Hotlanta, Marilyn Monroe and Market News


We are busy as a bee here in Hotlanta!  I don’t think they like that term anymore… They are always changing what we call the city and its slogan.

We are getting ready for the largest summer auction we have ever held, and we have the best selection of things we have ever had! 

A bit of awesome auction news for you…getting ready for the market, our old friend and client, Ms. Debbie Reynolds is selling her Marilyn Monroe costume.  This is the white dress from the 1955 movie, “The Seven Year Itch” rumored to be worth over $2 million.  As most of you probably remember, Red Baron sold the famous “River of No Return” dress about 20 years ago for the fabulous sum of $15,000.  Some of you probably even remember Charlene modeling it at the auction--as well as her wearing quite well, I might add, at my birthday that party year.  That dress now has sold several times since, the last in NYC for the sum of $1 million plus the buyer’s premium.

Some other auction news… the car market both exotics and muscle cars continues to do well, collectibles it seems in every field, too, are doing well.

Please check out our web site often.  We have new items added daily!
