Monday April 20th, 700
Over £1000 was raised when a cornucopia of exclusive film memorabilia went under the hammer, under the direction of two of ITV West’s most familiar faces: Peter Rowell and Bob Crampton! Before the bidding frenzy started, we were treated to a quick quiz to get the juices flowing, presented by Philip ‘On the Video Front’ Raby and Julie ‘Lovelier than Loveliness itself’ Rands, and there were prizes to make your eyes water.
Here’s some of the lovely lots that were up for grabs:
- A TERRIFIC WATERCOLOUR OF WALLACE AND GROMIT, SIGNED BY NICK PARK
- THE WIND THAT SHAKES THE BARLEY SCREENPLAY, SIGNED BY KEN LOACH
- AN AFTERNOON IN THE PROJECTION ROOM AT THE LITTLE, BEING TRAINED UP TO SHOW A FILM!
- AN EXTREMELY RARE PHOTOGRAPH OF THE CAST OF THE SMALLEST SHOW ON EARTH, SIGNED BY VIRGINIA MCKENNA AND LESLIE PHILLIPS
- BANNERS, STANDEES, OLD CINEMA SEATS, EVEN THE HANDLES FROM THE LITTLE’S FRONT DOORS!
Many thanks to Bob and Peter, Julie and Phil and all those who have donated bits and pieces to auction off.
