A shopper looks over a painting at J&J.

Things were hot in Brimfield. And we are not referring to just the hot and humid weather over the week of July 10‱5, as dealers reported good sales from opening day on Tuesday at the Brimfield Acres North and Dealer’s Choice fields, straight through until Saturday at J&J Auction Acres. Good crowds, good merchandise †lots of it at good price points, combined with the sunny weather made for a stellar summertime event. Vendors and shoppers alike seemed pleased with the shows †dealers wrapping things up and shoppers making runs back to the car with their purchases. These photos are merely a teaser of the coverage to come. Our complete Brimfield article will appear in next week’s issue.
