For Janice, collecting Barbie dolls was not simply a hobby, but a passion.
Over the course of 25 years, she acquired an impeccably curated collection,
ranging from one of a kind dolls to platinum label creations. Modern Barbie:
Property from the Collection of Janice Pye is the reflection of a deep
dedication to developing an encyclopedic collection of Barbie dolls.
On an annual basis, Janice traveled to National Barbie Doll Collectors
and Grant-A-Wish Fund Conventions. She became a pivotal figure within
the Barbie community, often serving as table host and always as friend
and consultant to Barbie enthusiasts everywhere. Janice even traveled
internationally to acquire Barbie’s newest couture garments and to meet the
designers.
Janice spent countless hours curating and preserving her illustrious
collection. She commissioned her husband to construct an entire floor of
custom shelving in their home to provide the proper storage, maintenance
and cataloging conditions.
Janice Pye was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, sister and aunt. Modern
Barbie: Property from the Collection of Janice Pye will be sold to benefit her
grandchildren’s college fund.

BIDDING WITH LESLIE HINDMAN
AUCTIONEERS ON BIDSQUARE:
Modern Barbie: Property from the Collection
of Janice Pye, Zion, Illinois will be held as a
timed online only auction and will be hosted
on Bidsquare.com. A timed online only
auction is automated and takes place solely
online. The bidding for each lot is opened
at a predetermined amount/starting bid
set by the auctioneer, usually at a set time
and stays open over an extended period of
hours or days. During this period of open
bidding one will be able to see the current
high bid on each lot. You may place a higher
bid at a defined bidding increment you
choose.
In timed only online auctions bidders are
automatically informed by email if they
are the high bidder, or if they have been
outbid by another competing bidder. At
the end of the defined bidding period, if
the highest bid offered meets the minimum
price designated by the seller as acceptable,
the lot is sold. Bidding on all lots in a
timed online only sale begins to close at a
specified time, with lots closing at regular
intervals until the auction has ended. Some
timed auctions allow extended bidding. In
such a case, if a bid is placed on a lot within
a specified time before closing, the bidding
may automatically be extended for a set
period of time. Length of extended bidding
is set by the Auctioneer prior to the opening
of the auction.
