It's the year 2520, a time of great importance, as the world's
population anticipates the return of Halley's Comet. Beginning at
the Park Avenue Amory Antiques show in New York City, and ending at
the Hamptons Summer Classic on Long Island, Antique Showtime traces
the antics and adventures of a group of antique dealers navigating
their way through an increasingly uncertain world. John Meyer, a 25
year veteran of the antique business, offers an incredibly
insightful, yet humorous, account of the trade. On top of that, he
weaves in a murder mystery, a love story and philosophical Taoist
musings. Despite the futuristic setting, Meyer shows that human
nature remains the same throughout the ages. Anyone who has ever
visited an antique show, or better yet worked at one, will revel in
the novel's hilariously eccentric characters and situations, For
those who haven't, let John Meyer be your insider guide to the
weird and wild world of the antique-show business.
