Ready to start your treasure hunt?
Welcome to the 106th Portland Expo Show.
If so, you'll find plenty of vintage things to take home.
The items in a show filled with things that are no longer being made presents a special challenge. They don't come from a catalog and the people that bring them search high and low. One word of advice: after every show we receive many phone calls from customers who are trying to find the booth that had (fill in the blank). We work to find that exhibitor for you, only to discover that it was sold during the weekend. So the watchword is, buy it when you see it because if you don't it may go to another good home while you're thinking it over.
A new and groundbreaking feature of this show is the Chapter 31 Regional Watch & Clock Mart. This collaboration is a groundbreaking event with the NAWCC (National Association of Watch & Clock Collectors) to combine a 50 year old show with our Antique Show. You'll have a chance to shop for a wide variety of rare watches and clocks and be able to talk to some very
knowledgeable
people about restoration, repair and if you happen to have a few watches or a clock that you'd like to sell, this is a great place to find an extremely
knowledgeable
buyer. The Watch & Clock Show is located on the north side of Hall D (note: Early Admission buyers: The Mart is only open to NAWCC members on Friday from 10am to 2pm. It opens to Early buyers after that. And it's open during all public hours and your Antique Show admission is good for both shows.
If you're looking for a particular category, stop by Keyword Kiosk and check with the operator. We can send you on your way with a printed list of those who have certain things, along with a map showing you the way.
Below are just a few of the really special things that are coming to the show. Get ready to have a great time and again, take home some truly one of a kind items.
