NEWSLETTER - February 2010
 
About this month's newsletter
 

Our first newsletter was published six years ago this month. One of our primary reasons for initiating our monthly mailings was to be under pressure to keep our website up to date. It has not only achieved that objective, but also has enabled us to reach buyers from coast to coast and from as far away as Europe. Although its appearance has changed from time to time, its basic goals - information, visual interest, and good humor - have not. As we begin our seventh year of publication, we're optimistic about our future and the prospects for our business.

 
Our first show of 2010, Marvin Getman's Boston Antiques and Design Show and Sale, was a grand success - our best away-from-home show since May 2008. Our Winter show schedule continues this month with shows in Tolland, Connecticut and Concord, Massachusetts. There's more information on these two fine shows later in this newsletter.
 

We hope that you'll follow some of the links in this newsletter to the latest new stock listings, our shop and show schedules, and other items of interest, including two pictorial pieces designed to relieve the winter doldrums. Enjoy your visit.

A Day on Bodmin Moor

Bodmin Moor
Not far from St. Agnes, where we spent a relaxing week last October, is the desolate Bodmin Moor, an 80 square-mile expanse of rock and low vegetation in the northeast of Cornwall. Read Read more . . .
 Another food story

 waffles

 We're happy to note that many have enjoyed reading about our annual New Year's Eve feast. At the risk of appearing to be inaugurating a monthly food column, we offer this satisfying and deliciously entertaining tale of the reincarnation of a disused kitchen appliance from the past.
