Auction Details

These items for auction on eBay consist mostly of historical swords and flags. We are only offering specific items from Session 3. Due to eBay regulations, we are unable to auction any firearms, but we invite you to visit our website, www.juliaauctions.com, for more information about the additional lots being offered in this monumental auction. Below is information regarding the entire auction.

This will probably be one of the most significant firearms auctions held in North America this year. The quality, diversity, and quantity are most impressive. Included are numerous collections such as the important old-time collection of the late Eldon Owens sold unreserved (probably one of the finest quality groupings of Winchesters sold at auction in years), the collection of the late John G. Hamilton including rare and historic Colts, the collection of the late Frank Ciak, a small sampling of goods from the late Howard Green collection, also the collection of Mr. Howard Troy including the largest offering of V. Fogerty carbines ever offered at auction (17). The sale also includes an outstanding offering of Civil War items such as spectacular carbines, rare presentation swords including numerous fine Confederate examples, probably the finest offering of high-grade shotguns we've ever had the pleasure of selling from various collections and estates. Also offered as a single lot will be the world renowned New England Arms Corp. of Kittery Point, Maine, which dealt in high grade contemporary shotguns and sporting rifles. Rare and important historical items including items from the Battle of the Little Big Horn, spectacular Smith & Wessons, rare early longarms and handguns of flint and percussion including an extraordinarily rare Revolutionary War American made flintlock rifle by Thomas Tileston. Rare Colts, handguns, longarms, rare early cannons, an important collection of rare flags, and much, much more. A tremendous offering which should appeal to all levels of collectors.
