"I'm writing everyone I know in the UK asking for Wm and Marys." ELINOR PENNA
Elinor Penna is probably the most recognized collector and dealer in Staffordshire figures in the US and the UK. Holiday Antiques Show in Williamsburg is fortunate to be able to feature Ms. Penna, her knowledge and her collection and offer them for sale to local collectors.  FANSHAWE BLAINE Victoria Brock and Amanda Harmon trade as Fanshawe Blaine. They describe their business as "an ecclectic mix of English, European and Eastern 17th, 18th & 19th century antiques, furnishings & textiles for today's interiors." Holiday Antiques Shows welcomes these two young women with their updated look, unusual merchandise and great personalities.
"Quality Hooked rugs have finally come into their own as being works of art and investment pieces that appreciate
with time". JOE CAPUTO The Farnsworth Museum in Rockland, Maine features a hooked rug exhibit
of forty rugs with five examples from the collection of Joe Caputo. Eleven rugs owned by Karen
Grindle and Joe Caputo are featured in two of Mildred Peladeau's books on hooked rugs. New to the antiques show circuit, Holiday
Antiques Show is happy to feature the "art underfoot" of CAPUTO-GRINDLE.
