As you may know we held a major auction last month in Baltimore and the results were wonderful. The combined bids of those who attended in person together with the many mail, phone, and Internet bids caused prices to rise above estimates and created a new level for the market. We enjoyed similar success at our New York Americana sale in January.
I feel the opportunity is coming to take advantage of the market forces as they now exist. Surely it will remain until after the summer or early fall and we suggest that you consider the possible sale of your collection. I hope you accept this as advice and opinion based on my long time experience. Over the years we are happy to keep in touch with our clients and help them with their collections in any way we can — to be there when we are needed either for buying, selling, or advice.
