Warwick and Warwick Die Cast, Model Soldiers and Toys Auction Report 20th May 2020
The current COVID-19 heath crisis has led many companies to change their practices to bring them into line with the current government safety guidelines. So, for the safety of our customers and our staff, our 20 May 2020 Die Cast, Model Soldiers and Toys sale was a closed-door auction, with no room bidders allowed. There was still plenty of interest in the auction however with a plethora of book bids and a great number of bidders on the telephone.

In our models section this Britains Racing Colours of Famous Owners ‘Cain Hoy Stables’ No. RC163 achieved £336.
This Britains Australian Infantry Set No. 1545 (1937 Version) sold for £276.
And this Phillip Segal Toys Goldilocks and the Three Bears which realised £312.
Moving on to the die cast section this Corgi Batmobile No. 267 achieved £336.
This Corgi Wings Flying Club Gift Set No. 2096/8401 sold for £156.
