Bidders can snag a rare Tekton air‑hose reel, a vintage record collection, and a handful of classic vinyl discs that have been stored in a climate‑controlled garage. Just two days later, Able Auctions wraps up its December 28 online sale, featuring a curated selection of mid‑century modern furniture and Danish‑style pieces that have been restored to showroom condition. The same evening, Elephant House Auctions brings a dedicated vintage arcade‑machine auction to market, showcasing roughly one hundred original cabinets, pinball units and side‑by‑side video games that date from the and.
Saturday Auction’s Monthly Live Auction concludes on December 30, offering a broad mix of vintage furniture, retro lighting fixtures and a small but noteworthy batch of ‑era kitchen appliances. Midway Auction House’s next event, scheduled for a Wednesday in 2026, highlights a treasure trove of vintage toys—from wind‑up tin robots to early plastic action figures—presented alongside a preview of newly discovered playsets.
C&T Auctioneers follows with its own Wednesday 2026 vintage‑toy sale, emphasizing rare die‑cast models and limited‑edition figurines that appeal to both nostalgic collectors and new enthusiasts. Later in the year, Bodnar’s Auction releases a 2026 catalog focused on vintage décor, arcade‑charm signage and neon‑lit advertising panels that once illuminated downtown storefronts. Each lot is photographed in high resolution, allowing remote bidders to assess condition before the live auction.
While many of these events share a common theme, a clear trend is emerging: sellers are bundling complementary vintage categories—furniture with lighting, toys with original packaging, arcade machines with period signage—to create immersive, era‑specific buying experiences. Online previews and timed viewings are becoming standard, giving collectors the chance to examine items in detail before the final bid. As the calendar moves into 2026, the momentum around vintage‑focused sales shows no sign of slowing, promising fresh opportunities for enthusiasts to acquire pieces that capture the look and feel of bygone decades.
