Mervyn Mitton Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 Early in March, Bonhams - one of the top London Auctioneers will be having a sale of early coaching items. This will include uniforms, accessories such as lamps, whips, harness - and, some of the finest coaches that I have seen outside of museums. They feature most of the different types of coaches - and include a Royal Victorian Open Carriage. Look them-up on line or, send for a catalogue. This is almost sure to become a collector's item in the future. I have attempted to capture about 14 images and have kept the brief details shown by Bonhams. Bear with me if I have to split them - this is a lot of work and the MD slows me up. http://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_02_2015/post-6209-0-85883700-1423476698.jpgclick (Lot 221 Bonhams .
