Please note: The final list will not be done until Saturday Night November 24th. Once I mark The Auction List "FINAL" - NO CHANGES WILL BE MADE. The reason is that items come in on a daily basis, a few times a day, and I will have to have time work on the description for the list. 

When changes are made to the posted list, I will put a notation near the top of the list so you will know.

The 2008 Auction List link will be posted on this page when done!


"Thank you to everyone that has contributed and purchased from the YUSA Auctions!"

Auction Purpose: "The purpose of The Yesterday USA Red, White and Blue Auction is to help guarantee that clean, wholesome, family entertainment can be heard all across America and all around the World during 2007!" The term "Red, White & Blue Auction" was first used in November of 2000.

"Since the Yesterday USA Radio Networks are supported entirely by listener contributions, we hope that folks will look upon the Auction as "An Extended Warranty Protection Plan", says Founder Bill Bragg. "Proceeds from the Auction will be used during 2007 to replace or repair the equipment that has been paid for via contributions, and if the past is any indication of the future, then we are going to need to have plenty of reserve in our bank account", says Bragg.

Again this year Yesterday USA needs your help to have a successful auction, and YUSA needs a successful auction to stay on the air! To help, you can donate items for inclusion in the auction and then bid on items that other listeners have donated when the auction rolls around on Sunday Night November 25th, 2007.

WHAT KINDS OF MERCHANDISE SHOULD I DONATE?  Almost any item (that is in good taste) is welcomed.  "Just pick out something that you might like to own yourself;  something that can easily be sent through the mail ", suggest YUSA Founder Bill Bragg.  Pre-recorded radio shows, movies, phonograph records, books, radios, small TVs, computer equipment, antiques or hand made items are always popular with most bidders.  "Many stores will often times donate items or offer you a discount; so don't be afraid to ask", reminds Bragg!  Mail order catalogs are a great source of auction merchandise; and they will even pack and drop-ship the item directly to the YUSA Studios!  They also have toll free phone numbers and they accept credit cards too.  "Don't forget our good friends at Radio Spirits; the folks who sell all the great sets of old radio shows", reminds Bill.  The toll free number for Radio Spirits is: 800/RADIO48.  Also, our friends at First Generation Radio Archives,  Audio Classics Archives,  News On DVD -  (Sounds Like Yesterday program)AVPRO have great buy's on many hard to find old time radio shows and OTR Serials too.  The AVPRO toll free number is:  888/33AVPRO and OTRCAT has radio shows to sell.  For great Jazz music and hard to find recordings contact Jazzology. Great books about the OTR stars are available at Bear Manor Media. You  may purchase Twilight Zone Radio Drama's and hard to find audio/video items from The YUSA's General Store. That way we can earn money for YUSA twice! 50% of the purchase price for most of the item(s) from the General Store goes to YUSA and then money we get for selling the item(s) in the Auction!! Make sure to have the item(s) delivered to YUSA's address.

How about buying a gift certificate or gift card at a national store and send that in to us to auction off!

WHEN AND WHERE TO SEND DONATED ITEMS:  Please send in your items as soon as possible, so that they can be inspected, announced on the air, listed below and securely re-packed for shipment to the winning bidder!  The address is: YUSA Radio, 2001 Plymouth Rock Drive, Richardson, TX. 75081-3946.  Please have your auction items arrive here by Nov. 14th for the preview on Sunday Nov. 18th or Friday, Nov. 23rd to get listed on the final auction list! We will make every effort to list items received after the final date. If they do not make it for this auction, they will be used for next years auction. If needed, please sign the signature release form for delivery in case we are not here to receive your donations.

Be sure to use Bill's excellent idea to make submitting items for the auction as easy as possible.  Just pick up one of the many catalogs that you receive in the mail and choose something you would like to have!  Make sure the item will be easy for YUSA to ship out (once it's sold), and don't forget to stay within YOUR budget.  Then call the toll free number in the catalog and use your favorite credit card, (perhaps the one that gives you free Airline Miles) to pay for the purchase!  Next, have the catalog company ship the item directly to YUSA. instead of to your personal address.  The YUSA address is:

                            Yesterday USA Radio
                            2001 Plymouth Rock Drive
                            Richardson, TX 75081-3946

That's all you have to do!  No shopping, no standing in lines and no packaging required on your part. This idea really streamlines the whole process of submitting items.

Don't have time to shop? You don't know what to get? How about a Gift Certificate to a national store? Just purchase a gift card or certificate and mail it in to us!
