4400 6^TH STREET SW CEDAR RAPIDS IOWA

Maria Kalm was a well known dealer in the Maynard area for MANY years. Since she has had to move from her home Wears Auctioneering has been selected to sell the following at Public Auction. Preview times will be 1 ˝ Hours prior to the auction each day.

AUCTIONEER’S NOTE: This is a great offering of Paper Collectibles, Furniture & Antiques, It represents many items Maria bought and kept for her own personal pleasure along with many items she had for sale over the years. The fact that she has not been “active” in the business for several years makes much of this offer nearly new to the market. It better represents items typically found at auctions 20 to 30 years ago.
