Fraise Auction & Real Estate is pleased to announce the upcoming Business Liquidation Auction of Faeth’s Cigar Store, a beloved local institution in Fort Madison, Iowa, operating continuously from the same location since 1924, spanning 3 generations. Over the years, Faeth’s has served as a local tavern, cigar/cigarette shop, and sporting goods store.

This presents a unique opportunity for local residents and collectors alike to bid on General Store fixtures & cabinets and other historical items. Visit www.fraiseauction.com for early photos and mark your calendars for the detailed catalogs available on August 23rd, featuring comprehensive descriptions and hundreds of photographs for bidding.
