The Curious Cat visited the home of a Boston Globe writer and we were amazed at the contents. It was a collector's dream house. The home was full of Disney magazines and collectibles. Comic books such as MAD and horror books were found by the hundreds. We also found a huge lot of LIFE magazines from the thirties and fourties! But the most special magazine was a single 2007 reprint of the first Playboy with Marylin Monroe on the cover. You never know what you may find in a home.

We were in Georgetown for the first time to do a vintage gentleman's farm during the hottest part of this summer. The home/barn/sheds featured artwork, oils, watercolors, acrylic, many done by the owner. The owner had been a dentist but more importantly a real renaissance man capable of doing almost anything. The home also had African sculptures, Native American pieces, Eskimo pieces and lots of vintage furnishing. It was a very hot sale (in many ways).....one we will not easily forget.
The Curious Cat visited the homesite of Elizabeth How, one of the original alleged witches in the Salem territory. In its place currently Isits a beautiful reproduction early American Colonial. The home and property is oozing in history and housed many vintage and antique books about Ipswich and surrounding community. Along with many books were many pieces of artwork including British artwork much of which could be found in the British man-cave in the basement. It was a great sale!
We traveled to Dracut, the first sale we have ever done in Dracut in 15+ years, to help liquidate a beautiful home on Arbour Drive. The style was definitely modern. Some pieces were brought in by the owner from outside the home but we were fortunate to be able to liquidate the majority of the items.
