Auctioneer’s Note: In our 60 years in the Auction business this is one of the best if not the best private collections we’ve had the privilege to sell. Mark your calendars, some of the finest Primitives, Store N.O.S., Stock- Advertisement with the nicest collection of porcelain I’ve seen. If you collect it, we’ve probably got it. There’s no way to list it all, the pictures probably do a better job of seeing the quality & quantity of this collection. In my business you never know what you’re going to see when someone calls. I was all smiles when I opened the door. This is 50 years of collection, there’s no junk. Come prepared to buy. See you at the sale. David, Dusty & Bill.
