Bertoia Auctions Delivers 2.2 Million
Dollars in Recent Toy Feast Sale |
World wide attention catapulted Bertoia Auctions November 18,19,20 Toy Feast Sale over the two million dollar mark, making the three day event one of the years most talked about highlight auctions to date. An impressive line-up of fresh quality toys, banks, dolls, and trains from prominent collections created a toy interest stir that will certainly not soon be forgotten by the well attended following of collectors. Jeanne Bertoia stated she knew it was going to be a stellar auction months before the actual sale date, as she and her brother- in- law Rich Bertoia, began to acquire some really incredible collection offerings. They were both enthused that great collections were coming in very fast, and it became apparent that November’s sale was going to be very special indeed… well it was! |
