PLUMSTED – It was an occasion of classic cars, comic books, collectibles and conversations during a recent Sunday morning.
Were you to stop by a certain Wawa for a coffee, a sandwich or gas you would have noticed several vintage vehicles in the parking lot. Their owners were looking them over, holding their cups of java and catching up.
This is a weekly occurrence, according to one member, noting that they just enjoy a little car talk as well as other topics each Sunday morning.
It isn’t a formal club – just a group of men who enjoy their mornings at their neighborhood convenience store and the weather was just perfect for that activity.
Now if you crossed the parking lot and made a left turn to head down toward the New Egypt Elks Lodge you’d find a whole different activity.

The New Egypt Toy and Comic Book show was going on inside the building and shoppers of all ages were looking around tables, scanning through totes and boxes of action figures, comic books, models and other items. The great hunt was on for treasure and a good number of vendors were happy to comply.
If you were hungry, you could order up a pork roll, egg and cheese sandwich from the kitchen where members of the Lodge were running their concession. That was just one item on the menu.
The show proved popular and the parking lot at the Lodge was nearly filled before the 10 a.m. which was when the show was open to the public.
