Case Auctions of Knoxville, Tennessee has prepared a fascinating auction catalogue in conjunction with their 2025 Winter Art & Antiques Sale that occurs January 25-26. For those who have a yen to browse interesting material, expect to spend a bit of time. The range of material is broad and for paper and history collectors, these sales’ common denominators are the terms interesting, complex, and often obscure.
Here is a list of material I found appealing:
Thomas Hart Benton, lots 143-144
Audubon, lot 145
An appealing painting, lot 163
Black History, lots 171-211
A View of New York, lot 253
A Poster – The Armory Show 1913, lot 418
An Edward Curtis image, 1904. Lot 533
A book about the Cherokee Land Lottery (1838), lot 569
The sale will be held at Case’s headquarters located at 4310 Papermill Drive in Knoxville. The live auction begins Saturday, Jan. 25 at 9 am ET and Sunday, Jan. 26 at 1 pm ET; online, absentee and phone bids will also be accepted. Weekday preview appointments may be made on the company’s website through Friday, Jan. 24, when an open preview with reception is scheduled.
