The Auction is now closed to online bidding. High Bids & Ceiling Bids placed during the online bidding period will be executed competitively during the Live Auction, which begins on June 4, 2024. Hunt Auctions will continue to accept traditional absentee bids and phone reservations until the Live Auction commences, but cannot guarantee arrangements made after the close of the online bidding period. For bidding inquiries, please contact us by phone: 610.524.0822 or email: info@huntauctions.com. Online Interactive Bidding is available the day of the auction via Invaluable.

Please note: Live Auction lots open at one increment above the second highest ceiling bid, and not at the high bid. Therefore, it is rare, but possible, during the course of incremental bidding, for a live bidder to win a lot for an amount equal to an online bidder's ceiling bid.
