90% of consignments find new homes at Worldwide's 12th annual Auburn Auction

Auburn, Indiana. September 5th, 2019. Worldwide Auctioneers staged its first event in its impressive new Indiana headquarters last weekend during the annual Auburn Labor Day

Weekend extravaganza, with 90% of consignments finding new homes at The Auburn Auction. The sale delivered over $5 million, with a spectacular 1948 Tucker Model 48 Sedan selling for $990,000 to benefit Mayo Clinic for cancer research.

'The owner of this extraordinary historic automobile made the decision to donate it to Mayo Clinic in honor of his late wife and it was our absolute honor to be entrusted with its sale,' said John Kruse, Principal and Auctioneer. 'We thank everyone who shared in this incredible act of philanthropy and congratulate its new owner on joining the ranks of limited and prestigious Tucker custodianship.'

A storied 1955 Quin Epperly 'Fuel Injection Special' Indianapolis 500 Streamliner brought $385,000, making this and the Tucker the highest selling cars of both The Auburn Auction and the weekend overall. The full breakdown of results from the two-day sale is available online at worldwideauctioneers.com
