Large Single Estate Auction

Auction Details

Over 350+ lots come to you from a SINGLE estate in upstate New York. The owners, who wish to remain anonymous, have been casual collectors of antiques & art for many years, and now they wish to unburden themselves of their collections. During their world-wide travels, the owners have obtained some unique & interesting items.




TW Conroy strives for full disclosure about condition of items offered in auction. We note any “issues” or problems with lots and include this within the item’s description. If no issues are mentioned, then you can rightfully assume that the item is in “very good” condition.

This live auction commences on SATURDAY, MARCH 16, 2002 at 8:00 a.m. (Pacific Time) & 11:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) and is conducted by TW Conroy, Central New York’s leading auction gallery & appraiser.



Lots in this auction can be previewed in-person on Friday, March 15, 2002 from 10 a.m. – 6:30 p.m. (Eastern Time) and 2 hours prior to the auction on Saturday. All can be previewed at the TW Conroy Auction Gallery, 36 Oswego St., Baldwinsville, NY. For additional information telephone 315-638-6434.
