To All Balticon 46 Dealers' Room Applicants:

Good day,

Balticon 46 is a science fiction convention of about 1800 attendees, held on Memorial Day weekend at the Marriott Hunt Valley Inn, located in Hunt Valley, Maryland.

We endeavor to maintain the science fiction theme in the dealers room. Balticon reserves the right to select dealers and to limit space assigned. Such concerns as a balanced room, prompt and accurate application and prior dealing at the convention are considered. Please read all of the paperwork and fill out both forms. Failure to do so may harm your chances for tables. All areas will be secured by convention security after hours. The forms linked here can be filled out in Microsoft Word if you prefer that to filling forms out by hand.

Please bear in mind when making plans that we are a four day convention.

Hope to see you at Balticon,

Larry Sands

Balticon Dealers' Room Manager
