While looking for Japanese swords online, I found Freeman's auction.
Freeman's Auction of Philadelphia, etc is having a major auction
on March 16-17 of Japanese and Oriental arts. Included is a
large collection of over 100 pieces of lacquer, swords, and other
items.
http://www.freemansauction.com/
They are an international auction company; taking online bids (ending
before regular bidding); phone bids, gallery bids. This is not ebay -
read their procedures, etc on the website. I've dealt with them
before and they are first rate.
The entire auction catalog will be online approx March 5 or 6 with
photos of all items. The mail catalog will be available soon. Check them
out and register early to bid. They buy and sell internationally, with a lot
of Japanese buyers by phone.
Besides Japanese swords there are a lot of Kris and other types of
swords that may be of interest to board members.
