In turn, more and more dealers are stocking their booths and shops with some pretty interesting pieces. If you find antiques from the 1930s to be appealing, or just like learning about old furniture in general, don't miss my updated feature: Depression Era Furniture Shares "Antique" Limelight.

I’ve emailed several auctioneers on LI, and one responded “There’s not much interest in antiques from that era. My web site (URL) shows what we’ve been trying to sell/auction off. Any suggestions?

Thanks for your time.
