This sale draws from a broad range of categories — pottery and porcelain, art glass, silverware, die-cast and scale models, firearms accessories and ammunition, archery equipment, furniture, lighting, tools, and outdoor equipment — making it a compelling destination for collectors, dealers, decorators, and bargain hunters alike. Pre-bidding is open now and will remain available until each lot goes live. A buyer’s premium of 18% applies to cash and check payments made by 4:30 p.m. the Friday following the auction; credit card, PayPal, and other electronic payments carry a 20% premium.

The sale offers exceptional highlights across categories. Lot 174, a 1964 Hess B-Mack Fuel Oil Tanker Truck with its original box, is the first Hess promotional truck ever produced and one of the most sought-after pieces in American toy collecting — accompanied by seven additional lots of vintage Hess trucks in original packaging. Lot 318, a Vintage Colonial Manufacturing Company solid mahogany nine-tube tubular bell grandfather clock, is a premium longcase timepiece whose resonant tubular chime movement elevates it well above standard grandfather clocks. Lots 270–272 offer three Pramac 5500 PowerSystems portable diesel generators fitted with Yanmar engines — practical, high-value equipment suitable for farm, emergency, or commercial use. Lot 97, a Colonial Revival Chippendale-style tiger maple chest of drawers, showcases one of the most prized figured woods in American furniture-making. And Lot 9 brings fourteen vintage 1960s pop and rock vinyl LPs, including titles by The Beatles and The Monkees, to the block for music collectors.
