Starting a Collection?

We try to have something to suit everyone’s pocket in our auction each year. The unusual and expensive items tend to get all the attention but there’s nearly always something nice for people who are looking for small and affordable items to kick start their original memorabilia collections, or maybe even start a collection for their children.

Here’s a framed up, ready to display Fan Club Patch. The patch dates from the 60s and was framed up later with a letter from Christies Auction House. The letters are all numbered and there are 2500 in the edition.

The estimate for this item is £15-£20.

Another very easily displayable yet very affordable lot is this original guitar shaped brooch from Invicta Plastics which features a picture of George Harrison. Also in the same lot is a large original Beatles button badge.

This lot of two items has an estimate of £15-£20. (please note the photos aren’t to scale.)
