Yes—Slate is my real name.

I’ve spent my life collecting and working with art, vintage posters, film and television memorabilia, music artifacts, and rare books. After nearly 20 years as an Art and Creative Director, I founded Slate of Los Angeles to offer something most auction houses don’t: genuine care.

We’re small and specialized—just three of us—which means your collection isn’t lost in the shuffle or treated like inventory. No snobbery. No liquidation mindset. Just thoughtful handling and real attention.

If you’ve been disappointed by traditional auction houses, you’re in the right place. Get in touch and see what it’s like to work with people who actually respect you and your collection.
