If it’s old, it’s gold at three upcoming vintage sales.

First up is Salvage, to be held Saturday at Ambient Plus Studio south of downtown Atlanta. And right behind it this fall are the Revival, Sept. 27-28 outside Decatur High School in Decatur; and the Country Living Fair, Oct. 24-26 at Stone Mountain Park.

Here’s a quick look at what those with a lust for rust will find:

Curating the show “gives us a chance to celebrate the best parts of the past,” Indie Craft co-founder Christy Petterson said. “Salvage takes the hard part out of thrifting — we’ve done the digging for you.”

DJ Zano will crank the tunes, there will be a photo booth and food trucks will set up by the studio entrance.

11 a.m.-6 p.m. Saturday at Ambient Plus Studio, 585 Wells St S.W., Atlanta. $5; ages 12 and under, free. www.salvageatl.com.

Also: free expert-taught seminars, live music and vintage-inspired food.

10 a.m.-5 p.m. Sept. 27-28 in front of Decatur High School, 310 N. McDonough St., Decatur. Free. (Free parking at DeKalb County Courthouse deck at East Trinity Place at Commerce Drive.) www.therevivalofvintage.com.

Plus: seminars and how-to’s, artist demonstrations, Harvest & Gourmet Market and Country Living store.

10 a.m.-5 p.m. Oct. 24-26. at Stone Mountain Park. $13; weekend pass, $15. (plus park parking pass). www.countryliving.com/cl-fair/country-living-fair-atlanta
