The “ORIGINAL 183rd SEMI-ANNUAL YORK ANTIQUES SHOW & SALE” is scheduled for Friday and Saturday, September 20 and 21, 2024 at MEMORIAL HALL EAST, located within the York FairgroundsConvention & Expo Center, 334 Carlisle Avenue, York, Pennsylvania 17404. This extremely popular event will feature 60 carefully screened exhibitors in room settings offering an impressive breadth of antiques, including 18th and 19th century period American and English furniture, American country pieces in original paint and decoration, fine early porcelain and pottery, quilts, hooked rugs, samplers, and other textiles, lighting, vintage holiday items, including Halloween and Christmas treasures, historic ephemera, early kitchen and fireplace items, Native American artifacts, pueblo pottery and baskets, estate jewelry, vintage toys and woodenware. Because of the small turnover at York, show visitors have the opportunity to get to really know the dealers from whom they’re buying. For instance, this edition has three former exhibitors who are returning to the show: Frank Gaglio, Rhinebeck, N.Y., Firehouse Antiques of Galena, Md., and Toby Chittum from Petersburg, Va.
Melvin L. Arion, show promoter, does an outstanding job of assembling top-notch participants, while keeping the variety as broad as possible to ensure that nearly anyone can find a “new” treasure at York. In addition, all major credit cards are accepted for both admission and buying.
Because of the superb over-all quality of merchandise offered here, theYork Show is considered one of THE PREMIER antiquing events in the mid-Atlantic region! Also, according to Arion, it’s the second oldest antiques show in the entire country.
