MARKET WARRIORS: Antiquing in Walnut, IA Airs January 7, 2013

Market Warriors Visit to Walnut Airs on Monday, January 7, 2013, 9:00-10:00 p.m. ET

This week the MARKET WARRIORS head to Walnut, Iowa, to the Walnut Antique Show, with a new competitor in the mix. 
The target assignment is gold, and Mark L. Walberg injects some quick wit when one of the pickers goes for a broad interpretation the others aren’t buying. 

A sudden rainstorm that causes most of the dealers to close down shop helps determine who wins and loses. Some key finds include a Herman Miller chair, an aluminum plane and a piece of tramp art (a woodcutting style that involves layers of whittled pieces).
