Vintage toys and games

Coins and banknotes
-
Comics and trading cards

Fine jewellery and watches
-
Antique and collectible books
-
Decorative arts
-
Sporting and entertainment memorabilia
Proven Success: The Michael Booker Collection
A notable example of our approach was the ‘Colditz: The Michael Booker Collection’, sold on 30th October 2024. The auction featured an extraordinary archive of WWII-related memorabilia, collected over a lifetime. With standout items from Colditz Castle and Stalag Luft III including artwork, documents, and rare POW items, the collection drew global interest and had strong results throughout, demonstrating how a single collector’s passion can resonate far beyond the walls of their home.
