The Antique Advertising Expert Background

The Antique Advertising Expert features a passionate collector, Randy Huetsch, who began his collection over 35 years ago while living in Waterloo, Illinois. His first find was an old soda bottle in a creek bed near his home and he was fascinated about the history of the bottle. Subsequently, Randy went on to attend hundreds of collectible shows, auctions, flea markets, and antique stores as both a collector and a dealer.

Today, Randy’s early Americana advertising collection includes thousands of antique artifacts from many industries. He truly appreciates vintage heirlooms and has earned a highly regarded reputation in the collecting world. As an experienced expert in the field, he is continuously sought after from individuals and organizations that have inherited or found historical advertising pieces.
