Title: National Pinball Museum Closing Auction April 26-27
Post by: tkaz on April 23, 2014, 07:44:34 am
The National Pinball Museum that was in Georgetown DC went out of business this past year and is going to be auctioning off most of the collection in Lancaster, PA this weekend.  Lots of nice soda signs, coin-op machines, gas pumps, and of course pinball machines.

Here's an article on it: http://potomac.patch.com/groups/business-news/p/national-pinball-museum-pieces-on-auction-block-bethesda-chevychase

Here's the auction catalog, lots I'd like (can I borrow some $$ :hopefull: ) http://www.morphyauctions.com/uploads/digitalcatalog/April2627.html

Beautiful, beautiful soda pop pieces. The Coke collection of the late Alfred and Earlene Mitchell of Paducah, KY was amassed  over 50 years of collecting and dealing. They were personal friends of mine and my family and I visited often. I miss them dearly.
