LSB Auction

[ArtS]

Did anyone besides me get an LSB auction catalog? Kinda caught me by surprise. Very nice catalog and has almost 1400 lots listed. March 1&2. It is called their Premium auction and will be held 4 times a year. It may explain why there has been an apparent drop in availability of high end guns in the past few months in their biweekly auction.

Not many doubles and saw no Parkers, but there really are some very collectible guns. A lot of really old ones, many rifles and a huge number of pistols. Two that popped out at me were a Winchester 1 of 1000 and a Model 1873 with serial # 7. They have a lot of listings with estimates in the 100k to 200k range. Most guns that I am familiar with look to have reasonable estimates.

Auction is live and phone. Saw no mention of online.

This is the first I've heard of LSB doing a premier type auction. I do know that the owner of LSB moved part of the operation to Cody Wyoming. I wonder if some of these guns have any connection to the Cody museum?

Definitely something to keep an eye on!
