jor trade publications. We offer Monthly Sales showcasing the highest quality material in all aspects of collecting. We are proud to have achieved the record for the highest price ever paid for a United States Postage Stamp when we sold Scott #120b from the Newport Stamp collection for 1.2 million dollars. This series of sales brought in over 9 million dollars and achieved 5 other world record prices. We also hold records in many other areas of collecting including a $500,000 sale price for a 19th century Punch Cigar Store Figure. Our sports sales have seen their share of excitement with the sale of a Honus Wagner T-206 card SGC Graded 3 for just under $800,000 and a record price for a Babe Ruth Signed Black and White Hall of Fame card at just under $60,000. With all these record prices we still handle our $10 and up box lots gladly. We are not auction "Snobs" and do not want to "Cherry Pick" our way through your collection.

Phillips collection of Battery Operated Toys and Space Toys which grossed $500,000, The Joe Keden "Queens New York Estate" which brought in 1 million dollars plus and included an incredible selection of Antique Advertising, Folkart and Occupational Shaving Mugs.
