In 1991 David Huxtable started his international business "Huxtable's Antique Advertising" in a shop in Marylebone, London, where it remained for ten years before moving to Portobello Road, London for a further three years. In 2002 the business name changed to "huxtins.com" and in 2004 the business was relocated to the U.S.A..
Over the last 20 years many of our items have been featured in dozens of major international newspapers and magazines worldwide; including such publications as "Country Living", "Elle Decoration", "The Journal of Antiques and Collectibles" and "The Times". David was also one of the major contributing editors for many years to the well known series of annual publications known as "The Miller's Price Guides".
Many prestigious institutions have invited him to give talks at various locations around the world, most notably the "Antique Advertising Association of America" in Kentucky and "The Football Association" in London.
David has also made many TV and Radio appearances talking about antique advertising items in various countries, including the U.S.A., United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, South Africa, Denmark, and France. David has also supplied information and many items for authors, journalists, museums, shops and restaurants, television programmes and famous movies over the years.
