But Albert Meadow Antiques on Captiva in its quaint pink cot- tage with flowered window boxes is hard to miss and shouldn't be missed by those looking for personal antique treasures. David Doherty and Josephine Anderson operate the shop across from the Bubble Room which is open seasonally from Dec. 26 through April. To accommo- date locals and visitors, they are open every day of the week from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. During the summer they operate a sister shop in Boothbay Harbor, Maine. The name came from their first shop in Maine which was, indeed, located on Albert Meadow street. Albert Meadow Antiques bills itself as "a gallery devoted to the romance of the turn of the century." Ninety five percent of the store's items are from 1880s to the 1930s which includes Edwardian, Art Nouveau and Art Deco styles. All items come with a period guarantee. They specialize in art glass, American art pottery, fine sterling and estate jewelry.
