I spoke with Debbie Rowan from Mecum, she said that there are no other fees for online bidding for road art other than the normal BP and shipping. The $500 gold pass is for automobiles only.

I talked to a very nice lady from Mecum's today to find out what I had to do to bid there in person. She explained every thing to me. I am leaving in the morning. If you see a old gray haired man with a Frontier jacket on say hello. She also told me that they had over 2000 online bidders signed up. Mitch

IMO, Mecum has done a great job with their web-site.
1- Killer Setup 2- Killer photos
I was wondering if Mecum is showcasing all the memorabilia at their site? If so, what a theme using Reclaimed Wood Feature Walls. It gives great accent to signs & pumps!
Thanks,
Henrik

Thanks for the heads up, Rick! Now, wouldn't a super-collector want to buy the entire collection + the Building?
