January in Florida

Mecum’s Kissimmee, Florida auction sets the tone for the year. This year, it began on the 4^th and will span through January 15 with automobilia, known by Mecum as Road Art, every single day. While the Road Art is fabulous, and there is an absolute ocean of it being offered, there are over 4,000 vehicles coming available too. It’s Disneyland for car aficionados. One of my favorite pieces is Lot Z952, a 3D cylindrical Double-Sided Neon Life Savers candy sign mimicking a Life Savers roll. See it here. and check out a snippet of other very interesting Lots are listed below. Nicely too, thanks to the day and age of the Internet and telephone, bidders can logon or phone in and bid on what they want. Learn more here.
