Considering Christmas has just passed, toys were some of the star lots of the Antique & General Sale on the 19th January. Two boxes of assorted Tri-ang “TT” gauge railway accessories including coaches, track, engines etc sold for £300, a collection of Pellum puppets (see photo below), which included Skeleton, Mr Turnip, and Clown, brought a total of £265 and an early 20th century Armand Marseille bisque head doll made £65. Other toy lots that exceeded estimate were a boxed Mamod Steam Roller, a collection of modern Corgi models and a box of vintage Dinky toys.

Looking forward to the Sporting Sale on the 2nd February, we have a good mix of hunting, shooting and fishing items plus an interesting collection of large African animal heads in our taxidermy section (see photo below). The full catalogue will be available at www.mooreallen.co.uk/cat week beginning 29th January, for further details please contact us at the saleroom on (01285) 646050.
