Small Town Antique Fest: A Vintage Collector's Paradise!

1 year ago

It's an antique street fair! The 1910s downtown of Centralia, Washington is home to hundreds of antique dealers, and once a year, a street full of special guest vendors from all over the region appear! I'm appraising at this year's Antique Fest, but I get a few breaks between appraisals to show what's fun and fabulous for collectors...and flippable for resellers.

Rain doesn't deter Northwest collectors, and a nice crowd combs through everything from Paul Frankl and Caselli modernist furniture to an Old Virginia dough bowl and a 19th century coverlet in a different color scheme! As the day dries, more comes out to sell, with such a variety--old tins, boxes, chalkware, uranium glass, 1960s barware, Bitossi and American pottery...there's a lot of fun to see here!

There's more than unusual vintage at the Fest this year, as one dealer pulls up a trailer with built-in shelves that opens up to be an instant showroom! A row of colorful phones, fun 1960s toys and a lot of other non-breakables stay up permanently, and the furniture and breakables in boxes go outside on tables. I want one too!

Antique Fest flies right by, but we sure have fun! We'll be back to show you the appraisal fair in another video soon.
