A one-of-a-kind private magic collection owned by a longtime Houston business owner is going up for auction. Frankel's Costume Company was a staple in downtown Houston for decades until it closed in 2017. Now the family is parting ways with more than 1,000 pieces of the magic collection that owner Lonnie held onto for years.
"There are a lot of props, a lot of big props. There's a guillotine, and there are all kinds of magician's tables, magician's boxes," said Lonnie's wife Terrie Frankel.
