After growing up with my parents antique collection and attending firearms auctions with my dad I earned my BA from USM in Portland in American Studies. My parents also had a fine library of antique reference books which I studied constantly. In 1982 I began working for a major Southern Maine auction house where I was able to handle top notch antiques,firearms, paintings and decoys. By 1985 I was helping write catalogue descriptions and doing some auctioneering. In 1986 I became a licensed federal firearms dealer. After graduating from the Reppert School of auctioneering in Decateur Indiana I started Trueman Auction company in 1988. My first catalogue firearms auction was in March of 1989 and realized just over $50,000. From on site estate auctions to selling fish and shrimp at the Portland Fish exchange I have worked for many fine Maine auctioneers. In 2003 I moved to N.H. where I began working as the auctioneer and consignment coordinator for a firearms auction company. In 2004 I received my N.H. auctioneers license and was involved in the consignment of two firearms that the company sold for over $100,000.In 2005 I returned to Maine and Trueman Auction Company became LT Auctions. From catalogue auctions, benefit auctions to appraisals LT Auctions has the experience, honesty and dedication to getting sellers the very most for their antiques, firearms and estates. |
