Donnie understands the dynamics of a successful auction. One of the most important factors is making the auction an event, not just a sale. It's important that the crowd has fun, and Donnie's wit and fast paced auction style supplies the fun.
Donnie has his roots steeped in midwest values. Donnie's dad was working auctions before most of us were even thought about and was the original founder of Guthery Auctions. Donnie upholds the high standards set by his father at every auction that he does. As well as being from the area, he was one of the original rough riders in 1939 making movie magic, befriending such fine people as Boris Karkloff, Art Linkletter, Roy Rogers And Dale Evans. Why he even rode Tom Mix's Horse.
