NOTE FROM THE FAMILY: For the last quarter of a century our family has embraced our auctioning habit. Though we did try our hand in the business area of antiquing, clearly we preferred the buying more than the selling. This is not an auction of left-overs, but of a broad collection turned personal. From Las Vegas to Luxembourg and Missouri to Munich, and passionate about eclectic collectables, we sought out only the most unique of estates from which to procure our items. Their provenance brought us such joy and we would be happy to share it with you. Our family is proud to offer this auction.
