Bonhams auction - 10th December 2014

Can’t believe 2014 is nearly over - so to confirm its immenant demise Bonhams are holding their usual December Entertainment Memorabilia sale.

The Caretakers uniform originally sold at the Bonahms auction in 1991.

The Panama hat was in a sale earlier this year, though went unsold. Its estimate then was £800 to £1,200.
