James D Julia Auction Aug. 26-28

Some great victorian www.jamesdjulia.net They always have nice art as well.

The catalog is up and I recommend looking through the highlights as an appetizer.  This Belter is one example of the good stuff in this sale.

Did anyone attend this auction?  I noticed on ebay that several higher end items like the Belter table and some Meeks Stanton Hall pieces sold for $1 to a floor bidder---wondered if these pieces just did not garner a good opening bid and the house passed on them or if the information in Ebay was a little faulty today---if they passed on them, could be another sign of the times as Rare has pointed out recently in other posts...Charles ???
