BERTOIA SIGNATURE SALE
Sale totals $1.37M

A very special auction featuring three unique single owner collections. The complete Marklin train and accessory collection of Mr Ben Michel who concentrated on American outline 1 gauge examples with an emphasis on hand painted color and quality. This impressive German collection will be accompanied by the long time collection of Frank Mohr. Franks eye for interesting mechanical and scientific items is evident throughout his collection. Franks items offer collectors Automata, American Tin Clockwork Toys, and one of the most complete Fernand Martin collection ever put together! The trifecta of collections is completed by the magnificent Douglas Jackman Still Bank Collection of Stephen Douglas Antiques. A little known secret in the banking community, Doug assembled his collection of nearly 1,000 great examples over the last 40 years.

This is certain to be an important auction and should not be missed by any aficionados of fine quality antiques!
