Price realized: $120
Item: 222 Description: U-1540 Taylor & Tunnicliffe. Made in England, these were exported for use in the mining districts of South Africa. Perhaps as many as six dozen U-1540’s and U-1573’s total were found by collector Mike Berridge in 2015 and 2016. We have been selling the last of Mike’s stock on behalf of a collector in Canada. After this auction, there will only be one maroon top U-1540 and four orange top U-1573’s remaining. And then they’ll be gone. This maroon top U-1540 is Grade A-Minus for some minor wear on the upper wire ridge. Estimate: $150 - $200 Open: $120 Price realized: $120 |
