Welcome to the 2017 WICA National Convention Auction. With 87 lots, the variety and quality promise something for every auction attendee.

Consignment/Donation Condition. Condition of each lot to be sold (the description in this catalog) was provided by the consignors. WICA, Inc., and its auctioneers assume no responsibility for accuracy; however, the information should be a useful guide for bidding. Condition focuses on non-manufacturing related flaws such as chips, cracks, flakes, hairlines, discoloration, and restoration. In many cases manufacturing-related flaws have been identified. Auction Check-In will begin at 7:00 a.m. in the Ballroom ONON 3. Consignors are to come to the auction check-in at their pre-assigned time and should have the labels affixed to the items. During check-in any damage not noted in the auction catalog will be marked with a blue dot. Auction Preview will begin at 3:30 p.m. in the Ballroom ONON 3.

A sold item bearing damage which was not described in the catalog or which was not marked at check-in with a blue dot may be returned if not more than three additional lots have crossed the auction block.
