Elverson Show Ran June 15 And 16 Quality Show Will Move To Honey Brook Elementary Center In Fall
By Edie Wilhide - July 12, 2024
The Spring edition of the Elverson Antiques Show took place on June 15 and 16 at the Twin Valley High School. The show was moved to June, rather than March when it was traditionally held, in order to accommodate the school calendar. With no activities being held and students school year being over, there was no competition for the gym and plenty of parking available. Even with the change of date and Fathers Day on Sunday, the crowd showed up and buying was reported strong for many of the dealers. The show has a loyal following of collectors and dealers looking to buy quality items at reasonable prices. Forty-five dealers from eight states offered merchandise featuring country antiques, advertising, baskets, butter prints, cookie cutters, iron, folk art, furniture, rugs, quilts, sewing items, stoneware, tinware, toys, china, and more. While the primary focus remains on country antiques, areas such as art pottery, historical china, fine jewelry, and fine art paintings were also represented. Dealers looking for a small regional show with low overhead and active buyers have found it with the Elverson show. It is located in the Pennsylvania countryside, yet it is close enough to metropolitan areas such as Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C., to attract buyers from those regions. The Elverson show has been a fixture for over 50 years and has seen changes in management, location, and dealers over the years. In order to avoid conflicts with the high school schedule, the fall show will be moving to the Honey Brook Elementary Center, located at 1530 W. Walnut Road, Honey Brook, Pa. The dates for the fall show are Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 2 and 3. For further information, see the Elverson Antiques Show website, the Facebook page, or call 707-310-4488.
