Chests & Cabinets Antiques Auctions in KANSAS - Live and Online Sales

This is an incredibly unique auction, and a rare opportunity to own a piece of Harper Kansas history. Rosalea's Hotel actually began as the Patterson House/Hotel back in 1883. In 1968 it was purchased by Rosalea Hostetler, who reopened it as Rosalea's Hotel. Hostetler was a self-proclaimed "hippie", who described her hotel as a "Bible Belt Oasis". Unfortunately in 2015, the hotel was torn down, with many of the contents still inside. Some of those contents that were feared lost have recently been uncovered. And we have the unique privilege of offering them for auction. Pieces such as the pharmacy cabinets from the Ballard/Bauman Drug Store in Attica, KS, old room keys from the hotel itself, artworks by Hostetler, furniture and much more! I encourage you to read and learn more about Hostetler and Rosalea's Hotel. It is truly a unique story! https://www.kake.com/to-know-harper-kansas-you-must-know-rosalea-womans-life-spent-preserving-the-prairies/article_e871764b-b493-5759-ad51-8c63b2bdf045.html https://www.cjonline.com/story/news/politics/state/2015/02/11/harper-kan-former-home-eccentric-hotel-nears-demolition/16639554007/ Auction closes Thursday, January 9th at 6pm CST Auction pickup is the following day, Friday January 10th from 11:00-5:00, at a warehouse 1.5 blocks north of the SPK Grocery on Madison St in Harper KS 67058.
