Hi.
I used to live in the suburbs of Boston for about 5 years around 10-15 years ago and I'm still in good contact with my folks there. Me, my fiancée and our son plan to visit them either next summer or the summer of 2012 and stay with them for about 10 days before going up to Maine to their summerhouse for a week. I was just wondering if there were any collectors around there that meet monthly or so and if they could tell me where is best to shop for Joes in those days. When I lived there, I did most of my toy shopping on route 9, in Natick and Framingham and in Burlington mall. Thanks in advance..

Well, I don't live near Boston, but there's a bunch of us up here in Maine and I'm sure we could get together. Let me know!

Two words: Craigslist Mike
http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...adventure.html I don't live in Boston, yet, but I got a hold of Mike and he is a super nice guy and has an awesome collection. Not sure about any clubs though. |

I would too, love to find good places in and around Boston to buy Joes when I come there, even if I have to go down to Rhode Island or to Connecticut ;)

I'm up in Concord NH.
Far as I know there's no regular meeting Joe club. Kingofpain26 (i think that's the number) is the guy to talk to.

I've been up in New Hampshire a lot of times, love that state. Every time I missed mountains those 5 years I lived in Massachusetts I went up to New Hampshire to Mt. Washington and around there, beautiful scenery there....I love trees, my country is really really scarce in trees

There's a goldmine in Portland Maine for Vintage stuff on Congress street, all they have is Vintage Joe and video games. A MUST stop.
