his sea voyages, or those old
woodworking tools you picked

up at a garage sale? Bring your
treasures and join Al Bowen,

a respected and knowledgeable
Lower Mainland antiques appraiser,
who will inform and delight

you with his amazing knowledge
of antiques of all types. Any
background information and family
stories that you may have
regarding a particular article will
enhance the experience for all.
