Auction Details

This year will be one of the most spectacular Cabin Fever Estates Auctions we’ve had in our 40 years in business!

Geyer, was a star football player in the 1940’s with Colgate University and 3 seasons with the Chicago Bears, including their championship 1946 season. Estate items from the architecturally splendid home in Mt.
