Sorry Pete - not mastered the art of putting images on this site (yet) .... but if you visit the BBR site: onlinebbr.com you can view some piccies of much of the stuff coming in - daily ('ish) updates. Today we have dropped on some of the medical packets complete with the stamp duty labels affixed.
If you want anything image wise specifically - just email my desktop: sales@onlinebbr.com
STOP PRESS: a large advertising collection is being shipped "back home" to BBR. Not gonna give any clues as to where from - but it is a loooooooooooooooooooooong way away. Going to take some time but consists of English material - enamel signs, cabinets etc - watch this space!!!! |

Alan its so easy when you know. If you give me a ring on 07971 933 267 I will talk it through with you whilst uploading an image, so we can go through it step by step. It will take a 3 minute call thats all, I'm on a mac too so it will be an identical process. When you've done it once, you'll be away |

This week Clare & I have concentrated on lotting up the Saturday Unreserved. Best ever offering here - material that would often make the Sunday sale - Enamels Packaging & general Advertising, Pharmacy, Guinntiques, Kitchenalia (great bits in there - pottery to treen & large 'gadgets' like knife sharpeners etc), a huge collection of Doulton & Beswick animals (highest value I have yet spotted is £1,000 book price - all here with NO RESERVE), & several other 'strong' categories.
We are considering starting at 12 noon rather than 1 - so keep yer eyes peeled on the forums, BBR website, or BBR mag prior to the Autumn Extravaganza week-end ..... thinking of making it a tyruly BIG offering - 400 lots, & some of those have true quality in there ..... we are even putting things to one side for January already!!!! |
