Auctioneer’s Note: After decades of teaching and caring for others, Miss Margaret Miles has moved to a nursing home and is selling her antiques & collectibles. This is an exceptional auction with items that have been in the Miles family for generations. No matter what your collecting interests are, make plans to attend this sale. Lots of history here! This auction may last about 8 hours, so plan to spend the day with us! [lodging info]
