

October 24, 25, and 26, 2014, Nashville, Tennessee

It’s time to start planning! Which souvenir buildings will you bring to the Auction or donate to the Raffle?  Do you have enough buildings to have a half table or a full table at the Swap Meet? Or are you just going to add to your collection? Do you have a couple of favorite buildings  you just can’t wait to share their stories at Show and Tell?
