But the date was changed from one week before the Munich show until the spring. The advantage of having it in the fall was that those dealers that had to travel could do both shows within a 10 day period. This lessened the fixed costs of travelling. Gifhorn was a beautiful town to have a meteorite fair. I went twice and enjoyed it very much both times.
