The Dingman Collection Goes Up for Auction

By Shannon Mullen on Thursday, June 8, 2006.

This weekend, one of the largest private collections of antique cars and trucks, and thousands of vintage advertising signs will go up for auction in Kensington, New Hampshire.

The collection represents one of the most exciting eras in U.S. history - a time when ordinary Americans could hit the road......and travel across the country by car.

New Hampshire Public Radio Correspondent Shannon Mullen took a look at the collection while it was being set up this week, and she sent us this preview.
