From milk glass and wicker patio furniture to retro Steelers shirts, cutoff jean shorts and a cardboard box loaded with old vinyl records, there was no end to the variety on display Sunday during the Downtown Greensburg Project’s Vintage Market, held at the Westmoreland Museum of Art parking lot. This is the first year for the market, and it will take place monthly downtown. “There’s a lot of stuff from when I grew up, as well as my grandparents’ era,” said Karen Hix of Lowber, who’d already found herself a black-and-white-striped top before meeting up with her daughter, Tammie Neyman of Greensburg, at the market.
Neyman, sporting an old-school pair of cloth floral-patterned overalls, heard about the market through Instagram. “There’s a lot of these in the area, in Ligonier and Greensburg,” Neyman said. Hix said her home is chock full of items from several of the eras present among vendor offerings.
“Our house is decorated with stuff my grandfather made, things that have been in our family for generations,” Hix said. “I have one of our family’s rocking chairs, and Tammie has the other at her house. I love the history behind this type of stuff.
