Mercer-Smith Auction's Blog

Hello Everyone who may be stopping by!
Tomorrow, Sunday’s auction is so unique and exciting. We see so many objects in our world, it is great when we hear words like “unique”, “unmusal” and “great sale” during our previews. We strive for it actually and we are delivering on this one. The variety is daunting. Many one of a kind objects, autographs of the golden age of baseball to our age of Michael Jordan, Larry Bird and Magic Johnson! We have fine glass, good antique furniture, exceptional ephemera, jewelry, nautical and maritime collectibles. There is even a New York City Street Piano on its original cart. Sorry the monkey didn’t make it!
We’ve a fine arm chair from the Moravian area of North Carolina, Weathervanes from PA, and everything in between. Much of the artwork featured has been in storage for twenty to forty years. Many good mid-century works on paper. If you can’t tell, I’m very excited about this sale. Don’t miss it. It is going to be a very good day!

There are some great unusual objects in this one. We are continuing to excavate the Michael Bernholz estate from the decade old storage facility! Michael always had an eye for the fine and unusual.

Happy New Year Everyone!
With the beginning of each year, we look ahead and try to improve and grow. I became painfully aware that I dropped the ball on the blog. So, let’s get it going. It can serve as a place of sharing knowledge, asking questions and an overall attempt to stay in touch. Join me, won’t you?
