Your narrator, the Leader
The Leader attended one of his favorite shows of the year, the Williamsburg Nostalgia Fest in Williamsburg, Virginia 10 - 12 November 2021. He was anxious to see his favorite comic book dealer Gene Carpenter whom he hadn’t seen since early 2020 at a small show in VA Comicon promoter Brett Carreras’s warehouse in the forsaken wilds of Goochland, Virginia. Before that show the Leader had not seen Gene or the Leader’s traveling companions Jim Frost and Richard Delmer since the Williamsburg Nostalgia Fest from November 2019. The Leader was also pleased to see his friends C.P. Lockhart and his partner Sam Austill and other memorabalia dealers who usually attend this show -Bubba Williams, Leon Vincent and Martin Grams, Jr.

Sam Austill and C.P. Lockhart
Sam and C.P. open for business on the first day of the show open to the public. Relaxing in the background between them is another dealer I had never met before, Jim Valerino.

You’d think these rough-hewn cowboys would have more respect for a man wearing the coolest Ray Bradbury polo shirt on planet Earth.
Leon Vincent and Pat Vincent
I first met Leon Vincent who owns a movie poster store in Bowling Green, Kentucky at this show in 2019. Leon always has the largest and best assortment of movie posters and related merchandise at this show. I have Boy On A Dolphin on Blu-Ray, Boomtown on DVD. Still waiting on a Blu-Ray of Constantine And The Cross. The Leader's traveling companion Jim Frost took some time off from trading comics with Gene Carpenter and bought $75 worth of lobby cards from Leon.
Leon Vincent
Leon with a Mexican one-sheet movie poster of a movie derived from episodes of the American TV series Bonanza.
Leon Vincent
Leon with a Mexican lobby card of Cecil B. DeMille’s 1949 movie Samson And Delilah and a publicity still from the movie with a Victor Mature autograph. I’ve always liked this movie and have a Blu-Ray disc of it. Maybe one day we’ll get an upgrade to 4K.
Leon Vincent
Leon with an insert style poster of the British Hammer movie Prehistoric Women, 1967. The poster is signed by the film’s star, Hammer scream queen Martine Beswick. I first became intrigued by this movie when I saw photos of it from a copy of the adult film magazine Adam Film World which I may have squirreled away in a box somewhere. I never saw it on television and it never made it to laser disc. If it ever makes it to Blu-Ray I will buy it.
Scott Wilson
Movie memorabilia dealer Scott Wilson also has interesting DVDs and movie posters at this show. I’ve never seen Voyage To The End Of The Universe. I did see Journey To The Seventh Planet in the theater as a young kid in the early 1960s. I never saw it again until it was released on Blu-Ray several months ago. Out of curiosity I bought it then and it holds up pretty well with ok special effects. I had no way of knowing a the time when I saw it as a kid that one of the beautiful space babes was a former Miss Denmark, Greta Thyssen, who played in a few other B movies. She also appeared nude in a few 1960s girlie magazine pictorials.
Roger Crowley
I had never met author Roger Crowley before. Mr. Crowley specializes in writing books about Western movie and TV stars and he seems to dig a little deeper than other authors in that genre. I prefer to buy hardcover books with dustjackets but Mr. Crowley's book John Wayne An American Legend I had to make an exception and lay out some cash. The book has lots of photos of John Wayne I had never seen before and the production values are excellent with nice slick paper and crisp photographs.
