The "Original" Warrenton Antique Show and Sale was produced beginning in October 1981 by Smokey & B.J. Renck. 2026 begins our 45th year and 86th Antique Show.
Renck Antiques Shop was located across Hwy 237 from the Warrenton Grocery Store at the Renck Residence.
Three dealers were in Renck Yard and 9 dealers on Renck Field.
There were no other show venues in Warrenton, Texas in 1981.
Renck Hall was moved from Fayetteville, Texas to the Renck property site in April 1992. The Hall was built in 1932 and purchased from the Ray Baca family. The Antique show opened in Renck Hall - October 1992. Today the Renck Hall continues the legacy of B. J. Renck with the Semi-annual Antique Shows.
The Antique Show has expanded over 45 years with town landowners renting their fields, front yards and buildings to vendors from all over the United States. The Antique Show venues in & around Warrenton have continued to expand the last 45 years.
Thousands of visitors/shoppers come to Warrenton, Texas and surrounding towns every Spring and Fall.
