James Bond cars feature in classic toy auction

03-Jul-2008 • Collecting

A Knutsford, England, auctioneer has announced a planned auction of toy cars including replicas of vehicles from James Bond films - reports UPI.

Marshall auctioneers representative Peter Ashburner said it took 10 trips in an estate car to move all of the toys from the home where they were kept by their previous owner, a recently deceased 70-year-old man, The Times of London reported Wednesday.

Ashburner said there were toys in every room of the house.

"He was most interested in circus toys and had model carousels and a collection of Corgi Chipperfield circus trucks and carriages," he said.

He predicted the collection will draw bids of more than $20,000 at the July 8 auction.
