A bright red 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 with just 42,143 actual miles on the odometer, and a 1939 Indian “4” Model motorcycle, also bright red, are the expected headliners in Miller & Miller Auctions, Ltd.’s online-only Toys, Motorcycles & Automobilia auction slated for Saturday, December 9th, starting promptly at 9 am Eastern time. The 383-lot auction features the late Howard Meyer Legacy Collection, with categories that include toys, militaria, petroliana, soda advertising, motorcycles, cars and automobilia. “If one word encompasses the late Howie Meyer and his collection, that word would be ‘fun’,” said Ethan Miller of Miller & Miller Auctions, Ltd. “From his coveted 1939 Indian ‘4’ motorcycle to his rare Canadian 1968 Chevelle 396, to his many other ‘toys’ big and small, there is something cool around every corner of the Howard Meyer collection,” Miller said. “His collecting interests ranged from the mid-to-late 20th century. Toy-wise, he amassed a fabulous collection of tin litho and pressed steel cars, trucks and planes.” Themes include Disney, ice cream, Western, space and robots, New York, advertising, and TV comic characters. “Howie’s interests also included World Wars I and II propaganda posters and World War II anti-Axis paraphernalia,” Miller added. “From his pinball machines to his gigantic 8-lane slot car track, to his pair of midget racers, there’s a ‘wow’ factor in every direction.” This is an online-only event, but bidders can tune in to the live webcast on auction day to watch lots close in real time. Internet bidding will be through www.MillerandMillerAuctions.com, plus LiveAuctioneers.com. Phone and absentee bids will be accepted.
