When we first walked into these three antique stores, we knew this would be a big project.

What we didn't know was just how many shelves, cabinets, back rooms, and hidden corners we'd be working through.

Today, we're excited to open bidding on the **first auction** in this Antique Store Liquidation Series.

Because one of the buildings recently sold, we shifted our focus to preparing that location while continuing to sort and catalog decades of inventory. Rather than wait until every item was ready, we decided to open bidding and let the treasure hunt begin.

We'll continue adding newly cataloged lots over the next few days, with all additions clearly identified by lot number in the catalog.

Most importantly, **every lot sells to the highest bidder with no reserves.**

This first auction is just the beginning, and we hope you'll enjoy following along as more discoveries make their way into the catalog...both for this first chapter, as well as the "rest of the story"!

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who participated in the Alfred Nelson Auction!

With 66 tractors selling—all guaranteed not to run—we knew a few of them might only need a little TLC to get back to work. But even we were surprised when one tractor was purchased and then DRIVEN 50 miles to its new home on auction day!

The enthusiasm, support, and appreciation shown for Alfred's collection made this a truly memorable auction for Barbara and the entire family. We are grateful to all the bidders, buyers, neighbors, friends, collectors and staff who helped make the event a success.

For those of you who get your purchases running, we'd love to hear from you! Better yet, send us photos or videos of your tractors, engines, or equipment back in action. We would be thrilled to share those updates with Barbara and let her see these pieces of Alfred's collection continuing their stories with new owners.

Thank you again for making the Alfred Nelson Auction such a special day!
