To My Fellow Hobbyists, Welcome to our third auction of 2011. Prior to you receiving this catalog, we conducted a survey to get feedback on a potential new auction policy. We want to thank all of you who took the time to weigh in on this new concept. After evaluating your responses, we decided NOT to implement the new policy at this time. We were looking for a significant majority in favor of it, and you told us "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." A special thanks for this catalog goes to "Chucky Blue." With all that said, enjoy our latest catalog. Our dedicated team has once again outdone itself, assembling this fantastic array of rare, unusual, and even one-of-a-kind items. Dave Stoddard has added even more new features to keep our site simple and user friendly while incorporating new and useful ideas. James Feagin, Mark Raines, Kevin Heffner, and Ricky Huggins have carefully described all the items. Ricky has begun to fit in nicely, handling the multitude of tasks we have given him. We also need to thank Ryan Raymond (Ricky's roommate from college), who has been helping us out lately. Matt Flores and Stefan Wisinski have captured the images. Randy Curtis has done a fantastic job of working with our consignors to create some unique and interesting lots. Mark Spinrad has swept the catalog for #@%#”s, while Josh Wulkan and Stefan have given Mike and Sally Henry the “canvas and paint” they need to create another masterpiece. Kris Fraley did another amazing sending out all the lots in a safe and timely manner, while Barry Malkin's eagle eyes have once again spotted some high-grade gems!! Our constantly growing nationwide staff of consignor reps (now at 31 strong), led by the tireless Steve Dickler, have gathered together another fine assortment of “goodies.” Should you have items or an entire collection you are thinking about selling, a full list of our well-qualified and ready reps (along with their contact info) is available in this catalog. Call them. You'll be surprised how much money they can put in your pocket.
