Fashion Maven, Collector, Artist, Chef's Estate Sale

Please join us for Jerry's Estate Sale. Jerry was a Retail Maven in New York City in the 1970's and 80's. At the height of his career in the Fashion Industry, he worked at Garan incorporated and was part of the team that invented Garanimals. He had a passion for travel, collecting, entertaining and decorating his home in the Village. 

In 1992 he relocated to Austin and re-invented himself as an Artist and Chef. Now 77, Jerry is ready to downsize and share his incredible collection. Don’t let this modest South Austin duplex fool you, I have uncovered hundreds of items from the garage that have not seen the light of day since he came to Texas.
