Saxonville Auctions will be selling Antique & Collectible Toys April 29, 2006 featuring vintage Wind-up and TIn Litho toys, Fisher price, Prototypes of Character collectibles, Promo Cars and lots more.
Early Antique Toys include a Locomotive HIllclimber from the 1890s, a German made windup tin Battleship and 1950s Japanese tin Car, Bus, Jeep and Motorcycle.
An artist formerly with Applause has consigned a selection of prototypes of merchandise from Nightmare Before Christmas, Muppets and other character collectibles.
The Fisher Price collection of Play Family Toys in their boxes includes the Amusement Park, Airport and Circus.
There are over 20 lots of Edsel, Ford and Chevy Promotional cars that were given by dealers to consumers, many in their original boxes.
This is a different kind of auction, as bids will be from left bids, phone bids and Internet bidding through the http://www.proxibid.com/ interactive auction system. You will hear the voice of the auctioneer prompting you to continue to bid online, just like being there in person. Bid from the comfort of your own home or office. The catalog will appear on proxibid.com with pictures and descriptions prior to the live preview, and Internet bidders will be able to bid in real time with fabulous "one click" bidding.
There will be a live, in-person preview on Friday April 28 from 4:00 until 7:00 p.m. and on Saturday April 29 from noon until 6:00 p.m. where interested parties can see and touch the catalogued items, and can leave Left Bids to be entered on their behalf during the real time auction. Those who are extremely interested in certain items can request to be on the phone during the sale of those items. Everyone who participated in the past auctions expressed enjoyment with the system.
There is a 15% buyers’ premium, 5% sales tax for MA residents, with pick-up available for those wishing to save on the shipping and handling expenses, and there are many lots for dealers who sell in shops or online.
The auction facility is operated by Gary Sohmers, proprietor of Wex Rex Collectibles, and frequent talk show host/guest, who also happens to appear as an appraiser in collectibles, toys, pop culture and memorabilia on the Emmy nominated PBS TV series “Antiques Roadshow.”
An all Cap Gun and Toy Gun Auction will be on on May 20th.
