Burrell Smokebox Money Box
 

This isn't strictly a 'For Sale' but here it is anyway

At this years East Anglian Traction Engine Society Dinner & Dance we're holding an auction of promises and interesting items. Normally bidding is restricted to those in the room. This year however our star lot is something really quite special and so we're offering the chance for the wider steam world to place commission bids in advance of the dinner

The Star Lot is a money box in the shape of a Burrell Smokebox & Chimney. It has been produced and donated to the club by Kevin Baldwin and has taken a lot of time and effort to construct. So much time in fact, that Kev will not be making another. This is a unique opportunity to purchase a one off item

It stands 14" tall, 5 1/2" wide and 5" deep and is mounted on a Wooden Plinth. Carriage will be arranged free of charge if the winning bidder isn't in the room and cannot collect

Commission bids can be sent to me by PM on here, or via the contact details in the related article at www.eates.org. All bids must be received by 12 Noon on Saturday 24th October (this coming Saturday)

The Society would like to thank Kevin for generous donation and also James Ragsdale for donating the smokebox door ring.
