I spent some of the best days of my childhood playing in his museum - a converted 3-story chicken house at Hudson's Corner, Maryland - so it's sad to see the antiques he loved and worked so hard to collect dispersed like this. Hopefully the county will use proceeds from the auction to build a new museum to house a streamlined collection of his Eastern Shore Americana.
The photos and item list should give you an idea of what's being auctioned.
And that's only a partial listing!
If you've ever had an interest in American history, culture and agriculture, you'll probably never see a collection like this under one roof again.
Thank you.

I checked out the pictures. Some neat stuff. If anyone is into brining meats there are some good sized crocks at this auction that make for excellent brining containers.
