Earliest auctions were at the WJBC studios in the Castle Theater building in the 200 block of East Washington (photo at left, with singers from left: Jim Stahly, Arvon Jacobssen, Charlie Driver and Wayne Vawter). After the station moved to the southwest edge of Bloomington, the auction had several venues, including Miller Park Pavilion (photo at right, with Ed Lindsay emceeing), Eastland Shopping Center and Schnucks Grocery Store. The auction’s last year was 2010, at which time it was reportedly the longest running auction (64 years) of its kind. | Earliest auctions were at the WJBC studios in the Castle Theater building in the 200 block of East Washington (photo at left, with singers from left: Jim Stahly, Arvon Jacobssen, Charlie Driver and Wayne Vawter).
