JB Sexson Antiques Dealer Retirement Auction – Ends 10/26

After years in the antiques trade, JB Sexson is retiring, and the inventory and personal pieces he's gathered are now heading to auction. It's a dealer's collection in the best sense: pattern glass and salt-glaze stoneware, vintage cameras and toy trains, 19th-century books and framed engravings, all chosen by someone who knew what was worth picking up.

His personal pieces show a lifelong love of horses. Signed bronzes of Arabian horses, a 2003 U.S. National Champion trophy, boxed Breyer models, and framed equine art run all through the sale. Rounding it out are quality consignments, including a 38-star medallion flag, U.S. proof sets, and Navy optics.

Featured lots:

• Peyton Manning autographed Super Bowl XLI Indianapolis Colts Riddell replica helmet with Mounted Memories COA

• "The Gift" bronze Arabian horse, signed Carol Merkle

• "Touch of Class!" bronze horse head by Judy Nordquist, 1990, numbered 6/15

• "Elegance" horse bust by Carol Cunningham, numbered 2/18

• 2003 U.S. National Champion Arabian Ladies Side Saddle English trophy horse

• Studer's Popular Ornithology: The Birds of North America (1878), Theodore Jasper plates, plus its companion volume

• Lionel O gauge No. 685 locomotive and American Flyer passenger set, with original boxes

• Eastman View No. 2 wooden large-format camera

• Breyer Mid-State Exclusive Editions in original boxes

• 38-star American flag with a center-star medallion pattern, sewn stars, and a St. Louis maker's stamp

• 1961 and 1964 U.S. Mint proof sets

Every lot opens at $1. Bidding is online only and lots begin closing Monday, October 26 at 6:00 PM Eastern.
