Three personal firearms owned by former Philadelphia Mayor and Police Commissioner Frank Rizzo will be up for grabs at a Bucks County auction house Friday.
Bidders will get a chance at the weapons, along with Nazi war relics, at the Firearms & Militaria Auction at Stephenson's Auctioneers, located in Southampton, Pennsylvania.
Each gun comes with a letter of authenticity signed by the late two-term Philly mayor known for his tough stance on crime.
A stainless steel American Derringer firearms .38 caliber pistol is estimated to go for $300 to $500, a Sterling Arms model 300 pistol is expected to net $100 to $200, and an antique revolver -- a Baby Hammerless .22 caliber short -- is anticipated to bring in another $100 to $200.
"There is a lot of interest in them, so they may go over estimates," said Cindy Stephenson, owner of the auction house.
A Philadelphia estate passed Rizzo's guns on to Stephenson's as part of a larger collection of firearms, she said.
"He was a big Rizzo admirer," she said. Rizzo died in 1991 at the age of 70.
