About this product

Product Information

From priceless eighteenth-century dining tables hidden away in decaying farm sheds to tattooed travellers with a penchant for Wedgewood china, professional auctioneer Philip Serrell has seen it all. In An Auctioneer s Lot he brings to life a world in which the most valuable antiques frequently turn up in the most unlikely places and accompanied by the most unlikely people. For over thirty years he has uncovered a huge range of priceless (and occasionally worthless) antiques, and he has met, done business with and befriended people from the farthest corners of English life normal, eccentric, sometimes lovable, often baffled and occasionally terrifying. Funny, startling, poignant and above all true, these stories of ordinary people with extraordinary possessions are the perfect inspiration for anyone who s ever wondered whether they might just be sitting on a fortune. What s in your attic?

  • Light hearted anecdotes

    Readable, light hearted anecdotes from a country auctioneer learning his trade. A bit too light for me and rather little in the way of insights into the antiques trade.

  • A Very Funny Book

    I read this book in a couple of sittings. It's a laugh out loud book. No, it really is! Philip has a way of writing which is easy to follow and each of the 'incidents' were truly funny. I bought two of his books at the same time, this one and 'Sold To The Man With The Tin Leg' and found they were both as good as each other.
