Ocean City sports memorabilia show Saturday

OCEAN CITY – Former Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Mike Quick and former Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Mark Howe will be part of the sixth annual Sports Memorabilia Show on Saturday, April 20 at the Ocean City Music Pier, and they will greet fans and lead Q&A sessions as part of the event.

Vendors with merchandise and collector’s items representing a variety of sports and teams will be on display and for sale at the show. Admission is free, and hours will be 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Free parking will be available at municipal lots adjacent to the Boardwalk at Moorlyn Terrace, Eighth Street and Ninth Street.

Quick was a five-time Pro Bowler during nine seasons with the Eagles from 1982 to 1990. He is best known today as a radio voice of the Eagles, alongside Merrill Reese.

Howe is the son of NHL legend Gordie Howe and a member of the Philadelphia Flyers Hall of Fame. A long career in hockey included 10 seasons with the Flyers, when he was among the best two-way defensemen in the league. Howe was a three-time runner-up for the Norris Trophy and played in three Stanley Cup finals.
