ITHACON® is now organized and run by the students in the Ithaca College School of Business course MGMT 29800 ITHACON: Promoting and Managing Conventions https://catalog.ithaca.edu/undergrad/schools/school-business/business-administration/entrepreneurship-innovation-minor/. We believe this course to be unique in the US in that it allows the students to take full responsibility for an actual ongoing

convention. Students assume the various roles in planning, promoting, and managing the convention, while those of us who have been involved for many years shift to mentoring roles. There is nobody assigned to monitor for and reply to Facebook messages.

So cool!

Please join us THIS SATURDAY 08.22.26 from 1PM-3PM for a Special Comic Book Grading Workshop hosted by our good friend J.C. Vaughn J.C. Vaughn!!!

Many of you may know Mr. Vaughn as a comic book and novelist writer or as one of our local Wednesday Warriors on NCBD, but he’s also the longtime President of the Overstreet Price Guide and he’s agreed to share his grading knowledge with the LI Comic Shop Family!

Knowing how to assess the condition of your comics is an essential skill to have for collectors of all ages! So whether you want to learn a new skill or sharpen your existing grading skills come on by! We pretty much guarantee you’ll also learn some awesome comic book history from JC as a bonus! AND perhaps you may be able to partake in a grading contest if we have enough participants!!! We hope to see you all Saturday!!
