Catalog cover
Dear Valued Clients,

Happy New Year and welcome to my 121st Auction, featuring over 500 lots of quality collectibles in need of new caretakers.

This issue is dedicated to the memory of Frank Kidd, who sadly passed away on December 2, 2024, just 15 days shy of his 93rd birthday. As many of you know, I have been entrusted with liquidating his remarkable lock collection, which was housed at the Kidd Museum in Portland, Oregon. Frank was a client of mine since I started Railroad Memories in 1987. He was a true gentleman, always a pleasure to deal with, and well-known in many circles—not just among railroad collectors but also for his passion for toys. He will be dearly missed.

I am excited to announce some updates to my auction system. Firstly, you can now pay for your purchases directly on my website, which means winning bidders no longer need to call me with credit card information. Additionally, I have found it necessary to discontinue my fax line, but feel free to call me with your selections; I am always happy to assist you.

As we embark on 2025, I want to express my gratitude for your continued patronage over the years. I look forward to showcasing more incredible relics in upcoming sales.

Good luck bidding

Sue
