VINELAND, N.J. — The more than 60-year collection of the late Martin “Marty” Maloy and his wife, Deborah, was the sole focus of Bertoia Auctions’ December 13 auction, which garnered over $1.6 million in sales, with only two lots of the 400 offered going unsold. The top lot was a Märklin hand-painted musical carousel, purchased by Marty from the personal shelves of Bill Bertoia. The 24½-inch-high piece featured ornate railings, decorative lamp bulbs and its original striped canopy, alongside a handful of authentic figures enjoying their ride. Landing near the high end of its $80/140,000 estimate, the carousel rode to $120,000 with premium. Additional highlights from the sale will be featured in an upcoming issue.
