In the second week in August every year the area around Manchester, New Hampshire becomes the focus of the Antiques world in America. There are three major auctions and six large antique shows as well as numerous smaller shows, flea markets and local auctions. We exhibit at Barn Star Production's, "Midweek in Manchester" show, which we feel has the best selection of sophisticated early material of any of these shows. We have also traditionally kept our gallery open for this period. It is certainly one of the best times of the year to see us. I recommend an appointment to assure our full attention.
