Beginning this coming Friday and running through the next ten days the bi annual Friendship flea markets and NMLRA championship shoot will be open for fall 2017. The Flea Market at the east end of town has drawn many African bead dealers to include Bully Jawara and others for near thirty years. There are a wealth of beads and bead related treasures to peruse and purchase at several locations in town. I will be set up as usual on the NMLRA grounds in space 54 of the commercial area just inside the gate. Access to Friendship from the west on highway 62 is closed due to a landslide but the Olean Road is open from the little town of Olean on hwy 421 which is actually a little shorter route from Versailles. The east access via highway 62 from Dillsboro is open. Friendship is in a beautiful valley setting just 50 miles from Cincinnati on US 50 then down into the little dale on Indiana 62. It is rare to visit the Friendship event and not find treasures to take home.
Bully and the other African dealers almost always stay the whole event. Due to other obligations I will only be there from Thursday Sept 7 To Wednesday the 13th.
This is great chance to see a lot of bead treasure in a very accessible location in middle America.
This beauty came to me at Friendship a couple of years back. ;-}
