<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Joe2007, post: 138909, member: 1262&quot;]Went to an auction today. About twenty to thirty people in attendance. Most items sold to internet bidders thru Live Auctioneers but there were some floor bidders that shelled out some serious cash. Never knew paperweights could sell that high ..... there were a dozen or so that brought $500+ each with several breaking the $1,000 threshold. Other thoughts - Old toys and dolls are dead, there were several dolls that still had the price tags from a very reputable antique shop in town that sold. $1000+ (retail prices from a few years back, shop owner passed away) dolls sold for $125. Toys, including cast iron, didn&#039;t do much better.</p><p><br /></p><p>I was interested in several cast iron banks. One particular collector in the 1st row scooped up most of them but I got the Tammany Hall bank below. Not in the greatest condition but the paint is original and nobody has tried to improve it as is common with many examples of this particular bank on the bay.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]36463[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]36464[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
