Detail of portrait by Kentucky Artist, Harvey Joiner, 1852-1932. Up for Auction at Sohn’s this weekend.
Just because the art world is on fire doesn’t mean that every artist will have his work available for sale in the market. Why is this important to know?
Let’s take Kentucky artist, Harvey Joiner for example. Though he […]

The Antique & Collectible Market has a long way to run before the steam goes out of it. With the dollar collapsing and real estate in a free fall in many markets, where else are you going to put your money?
Right now, foreigners are buying the best and highest quality Antiques […]

I find surprises come at the most unexpected times and places.
I intended to meet Outsider Artist, Doug Odom and his wife at the “One of a Kind Show” at Chicago’s Merchandise Mart at around 10:00am, and then spend the rest of the day at the show. Finding an open parking space just one […]

Do you have loose, ungraded silver coins or other scrap silver that you’ve been saving? With the high price of silver these days, I think this just might be the right time to consider selling them.

Yesterday, I introduced you to Spatterware and the exciting prices that can be achieved if you find the right pieces. I hope you didn’t go rushing off to buy something and ended up with Spatterware’s poor cousin, Spongeware.

Today’s Guy in the Red Tie Blog by Daryle S. Lambert
From my days as a trader, I have learned that the best time to buy is when others are selling. This is called being a contrarian. There will always be a time to buy everything, and this just might be the time for Depression Glass.
