On Friday night, over 40 people participated in the annual auction, where 50+ lots were auctioned off. There was a delightful selection of items to bid on, including studio buttons painted by our own Jennifer Chehovich, several Riker display cases with buttons, two large boxes of miscellaneous buttons, buttons on cards, single rare buttons, buttons made into jewelry, and much more. This year, the auctioneering team was Art Baur and Dale Doty, assisted by Elaine Baur. We missed Donna Ladoux and look forward to her returning next year.
