Lincoln Park, NJ - February 11, 2020 - Curated Estates is proud to present the personal memorabilia of John and Elaine Steinbeck at auction on February 27, 2020

John Steinbeck is one of America's greatest storytellers. His work has garnered him The Pulitzer Prize, The National Book Award and The Nobel Prize. Elaine Steinbeck was a tour de force in John's life accompanying him around the globe on travels. Elaine was notable in her own right as one of Broadway's first female stage managers. The auction goes through John Steinbeck's life starting from his childhood through eighteen years of John and Elaine's marriage to Elaine's life after John's passing. These important objects and ephemera have been in storage for almost 20 years and are offered to the public for the first time.

Many of the photos, letters and writing presented in this auction have not been available to the public until now and will never all be presented together again. Photos of John and Elaine's world travels from Moscow to the Caribbean to South East Asian are available. Correspondence between the Steinbeck's and many notable people such as Joan Crawford, The Huston's, The Kazan's and The Kennedys are available. Childhood items from John Steinbeck include a lock of baby hair, his high school diploma, his confirmation certificate, along with photos of John Steinbeck's hometown Salinas, California. There is also furniture and decorative items from the Steinbeck's homes.

"We are excited to offer this historic collection at auction on John Steinbeck's birthday - February 27th. The lots in this sale will help Steinbeck scholars and collectors more completely understand one of the world's greatest 20th Century authors." said Jason Iorio, Co-owner and auctioneer at Curated Estates.
