Bio

Antique Trader, a newspaper published in Iola, Wis., has served the antiques and collectibles community since 1957. Founded by Babka Publishing Co., later to become the flagship of Krause Publications' Antiques division, Antique Trader built its reputation as the premier print vehicle for the buying and selling of antiques nationwide. Its loyal following includes antique dealers, antique show promoters, shop and mall operators, and collectors, some of whom have subscribed to the paper since its inception. Antique Trader provides material that informs, entertains, and attracts readers and collectors by offering coverage about antiques and collectibles through feature articles, recurring columns and auction and show reviews and previews. Features cover a combination of traditional high-end antiques as well as mid-range antiques and collectibles; information on the history of antiques and collectibles; human interest stories relating to antique or collectible categories; and pricing information. Our mission is to expand those offerings to a wider audience with an expanded Web presence, by using book content, and by offering a variety of information retrieval methods while retaining our established base.
