I want to thank all consignors and bidders for making the HHA a success!
A very special thank you goes to the volunteers. This includes the dedicated Heisey enthusiasts who helped catalog in August, repacked glass for winning bidders after the HHA, and set up for and worked at the Dave Spahr Fall Select Auction. I also want to thank our Auction Firm Manager, Jennifer Miller, and all of the museum staff for their support and patience.
