FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
“THE ORIGINAL 158TH SEMI-ANNUAL YORK ANTIQUES SHOW & SALE” is scheduled for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, February 3, 4, and 5, 2012 at MEMORIAL HALL EAST, located within the YORK FAIRGROUNDS CONVENTION & EXPO CENTER in downtown York, Pennsylvania. This extremely popular event will feature 96 carefully screened EXHIBITORS in room settings offering a truly impressive and outstanding variety of antiques. According to show manager Melvin L. Arion, the merchandise at York will run the full gamut, including 18th and 19th century period American and English furniture, as well as country pieces in original paint, fine early porcelain and pottery such as Chinese Export and Staffordshire, Oriental carpets, quilts, hooked rugs, samplers, and other textiles, estate jewelry, Native American pottery and weavings, early kitchen and fireplace items, and much more. Arion does an exceptionally good job of making certain the scope of the merchandise offered will be as broad as possible so that just about any visitor can find a “new” treasure! In addition, all major credit cards will be accepted. Visiting this show, considered by many to be one of THE PREMIER antiquing events in the mid-Atlantic region, is the PERFECT antidote to the post-HOLIDAY, MID-Winter blahs!
Because of the continuing success of this York show, there’s little dealer turnover, giving visitors the chance to really get to know the dealers from whom they’re buying. However, due to the recent retirement of a couple of the participants, two exhibitors will be returning to York, both having done the show at some point in the past: ROBERT SNYDER & JUDY WILSON of Wiscasset, ME and DON HELLER from Portland, ME.
Show hours both Friday and Saturday are 10 A.M. to 6 P.M., and Sunday 11 A.M. to 5 P.M. Parking is FREE. The building is smoke-free. Food will be available.
ADMISSION is $10/person, $9 with this article or an ad.
