There are COLLECTIONS WITHIN COLLECTIONS and things you haven’t seen in 30 years — plus plenty that will make you say:

“WHAT IS THAT? …I WANT IT!” 😂

There is truly A BITE FOR EVERY TASTE — antiques, vintage, furniture, sewing, fabric, stereo equipment, jewelry, collectibles, décor, fun smalls, useful things and completely unnecessary things you suddenly decide are ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY.

THIS SALE IS AMAZING — AND WE MEAN AMAZING!

We’re kicking things off with an absolute showstopper: a VERY RARE 1880s BRUNSWICK “BRILLIANT NOVELTY” BILLIARDS TABLE! This spectacular antique table is highly sought after and features stunning decorative inlay, newer slate and felt, and the kind of presence that simply commands a room. This isn’t just a pool table — it’s a piece of American history!

And the hits just keep coming…

🎶 MUSIC, MUSIC & MORE MUSIC!

A fantastic early ROCK-OLA JUKEBOX, multiple antique gramophones, early cylinder record players, LPs, cylinders and music in just about every form imaginable. If vintage sound is your thing, you’re going to have a blast digging through this collection.

And for the musicians, we have even more to offer:

🎸 A Fender bass in a hard case, made in Mexico

🎼 A beautiful 1980 Pimentel classical guitar

🎺 A great vintage/antique trombone

Whether you collect instruments, play them, or simply appreciate beautiful vintage pieces, these are definitely worth a closer look!

Then there’s THE CHAIR…

🪑 MID-CENTURY MODERN AMERICAN WALNUT CRAFT ROCKING CHAIR — SAM MALOOF STYLE!

Dare I say the craftsmanship is as good as — or maybe even better than — the original? Hey, we’re all entitled to an opinion, and I’m standing by mine! I’ve seen both up close, and this chair is EPIC. The craftsmanship, lines and walnut are absolutely beautiful. Furniture lovers, DO NOT MISS THIS ONE.

And then we head to the garage…

🔥 THE GARAGE IS LOADED!

A gorgeous Honda Side-by-Side SXS, snow blower, lawn tractor, Subaru generator, great tools and much, much more. If it has an engine, a blade, a cord, a wrench or makes life easier, there’s a pretty good chance you’ll find something here!

Inside the house, it just keeps going:

• Beautiful red cranberry glass

• Antique banks

• Wonderful antique ceramics and glass

• Antique lanterns

• Christmas décor

• Halloween décor

• Great clothing

• Pendleton pieces

• Leather jackets

• Winter coats — because, yes… WINTER IS COMING!

• Art

• Planters

• Books

• Great leather furniture

• And SO MUCH MORE!

And you absolutely cannot miss the TWO MASSIVE STONE SCULPTURES — a spectacular HOWLING COYOTE and an equally impressive BEAR! These guys are BIG, heavy and fabulous. Buyers will need to arrange their own hauling/shipping — bring your muscles, your friends, or someone who owns machinery!

This is one of those sales where you walk in looking for one thing and leave wondering how a jukebox, an antique bank, a vintage trombone and a giant stone coyote ended up in your truck.

COME ON DOWN AND TAKE A PEEK!

And when you’re finished with us, the treasure hunting DOESN’T STOP!

Visit our other Thunderbird Estate Sales sale just down the road, then swing by and say hello to our friends at ESTATE SALES BY WINGS!

THREE GREAT SALES — ALL APPROXIMATELY 10–15 MINUTES APART!

Actually… BRING THE BIG TRUCK.

We’ll see you in the East Mountains!

This house is PACKED.
ART FOR DAYS — AND WE MEAN DAYS!
Every wall is covered. No exaggeration.

Look for works by and attributed to Carl Von Hassler, R.C. Gorman, Francisco Zúñiga, Robert Daughters, Janet Lippincott, O’Leary, Craig, Ayers and many more.
Colorful. Wild. Traditional. Modern. Abstract. Southwest. Native.
There is something here to ignite just about every artistic passion.
Come to see it like a museum — leave owning a piece of history.
A MASSIVE NATIVITY COLLECTION
The Nativity collection alone is worth the trip.
You’ll find Nativity sets and figures representing many of New Mexico’s Pueblos, along with Mexican sets, Italian figures, hand-carved wooden examples, pottery Nativities and pieces from numerous cultures, traditions and makers.
It is a remarkable collection with tremendous variety.
PORCELAIN, POTTERY & CERAMICS FROM AROUND THE WORLD
The ceramics throughout this estate are stunning.
Look for Cordey, Royal Copenhagen, numerous Lladró pieces, Stangl, classic porcelain and china manufacturers, pottery, sculptural pieces, figurines, decorative ceramics and collections gathered from around the world.
And that only scratches the surface.
MASSIVE HOUSE — GREAT FURNITURE!
There is furniture everywhere, including a truly STUNNING MASSIVE CUSTOM ALL-MAPLE DINING SET — substantial, beautiful and made to make a statement.
Also look for:
Leather loveseats, wrought-iron patio furniture for days, a fabulous wrought-iron bar, an Adirondack-style lounge set ready for refinishing, and plenty more throughout this enormous home.
Then head to the garage.
There you’ll find a vintage Mid-Century Modern patio set with fantastic vintage textured/wobble-glass tables, tools, collectibles, unusual smalls and plenty more to dig through.
THE KITCHEN IS PACKED TOO!
If you cook, entertain or simply love great kitchenware, this is going to be fun.
We’ve got rare heavy solid-alloy cooking pieces, stainless steel galore, glasses and crystal for days, pottery, cups, serving pieces, fine china sets, utensils and kitchen treasures everywhere you look.
This is not one of those estate sales you walk through in 15 minutes.
Give yourself time.
Explore the house.
Take in the views.
Look at the art.
Dig through the collections.
See friends.
And enjoy the spectacle.
As another heat-blaster of a New Mexico summer finally begins to unwind, we’re getting ready for one of the best times of year — piñon fires, hot chocolate, roasting green chile and balloons filling our beautiful New Mexico skies.
It’s been a wild ride of a summer.
We might as well send it out with one MASSIVE estate sale.
COME EARLY. COME CURIOUS. COME READY TO EXPLORE THUNDER MOUNTAIN!
MASSIVE HOUSE. MASSIVE COLLECTION. AMAZING VIEWS. SPECTACULAR PROPERTY.
