Frequenters of Holabird auctions will recognize names like Ken Prag and Chunlin Zhu, whose collections are being sold on an ongoing basis.Day 1, on Friday, March 2nd, will be arguably the busier of the two days, if the sheer number of categories is any gauge. Up for bid will be items in a staggering 28 categories, to include art, general foreign, spoons and flatware, glassware and bottles, salon and tobacciana, general collectibles, tools, Native Americana, cowboy, weapons and firearms, military and political. Also up for bid will by fraternal organizations, firefighting memorabilia, ephemera (sorted by geography), musical and entertainment, sports, photography, World’s Fair and Expositions, antique maps, toys, books, numismatics, tokens and medals, ingots, minerals, mining and mining stocks.
