Here's How It Will Work

We have a total of 174 lots for our first auction. This means lots of first edition books, rare maps, Civil War memorabilia, signed documents and much, much more! These items vary greatly; some of them are framed according to our traditional archival standards, and some are unframed; giving you the opportunity to snag some great deals!

The lots are active NOW and can be viewed HERE. We are using the platform Invaluable for our auction, which is a well established auction website where you can place bids, view lots, inquire about products, etc. To view lots, simply follow the auction lots link, or search through Invaluable by typing in The Great Republic.

On auction day, tune into our auction link on Invaluable to join the live auction. Bids will commence in live time, as we will be accepting online and phone in bids.
