Holabird’s Western Americana BONANZA

Auction Details

Holabird's Western Americana Collections specializes in historical artifacts related to the expansion of the West including mining, transportation, banking, commerce, politics, ect.

HWAC is an exciting new company that we hope will bring back the fun in collecting for many Americana collectors. With many of the larger auction companies requiring minimum lot prices of $500, and in some cases $2000, a huge percentage of collectors are left out. Our company will provide all the missing ingredients in today’s collecting market- a plethora of rare and unique items generally priced under $500, specifically designed and aimed at that collector market.

We’ve teamed up with Holabird-Kagin Americana to handle all of their material that is under the current economic threshold of $500 per lot, peppered with a few extra special rarities. This means that a virtual warehouse of material will come into the marketplace slowly in auction format – a win-win for collectors everywhere.

The Holabird name in the title of the company draws its roots from Fred Holabird who will act as a company advisor and the fun spirited auctioneer we’ve come to know and love. We’re very excited to bring to light some of the best and rarest collectibles at affordable prices for collectors everywhere.
