History

Antiques was founded in 1922.[1] The magazine underwent a complete redesign in 2009. The head-of-title note "The Magazine" first appeared in January 1928, but was not used between August 1952 and February 1971.

The publication claims a readership of 150,000 and was previously published by Brant Publications, a company founded in 1984 by Peter M. Brant,[1] a newsprint magnate and art collector.

Historian Wendell Garrett, later an appraiser on Antiques Roadshow, served as the magazine's editor from 1972 to 1990.[2] He remained editor at large until his death in 2012.[2]

Antiques is currently edited by Gregory Cerio, the sixth editor since the publication’s founding. He has a degree in English literature from Washington College in Chestertown, Maryland, and previously worked as a senior features editor for House & Garden magazine from 1998 to 2007 and was founding editor of Modern magazine from 2009 to 2012.
