Upcoming Auction: Private Collection of Secretary Madeleine K. Albright, 7 May

[DJ Synikus Makisimus]

Thought you folks might enjoy seeing this just for fun if nothing else. It's not a big collection of stuff, but there are some interesting things. While some folks here might enjoy viewing/buying the jewelry and clothing items (no Hermes bags, but there is a Hermes scarf), I found the small selection of books of greatest interest - including a couple of Bill Clinton's autographed and an autographed copy of her book "Fascism: A Warning." The Royal Worcester Regency Dinner Service (lot #135) is kinda nice, and the estimate is reasonable, but I don't know where I'd put that many pieces. So if you're into such stuff, or just want to rummage through her stuff, have a look. All lots have photos. BTW, the estimates aren't eBay starting bids, but they're not outrageous.

1. Very interesting. Wonderful collection.

2. The patriotic themed pins will go thousands over

I’d love to gift my daughters and granddaughters pins from one of the greatest women diplomats of all time. I can almost afford the low bid estimate, but there’s no chance of that being the winning price. Most everything seems undervalued.
