Collector Auction, Thursday June 25
Thursday, June 25, 2009

The Collector Auction now belongs to the ages, in the words of Edwin Stanton, President Lincoln\'s Secretary of War, or was that to the angels, even then the press filled the pages with misquotes. The market remains strong for quality in all categories, despite the daily dire diatribe of disaster you hear on the news each day. If you are interested in any particular bid price of the items sold, please contact us.

This page will remain active as an illustration for this particular type of auction we offer periodically. Now, we start building another Collector, in fact, we have already started. One can hardly wait to see what appears around here next. Thanks to all those who participated. A delightful evening in every way.
