    Randolph swap meet (Rootstown OH) went back to a 2 day event, for the Spring event only. Saturday June 7th and Sunday June 8th. I'll be back inside the building selling car movies and movie posters.
    Not really known for traditional parts, but then again it's not loaded jewelry, lawn equipment, birdhouses and chinese tools either. Lot's of garage cleaners with giveaway prices and if you look hard enough you can find some treasures.

    Randolph used to be THE swap-meet back in the day. Always liked it better than Canfield, more sensible lay-out IMO. Haven't been there since it went to a 1 day event. Planning on going Saturday. Hope it recovers to days of old.

    I used to vend at Thompson when Ernest McIntyre and Gasser Magazine ran it Mickey....but every damn time I went it rained !!!
    So for the benefit of the event and Drag Racing in general I gave it up! (That's BS...I just got tired of getting wet and my canopies blowing down) ....hope you guys have sunshine up the ying-yang...great event

    Randolph was the first swap meet I ever vended....late 70's or early 80's maybe....Hope it comes back to it's heyday. None of them are what they were even 10 years ago....but I'll still go till I can't stand up

    I'll be just inside the door of the "L" shaped building fleabag if you need anything. Driving up Friday night but Building will be closed by the time I get there so will be in early Saturday morning to set up.
    Weather looks decent (rare for Randolph) so good luck selling, hope you do well
