THE 2nd ANNUAL MEISTER MARKT

SPRING ANTIQUES & COLLECTABLES
SHOW & CAR BOOT SALE
SATURDAY, APRIL 23 – 8am-4pm

Are you looking for spectacular antiques and collectables? Antique season officially begins with the 2nd Annual Meister Markt Spring Antiques and Collectables Show and Car Boot Sale on Saturday, April 23 at the Markham Fairgrounds, 10801 McCowan Road (NE Corner of McCowan and Elgin Mills) from 8am-4pm, rain or shine.

With over 150 vendors selling all types of cool and unique antiques and collectables in over 43,000 square feet of indoor space and 150,000 square feet of outdoor space, there’s sure to be something for everyone at the Meister Markt. Find vintage advertising for a loft space, rustic Canadiana items for the cottage, a beautiful mid-century lighting fixture for a condo or perhaps a solid oak bookcase for a home office. This show offers the ultimate in green living and recycling.

Vendors include: Andrew Zegers (Murano glass and 1920's-70's collectables); Brian Greer (Tin ceilings); Sauble Beach Antiques, formerly Red Indian Art Deco (1930's-70's collectables and art deco); Settler's Way Antiques (Canadiana, native art, primitives); Patty George Pressed Glass (1880's glass); Alan Hoyt Antiques Markham; Quinte Antique Mall; Breakaway Antiques (antique tools); The Nostalgia Guy (collectable tin toys); and Blemora Antiques (Native antiques and art) to name a few.

The many vendors will be showcasing many other antiques and collectables including military antiques, native art, antique sporting goods, Canadiana, vintage advertising materials, reclaimed wood, salvaged building materials, windows, ladders, wood boxes, vintage textiles, art deco antiques, mid-century antiques, pine furniture, tools, jewelry, watches, coins, gold, marbles, toys, vintage clothing and bakelite.

A traditional English style market that’s now arrived in Canada, the Car Boot area features people selling their old stuff right out of the back of their cars. These vendors are non-professionals, who have amassed too many antiques and collectables and, for only $40, get to clear out their homes, garages and attics, perfect for people who are downsizing.

Admission is $5 (kids 12 & under are FREE with an adult), with lots of FREE parking. Visit the Meister Markt show office and fill out a voucher to receive a coupon worth 25% off multiple purchases. For additional information, visit www.meistermarkt.com or call 416-427-8379.
