EUREKA SPRINGS - The 20 th anniversary of the Fall Antique Show & Sale will be Nov. 15 and 16 in Eureka Springs at the Inn of the Ozarks Convention Center on U. S. Highway 62 West.

There will be many Civil War items on display from a collector who has participated in numerous re-enactments, been a guest on the History Channel and spoken to schools and other groups. He has an extensive collection and knowledge of this historic event. Items included are medical and dental instruments, such as bullet probes, amputation saws," Goodyear "syringes, tooth extractors and other medical tools. This will be of particular interest to medical personnel due to the primitive nature of equipment used during that time. An officer in uniform from the Union Army and an officer in uniform from the Confederate Army will entertain and educate guests. This is a rare opportunity to see such a large collection of swords, guns, ammunition, photos and other items all in one place. The show will also feature a special Wine & Cheese Show and Sale from 5: 30 to 7 p.m. Friday, Nov. 14. Tickets are $ 10 for the entire weekend or $ 2. 50 for either Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. or Sunday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

In addition there will be pottery and China repair available. For information, call 253-7551 or e-mail bakerdj @ cox. net.
