Weekly Thursday Evening Kansas City Estate and Consignment Auction

With more than 1,200 preview pictures posted this week, you can probably guess what kind of auction we have on our hands. It’s a big one, and it’s especially hard to classify — although, come to think of it, most Thursday nights around here are.

Militaria and mid-century décor may provide two of the biggest pulls this week. There’s a strong assortment of military-related material spread throughout the auction, while the mid-century side includes décor, lamps and lighting, furniture, artwork and plenty of smaller pieces worth spotting in the preview pictures. If either category is your thing, spend some time looking through the photos.

But neither tells the whole story. Jewelry is back in the mix, along with clocks and watches, Native American-related pieces, sports memorabilia, artwork, signs and advertising, and some particularly distinctive furniture. Music collectors should take a look, too, with Beatles-related material and other music items scattered through the sale. We also have antique and collectible books, vintage toys and games, model kits, diecast, tools, knives and some coins.

There’s plenty for the glass and pottery crowd, including Waterford crystal, along with glass, porcelain, china and art pottery. We’ve also got photos and ephemera, lamps and lighting, vintage holiday décor — including some great vintage Christmas blow molds — and even some bones thrown into the mix. Because apparently 1,200+ pictures weren’t quite eclectic enough.

And, as always, there’s more we simply can’t call out individually. The preview pictures really are the best way to see this auction - And, as always, there’s more we simply can’t call out individually.
