Originally published April 2017 · p. 19

MEMPHIS, TENN.—The 50th Annual Mid-South Military History & Civil War Show held on March 4-5, was a great success! The Show was larger than ever, both in registered dealers and exhibitors, and in persons attending. Dealers with rare collections of bullets, swords, guns, and buttons did a brisk business. The Arena was full of every conceivable artifact from the Revolutionary War through the Korean War with over 50% of the tables dedicated to the War of Northern Aggression (Civil War). Couples, individuals, and reinactors filled the aisles looking for a bargain and just the right item to take home to add to or begin their own personal collections. Extremely rare collections were on display. Also, eight educational lectures were given by noted historians and authors. For more information visit http:// www.midsouthmilitaryhistory. com
