Title: Incredible auction Oct. 5-6 Post by: vintage-air on October 02, 2012, 08:07:29 am http://www.auctionzip.com/cgi-bin/auctionview.cgi?lid=1476569
Above is the link to an auction with rare and unique items from a collection of over 30 years. Carter van lines was a moving company located here in Indiana and the owner had a passion for old toys and antique items from the 50's. He even built a antique looking museum to house all of his possessions. Some coke stuff and even an antique full size ice cream shop sits inside. Check it out. I plan on going and they are expecting people all over the world to show up. Title: Re: Incredible auction Oct. 5-6 Post by: MCarter on October 02, 2012, 09:03:50 am I have been to that place. This guys has a butt load of stuff. Sorry to see it all broken up.

Title: Re: Incredible auction Oct. 5-6 Post by: collecture on October 02, 2012, 01:47:13 pm I see they are auctioning off a talking tree - could it be a "ticket oak"? :tounge:
I could use one of them! Looks like a great auction, but not my cup-o-tea. Would have liked to visit the museum though... Title: Re: Incredible auction Oct. 5-6 Post by: Kilroy on October 02, 2012, 01:52:27 pm Ok, I'lll ask.... what's a "ticket oak"?
Title: Re: Incredible auction Oct. 5-6 Post by: collecture on October 02, 2012, 02:53:16 pm It was a joke Jim.
A TV commercial for a ticket scalper called StubHub http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=srT4hqYTYz4 Title: Re: Incredible auction Oct. 5-6 Post by: BrianS on October 02, 2012, 09:45:55 pm Now that would be one amazing auction to be at. Fantastic collection of great stuff. If they have multiple rings going at once I don't know how you keep from running back and forth between them trying not to miss something good. If anyone goes, post lots of pics!
