"The variety of types of antiques offered in this auction is vast,” Mr. Woody remarked. “And the quality is excellent throughout.” He added, “One of the most intriguing items is something we are calling Victorian Ladies Necessary Cases, dating to around the 1750's.

We also have over twenty miniature cameo items of the best quality.”
