Sports Car Market Publisher Keith Martin attended the sale and said, “The Keno Brothers have shown serious intent to be players in a competitive market – with every indication that their artistic and elegant style will precede each upcoming new opportunity.”
The Keno Brothers will be the official auction house of the Elegance at Hershey, taking place June 10–12 in Hershey, PA. Watch kenobrothers.com for updates.
It could be said the Keno’s “artistic and elegant style” was predictable for the Nov. 19 NYC auction, but the reality of being in attendance presented a one-of-a-kind eye opener that was truly breathtaking. I’m glad they are serious players and even more pleased because they are truly and genuinely deserving of success in their newest venture. I look forward to Hershey in June.
Interesting that they had high a fairly high percentage of no-sales. Must be a tad disappointing to them and their consignors, especially in that the offerings were limited and carefully “curated”.
