News from mjdtools.com World Headquarters
G reetings from Avoca, New York, where we extend our best wishes for a Happy Independence Day on this 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence.

Today's Photo Montage begins with a photo of our distinctive flagpole finial and Old Glory draped below in the July heat. We just took down the 35 foot flagpole and refitted it with new rope and pulleys and a brand new 9' by 6' American flag on a freshly painted flagpole. We last upgraded the flagpole about 12 years ago. The "sapling" American Sycamore tree (Platanus occidentalis) below the flagpole had grown so much that it was necessary to remove several 6" diameter limbs in order to lower the pole.

We have the First Tuesday and First Wednesday Auctions for July fully loaded and bidding is now underway. You can view the auction and enter bids beginning now and continuing until July 14, 2026 & July 15, 2026. On the last day of the sale, two lots will close and be marked as sold each minute beginning at 7:01 P.M. on each ending day and continuing until all are sold. Bidding will be open on both auctions until bidding closes as the lots begin selling at 7:01 PM on each night of the sale. You can keep bidding until the item is marked as sold. In the event that there is an increase in the bid in the last two minutes before an items sells, it will be extended for two minutes, unless the high bid amount increases again, at which point it will extend for another two minutes.

Just Added to the Auctions
jpg_file Lot 1. A HAND CARVED AND PAINTED "ALL AMERICAN" FISH DECOY of oversize form by Robert Lindner, Clarence, New York. This whimsical folk art item which is of the form of a classic Upper Michigan fish decoy, is signed on the lead weight on the base with the initials of the artist, "RJL". It has metal fins, glass eyes and it has been hand painted with the colors of and in the manner of the American flag. We suspect that there are some, even in this 250th year of the independence of this nation, who do not hear "... the mystic chords of memory, stretching from every battlefield and patriot grave to every living heart and hearthstone all over this broad land", and who, consequently, would not feature such an item in an auction, even if such an auction were conducted in the very month that the American Nation began; but here at Martin J. Donnelly Auctions, we are proud and delighted to offer this piscatorial paean to patriotism with our only regret that we cannot provide one to each and every American. Highly Recommended. (GOOD+).(80.00 - 160.00) Length: 11 Inches.
