47th Annual Show and Sale - Sunday, February 3, 2019
The 2019 Milwaukee Antique Bottle show is history now. The show location was the Waukesha Expo Center which is 30 miles west of Milwaukee. Show chairman Dave Kapsos reported more than 140 dealer sales tables and more than 400 paid admissions. Dealers reported brisk sales and many pieces of rare historic glass and advertising items changed hands.
The show featured a number of exhibits by collectors and several door prizes were awarded.
There were three outstanding presentations. Topics included
- The Waukesha Water Wars by John Schoenknect
- Wisconsin Territorial Merchant Stoneware by Henry Hecker
- The History of Thomas Holmes Girl in the Moon by Linda Hoffman
This show is once per year. A date has not been selected for next years show but at this point it will most likely be held in the same location.
