Highlights for me were the live appraisals done over the mic.
We had visitors bring boards over they wanted to know a little bit more about, find out some history and get an estimate of their values.
Myself, Gav Scott and Stu Nettle were on hand to fall the crowd in what came out of the board bags.
It was a huge buss to scrape away some dirty wax to see signatures, by Micheal Peterson, by Simon Anderson and for Cheyne Horan.
