Lucy Desi Museum Treasures & Collectibles Auction
Come Back for a Future Auction
In celebration of I Love Lucy Day (Oct. 15), the Lucy Desi Museum Official Shop has combed through the retail warehouse in Lucy’s hometown of Jamestown, NY. We are offering 50 treasured I Love Lucy-inspired keepsakes. Most of the items in the auction have not been in production or available in retail stores for several years.
From stylish wares to home décor, dazzling accessories, and collectible dolls, the Lucille Ball Comedy Festival Auction offers something for every Lucy fan. You can bid on items that feature the “First Couple of Comedy,” best friends Lucy and Ethel, the famous red heart logo, and much more.
All proceeds from the Treasures & Collectibles Auction support the non-profit mission of the Lucy Desi Museum in Jamestown, NY. Bidding begins at Noon ET on Monday, October 14, 2024, and ends at 5 PM ET on Thursday, October 31, 2024.
