You are invited to a unique Grand Opening of a very unusual type of business. Take part in some of the greatest savings on used, new, antique, unfinished, estate furnishings and accessories we will ever offer! The historic Odd Fellows building at 112 S. McLean, across from the courthouse door, on the square in Lincoln, has been transformed into a multi-level shopping experience. The new "Lincoln Antique and Furniture Center" is patterned after its owner's 33-year-old "Chestertown Antique and Furniture Center" in Maryland. Not only a major liquidator of estates in Maryland and auction company (Maryland Shore Auctioneers) for over 30 years, but also a manufacturer of furniture as well. After just one visit, you’ll be back again and again. Prices so low you won’t believe it! Bring your wagon, pickup truck, trailer or whatever -- and save! Save! Save! Look at some of these savings...
