WILMINGTON, Ohio – The charm and simplicity of early American country décor will fill the Montgomery exhibit hall when the Ohio Country Antique Show returns to the Roberts Centre on Saturday, Oct. 20, from 9 a.m.-4 p.m.
Now in its eighth season of semi-annual sales, this specialized “traditional and primitives” presentation celebrates the region’s rural, small town past. Featuring 50 dealers from several states, Ohio Country is firmly established as an important resource for homeowners, restoration professionals, decorators and collectors from the Midwest and beyond.

The show and sale’s reputation is built on a solid offering of authentic antique furniture in styles ranging from colonial era formal to 19th century farmhouse rustic.
Colorful, original painted surfaces are an Ohio Country hallmark. Accessories include wooden and stonewares; quilts and coverlets; paintings, lithographs and folk art; early advertising and ephemera; period toys and children’s items; plus, garden and architectural artifacts. All merchandise offered for sale is guaranteed as represented.
There will be no preview or early buying period. Adult admission is $6 and parking is free. Complete Ohio Country Antique Show information is available from manager Bruce Metzger at 513-738-7256.

My office is located in an antique mall in Franklin, KY, not too far from Ohio. Before I began working for Peerascope, I didn’t realize how big the antique industry was! I think this show will be very successful with all of the dealers present. I know that most “antiquers” love to find new places, and what better place to find new antique websites and location than Peerascope? Peerascope not only has an antiques category, but many other categories that antuquers love as well, such as travel, books, food, and creativity that have hundreds of new websites within them. Check out Peerascope and find tons of great websites that you’re sure to love!
