Our winter auction event includes around 60 lots of signs including some true rarities like the 42" Kelly Tires sign, as well as some other nice high grade pieces.

Full Catalog is posted at LiveAuctioneers.com and Proxibid.com, call or email us for a free full color catalog.

Signs are towards the end of the auction starting with lot 460.

We do ship signs and we are able to hold them for a while if you can do pick up but can't make it for auction day, call with any questions or if you have special needs.

I should also mention that we can deliver signs won at this auction to Peotone the following weekend, so you could avoid shipping on larger items like the Betholine / Cosden / Ritters Signs in particular, or avoid shipping a rarer item like the Kelly sign or Poll Parrot neon.

Just a quick bump as a reminder that our auction is this Saturday the 28th, the auction will begin at 1pm EST, signs and advertising will probably be up around 4:30-5:00pm.

Live bidding is enabled through LiveAuctioneers.com or Proxibid.com and we can still accommodate phone bids or pre-bids for any lot.

I saw a couple signs in this auction that I liked, but man o man, theres a 17% buyers premium! Even the buyers in attendance pay it. If a person buys anything spendy, you'd sure want to have it figured out ahead of time, as to the costs of that premium!

You can bet money on the reproduction boys going crazy with this kelly tire sign, repop's of all material, shape and size, once they see the price of this one sell.

The Kelly Tires sold for.......sit down......
$75,000!!

With 17% buyers premium, that comes to $87,750!
I was out fishing and the fishing was terrible, so I was wishing I was inside watching the sale! Now I'm glad I stayed out fishing!

Impressive!

a lot of $$$ and no sense, ...

would love to have one of those, maybe that price will bring a few out of the woodwork..

I want to thank everyone who attended / bid in the auction. I understand that many folks think the 17% buyer's premium is too high but as a new auction house it's simply the point where we need to be to just stay in business at this point, we provide a high level of service including full color printed catalogs, multi-platform internet bidding, and full service to our consignors and buyers.

If you will be at Peotone or have someone to pick up your items at the show please email dfenton@manifestauctions.com or call 864-520-2209 to make arrangements as early as possible.

We are offering low consignment rates for early consignments for our next auction scheduled for July 11th, so if anyone has items they would like to get into the next sale please inquire as I will also be picking up items at Peotone.

Thanks!

Kevin, it was something to behold with the bidding! I watched it online.
The first bid was 18,000. It rose in burst and I found myself saying "Wow" out loud as it went higher. The later $5,000 jumps were amazing. Imagine how those in attendance felt!
Congratulations on your auction Dale!!
