THE FRANK COOKE COLLECTION AT AUCTION 9/2006

The Frank Cooke Auction of 2006 fetched over $1,700,000! A big white vinyl tent was pitched behind the Vintage Garage at its North Brookfield location attracting buyers  of Rolls Royce and Stanley Steamers from around the world. I attended the auction. It would be my last lesson from my mentor, Mr. Frank Cooke!

Cooke was truly an entrepreneur and his interests were eclectic. Rare Rolls Royce and others fetched six figures. Antiques and collectibles set records. Cooke's interests ran the gamut. The array of goodies can be found in the auction catalog. Details of the auction may be found by logging onto THE FRANK COOKE COLLECTION -Bonhams - September 2006.
