Well, if you didn't already know, my parents, Nancy and Tully Bryant, are antique dealers and gurus. They've been in business 22 years, following in the footsteps of my grandparents, Mette and W.D. Bee, who were in the business for 20 years.
My mother loves the primitive stuff, while Dad's more into the fancies. Mom collects pewter. Dad's a silver hound. Together they have a wealth of knowledge and regulars who sell their estate items to them because they can be trusted to give a fair price.
They used to have a shop of their own, but now B's Balderdash operates with seven booths in an antique mall in Pine Grove, Frontier Antiques. The mall is located at 20200 Hwy 88, in Pine Grove, on the way to Lake Tahoe. If you'd like to stop by and check them out, call the mall at(209)296-3311 for directions. If you're looking for a particular piece, my folks probably have it or know where to look for it, so email them at balderdash@volcano.net.
