second-hand market which is arranged every year in spring and late autumn. Where else can you as an exhibitor have the
pleasure of meeting so many collectors in a district that has been a Olympic host and where the collector interest has been
so strong. Market especially for the exhibitors on Friday Exhibitors may arrive at Hamar Olympic Hall, Vikingskipet, already on Friday, from early
