Decades Before Antiques Roadshow, There Was HADA The Country Gentleman’s Larry N. Bahn, HADA president and exhibiting dealer, reflects upon the show’s venerable 46-year history: “Established 1964, HADA is the oldest antiques association in America. The first HADA show was held at the old Shamrock Hotel, then it moved to the Albert Thomas Convention Center and finally to the George R. Brown. It was founded by dealer/collectors Helen York, Carolyn Thompson, Jessie Matthews and William Peyton. Noted Houston antiquarians Miss Ima Hogg and the Mastersons all attended. Furniture, paintings and objects of art acquired at HADA have gone into important private collections and museums including Bayou Bend and Rienzi. What has remained the same throughout nearly 50 years? The quality of the offerings, the integrity of the dealers and the tireless efforts of HADA members to encourage collecting and interest in antiques.”
