Roland Auctions:

Roland Auctions NY is proud to announce The Tekserve Collection Auction to be held on Tuesday, August 23rd, commencing at 11 am EST sharp. This nearly 500 lot auction celebrates the legacy of a nationally acclaimed and unique New York City institution. After almost 30 years on West 23rd Street, Tekserve is closing its retail store.

Apple computer aficionados, technology collectors, and dedicated patrons alike will vie for some familiar (and many never before seen) items from the iconic store’s permanent collection. The catalogue (available online at www.rolandauctions.com) offers a far-reaching array of twentieth century technology and high precision equipment.

This is the last chapter for the iconic Manhattan store. I taught photography classes there and really enjoyed perusing their collection. I particularly enjoyed their collection of vintage camera equipment. There might be some cool stuff available for auction participants.
