According to Dunchamp, “our dealers are virtually ‘hand-selected’ to ensure that there is a representative display of glass, china and pottery from the depression-era.” He adds that visitors to the show will find an impressive selection of everyday kitchen items to elegant serving pieces, dinnerware and stemware in a variety of most wanted colors and patterns. “The continued success of our twice-yearly show is testimony to the many unique and hard-to-find items that our dealers have on display,” concludes Duchamp.

Kratochvil adds: “The beautiful items we are offering for purchase at our show have tremendous appeal to both collectors and non-collectors alike. And with the holidays upon us, many of the items are perfect for gift giving.”
