Terms

Not a lot of rules at my sales. Come, have fun and look. We only require that you do not pull any tags unless you are 100% certain you are buying that item. This is necessary to keep all items available to other potential buyers. We do not allow you to carry or hoard items for the same reason. It is not fair to the owners or other shoppers.
Otherwise:
1. All kids are welcome but please leave your dogs elsewhere.
2. Try not to break stuff but no one can make you pay for a broken item anyway so I don't even bother trying. I probably should have sat it somewhere else anyway.
3.My staff WILL try to help you load your big or heavy items but you may have to come back when the rush is over. (I am older than I used to be so I appreciate it if you can arrange to bring help to load.) We cannot assume responsibility for any damage to the item or vehicle if we help you load. We usually have ample boxes and clean wrapping paper.
4. You know not to steal but lots of people don't seem to think that moving items from one box lot to another is theft. It is. I probably won't prosecute you but I will likely embarrass you in front of people.
5. I never sell anything before the start of the sale so no need to even ask.
6. There will be no discounts at all on Saturday.

AN INCREDIBLE ESTATE TAG SALE

Steve Minor Estate Liquidations and BNJ Appraisals are proud to offer this unique estate and collection

Born in Spring Hope, A. L. (Al) Honeycutt, Jr., earned his bachelor's and master's degrees in history from Duke University. In 1958, he joined the historic sites staff of the North Carolina Department of Archives and History. From 1963 to 2002, Mr. Honeycutt was a restoration supervisor with the North Carolina Division of Archives and History, working with restoration projects throughout the state including the State Capitol, the Executive Mansion, and a number of important house museums. Throughout his long career, he received many awards and recognitions, including the Order of the Long Leaf Pine.

Al was also a lifelong collector of many types of antiques. He was widely recognized as an expert in early glass, especially early handblown glass, and he put together a huge collection of glass, early ceramics, marbles, and many other genres. Because he was an antiques dealer for many years, we are able to include a portion of his hand-selected inventory in this sale.

Since there are few collections of this quality and breadth remaining, we are unlikely to see any like this one on the market again. We feel certain you will never have another opportunity to select from this volume of rare antiques. Please do not miss this unique sale. Despite the quality of the collection, our prices are reasonable and we plan to empty this home in four days. As friends and associates of Al's, we feel privileged to conduct this sale--we hope to see you there.
