this sign went for $30,000.



this went for $7,500


funny story about the playboy. The announcer mentioned that they found that magazine, buried in a stack of paper in the back of the aa bus/paddy wagon.

I really wanted these, but not at $1,200.


thought this was cool, was on one of the model a coupes.


the auction was an experience. I got to see a lot of very cool things that i have never seen before, even after wandering hershey four times. Saw and met a lot of great people, heard some great stories as well.

I only bought a pair of 1915 il license plates on friday, i overpaid for them but eh, would have been disappointed if i didn't get something out of the auction.

Overall, well worth the price of admission and a great collection that will now be spread all around the world for others to enjoy.
