In a turbulent year for many auction houses, Catawiki, an international online marketplace headquartered in the Netherlands, has thrived.

On April 15, Swann Auction Galleries will host its Printed Manuscript and Americana sale, which will feature a noteworthy collection of American historical prints, as well as a variety of books and manuscripts.

On March 13, Potter & Potter Auctions will host its first rare book auction of 2021, which it has dubbed “A Sale of Literary Importance.”

Hindman Auction’s 2021 sales schedule is shaping up to generate impressive results. This comes on the heels of a banner year for the house in 2020.

Heritage Auctions will hold its first Rare Books Signature sale of 2021, June 9–10. Among a wide range of books and works on paper, one of the most significant lots to come to auction during this sale is the complete 13-volume set of the Journals of Congress, which cover proceedings from 1774 to 1788.

Since its founding in 2008, Catawiki—an international online auction platform headquartered in the Netherlands—has not only become the most-visited online marketplace in Europe for special objects selected by experts, but it has also made the auction world more accessible to sellers and collectors alike.

In 2008, when Alicia Yin Cheng stumbled across an article in the New Yorker chronicling the strange, fraught history of American elections, she had no idea that just twelve years later she would be publishing a book on the visual history of the printed ballot.

Hindman’s fall sales include a wide array of offerings.
