Not the full set - but rare opportunity beckons to bid for 122 volumes in New Naturalist series

 


BIDDING could be lively when 122 volumes from the Collins New Naturalist series go under the hammer later this month.

Yorkshire-based auction house Tennants estimates the hammer will fall at somewhere between £300 and £500.

It is not a complete run, and there are some duplicates.

Some prospective bidders might also be put off by price-clipped jackets on at least 14, with ink ownership inscriptions or ex-libris labels in others.

However, between them, they carry a wealth of wildlife knowledge, particularly on matters ornithological.

Online bidding is now open for Lot 83 in advance of the sale which will be held at the auction rooms at Leyburn in North Yorkshire at 10.30am on November 27.
