Deadline Approaching For Art Auction Consignments



The American Saddlebred Museum is accepting consignments to be considered for inclusion in the 2013 Equine Art, Antique and Rare Book Auction.  The auction will be held on Saturday July 13th at the Museum’s Showplace for Saddlebreds in conjunction with the Lexington Jr. League Horse Show.  Deadline for submission of consignments is March 25, 2013.

The auction is open to artwork in any medium, as well as rare books, unique antiques and historic artifacts.  If you buy, sell, collect or create paintings, pastels, sculpture, charcoals, prints, carvings, etchings, antiques, rare books or historic artifacts, you’ll want to take note of this sales/marketing opportunity.  The Museum publishes a four-color catalogue for this sale.

Each year the auction attracts artwork and buyers from a wide variety of equine interests and disciplines.  In addition to Saddlebreds, coaching, Standardbred, Morgan, Draft, Hackney, Thoroughbred and hunting and jumping themes have become popular at the venue.  Other items of interest are rare books, collectibles, equine-themed painted furniture, jewelry and historic artifacts and photographs.

If you have any items you’d like to offer for sale, and need more information or would like to receive a consignment contract, conditions of sale or an auction catalogue, please contact Tolley Graves at the Museum at 859-259-2746.  The results of all past auctions can be viewed on the Museum’s website, www.asbmuseum.org.
