Spooktacular Auction: Session 2

Welcome to our Halloween Sale! We continue to get in marvelous collections of Americana from all over the country. Keep them coming!!! As many of you have seen, we have found new ways to increase visibility on the internet, which has risen our number o0f competitive bidders by over 30% lately. Our stockpile of registered bidders is one of the largest in America, and we are all thankful to you all for participating in our exciting auctions. This sale features some amazing one of a kind rarities, and also brings to market several long awaited collections. Perhaps the top item in the sale is the Pierce Powell copy of the all-time #1 ?psychedelic? rock n roll poster, the Charlatans at the Red Dog Saloon, Virginia City. Long on display in his personal home, Powell?s personal copy of this historic event is now offered. We were unable to verify if this is the only copy, or one of two known. Regardless, if you are a rock n roll collector, it is the all-time #1 poster. The auction features the collections of Ken Prag, Salvatore Falcone and John Reynolds.
