A successful day at James and Sons

The T S Eliot signed book is officially big news – someone from a publication based in the southwest requested information today, so they have received a copy of the press release.

One of the star lots I got to image today was a Waterloo Medal, and as you will see from the media attachments it look good. The other lot that I found especially interesting was an enamelled sign, which was in splendid condition. From a purely technical standpoint the image I produced for lot 126, which was two pictures, one framed and one not, was a good bit of work.

Other than the books, which I shall be attending to on Sunday, there are now only odds and ends left to complete the imaging for this sale.

England are just starting an ODI series in the West Indies, and at the moment would appear to be going well – WI 168-5 after 42 of their 50 overs. How much of this series I will be able to catch remains to be seen, but I hope to listen to some of it live.

Here as promised are some interesting images:

Toys that have never been played with leave me ambivalent at best - it seems something of a negation of the principle of a toy.

A pity about the placement of the lot sticker, but a nice item
