Holabird Western Americana Collections

Holabird's Western Americana Collections is an exciting new company that we hope will bring back the fun in collecting for many Americana collectors. With many of the larger auction companies requiring minimum lot prices of $500, and in some cases $2000, a huge percentage of collectors are left out. Our company will provide all the missing ingredients in today's collecting market - a plethora of rare and unique items generally priced under $500, specifically designed and aimed at that collector market.
The Holabird name in the title of the company draws its roots from Fred Holabird, who will act as a company adviser and the fun spirited auctioneer we've come to know and love. We're very excited to bring to light some of the best and rarest collectibles at affordable prices for collectors everywhere.
Holabird's Western Americana specializes in historical artifacts related to the expansion of the West including mining, transportation, banking, commerce, politics, etc.

Best of the Best
These folks are great! We needed our item quickly to take to a show, and they got it to us in time. Packing was outstanding, and shipping price was reasonable. Item was as described and better in person than in the photos. The Holabird staff is kind and professional. A + rating!

1881 Gen. Crook letter returns to where it was written!
We appreciate the opportunity to have a personal letter from Gen. George Crook about an invitation to go fishing. It will be displayed in the house where he lived at Fort Omaha. We strive to honor his memory. Come visit the house!
