Arizona <strong>Antique</strong> Shows, continued from page 3...<br />

Wanda says the fact that many compliments from both<br />

exhibitors and customers come in after every show is a true<br />

testimonial to this. “Amazingly, every walk of life could come<br />

through our door and I can’t think of any one person who will<br />

tell you we aren’t one of the most professional and courteous<br />

shows in the industry,” she adds.<br />

Dealers visiting the shows bring an array of merchandise<br />

that spans from tin or toys, ephemera, and retro period items to<br />

fabulous pieces of artwork; Tiffany and other high quality art<br />

glass, porcelains, pottery<br />

and estate jewelry to early<br />

Americana, primitives,<br />

mercantile items, and<br />

costume jewelry. <strong>The</strong>re<br />

is wonderful furniture in<br />

addition to fine linens and<br />

even vintage Christmas<br />

ornaments. A customer<br />

can conceivably find $5<br />

items or easily spend in<br />

the tens of thousands<br />

if their hearts so<br />

desire. This is no longer<br />

a show filled with beanie<br />

babies and hot wheels. <strong>The</strong> Phoenix <strong>Antique</strong> Market is truly<br />

an antique market and a buyer’s dream. Wanda says she knew<br />

their Phoenix <strong>Antique</strong> Market gained the industry’s respect<br />

that she and her family worked so very hard for when major<br />

periodicals like Country Home or the upcoming USA Today’s<br />

weekend edition feature the Phoenix <strong>Antique</strong> Market with<br />

articles on the shows.<br />

An exhibitor such as Kent Monken who has moved to<br />

Arizona from the East coast and was a regular at prominent<br />

east coast shows from the Pier to Brimfield is now a regular at<br />

the Phoenix <strong>Antique</strong> Market. Visit Kent’s booth and you will<br />

have the opportunity to purchase Daum Nancy, Roseville,<br />

artwork or fabulous Victorian jewelry to name just a few.<br />

You can find quality art including Salvador Dali from<br />

Rudolph Curiel, a noted art dealer from California. Rudolph<br />

is also a professional art and antiques appraiser and offers his<br />

services at the shows or upon home visits. This doesn’t mean<br />

you won’t find western favorites like primitives, mercantile<br />

or western items or beautiful dolls since there are plenty if<br />

you visit Bob Minor from Arizona or Evelyn Brannock from<br />

Nebraska. <strong>The</strong>re are always the regulars who have exhibited<br />

over many years and have given Robert and Wanda their<br />

loyalty and stuck with the shows to help rebuild them. Betty<br />

McDonald from Globe is returning for the November<br />

show along with friend and dealer/shop owner, Cheryl<br />

Brazell. Other regulars include Ray Ramirez, Bob and Genie<br />
