DSC01801 BCD Nov19 Auction Lot17 Chariot Race adj
Lot 17 – Holtzapffel, Chariot Race (distant view) 600pc, complete 11repl, 28x14in, no box, est £120 – MADE £60
This medium-large Holtzapffel proved to be the least popular - perhaps because some of the paper seems to be lifting from the wood in the photo.
Dave Cooper, cutter, enthusiast and former owner of the British Jigsaw Library, passed away this summer and his most prestigious jigsaws were auctioned at the November 2019 BCD Meeting. 31 puzzles formed 28 lots - all of which were sold. Tom Tyler was the auctioneer and overseas and absent members were able to make postal or 'book' bids. Most of the lots were sold to UK members, but some will be leaving Britain. A high proportion of the lots were vintage Holtzapffel jigsaws - guaranteeing a high turnout for the meeting.
