auctioneer

After being stored for more than 30 years in a loft, the sleeve is going under the hammer at auctioneers, Wessex Auction Rooms, in Wiltshire.

These should have been safely in Scotland's archives, not being offloaded to the highest bidder via a bang of the auctioneer's gavel.

She said it "passed through the hands of experts, conservators, auctioneers, dealers, and collectors from London to Toronto".

Despite the auctioneer lowering the starting bid to just 50p, nobody bid and the item was unsold.

TV auctioneer Charles Hanson has been cleared of assaulting his wife and using controlling or coercive behaviour against her.
