Source Title Sandwich Auction House
Description

Sandwich Auction is a subsidiary of Eldred’s, offering a fun mix of online-only auctions.

Sandwich Auction was originally founded in 1974 and quickly grew into one of New England’s premium estate auction firms. Generations of buyers filled the hall for their weekly estate sales, for the entertainment value of the auction and the opportunity to fill their homes with unique treasures. After almost 50 years of business, Sandwich held its last live auction in 2020 and was acquired by Eldred’s shortly thereafter. Duncan Gray, who owned Sandwich Auction, is now a full-time member of the Eldred’s staff.

We revived Sandwich Auction in 2025 to expand our ability to provide an easy and affordable way for everyone to participate in the auction marketplace. Our regularly scheduled auctions will feature quality fine art and antiques, mostly sourced from local estates.
