A warm spring day and the promise of collectables galore brought lots of folks to historic downtown Martinez Saturday for the biannual Peddlers Faire. We made a little video to introduce you to some of the many personalities there. Veteran George May, III shows us what paratroopers wore when they jumped out of planes on D Day. John Humphries, host of “Hidden Treasures” and a living virtual encylopedia on collectables evaluated items for a donation to the Martinez Historical Society. And for us foodies there was Rachael Zavala of the soon-to-open Compass Star, with delightful cured meat sandwiches and other culinary wonders.
