From Gaslights to the Motor Era

THE JOHN BUCKLEY ESTATE — AUCTION ONE

Nearly 280 lots and counting — and this is only Auction One.

The John Buckley Estate is a true collector's auction, spanning an extraordinary range of categories: vintage automobilia, antique trade stimulators and slot machines, ornate gas lighting, fine walnut furniture, period artwork, vintage tools, architectural pieces, holiday collectibles and plenty of genuine oddities.

Look for radiator cap Moto-Meters, brass automotive headlights, hubcaps and horns; a Stickley tea wagon and carved secretary desk; antique lighting fixtures; early mechanical pieces and the kind of objects that make you stop and ask, "What is that?"
