Wrench Auction Coming in June
« on: April 02, 2025, 09:01:44 AM »
Just a heads up that there will be an antique wrench auction including farm collectibles in Endicott, Maine, NY at the J. Ralph Ingalls School building. The auction is being run by Dan Chopiak Gold Buckle Wrench Auctions. Auction dates are June 20 and June 21. Auctions are listed on Auction Zip but only preliminary pictures at this time. Items from 3 or 4 collections will be offered. Wrenches, cast iron seats, cast iron toolboxes, hand corn shellers and a whole lot more. Friday June 20th will be a swap meet until noon, Swap meet is for wrenches and farm collectibles only, auction starts at noon. Saturday June 21st will be an all-day auction. MVWC guys will be attending

35 Church Street
Endicott, NY 13760

Actually in the town of Maine, NY

Mark your calendars for a great auction.

Thanks for posting this Les. I don't get on here much anymore.  A couple things, I do want to limit the swap meet somewhat. I don't want table after table of woodworking tools. Those guys have tons of meets all over the country to buy and sell those things. But a few items mixed in isn't a big deal either. I just want to have this more about farm type items and wrench type items. Also, the majority of the crowd won't be coming here for woodworking, so it really wouldn't benefit a wood working tool dealer to set up. This sale will have wrenches that will sell for under a dollar, to a few in the four figure range, meaning there will be stuff here for every level of collector, not just high enders. Also, setting up in the swap meet will be free of charge. I want it to be a big swap meet event, so I don't want cost to prohibit people from setting up. Fill up your truck, van, car, trailer or whatever and get here and make some money.  I do ask that you contact me and let me know you are planning on setting up in the swap meet. I ask for a couple reasons... So I know how many tables to set up, and so that I can promote how many vendors are planning on being there when I start promoting it harder here in the next month. Even if you don't want to sell, or buy much, this will be a fun filled few days with other collectors who are planning on coming from all over the US and Canada. (If my Canadian friends aren't to pissed off at the US) Feel free to contact me. Text is best, but phone calls work, email isn't recommended because I don't check email very often. 607 237-1599. I hope people can fit this weekend in to their summer plans.

Very unlikely I'll get to attend.  Please take some pics of the swap.
You might say I have a tool collecting problem....
