We are living in exceptional times, and news is changing daily or even hourly.


At the moment we are planning to hold Internet and commission only sales on 6th May and 24th June, but this will obviously depend upon Government advice in force at the time, the physical practicalities of holding a sale in these difficult times and any travel restrictions that may be put in place for our staff.


To keep in contact with us, and to check for updates on our latest position, continue to check this website, send us an email to info@loddonauctions.co.uk, or give us a call on 0118 976 1355 and listen to our latest message.


If we don't yet have your email address this would be a good time to send it in to us if you want to receive copies of our future catalogues.



March 2020 Auction


The auction room action for our March 2020 auction is now complete...


We are now collating the lots won by each of the successful bidders who weren't physically present at the auction in order to calculate postage and packing costs for each of you. As you will appreciate, this will take us a few days to complete, after which you will be sent an invoice detailing the total amount owed.


If you would like to collect your lots in person, or arrange your own courier to do this on your behalf then please contact the office by either phone or email as soon as possible.


 
 
 

The Tony Warr Collection

The Tony Warr Postcard and Ephemera Collection


We are pleased to announce that we have been commissioned to auction the Postcard and Ephemera collections of the late Tony Warr.


Tony was born in Bristol UK in 1941, in his early teens he was encouraged to start a collection of something that interested him by a neighbour who owned an Antiques Shop.
In these early years Tony took an interest in old postcards and collected many whilst visiting various towns and cities throughout the country, this developed in to his main hobby that lasted a lifetime. 
When made redundant in the early 1980's, Tony made the decision to concentrate on building and developing his collection by attending Postcard fairs etc. He had a keen interest with Raphael Tuck and their history of postcards and ephemera, and he became somewhat of an expert of their products and was credited with participating in the Tuck Database. He also produced a small catalogue of postcards with another enthusiast.

Sadly, Tony died unexpectedly in 2017, leaving his lifetime's considerable collection to be catalogued and auctioned...





We are pleased to announce that we now have copies of the

2018/19 Murray's Card Values available for sale

priced at £10 per copy, plus P&P.
