Old hangars and even older tents provided two of the more successful categories in a recent three-day, 1600-lot sales week in South Cerney.
A book and map auction of May 16 held by Dominic Winter (20% buyer’s premium) was followed first by a motoring and cycling sale, while a third focused on aviation, military and other transport collecting fields.
The star turn of the latter sale, and indeed the auction as a whole, was an old AVRO hangar which sold at £100,000 (see antiquestradegazette.com).
