| Founded in 1993 by Phyllis Bear of Country Heart Promotions, The Medford Armory Show offers collectors an outstanding selection of quality antiques and collectibles by dealers from five states, including turn-of-the-century oak and walnut furnishings, kitchen and country primitives, Victorian colored and art glass, American art pottery, sterling silver and silverplate flatware and hollowware, estate and costume jewelery, watches, fine porcelains and china, toys and dolls, American folk art, paper collectibles (including prints, maps, magazines and books), quilts, clothing and textiles, and slot machines and gambling related items. Special services will include: Doll appraisals by Nancy Korsak of Nurse Nancy’s Doll Hospital, Spokane, Washington; quality repair of damaged glass and china by Philip Lang of Chip Off The Old Block, Dallas, Oregon; and demonstrations of furniture restoration, jewelry and silver cleaning by Bob Halam of E-Z Way Restoration, Burlington, WA. The largest event center in Medford, the Armory is the perfect setting for this popular show. The Medford Armory Show benefits an important local charity, Dogs For the Deaf. Dogs For The Deaf rescues dogs from shelters along with helping people with deafness and other physical and mental challenges. Volunteers from the organization will be present at the Show, giving demonstrations and providing information on their unique and important service to dogs and the disabled community. A drawing for an antique doll, graciously donated by Nurse Nancy’s Doll Hospital, will benefit Dogs For The Deaf. Twin Bridges Antique Productions, promoters of quality events since 1982, was recently asked by Mrs. Bear to take over promotion of the Medord Armory Show. “We are honored to continue promotion of this quality event and to benefit Dogs For The Deaf, a most deserving service organization”, says Carole Berry, Promoter.
