Pier Show – November, 2014

2 Replies

One event that Chris and I look forward to is the New York City Pier Show, which is held twice a year at Pier 94. We always attend it with the same group of friends and it has become a tradition with all of us. One can find almost anything at the show, from very affordable collectibles to extremely high end antiques and jewelry to vintage fashions to steampunk. One of the sponsors of the show is The Art Deco Society of New York, which has a booth just inside the entrance, where you can get information and even sign up for membership. For more information click on the link in blue above.

Here are a few videos from inside the show. I apologize for the less than great quality of the videos; it was my first attempt shooting video. The first video shows a portion of “fashion alley” and the second and third are from the “modernism” section of the show.

We did not come with any real deco treasures, I did pick up a few items from the 1930’s and 1940’s. Click the link below to see this Pier Show purchases.
