Antiques were accumulated over several decades from buildings, estates and auctions throughout the KC area. As items are stacked between 10’ & 12’ high, it is impossible to get a detailed listing.  As of this listing only half of the items have been moved to a 15,000 square foot building & is almost full!  Check regularly for additional info/photos!
