Forthcoming Sportingold Auction. The Big C lots.

[Auchinleckian]

Sportingold's next auction catalogue, for December 15th, is now out on line, and the 16 lots that Forum members on here donated are listed on it. They are lots 1046 to 1061. There's no mention of them being for sale for Cancer Research (they may be so in the hard copy of the catalogue?) If not, I'll drop Chris a wee email asking if they can be highlighted as being charity lots on the day of the sale.
If the lots are not fully described in the hard copy catalogue, then Forum readers have an advantage over other bidders with lots 11 and 14.
PLEASE SUPPORT, and make this a really worthwhile effort for all concerned.

Nothing mentioned in the catalogue at all

Our lots are on page 30 of the catalogue, starting at lot no. 1046.

At the outset of this exercise I advised that it would be great to raise £400 for Cancer Research. If these programmes sell at their minimum price guide then £570 will have been raised, but I'm hoping for more.
Anybody going to be bidding on any of the lots?

Have contacted Chris today re making people aware on Thursday re the Big C lots. He must have had something in mind as he's informed me of the following

Hi John,

Thanks for your note, Lots 1062-1066 are also for Cancer Research donated by Ipswich follower James Holland who has requested that we add the amount raised to the cheque that we send to you.

Best regards,

Chris
