Get Nostalgic at the Mid-Atlantic Nostalgia Convention

PulpFest dealer Martin Grams hosts the Mid-Atlantic Nostalgia Convention. It celebrates movie classics, old-time radio and television, and more. Hollywood celebrities sign autographs and pose for photos. The movie room features rare films and TV shows. The convention also features first-class presentations on a wide range of popular culture. Check out the show’s “Seminars” page to get a taste of what’s in store at the 2023 celebration. There’s also Friday’s annual charity auction with 100 percent of the money raised going to the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

The dealers’ room at Mid-Atlantic convention features over 200 vendor tables with merchandise ranging from books, magazines, photographs, movie posters, lobby cards, collectibles, toys, action figures, comic books, arts and crafts, tee shirts, DVDs, and much more. Even if you have no interest in meeting Hollywood celebrities or watching a classic movie in the screening room, the variety of merchandise at this event is worth the trip.

While you’re waiting for next summer to arrive, remember to bookmark pulpfest.com. We’ll keep you posted about related conventions to help satisfy your craving for the arrival of PulpFest 2024. We’ll be saluting “Spice, Spies, and Shaw” and a whole lot more from August 1 – 4 at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Pittsburgh – Cranberry in Mars, Pennsylvania.

Our featured image is the June 1, 1940 issue of Argosy Weekly, with cover art by Rudolph Belarski, illustrating the start of a new Max Brand serial, “Dr. Kildare Goes Home.” Created by Brand — one of Frederick Faust’s many pseudonyms — Dr. Kildare was quickly picked up by Hollywood and turned into a series of popular films. The character also appeared in a radio drama during the 1960s and a television showing starring Richard Chamberlain in the title role during the early 1960s. The Mid-Atlantic Nostalgia Convention will be showing one of these episodes on Thursday, September 7, in their movie room.
