INVITING ENTRIES FOR SALE AT AUCTION

Halls Fine Art has an established book department headed up by Specialist Consultant Chris Moore.  We hold three specialist books and ephemera sales a year, usually as part of larger Antiques and Interiors Auctions.  We have sold all manner of books, from rare historical chronicles of 1560 to modern Harry Potter first editions along with autograph letters, signed album covers and ticket stubs.
 
We are one of the very few auction houses in the Midlands to hold regular sales of books. We have the knowledge and expertise to value and catalogue collections and libraries, and Halls marketing team can ensure maximum publicity for choice items.
