Wilma Murray Antique Collection

One of the early dealers at Heart of Country and other good antique shows, Wilma Murray liked old painted surfaces, primitive and country pieces. She retired 5 years ago and has just recently moved from her dream home to a smaller residence. As a result, not everything will fit into the new house and she is offering without reserve part of her collection. These are items from her personal residence and are in good ready to use condition. This auction is being held at the Murray residence, free shuttle service from Tuesday Morning in Western Plaza on Kingston Pike in Knoxville, Tenn. There is no on site parking, you will be towed for parking in the street.
