The 2022 auction at Copake will be one of the great opportunities to acquire vast amounts of bicycle and automobile memorabilia. Hundreds of photographs, catalogs, trade cards, as well as parts and whole bikes. You would have to go to hundreds of flea markets and auctions to just see this outpouring of bicycle history.
The catalog is very useful in looking at the offerings online and the bidding will be live this year in Copake.
The full catalog is online as of today (perhaps this past weekend?). There look to be some nice, antique type shaft drive bikes and pre-1933 bikes. It's a bit thin on utility and three speed bike content (I guess they just don't bring the money usually). Lot 18- Sunbeam bike - looks pretty nice though, and Lot 30 - Humber Sports - is a tastefully done drop bar variation. My take on it is here: https://bikeshedva.blogspot.com/2022/09/copake-bicycle-and-transportation.html if anyone is interested in three speed subjects.
For road bike people, Lot 29 - Rene Herse should be interesting. But that is bigger money and you really have to dig into the details with those. Some of those high-end road bike collectors have a lot of money to throw at this stuff.
Two weeks from tonight I am guessing there will be some happy people (what they sold and/or what they bought), some sad people (what they sold and/or didn't buy) and some broke people (cause they got a little auction "fever" and/or forgot about the buyers premium and tax). The Copake auction will be over. Just having a little fun. Looking forward to it!!!
