Tamaqua Historical Society to Hold Antique Appraisal Fair

The Tamaqua Historical Society will host its first ever, Antique Appraisal Fair, on Sunday September 10, from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM in the Annex of the Tamaqua Area Historical Museum at 114 West Broad Street in downtown Tamaqua.   

The Antique Appraisal Fair will feature Charlette Schneck, a certified antique appraiser from the Lehigh Valley who will look at, identify, and give an estimate of value on antique items that are brought to the Fair by the public. Everyone is welcome to bring up to three antiques for appraisal and there will be a five-dollar charge per item appraised. All proceeds benefit the Tamaqua Historical Society. 

Items excluded from the Antique Appraisal Fair include sports collectible cards, fine art, and firearms. All other antique items, even if you don’t know what it is, are welcome! Don’t miss this fun event hosted by the Tamaqua Historical Society, and find out what those antiques in the attic were used for and what they are worth!
