The Atlantic City Antiques Show: March 10 & 11, 2012

Posted in: Arts and Culture, Fairs and Festivals, Fashion and Shopping, Upcoming Events

The Atlantic City Antiques Show returns for a third successful year to the Atlantic City Convention Center on March 10th & 11th, 2012. Anxiously anticipated by exhibitors and collectors alike, the show is managed by JMK Shows & Events and will feature a shopping experience that is not to be missed. The show encompasses more than 250,000 square feet and comes packed with hundreds of dealers featuring an array of inventory that represents the ultimate treasure hunt for collectors of everything from Barbie to the Barbizon School. Antiques and collectibles of all types will be on display including furniture, toys, dolls, art, advertising, vintage fashions, Art Deco, lighting, ephemera, jewelry, memorabilia of all types, and much more.

One of the most exciting aspects of the show will be the Appraisal Center featuring appraisals by four prominent experts in antiques and collectibles. Leading the team is Linda Roberts of White Orchid Appraisals from Delaware County, PA. Linda has been appraising for over twenty years and understands a broad range of objects from jewelry to furnishings to decorative arts. “We run a great appraisal clinic,” she says. “There isn’t much that we can’t handle; and we’ve had some really great things come in over the years.”

Also on the appraisal team is Cindy Charleston Rosenberg, a certified art appraiser specializing in American and European art from the Art Appraisal Firm, Elkin’s Park, PA. Doll and toy specialist Dorothy Hunt from Sweetbriar Auctions, Earlville, MD brings 22 years experience to the team, and William Bunch from Bill Bunch Auctions & Appraisals, Chadds Ford, PA brings knowledge in art glass, rugs, Civil War relics, books, manuscripts, silver, maps, prints, and other categories. Dealers and collectors alike are encouraged to consult this panel of experts to discover the inner secrets of their attic treasures for just five dollars per item.
