COLUMBUS, Ohio — Spaghetti Warehouse is holding an online auction to give customers and collectors a chance to "own a piece of the history."
The auction will take place Nov. 5 through Nov. 17. Spaghetti Warehouse is known for its unusual and unique décor found throughout the establishment, so they hope these pieces will bring back some memories of its old West Broad Street location.

The auction will be held online beginning on the morning of Nov. 5. Bidding will close the evening of Nov. 17. Bidders will receive an email if they win an item. Items must be picked up Nov. 19 from noon - 4 p.m. Winners are responsible for bringing help to move heavy or large items. All items are located at a storage facility in Chillicothe.
