This auction is for a Christie’s Auction Catalogue.

It is the catalogue for the Pop, Film and Entertainment Auction held on Thursday 10 December 1998.

VERY collectable in its own right, these catalogues are used by collectors and are a fantastic reference point for rarities.

I have listed a number of lots from the auction below based on their estimated Auction value in the catalogue.  I have used £1000 as the cut off point in most cases for listing items here, but obviously the missing Lot numbers were for items of a slightly lower book value.
