other collectibles that almost never appear at auction. This 25 year celebration will offer eclectic groups of fine items that include antiques from the top tier of various categories. Among these groups of items are the most scarce arcade items and a very special model M coin-operated phonograph. There are over 125 collectible Lionel trains, and many have never been removed from their original boxes. A huge collection of items will be sold from a well stocked museum which closed its doors 25 years ago.
