3/9/2009 - Bid Live on Proxibid for NASCAR Collectibles and More
 
Omaha, NE „Ÿ March 9, 2009 „Ÿ Proxibid, the world’s largest provider of live auction webcasting services, today announced that the Company will provide live online bidding for an upcoming auction of NASCAR collectibles, coins, jewelry and tools presented by A1 Auctioneers.  The live auction will take place Saturday, March 14 at 7:00 p.m. CDT, with live online bidding commencing at that time.  Auction registration and pre-bidding are already available by visiting www.proxibid.com/a1.

More than 450 lots of coins, jewelry and tools will cross the auction block during this live auction webcast.  Of particular interest are the 125 lots of 1/24 die-cast cars and other NASCAR Collectibles primarily associated with drivers who have perished in race accidents.  Many of the die-cast cars were limited production runs which were collected prior to the drivers’ deaths in race accidents and are no longer available on the regular market.  Examples include a Mike Curb/Dale Earnhardt Sr. 1980 Olds 442, a Dale Earnhardt Sr. “No Sponsor” car/bank, and a Dale Earnhardt Sr. “Crash Car.”  Bidders will also have the opportunity to bid live on a Dale Earnhardt Sr. whole racing tire, with certificate of authenticity, which came from his car during a race.

“This is a rare opportunity to add to your NASCAR collection or to invest in discontinued, limited production collectibles that do not come up for sale every day,” said Kenny Frazier of A1 Auctioneers.  “We are excited to add live online bidding to this auction, which ensures that NASCAR enthusiasts from across the globe can participate in this auction.”
