This year will be one of the most spectacular Cabin Fever Estates Auctions we’ve had in our 40 years in business!

Illustrator art of model, Helen Mueller of Mount Claire New Jersey, including her personal collection of pictures, photographs, clothing, collections, and oriental treasures. Her husband, William H. Geyer, was a star football player in the 1940’s with Colgate University and 3 seasons with the Chicago Bears, including their championship 1946 season. Estate items from the architecturally splendid home in Mt. Claire New Jersey will also feature his personal football memorabilia, mounts from his many African safaris and big game hunts, plus decorative items from all over the world.
