Bertoia Auctions: The Annual Fall Auction

Bertoia’s Annual Fall Auction is always one of the most highly-anticipated events of the year for collectors of toys, banks, advertising or holiday antiques. The lineup of featured collections in this year’s edition, which is slated for November 21-22, offers bidders a level of quality and variety that rivals anything seen in Bertoia’s past pre-Thanksgiving sales. The opening session is packed with rare toys, banks and trains; while the artful selection chosen for Day 2 will usher in the gift- giving season with beautiful Christmas and other holiday antiques, as well as early 20th-century advertising and posters.

The auction’s headliners include Ives and AMRR trains from the personal stash of the late Dale Buchardt including the incredible Kenton Coca Cola truck believed to be the only one known in existence and that Dale coveted as his best toy, prints, posters and automobilia from a renowned pioneer of the toy hobby, Dave Bausch and lithographed paper-on-wood toys from the late Richard Mueller.
