Not busting your chops, but its not an overly rare auction. If its close you might want to attend, you might be surprised at the prices. Itll either go cheap or sky high, audience dependent.
We have a lot of BIG collectors out here in the midwest and see similar auctions a couple times every summer. I went to a couple last summer and you never can predict them. One was all vintage hunting/fishing/shooting/gunsmithing and I bought a full truckload of mill tooling and books/magazines/catalogs for <$100. That one was well advertised but poorly run, the auctioneer set everything up OUTSIDE the day prior and it rained through the night into the next morning so many items were soaked by the time they started. Most folks arrived, looked, frowned, and left within 30 mins. The paper goods were in boxes and $11 bought half a dozen boxes full, I tossed the top few items in each that were thoroughly soaked and carefully dried the rest. All pre-1950, about half pre-WW2, and some dating back to the late 1800s (mostly) firearms but also general outdoors, tools, and hardware advertisements, catalogs, and magazines. SWMBO flipped most of it on ebay and made close to a grand before getting bored and sending the rest to our fav auctioneer for $200 more. It was unbelievable but I honestly felt terrible for the old man whose collection it was, sh!thead auctioneer shouldve been punched for what he did.
I've still got a few interesting (to me anyway), bulky, and/or lower value items, I'll post pics if I can find some or take a few when I get home.
