This event, part of the auction house’s regular sale, will be packed with extraordinary items ranging from rare memorabilia to exquisite jewellery, all auctioned by The Travelling Auctioneers team starting at 9:30am.
Headlining the auction are several standout pieces, including a 1989 FA Cup Everton vs. Liverpool signed framed print, signed by none other than Ian Rush, and a rare collection of signed photos by Paul McCartney—a must-have for sports and music collectors alike.
