Home Goods Auctions in VIRGINIA - Live and Online Sales

As the world spins ever forward, the annals of history remain etched in the relics and documents of bygone eras. The upcoming "Historical Haven: War Relics, Historical Documents, & Artifacts" auction, accessible online worldwide, is a tribute to the intrepid spirits of the past. This meticulously curated assemblage is poised to offer a rare glimpse into the valorous and the venerable, from the Civil War's frontline to the quiet thoughtfulness of history-shaping individuals. Gracing our collection is the legendary Civil War Colt Pistol, once wielded by Colonel Charles M. Bartruff, accompanied by an original assortment of his personal military documents—a testament to the military rigors of the era. Equally stirring, the American Revolutionary War Flintlock Pistol evokes the early sparks of a nation's struggle for independence, its every curve and carving a narrative of resilience. Among such formidable weaponry, the profound wisdom of Helen Keller and the patriotic vigor of Julia Ward Howe resonate through signed letters, capturing the essence of a nation's intellectual heritage. Auction-goers will also have the opportunity to acquire items of deep historical significance such as the Helen Herron Taft portrait and signature card, Jefferson's Correspondence in four treasured volumes, and an array of weapons that whisper tales of courage. From the austere beauty of an untouched Flintlock Fusil to the solemn gravity of a slave auction paper, each item has been chosen for its capacity to connect us to the past.
