Springfield, Oh

Toward the end of the auction.  When it started, their was no seats available.

Yesterday's auction was ok.  We did get a number of items and they will be a nice addition to the upcoming March show.  I'll add a few photos when we get home.
    Today we'll visit a couple of antique malls and then head home.  It's been cold, as low as -1 and the heat in the truck is not that good. I think today it's going up to 12 degrees, a regular heat wave.

Lafayette, In



Somewhere in Ohio
From the window of our hotel in Lafayette, IN. When we left NJ, weather report was 1-2 inches.  Looking at 5 inches now.  Not a fun ride pulling a trailer in a 2wd truck.  But we made it.  Sure hope the auction was worth the drive.

Off to Lafayette, Indiana for a auction

Heading to Indiana for a Saturday auction.  We've been to this New Year's auction before.  Hope to find a few good items.

Kimberton Sunday show report

Sunday is always a iffy day.  When the show first opened we had a sale.  But it wasn't until 4 pm(when the show closed) we had 3 more sales.
Overall a good show, and we did get invited back for the March show in 2018.  But we will be in the other building.  The other building matches are merchandise a little closer.  Plus we know a number of dealers there.

Kimberton Saturday report

For our first show it was a good Saturday.  A lot of sales and a lot of customers.  Many of the dealers have been during the show for 15 years and more.  But all the dealers were very friendly and helpful.  So today being Sunday, like many other shows, maybe a sale or not.

Kimberton show setup

The space was a little different in size but it worked out well.  Loading in wasn't bad and the setup took about 5 hours.  So Saturday's show runs between 9 and 5.  We have out fingers crossed.

Slatington update


We'll, we've been really busy and Slatington has taken a back seat for the last couple of months.  So the other day we spent some time there and re-did our booth.  Hope to get the sales back in line for this month.
