Historic Record Auction Details
The auction is conducted twice annually, once in mid-February and once in late July or early August.
If you would like to BID on an item or items in the auction.
Send a list of items you wish to bid on, including:
- the item number
- the year
- the title
- the volume number
- the album number (if one is listed)
Each item in the advertisement is coded with a letter or letters at the end of the listing. This tells us who owns the album(s), cassette(s), compact disk(s) or video cassette(s). If there are multiple letters, there are multiple copies available. Some listings have a letter followed by a number. The number indicates the owner has more than one copy of the item.
Here is a sample listing from the last auction: 136. 1971 WORLD OPEN, V3 -- Fleetwood #2291 -- Anaheim Kingsmen, Santa Clara Vanguard, Casper Troopers, DeLaSalle Oaklands (B,J/2)
This listing tells us that there are three copies available of the Fleetwood #2291 1971 World Open album, Volume 3 and the second owner ("J") has two copies.
