Mid Atlantic Nostalgia Convention 2007

What a great event the Mid Atlantic Nostalgia Convention was! Our host Martin Grams and his team of organizers brought together some wonderful legends, actors and programs for nostalgia fans of all ages.

Virginia Davis, who was featured in "The Alice Comedies" in silent film by none other than Walt Disney, was there. She predates Mickey Mouse! The history and memories she shared were pure treasures. Virginia is the young lady on the left of Joan of www.lassie.net
 Erin Gray, who was on The New Lassie at one time, along with Buck Rogers and Baywatch, was there, along with Denny Miller of Tarzan fame, Annette Andre of The Saint, The Prisoner and The Avengers,

Conrad Brooks also stopped by to tell us about his role on an episode of Lassie.
We loved meeting so many new friends and it's amazing who you can run into at these conventions! One person used to live down the road from Lassie and would watch training as he drove by. Another was a family friend of Eric Knight's family and his mother co-wrote a book with Jerre Knight!
Attendees could never be bored with the speakers, events and 7x24 movie room! The event was capped by a dinner with live entertainment. A live Sam Spade radio broadcast was performed by the stars who attended the convention. What a great time that was!
