2005 Cambridge Antique Fair

Cambridge Hosts Another Great Show

A sizeable crowd was on hand again for the 14th annual Cambridge Antique Fair.  While a large number of familiar faces were seen, we were happy to see many newcomers on both sides of the table. 

At the open, the lines were deep as usual as collectors and antique hunters poured through the gates.  Over 800 dealers occupying over 325 booths filled the fairgrounds.  While Internet sales of antiques grows with popularity, there is no substitute for the old fashioned way of hunting for treasures and the thrill that accompanies a great find.  Indeed, the Internet introduces more people to the joy of collecting.  The Cambridge Antique Fair has proved to be the perfect place for collectors and dealers to meet, to exchanges stories of neat finds, and to put antiques into the hands of those that appreciate them most.

As always, there was a good selection of antiques to be found, with several new dealers taking spaces this year. A wide variety of antiques and collectibles were represented, including furniture, glassware, postcards, paper goods, souvenir glass, advertising items, toys, pottery, primitives, photographica, home décor items and much more. 

As the good reputation of the Cambridge Antique Fair becomes more nationally known, a broader base of collectors attends the show with serious intentions of bringing home quality items for their collections.  They weren't let down.  Dealers and buyers alike were very pleased with the sales and purchases made at this year's Cambridge Antique Fair.  Serious and casual collectors and antique hunters will find an excursion to the 2006 show most certainly worth their while.

The food vendors offered some of the best food to be found at any antique show.  Aside from the usual hamburgers and hot dogs, buyers could consume taco salad, cheese curds, corn dogs, ice cream and a lot of other delicious tidbits.
