As the Midwest’s premier antique market, the Burlington Antique Show is celebrating almost four decades of bringing the best antiques and vintage collectibles to the Boone County Fairgrounds.

More than 200 dealers converge the third Sunday of the month (through October) to exhibit and sell their authentic wares — Midcentury Modern, Art Deco, pre-war, Industrial and more.

It’s generally pretty crowded, so if you’re a real hunter, aim for early-bird admission ($6; 6-8 a.m.).

6 a.m.-3 p.m. Sunday. $4 starting at 8 a.m. Boone County Fairgrounds, 5819 Idlewild Road, Burlington, burlingtonantiqueshow.com.
