Three appraisers with many decades of experience will be on hand to answer questions and evaluate items; Penny Welch, The Emporium; Ben Peterson, Nancy Ann’s Antiques; and Debbie McArdle, Iron Horse Antiques. All appraisals at the event will be verbal and informal. If a written appraisal is necessary for insurance purposes, customers can make arrangements privately with an appraiser of their choice.
Participants will be assisted on a “first come, first serve” basis. There will be a limit of two items per person, per turn with numbers being distributed at the front desk. Depending upon the turnout, customers with more than two items can wait until others are served.
