Maine Antique Digest, December 2016 25-CS
We are excited to continue our collaboration with Crissy Galleries of
Sarasota, FL, in an effort to facilitate the auction sale of art and antiques
from Florida estates. Crissy Galleries, one of Florida’s most respected estate
liquidators, has once again called on our services to conduct this unreserved
public auction of estate material from sunny Florida, the items being sold
mostly derived from local Sarasota families and estates. Many of them are
their first time to be offered for sale, a great collection sold unreserved.
