Scovel was an avid fan and memorabilia collector for nearly half a century. Tracing cultural movements through public auctions seems almost counterintuitive, but through the careful curation of this sale, it became quite clear to everyone on our staff that telling the story of turbulent and transformative times and movements in American history can be possible even in an auction catalog. Im excited we are able to help share these stories with those who will participate in the auction, commented Gabe Fajuri, president of Potter & Potter Auctions.
