Stuff We Love: Shopping Epic Time Capsules

Mega Department-store-sized Estate Sale
By Lynda Wheatley | Sept. 25, 2021

Calling all vintage lovers: Moxie Estate Sales is about to open the grandmother of all estate sales on Old Mission Peninsula in Traverse City. A departure from typical estate sales where a moderate amount of home goods, furniture and garage items are liquidated before the home changes owners, this sale features an astounding amount of lifelong possessions — all showcased in a home Moxie has transformed into a veritable old-school department store. Think: racks upon racks of cool clothes (from baby to adult sizes), as well as toys, games, records, books, tools, sporting goods, housewares and more, spanning from the 1950s through the 1990s. Highlights include memorabilia from past Cherry Festivals, fan gear from Traverse City Central High, local scouting, and other Michigan items. Learn more at www.MoxieEstates.com and get sneak peeks on Moxie’s Instagram and Facebook pages. The sale runs 9am to 4pm Oct. 1–3 at 15517 Bluff Rd.
