           “Collectables” (Non-Philatelic Items)

      Ü     This is the first “Collectables” section under our new system. Instead of having a small
               non-philatelic section in every stamp sale, and an annual dedicated Collectables Auction,
               there will be a section like this appearing approximately quarterly. There will probably still
               be the odd lot of non-stamp items in the stamp auctions.
      Ü     Anybody not interested in the following Collectables section can safely leave the auction
               room (to look at the Buy or Bid Sale, or go upstairs to the bar). There will be a short break
               at the end of the non-philatelic lots, during which we will give warning of the resumption

               than one person. Some famous names include Armstrong, Bean, Borman, Carpenter,
               Cooper, Lovell, Glenn, Scott, Komarow, Tereschkowa, and one that is probably Gagarin.
