During the time Those Were <strong>The</strong> days! was shutting down,<br />
there were many inquiries about purchasing showcases, fixtures<br />
and bookcases. <strong>The</strong> store has just announced that, because of the<br />
demand, all remaining display fixtures and inventory along with<br />
a trove of recently uncovered antique treasures and furniture<br />
will be sold at auction.<br />
In the course of cleaning house, many long-hidden antiques<br />
were discovered. Some had been buried away for years. Now all<br />
these unseen goodies will be available at a no-reserve auction.<br />
<strong>The</strong> auction represents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity<br />
to own a piece of history from one of the Valley’s most loved<br />
antique stores. Hundreds of items will be sold with reserve—<br />
antiques big and small, odds and ends, and bits & pieces.<br />
As of this writing, the auction is scheduled for Saturday,<br />
September 6th in the store at 516 South Mill Avenue in downtown<br />
Tempe. For date confirmation and additional information, please<br />
call 480-967-4729.<br />
