Dr. Barry and Delores Free of Illinois attended auctions conducted by Woody Auction for many decades. The joy they received from collecting antiques was obvious to any who knew them. In fact, you probably saw them at one of our events in the 90's and 2000's. The auction is being held live and in-person on April 1 and will feature 430 choice items. The automated online only auction on March 31 will feature over 670 lots remaining from their collection. Their total private collection of items exceeded 1100 individual lots and is filled with quality American Brilliant Cut Glass, Art Glass, Mt. Washington, Crown Milano, Royal Worcester, and more. Attending this auction will be a trip down memory lane! Don't miss out on the online only auction on 3/31/23 and you can pick those items up when you attend the April 1 auction in person. As always at Woody Auction, there are NO RESERVES. There is also no Buyer’s Premium (BP) for those in attendance (when paying with cash or check) and no sales tax at this auction when you bid in person! Make your plans today to attend in person or bid online.
