Скачать или смотреть New England Antiques

This was a roughly-cut television show pilot - for a New England-based antiques show shot in the summer of 2012 at Northeast Auctions Summer Americana Sale in Manchester, New Hampshire. The sale typically achieves a million dollars annually - if not into the millions. The results all depend on what is consigned and sold. At the center of the annual three-day sale is usually at least one important private collection with multiple smaller consignments that surround it. Everyone from museums to private collectors to dealers and family consignments can be a part of the sale.

The idea behind this pilot - was to feature New England's true antique industry with its dealers, collectors and auction houses - but beyond that; flea markets, yard sales (picking), archaeologists, museums, local craftsmen and related fields could all be included in future shows. Everything from archaeological digs and surveys - to old home restoration, private collections and the real faces of New England's antiques industry would be covered in a weekly or bi-weekly or even monthly format. This particular show features scholarly antique dealers - Samuel Herrup, John Newcomer and David Schorsch - along with Ron Bourgeault (auctioneer) and myself, Justin Thomas.
