TUCSON GEM & MINERAL SHOWS
Howard Johnson Show
La Quinta Inn Show
(formerly Holiday Inn Express)
                   [2006]
                          [2003]
The I-10 Freeway shows are worth a long hard look because of the sheer size and diversity of dealers.  You will see a lot of junk at these shows but you will also find some real treasures and bargains.  Some of the better deals in Mexican minerals can be found here but you have to look hard.

The Pueblo Inn is probably the best of the five motel shows alone I-10 between Congress St and 22nd street.  So if your time is limited, hit the Pueblo Inn FIRST.

Dealers in outside tents and in the bottom floor motel rooms.
                                            [2004]
Dealers in the motel rooms in back along with more tables of material in front of their rooms.

Lots of tent dealers behind the Howard Johnson.  Here you see the Coleman quartz tent from Hot Springs, AR.  Most dealers are in the same location from year to year.  Makes it a lot easier to find them again and they know it!

Kind of milky if you ask me!
