Antique dealer Gusler returns to Bluefield with The Ugly Duckling
Hal Gusler, 59, opens The Ugly Duckling antique shop on Federal Street in downtown Bluefield, reviving a long career spanning Bland County to New York and Washington. He recounts starting at 13 in a Tazewell flea market, restoring pieces, and plans a social hub with high end items, coffee space, and collaboration with nearby Landmark Antiques to boost downtown appeal.
