Going once, going twice...

Just a reminder that Briggs auction of Houdini artifacts from the private collection of former Philadelphia 76ers president Pat Croce is TODAY at 4:00pm EST. Among the items on the block today is a large color lithograph from Houdini's full evening show (estimate: $8,000 - $10,000) and a cased collection of ancient padlocks (estimate $50,000 - $70,000).

You can see the full auction catalog online at BriggsAuction.com. Absentee and telephone bidding will be available during this auction. Live online bidding is offered through liveauctioneers.com.

Briggs has also put out a nice printed catalog (pictured) that I would highly recommend grabbing. It may be the last look at some of these rarities for some time to come.

I will post auction results as soon as I get them. Good luck to all!

Thanks to Briggs Auction for the catalog and for being a WILD ABOUT HARRY sponsor.

 UPDATE: Results here.
