Note the bit in the first one about the reserve price on Scarlet's head!

Thanks for that, Doc. Its fascinating.

Part of the report said:
The majority of the drawings fetched between £700 and £4,500, but a head and shoulders model of Captain Scarlet failed to reach its reserve of £24,000.

I can't say I'm surprised - it s not a very attractive model - doesn't do him justice at all.... :wink:

Well, it was an early concept model, not used in the series. Still, it's not half as nice as my Pewter Paul.

Original items from the Anderson shows are being auctioned on ebay at the moment. All items from my collection to help fund desperate repairs to my flat!

What I wouldn't do to buy some of the actual set.
