I went to the Blackwood/March auction last night at Woodman’s. I am definitely not one of the big spenders, but I did get a nice sail boat etching for Mike for $15! I also picked up a persian rug and a turkish rug for the house, nothing too special, but great deals $20 and $40 respectively. Most of the items were from an estate on Annisquam, they had a lot of great paintings and etchings from Cape Ann artists that went from $100-$3,000. It’s really a great way to furnish a house for cheap, a lot of 10 antique chairs sold for $25. There really is something there for everyone’s price range. Remember to bring cash or a MA check, and you pay 15% buyers premium and sales tax.
