The Friends of the Beach flea market attracts collectors and curious people

The all-commerce fair organized every summer by the Friends of the beach asserted itself as an appointment for collectors and bargain hunters. On a sunny Sunday, exhibitors were numerous in the village of Vierville, where some of the visitors to the beach stopped.

Individuals offered books, clothing, fishing equipment and various objects. The second-hand dealers presented in particular brass, furniture, coins and postcards. Early in the morning, collectors carefully examined the stands to find a good deal or a long-sought-after object, at an affordable and often negotiable price.

The afternoon attracted more curious people, ready to buy especially on a crush. For the organizers, the main thing was to succeed in the animation and to give the exhibitors the desire to come back. The association announced an exhibition of old postcards for the following weekend.
