Donnelly's Auction

[mikeswrenches]

Coming up this next weekend, Friday and Saturday, September 18 & 19 is Martin Donnelly's annual Nashua, New Hampshire antique tool auction.  It will be held at the Holiday Inn, 9 Northeastern Blvd., Nashua, NH.  The link below will take you to the auction site where you can preview the various lots and get more details.

There will be 1001 lots on Friday & 780 on Saturday.

If you have never been to one of his auctions, I think you will be impressed.  They are the most organized auctions I have ever attended.

In addition, and this may be of interest to those who don't really like auctions, there are upwards of 50 vendors +/- that are set up in the parking lot.  A lot of these guys start setting up on Wednesday and stay there thru Saturday. 

It is totally free to set up, so if you live in the area this could be a good place to unload those excess tools.

NOTE:  I have no interest of any kind in his auctions, I just like to go.

Mike,

  I went to many auctions in Nashua, N.H. when it was run by Richard Crane, "your country auctioneer".

  the ones that I liked the best was the ones held at his barn in Hillsborough, N.H.  and Martin was one of
  his customers,  then Martin bought him out.

  they are both good auctioneers,  Paul Wilmott was an auctioneer with Dick Crane, now he works for Martin Donnelly.

  yes, the parking lot sellers have a lot of good items, plus they are interesting to talk too.

  the wife and I would spend the week-end at the Holiday Inn where the auctions are held, a good get-away week-end.
