VADA Newsletter October/November 2018

The Vermont Antiques Week shows, September 27--30, had beautiful fall weather. It was a perfect weekend to get out and antique as there were plenty of shows to attend and lots of wonderful antiques to see and buy. Show attendance was good, and the dealers I spoke to had had good shows and were happy. There were lots of familiar faces as well as many new dealers at all the shows. Thank you to the show managers and promoters and all the wonderful dealers for another successful Antiques Week. Also thank you to all the people who attended and shopped the shows.
