Kovels on Antiques & Collectibles September 2017 Newsletter Available
Cleveland, Ohio (PRWEB) August 30, 2017 -- Advertising signs sold well to collectors at two New York auctions and are featured in a sale report in Kovels on Antiques & Collectibles September 2017 newsletter. Food product advertisers have long looked for the best way to their customers’ hearts—and their wallets. Kovels’ sale report has pictures and prices of 1920s and ’30s store display signs with colorful graphics plugging everything from meat to medicine that auctioned from $100 to over $4,000. Antique and vintage jewelry by the George Jensen company sold at auction in New Jersey and it keeps going up in price. Jensen jewelry has been worn by royalty and celebrities since the early 1900s. Kovels’ September newsletter pictures silver necklaces and earrings, as well as a gold pin and the top lot gold bracelet that brought $5,000. And another New Jersey auction offered more than 500 lots of vintage Heisey glassware. Find colorful Heisey examples along with their prices in Kovels’ latest issue.
Two auction houses in New Orleans recently held estate sales that included furniture with marquetry decoration. September’s newsletter pictures an assortment of pieces with simple to intricate marquetry design with prices that reached $3,750.
