<p>[QUOTE="Drew, post: 255546, member: 3235"]Despite the painting of furniture being popular in Mass., sadly even quality Victorian pieces meet this fate, but there are still purist among us. . a large truck showed up at our local flea market recently, full of 1860-90 walnut furniture, some neat pieces which had been in long term storage. Like locusts, a crowd quickly gathered, and all was sold in less then an hour. Common words among buyers was 'no paint will come near this' ! It was quite a scene, some 30 people vying for 19th C. furniture. It was good.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
