Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: One of the newest and most popular weekend activities at Harborfront is its regular weekly Antique Pickers' Market. Every Sunday between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. hundreds of visitors come to poke through the wares of almost 100 vendors. Buy if you want to; but there are no high-pressure tactics; and admission to the sale itself is free. Here; Bill Hicks (left) and Pam Hicks admire a lamp that may or may not be Tiffany; shown to them by salesperson Bill Fussner.
