Along with running the night's auction, Marty Cobb of Audubon Auctions (above, left) also doubled as an appraiser. Here, he discusses a violin he identified as an antique dating to 1716. One of the night's most unique finds was a very rare Philadelphia Beer tray from the early 19th century featuring a highly-detailed illustration of an electrically-powered beer truck with wooden axels and hard wheels.
