The "Spin Zone" at American Antiquities - #1 Our Shop

Welcome to the “Spin Zone” at American Antiquities. This is the first in a series of short serialized blogs to spread the word about American Antiquities. YouTube, Facebook and Twitter will complement our project, which will culminate with a free DVD of all the archived information chronicling the evolution of our business.

This first blog starts at the beginning, mid-year 1993, with the opening of The American Antiquities Gallery.  The Gallery is a joy to operate and has revealed opportunities we would not have seen otherwise.  In addition to directing our growth, our shop has provided extra insight for devising and evaluating new services for our clients.  I have often said, “If we had not opened an antiques and collectibles shop, we would probably not have the media business we enjoy today.”  In sum, our shop was the start of it all.
