Antiques Roadshow UK Series 15 Episode 6 Spalding, Lincolnshire

[Music] [Applause] for this week's edition of the Antiques Roadshow we've come to Lincoln Show and in all our years on the road I don't suppose we've ever come across a more magnificent sight than this you might be forgiven for thinking but we were in the tulip fields of Holland well in the way we are except that we're in South Holland the area around Spalding in Lincolnshire where the flowers that bloom in the spring are every bit the equal of those produced in the Dutch bulb fields on the other side of the North Sea every year the Spalding flower festival culminates in a parade of vivid colour the carnival floats decorated with eight million tulip heads as they weave their way through the town bringing virtually everything else to a standstill much of the flat land that stretches from here to the wash was once below sea level but learning many lessons from the Dutch it was reclaimed from the sea leaving behind rich fertile soil Spalding is a local market town straddling the banks of one of the many rivers that drain the land it's really a classic small English country town that boasts many fine buildings and not a few magnificent trees like this fine magnolia that bursts into color in the spring sunshine we've actually set up our cameras today here in the castle Sports Complex in Spalding where they normally play basketball and badminton our experts are involved in the less energetic but certainly no less skillful pursuit as they cast their tutored eyes over the many thousands of antiques that we expect to see today enforcement this week we have David batty looking out for interesting clocks watches and scientific instruments says Simon ball and the man with the ever keen I have a fine bit of furniture John Bly but now let's join our experts with the people of Spalding we've got a cabaret service that is a service for two people or you can call them a tete-a-tete and this one is very beautifully decorated we've got the tray here in the lid with a scene a classical scene and on the back you've got the title err Bacchus and Ariadne and what else we've got we've got a coffee pot and cava two cups and saucers milk jug Carver Sucre on camera the whole lot in its original fitted case I'm sure that this is how it came it would have been made like this and sold like this these things were made in many places on the continent this quality of porcelain and it was obviously exported over here in fair numbers because we see a great deal of it over here I mean in the 19th century we're talking about the 1870s since when this was made Britain was the greatest nation on earth I mean we ruled the world if you like and many of these things came over for the great exhibitions that were held throughout the nineteenth century it's got in each case the Vienna Shield mark which people irritating they always turn up down side down and call a beehive just to annoy us and most pieces certainly all the pieces they've got a a scene on have got the title on there in German as well it is absolutely super quality that doesn't appear to be any damage on us at all is there anything the matter with it yes one of the handles and one the jokes is cracked this one that's how I was giving it I've not had anything done well I have to confess I left my glasses on the train I'm glad if I can see it but I can feel it you're absolutely right there's a crack running through there it's not actually going to make a material difference to it what we've got here is just a superb quality very decorative said that is going to make somewhere in the order of four to six thousand pounds you're disappointed no well that's wonderful news but we've reacted by a factor of ten that's always good news now the first thing to do when looking at a disc musical box and if you have the disc is to measure it because that will give you an indication of the value because on the whole the larger the disc the more valuable an instrument will be and when you think about it that makes sense because the larger the disc the more notes that can be played and the the tone and the complexity of the tunes is that much more involved so measuring it across here we have thirteen and five-eighths which is in fact a typical symphonia m-- sighs now symphonia m-- where a musical box manufacturer based in leipzig in germany and they started in business in in 1885 and I'm not surprised to see here we are there's no trade so that isn't that tell is what we have is in fact a German music box retailed by a shop in New York so sweet the other interesting thing here is that you have two combs that means that it's what's called a sublime harmony music box the combs provide a harmony when you play the disc which actually gives a much deeper and more resonant sound perhaps if you haven't had a lot of experience with music boxes you just thought oh well this sounds wonderful but the reason that it does is because of this this double cone mechanism I'm coming down and looking at the case a lovely walnut floorstanding case with this what it's a really stylized X stretcher at the bottom which is in the William and Mary Revival style which was so popular in the latter part of the the 19th century are you a collector or I'm fond of n teams yes I saw this in the sale took rather liking to it and brought it up the sale about 30 years ago the the top is actually a little fade it isn't it it was it like that when you had is that burr that that looks like burr walnut to me although I'm sure John blow would be able to confirm it now I'm sure that's bear walnuts what did you prepare to pay for something like there's just over 100 pounds which was a lot of money in those days 30 years ago was a lot of money but I still think that the price that it would fetch today in a specialized walk she which would be between three and four thousand pounds is a reasonably good return on a hundred dollars yes yeah [Music] happy Amash a it was actually introduced to English society if you like in the 18th century but became really popular during the English Victorian period it's a probably greatest period of production it's always interesting to be able to date things fairly accurately and with papier-mâché so you have several things that give us this dating one is the application of tiny slivers of mother-of-pearl which you can see here which was actually introduced by a man called George SOTA in the early 1830s he worked for a firm called Jennings and bet rich were probably the best-known makers this I would have thought is probably by them it's certainly the sufficient quality that we buy there it's a little worked a little sick the circular work table round about given that dating round about 1840 because you combine that with a sort of heavy strap work which you got around here quite formal strap / earlier than that would have been a little more folio for different freer I'm going to open it now and that is quite stunning because the condition of that is virtually as new and it gives an indication of what the rest of it would have looked that must have look like a gold and black jewels yes 1840s and still in this cup condition lovely reds and golds but quite formal in applications I say earlier would it be in sort of rather baroque or a symmetric lovely to have these nice little interior fitments and all that silk is the original in rebel if desert it's all the original silk linings here and coverings and you know lots of people say I wonder what these are well of course you can see it yeah they're being used for their original purpose which is a real cotton wheels and oh look at this is that been in there long time long time yes it has they're all there things have everything they owe charlie so tell me what is the family history with this really a family is do my husband bought it gave it through me many years ago it would be interesting to know how much he paid for it yes okay maybe gave that first pounds I think that it should be separately insured yes you haven't already done and certainly in the region of 2500 pounds it's at that time you wish you bought lots more things 4:35 yes yes I think so get how much that was 30 pounds went a long way in those days this is a dog called Bonzo now Bonzo was a great character he was the creation of an cartoonist called George study and he first appeared in 1922 and he took the world by storm remember Mickey Mouse didn't emerge until 1927 so for five years Bonzo had the world to himself and there were Bonzo films Bonzo ceramics Bonzo textiles wander with you extremely widely on all sorts of decorative purposes and rabbit izing there was a Bonzo neon light side in Piccadilly Circus in 1925 and the trivet is a very good example of Bonzo being applied to a decorative in a decorative way now this is not a particularly rare Bonzo item of course I should say there are Bonzo collectors who are fanatics about everything to do with Bonzo the trivet turns up quite often but nonetheless it's interesting to me because of the that the cartoon Association so here is one with a specific character reference why on earth did you start to collect crickets because I didn't have a lot of money and I love started to look at the design and they became miniature works of art presumably that's all quite easy to pick up they're getting rarer but if I find one I find several and then none for maybe a year but they are getting rid and what other prizes do you have to pay between three and eight pounds I paid more than that that's very good they can be the Bonzo ones might be fifteen twenty twenty-five pounds the ones with a specific purpose would obviously be more purely decorative ones would be less but I think this shows here is a collecting area where the rarest might be 5,800 pounds but you can still buy interesting things around the ten pounds if you've got the right to divide there are comparatively few artists that specialized in painting rabbits commercially this this artist who came from Colchester painted nearly nine out of ten of the pages I've seen I am we're all all rabbits this is a charming picture although it does fall down in a couple of places the ears I think have been either cleaned or rather thinly painted nonetheless young rabbits collectors of this this type of picture would would pay a fair amount of money for it have you any never ever the picture buried yourself well in its present condition bearing in mind it needs some restoration its value would be in the region I would say at auction today around twelve thirteen hundred pounds well it's not gala gal a didn't use this kind of transfer printing for the flowers they were hand-painted this is probably Masonic mosa ni si and it dates from the turn of the century but they are still very collectible slight chips on the ears I mean you know the great thing is as a pussycat and we night [ __ ] and bunnies and puppies and babies all these soppy things they're all popular that you prefer dogs right or sell a cat and a dog he's worth actually he's worth around three to five hundred pounds yes very nice pug dogs have been long been very popular dogs often seen in marvelous portraits and paintings in members they're a stock receiver if you saw them without looking here from the distance you would say gosh those are the most fabulous bison figures I've ever seen and they are a well-known model by the famous modeler who may have heard of Kandla and he originally made these mice and models in about I think it's the 1740s I can't remember exactly 1745 say and were they to be my soon and by Kanda they would be incredibly valuable like don't know exactly but I think I was it's probably in excess of 10,000 pounds so that's why I thought you strayed away that they're not that now let's if we look under there there is a mark and it's a sort of sort of Mycenae cross swords mark but it's not an invitational because they've got two lines with a little cross going through it and that is the honest mark of the Samson Factory Samson star opened his Factory in 1845 or 46 thereabouts and he set up the factory to make reproductions of well known pieces either in private collections copies otherwise reproductions pieces in private museums or in private collections or in museums so he hated a whole series of wonderful things now the danger is that say not not nowadays people know too much but certainly 15 50 years ago you what unscrupulous dealers would do they would see a mark their mark like that which they probably thought was a reproduction mark they ground it out and then seldom as bison figures of the people the correct period so it's nice to see these because they say exactly what they are no one's trying to fool anybody right and they're very very pretty tender decorative they're worth something like because they're very pretty as say a match from say 800 pounds of their we've ordered absorption about so how is it catalog as a picture Birds because it was inside we wonder whether it was Sir Peter scottson so we sent it to his agents we weren't quite sure about it either so we go to bec again after that we went to Slimbridge this is a gaudiest place I live in to his house and ladies got to open the door and let us in I mean and a bird was in me he signed the whole thing because it's a pencil because it's wrong because it's an early painting but very early yes it's not lot of people really think but I mean it's interesting Chrissy it's a bit of a local hero as well as a national yeah yes yes but before the war I think it was a wild fun yes he lived in the lighthouse in such a village which is just down the road yes yes and he lived there actually from 1933 to 1939 when he went off to war and it was here well he was a while father he was shot but but really hunters are the best conservationists and out of this group she was raised over completely he protected a bird he started purchasing figures you see apart from his father been the Arctic hero as it was his mother was a sculptress and he trained as a pinion so you trained him Munich in the Royal Academy but then his various interest took him in different directions I think actually this is his best period in a way because there is so much bigger in life now when you see the later pictures there are sort of broad landscapes it reads with little birds in here we have something that I like very much that the birds the composition of the birds goes beyond the picture so the picture doesn't end at the edge of the frame it goes beyond it it's as though you're looking at her window and suddenly these wonderful teal come flashing past is Marvel's image and vigor and color color of the landscaper it's very real it's a special picture ISM I think it's wonderful and although these latest pictures don't make as much necessary as the later ones it is still worth in the region of say three thousand pounds maybe three and a half to four what I do find fascinating is we know that this is the original coffee bag of 1823 out of the coffee pot there's actually four marked and if we can trace who the initial was and pair of crests for them that would value even more but certainly in the region six eight hundred pounds the conditions fabulous two people get there well I wouldn't have said so immediate there buster this looks terribly deco yeah yeah anyway it is if you've added that long you know it's a vaca demmick interest it's not actually I mean which is actually terrible and not discolored and so I'm afraid rather three pieces possible it is in fact I'm sure you know a world time dial we've got a conventional minute hand the dial is divided into two times 12 12 midnight which they dominium are 12 noon morning and evening and although the minute hand makes one revolution in an hour the actual hour hand which they've fitted on to England is actually don't make one revolution in 24 hours what is interesting about this problem is that it's very unusual to find that a plot by a louse maker forgive me it was not the center of clock making now although there were some excellent prop makers in the provinces but you'd more expect this to have been made in a large town or a city and the influence behind it because the date is somewhere towards the end of the 18th century but the influence behind it is obviously Cook's voyages I'm sure and he must have come back and the information circulated around of all the new places that he discovered and this clock makers made a clock showing you the times in those various parts of the world we've got botany bay we've got the New Hebrides Mount Ararat I think that's wonderful this is in the Lebanon so no suggest is shipping but I don't think it could have been when Noah start new I started from downtown yeah and what else we got Kate Providence California Queen Charlotte Islands so again Queen Charlotte was the wife of Georgian and third and islands were named after her as they were discovered but the small interesting detail is that they've moved the winding holes the movements nothing like that big in fact it's actually a conventional mover but they've geared it so that the winding holes will be at a position where the if we turn it and the hands where it's actually wide enough apart these blued steel rods showing in the different hours so you can get keying because normally the winding holes would be about there and you'll never be able to wine out so they've actually cleared it out fascinating as I said I have not seen a prop like this before is it a family piece yes it's definitely my father's I don't know whether he bought it or whether it came down to him but I think that blouse clearly puts it in this area and it's obviously been here all its life quite difficult to value I would say probably maybe 4,000 on the count of the dial really it's greatly s and H that stands for Simon and Talbot she's one of the very good German dole makers they started in the 1870s what used to be eastern Germany and they had an affiliation with supposedly we don't know but sure Seymour so Seymour in Paris was in fact Simon and Albie they made a series of both numbers obviously this is in the thousands but the earlier numbers was amalgamation with another firm called Kim and Reinhardt the two firms together made the 105 dog which animal numbers so rare only two were known in the world made an auction record which is still standing well some record of 90,000 but yours isn't going to be that's money she was registered in 1892 she's a very big doll I would say she's what 30 30 to 35 inches I think something like that these teeth are porcelain yeah she would have been painted after firing and then fired again so these eyebrows is slightly raised and the wig I'm glad in fact you haven't put on a nylon wig when you've replaced it did you just got her ears pierced as well that's right I'm surprising her before earrings on them so unfortunately she doesn't have the original dress no she doesn't but even an auction value for a large doll of this mode number 107 nine would be between eight hundred and twelve so it's quite valuable well I think how did you come by this funny purple landscape no my husband bought chicken earth option because this is what he did all the time be it my late husband he built pictures clubs or assaults and this was months some of the pictures that was I think probably Monday's collection and well I didn't know what to do with it really cuz I didn't like the frame then like it the picture put it in the car that's why it's not very good what do you repainted the frame you didn't I did that a few months but I had you doubts and I thought well I don't know I'm never gonna find a frame to fit it give it so what have you done you hung it back on the wall or put it back in the bar chair in the spare bedroom actually this time because the nails will rested on the mat and you know you knowing about it you know what it is or what watercolor paint drawing yeah when it appealed to me the detail of me I like victory deeper you see have you ever heard of an artist called Edward Lear you ever heard of a man called Edward there now when I mean limericks and children's illustration and alphabets but in fact Edward Lear was a great traveler and he did these wonderful paintings on his travels which had given us extraordinary views from his own point of view all the way through Europe and this little signature here actually says II l and it's his monogram Edward Lear and this is a watercolor I'm not entirely sure it's either somewhere like that somewhere around North Africa from Egypt or maybe Palestine or it's India I'm plumping perhaps for the Egypt Palestinian trip was which was in 1866 67 around there he went to India later in the 1870s when he was actually 60 years old but the wonderful thing about this and one other thing about you putting it in the barn is that the colors as you say are so fresh very often they're faded but here we see these wonderful purpley moves of the afterglow in the evening as you say wonderful detail I mean the nice thing is it's a genuine original object and it's got a value of course I would say somewhere in the region of four to six thousand pounds I didn't throw it out I must have been very lucky because I bought it in the car boot child about three and the chap that I bought it after told me that he got it from somebody that went copling in the wash and dragged it up with the right really so there's a good local connection yes it's logical if you think about it because there were lots of ships departing for the continent to France and Holland from around this area and it could have been something as unromantic as the bloke dropped it over side by accident it may well not have been somebody drowned with it I think things get lost but the fact that it has survived in such a relatively good state I mean obviously it's had the action of the sea and the salt on it but it is still in its entirety with the exception of a bit of the edge around there and I think still of its original length you can always tell a proper fighting saw because it will balance and come slightly up to around about the chest area of an opponent the hard things to date swords like this looking at this with its large circular pommel and short broad blade I would have said somewhere 1350 $1400 yes yeah not a particularly good quality not not a Knightly weapon it would be a common soldiers weapon but bearing in mind it in in the time when it was made metals were still relatively hard to work and anybody who had a sword covered himself fairly looking a museum would dearly like if I'm sure and generally speaking I think that it would be worth somewhere between seven hundred and fifty in about a thousand pounds because it is so around it's nice that it's got this level it's it's nice that it's survived now to our Antiques Roadshow competition and of course your chance to win a two and a half thousand pound voucher which you can then spend on antiques of your choice also this year there's an additional prize a special Antiques Roadshow enamel box first the answer to last week's question the question was in which furniture designer style was this chair made and the answer is Daniel maro so congratulations to the winner and so to this week's competition object and here it is a fine fire screen that comes from Burley and magnificent Elizabethan mansion about 18 miles from here just outside Stanford now these fire screens were used to shield people from the intense heat given off by the open fires that we used to heat those very large rooms the central panel here is finely embroidered using coloured silks against a brown background but it's the frame that we're particularly interested in this a brightly burnished trap work and the foliage is set off against a mat pounced background and this was achieved by using a metal punch directly into the wet gesso before the gold leaf was applied and it was a technique that was also used for instance on mirror frames the rest of the decoration here the low decoration in the base and the central stole up shell are absolutely typical of frames of this period and that leaves me really directly to the question at around what date was this fire screen made could it have been 1680 1720 1760 1810 or 1860 now there's no particular point in living off to work burlier for a quick look because I have to tell you that that lovely fire screen comes from part of the private collection if you'd like to take part in the competition your entry please should be in the post by next Saturday and address to Antiques Roadshow competition p.o box 161 Northampton n in 3:1 Z Z and if you'd like a copy of the rules then please enclose a stamped addressed envelope to the same address the winner by the way is the first correct entry out of the Hat the answer next week when I'll be offering you another competition object in the meantime back to our experts Wow what a wonderful object this is the ultimate environmentally friendly form of transport isn't it that's right you got here you've got all sorts of things that's interesting this is a whole group of these bikes with thee for the Dunlop team now were they they were part of the the Dunlop Racing team this this particular version palace track yes around 1896 somewhere around right because I think I'm right in saying that that these bikes are known as Pacers that's right yes and it's called the Quinn this is what I've seen two by five sleep their bike is called the Quint I've seen only one other and that was actually in the dunlop racing colors but I think Dunlop were obviously very much involved with racing because of the pneumatic tires right and they also had their own maker bike up until the late 1890s I don't one thing that interests me here because a pacer bike used for these Racing meetings track events didn't used to have a break and I see that there's a very con the fragile it benefits well it's it's gotta be unanimous for seeing it was somebody at the back everybody else road safety way if they did the brave although I must say in this part of the country a break break isn't that necessary but if you're in some hilly areas I'm sure it is that's a pair to go for my five of my calls George yes yep Robert JB's and William and William was the last surviving on call and he sold the body so about about 1970 well and how did you get it back I was very fortunate to be able to purchase it had another option in about 1980 you tracked it down yes and got it oh well that's fantastic one thing I would say about the bike is that it's of the type that could be made by the company Ariel which was a subsidiary of the Dunlop company and like many other companies like Humber and singer and Morris Ariel were motor car and motor bike manufacturers in fact Ariel was one of the very first manufacturers of motor motorcycles and in fact they're best known for that but the I suppose the joy of a bicycle like this is the fact one should say a quint cycle like this is the fact that it has survived do you know if it ever raced in anger was it ever used locally or by your uncle's as a piece of alone do some police cadets in Burleigh Park and they reach speeds about Victor 7 miles an hour that's the item a trafficker at the side yes they have as I mentioned see only one other and that was sold must be about it must have been about nineteen eighty that's when you bought this one must have been a similar time and that went for about fifteen hundred pounds how much did you pay for this well I suppose with a family connection there there's obviously a but an added value to it I don't have to tell you I didn't think you've got it for a song I think that you got it for exactly the right sort of price and today if it would obviously have a value in excess of that but not dramatically so I would have thought perhaps it might be worth perhaps three thousand thousand pounds that sort of bigger they are a wonderful pair of bases but the tops do not actually belong they can't do let's just have a look in more detail and see what we're looking at these trade tops in fact have a rather new surface to the top but I get to put that on there but underneath if they've used a good bit of 18th century timber I mean that's an 18th century tabletop which they have dished when these were put together and the interesting thing is if you look here what all this stain and dirt put on you seem to mask the addition of this block which shows now much more than when it was first done I mean 50 60 years ago when these were put together but that probably sort of blended in and this is faded and the stain hasn't there is a piece of newish mahogany which they've turned and the join is there do you see yes see the difference in quality this is mahogany this is mahogany and this is solid rosewood what you have is the most wonderful quality carving on tilted back these leaves are so sharp crisp lots of life in there and then pierced through in this typical mid 18 mid 19th century design in the French Revival taste and dating this part from 1845 1815 absolutely wonderful and of course they're a pair of poll screen bases that's from their post cream-based yes if we turn it up I can't stand that one on there if you came from out and I went scratch it and if you imagine that from there came your brass pole with a banner of needlework but then the whole thing makes sense and they're balanced and you can understand then all this decoration down here making such good sense lovely quality goodness knows how one would value them if they were still bows they would be a great deal of money greatly the money very very small very nice indeed and they make jolly good tables I mean yes not cry there as a pair of basis then they'd have to be in sort of seven or eight hundred pounds each so you'd have to to allow two thousand pounds for a pair of lovely tables made up of whole screen basis as I said Charlie not very interesting well there was a whole family of volume is there was just in Benjamin and Benjamin Lewis and I two of them work off make us to George the third and I think this is probably by Benjamin but in fact he didn't make this clock or at least he didn't make the case and the dial he had a habit of eliminate of replacing movements and if you actually go to Buckingham Palace you'll find some marvelous eighteenth-century clocks which have got movements replaced by elements and some even say that in fact he actually encouraged people by saying aye I'm afraid the movement can't be fixed we can't repair it but don't worry I'll make you a new one because obviously that was a better and more financially rewarding contract than actually repairing it now I can date this clock fortunately very precisely it's got to be Minmei between 1745 and 1749 because the mark which is almost in is to every overseen that book you'll notice that now a tiny little crowns see and the Seco fan a it's called and that was in use as a parent an excise mark for taxes levied on bronze work between those years only it's Louis fifteen it's French and it's bull work that's this this workmanship here with them by tortoiseshell inlaid with brass done rather like market rework you make a packet of the brass and the tortoiseshell and then it's very carefully fretted out and you then can lay the brass we're into the tortoiseshell and in fact in this case not only has it been inlaid but it's also engraved if you see here they've actually engraved the flowers yeah the best quality work is always engraved I don't like this mount at the bottom that's one here I think it's rather mean I think it should be something rather bigger and this could well be a 19th century replacement and also if we got to the top I'm not very fond of her she also seems rather than me if you stand back because you saw me you've got the bracket for this as well yeah that's right so if you could imagine this clock on a bracket these two pieces look a little bit fiddly and mean and they probably got they fell off and they got oh yes something similar yeah but probably bigger and slightly better quality - this doesn't really have the quality of the rest of the mounts which are very well chased he's even had the audacity to actually sign his name here on a plaque but if we turn it round you will see marvelous miracle on a turntable we turn it round in the back there we are you can see the movement that he's made beautiful movement English double fusee striking but it's a shame because it has rather knocked the stuffing out of the value anyway something associated it's rather not the stuffing on it with the bracket and even with the volume in converted movements because the bull works in good condition and because the case is rather splendid I would think probably something around about 4000 pounds it was given to us by a friend during the war okay he was a Polish soldier who used to work for the week he were family he worked for lovely yes the engravers yes and we befriended him during the war and he gave us that momentum it's always fascinating especially with 20th century decorative arts when you can make that contact with the craftsman yes and I've got a special fondness for lolly and the object that we're looking at isn't so much a plaque it's a seal let's just turn it over this is the area where you would have your initials engraved so in actual fact when you've when you've sent a Pheo letter I'd like to think that these were specially designed for letters of the heart here pure conjecture on my father he doesn't harm in this business to get a bit romantic now and then and and there there it would would work they just look the technique the thing about Malik is he made a huge variety of objects from table lamps through to car mascots and but it's often these very small little private objects which are the most endearing its first technique we made it how he gets that sense of depth because it's almost like 3-dimensional isn't it when it looked it yes is very very clever if I can turn it over but the piece is what you would say is in intaglio moulded in other words it's depressed molded into the glass and then the he's use this sort of acid etch sort of technique I mean you can almost see you know the sort of the sort of muscles in the latest torso can't you so finally now as for the signature well you could be looking on any normal but it's here and it actually says our love ink which is is good because during his lifetime he died he died in 1945 it was 1939 when they when the factory was closed and due to the war is so pre 1939 we find the initial arm it's very very important for such a small object a very keen following would be prepared to pay between three and five hundred pounds so it's a sort of price that you might say would get somebody's seal of approval well we've had a very good day here in Spalding we reckon we've seen over three thousand people and because no one ever comes to an end eats vecchio with just one carp or sorcerer that must mean that something like twenty thousand antiques have passed through the hands of our experts now after a lot of heavy persuasion we've managed to get John and Hillary and Paul on the back of the bicycle made for five the Quinn's as it's called so now if you're ready all I have to tell you is you've got a week to get to Warwickshire that's where we are at the same time next week so until then from all of us here [Music] by
