FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

   The 14^th ANNUAL DELAWARE COAST ANTIQUES SHOW AND SALE is scheduled for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, September 10, 11, and 12 at the CONVENTION CENTER on Rehobath Avenue in Rehoboth Beach, DE, a popular seaside resort and year-round community located about half way between Washington, DC and New York City, and within easy “striking distance” of Baltimore and Philadelphia.  This increasingly well attended event will feature 35 selective exhibitors offering an impressive range of 18^th and 19^th century American and English period and country furniture and accessories, including fine early china and glassware, Oriental carpets, Chinese export porcelain, English accessories such as tea caddies, fireplace equipment, and estate jewelry, among much more.  According to manager, Melvin L. Arion, Rehoboth has built a solid reputation as a “collector and dealer show,” meaning both collectors and visiting antiques dealers can find reasonably priced merchandise.  Arion has done an excellent job of bringing together exhibitors who offer an interesting and diverse mixture of antiques.

     In addition, staging the event the weekend AFTER Labor Day means the summer crowds and heavy traffic are gone, but the warm days and evenings remain.  In other words, it’s an ideal time to plan a weekend “getaway” to Rehoboth, particularly if you love antiques.

     This year there will be 6 new exhibitors: AERIE ART GALLLERY from REHOBATH and JAMES M. KILVINGTON of Dover, DE, JOAN DESSUREAU, Wyndmoor, PA, JIM and RUTH GALLAGHER of NORTH Norwich, NY, DON OSBURN of THE OLD BOARD from Easton, MD, and DEBBIE TURI, Roseland, NJ.

     Show hours both Friday and Saturday are 10A.M. to 6P.M.  Parking is available.  The Convention Center is air-conditioned.  And “good food” will be offered.  In addition, all major credit cards will be accepted, Arion’s way of making it as convenient as possible for show visitors to purchase that one piece they’ve been searching for.

ADMISSION is $6/person, $5 with this article or an ad.
