BUTTE - Memorabilia from Butte's historic M&M bar is being auctioned online, including the back bar and a safe that have been the bar since the early 1890s. Majority owner Dan Klemann closed the bar in September. Burns Online Auctions, a Bozeman-based company, is handling the auction, which began Monday. The Web site has pictures of the items and bidders can see them in person on March 18 at the M&M. Bidding closes on March 19. A live auction of less expensive items is slated for March 20. Also included in the auction are Stevie's shoeshine chair, the band stage, bar stools, neon and other bar signs, a cardboard Max Baucus campaign poster and an autographed poster of former University of Montana quarterback Dave Dickenson, listed as "Dickerson" on the auction site. Klemann declined to comment on his decision to put the items up for auction.
