STAMFORD, Conn. – November 26, 2014 – NBCSN will present a 14-hour “Mecum Marathon” on Thanksgiving Day, airing the best of this year’s Mecum Auctions from Houston, Kansas City and Monterey, and highlighted by the premiere of Mecum Dealmakers: Monterey at 9 p.m. ET on Thursday night.

Mecum Dealmakers, which dovetails off of the Mecum Auctions series on NBCSN, tells the story of President and Founder Dana Mecum and his son Frank Mecum, as the father-son tandem works together to manage the high pressure of the auction floor, where buyers and sellers hope to make the deal of a lifetime, often with hundreds of thousands of dollars on the line.

Thursday night’s premiere of Mecum Dealmakers: Monterey on NBCSN will highlight the most unique and intriguing cars and stories from this year’s Monterey auction, including: a 1972 McLaren M20 Can-Am raced by NBC Sports Group Formula One analyst David Hobbs; a 1975 Pontiac Grand Safari owned by Hollywood legend John Wayne; and a 1961 Ferrari 250 Series II Cabriolet, one of only 200 built.

Coverage begins at noon ET on Thanksgiving Day with highlights from Mecum’s 2014 Houston auction, which includes the 1964 Ford GT40 Prototype that was purchased by Utah Jazz CEO Greg Miller for more than $7 million, followed by Mecum Dealmakers: Houston at 2:30 p.m. ET. Mecum Auctions: Kansas City will air at 3:30 p.m. ET, followed by an encore of Mecum Dealmakers: Kansas City at 5:30 p.m. ET.
