Just the ticket for Edmonson collection

A collection of 90 Southern Railway Edmonson platform tickets hit the jackpot with a realisation of £420 in the Paperchase quarterly two-week sale of railway and transport collectables that ended on November 1.

Close behind came a BR(E) passenger and freight train engine diagrams and trainmen’s workings booklet that went for £410. The 43-page publication covered the depots of Colwick, Cromer Beach, Melton Constable, Norwich City, Peterborough New England, South Lynn, Spalding, and Yarmouth Beach, and was dated September 1953. Prices exclude buyer’s premium of 12½%.
