Press Release Body = Web Wilson's antique hardware auction No. 51 will be open for

hand picked vintage builders' hardware will be sold to the highest bidder.

This antique hardware auction will present many items from a long time collector,
who has never previously offered any of the collection for sale. There will be
selected items from several additional quality consignors. Among the auction
highlights are a pair of H&D Treasury knobs with plates, and a matching mortise lock
made entirely of brass. Also up for auction is a rare Mallory Wheeler jumbo flower
knob, a Heart knob in near mint condition, and a fine Mallory Wheeler Grape knob.
Additional important lots include double keyhole plates by Norwalk, two Mallory
Wheeler entry size hex knobs, several sets of bronze hinges, a large period brass
door knocker, and a Canadian emblematic entry knob featuring a moose, a caribou, and
a polar bear.

Of special interest will be the many lock sets that include matching knobs, plates,
mortise locks, escutcheons and even night works. There will be many lots of smaller
items such as sash locks, door bells, rosettes, and keyhole escutcheons.

WebWilson.com produced their first antique hardware auction in 1995 and from the
start they have built a reputation for quality, integrity, and record setting
prices. They sold the first "doggie" door knob for $3600 in 1996, and a few years
later, sold a rare variation of the doggie design for more than $8000. In 2005 Web
Wilson's Internet auctions set the current world record doorknob price when they
sold an MCCC Standing Elk knob for $9450.

Also in 2005, Web Wilson worked with a group of professional antiques dealers to
launch AntiquesYes.com, a vetted on line auction site with many custom features such
as anonymous bidders and an extended bidding option.

The WebWilson.com web site includes a virtual museum and library and links to many
hardware buyers and sellers. It is considered the premiere Internet destination for
all those seeking to learn about and to purchase antique builders' hardware.

The WebWilson.com 51st Antique Hardware Auction will open for bidding on Sunday,
December 3rd. Lots close at one minute intervals and there are no hidden reserves.
