WPF Monitor St Gallery | Dallas, Texas
2223 Monitor St. Dallas, TX 75207

This May, When Pigs Fly Estate Sales & Auctions invites you into one of the most unique, layered, and visually unforgettable signature events we have presented in many years — a remarkable gathering of three distinguished estates from Houston and East Texas, with just enough Dallas flair sprinkled throughout to keep it feeling close to home.
Inside our WPF Monitor St Gallery, guests will discover an immersive and highly curated blend of antiques, fine art, global collections, vintage design, unusual oddities, nostalgic collectibles, and sophisticated interiors spanning generations of collecting and travel.
This event moves effortlessly between refined and unexpected — from striking Mid-Century Modern furnishings and hundreds of original artworks to tribal artifacts, Asian decorative arts, studio pottery, art glass, sports memorabilia, collector cards, vintage toys, and wonderfully unusual conversation pieces throughout the gallery.
For longtime WPF shoppers, this installation represents one of the most eclectic and diverse selections we have staged in years — thoughtfully layered to feel less like a traditional estate sale and more like an evolving gallery experience filled with discovery around every corner.

Introducing: POP CULTURE CORNER
For this event, we have created an entirely new world within the gallery — Pop Culture Corner — a dedicated destination for collectors and enthusiasts featuring comics, sports cards, collector cards, vintage toys, music memorabilia, nostalgic treasures, and pop culture collectibles in an immersive and energetic environment unlike anything we have previously presented.
ALSO INTRODUCING: WPF LOUNGE
Step into WPF Lounge — a curated installation blending Mid-Century Modern design, brutalist forms, retro interiors, vintage lighting, lounge aesthetics, and modern collector culture into a sophisticated yet relaxed gallery atmosphere. Layered with sculptural furniture, conversational seating, dramatic décor, and unexpected vintage accents, WPF Lounge captures the feeling of walking into a stylish collector’s penthouse from another era.
ALSO INTRODUCING: ODDITIES ALLEY
Not for the ordinary collector.
Oddities Alley brings together the unusual, the macabre, the bizarre, and the unforgettable — a rotating corridor of curiosity filled with strange discoveries, conversation pieces, dark humor, vintage medical oddities, eccentric décor, unexpected taxidermy, unusual artifacts, and the kind of items that make guests stop mid-sentence and ask:
“What did I just see?”
Designed as an immersive experience within the gallery, Oddities Alley embraces the weird, the rare, and the wonderfully unexpected for collectors who appreciate the unconventional side of estate treasure hunting.
From serious collectors to casual treasure hunters, visitors will discover a constantly unfolding mix of nostalgia, rarity, history, humor, artistry, and surprise throughout the entire WPF gallery experience.
