Autumn 2026 list
A working list, not a dump of every box in the archive. Lots are reserved when a viewing is booked. Prices are in pounds sterling, inclusive of UK VAT where it applies. Condition is given as a grade and as a sentence, because a grade without a sentence is an argument waiting to happen.
How to buy
Name the lot. We hold it for 48 hours, photograph any page you ask for, and either pack it or set it out in the viewing room.
Grading
We use the familiar 10-point scale, then describe colour breaks, spine ticks, tape, and any restoration. Encapsulated copies keep their label grade.
Want lists
If a run is not on this page, it may still be in the racks, or we may know the collector who has it. Email the title and the grade you will live with.
British weekly · 1974
Complete first year, mixed grade Very Fine to Near Mint, two issues with a discreet name in biro on the cover. Cream to off-white pages. A northern science-fiction weekly that never quite made the London news-stands.
£1,850 · reserved on request
American pamphlet · 1968
Third-party encapsulated copy of the first issue. Tight spine, strong wraparound colour, a single colour-breaking tick at the lower right. Photographed on all six sides.
£2,400
Bound volume · 1961
Twelve issues bound in red buckram for the editorial office, with the original covers retained. Light handling to the cloth, contents unread-looking. A working copy, not a dressing copy.
£640
Resin · edition of 75
Studio-cast figure, 1:6, numbered 18/75, with the original certificate and a letter from the sculptor. No recast market on this piece; we bought it from the first owner in Leeds.
£920
Screen-used adjacent · 1984
Painted stunt helmet from a British independent road picture, with call-sheet photocopy and a letter of provenance from the unit publicist. Display wear to the visor mounts, structure sound.
£1,150
Mixed lot · 1970s–90s
Die-cast ship, chrome robot, enamel pin tray, and a short run of related pamphlets from a Darlington collection formed in the 1990s. Sold as a group so the desk stays a desk.
£380
The books and objects we list under house titles are original works and independent publications. Where we hold a licensed pamphlet it is described by publisher, issue, and date on the invoice, and only when we have a legitimate copy to sell. We do not sell recasts, bootlegs, or scans bound as books.
Postage is calculated at the time of sale. UK mainland tracked post is included on lots under £250. Higher-value lots travel by specialist courier. Export is possible; duties and destination restrictions are the buyer’s.
The public catalogue is a sample. Collectors on the register receive the full PDF on the first Monday of each month.
