Steel City Con promoter to sell pop culture show Tribune-Review/Pittsburgh Tribune-Review | November 20, 2008| | Copyright 2008 Tribune-Review/Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. Provided by ProQuest LLC. (Hide copyright information) Copyright

It's not for lack of success that Dominic Alessandria has decided to sell his popular Steel City Con toy and pop culture convention business.

In fact, a relocation this year from the ExpoMart in Monroeville to a larger space at the Pittsburgh Indoor Sports Arena in Harmar helped to make the most recent event in late October one of the largest in the show's 19-year history, he said Wednesday.

The three-day show had more than 200 exhibitors displaying items at more than 500 tables -- about 100 more than recent shows at the smaller Monroeville site -- said Alessandria, who is seeking buyers.

He ...
