SIGNED COVENT GARDEN PROGRAMMES

SILENT AUCTION

 

Andrew Medlicott, a former Secretary and Chairman of the Wagner Society, has bequeathed various items to the society including copies of Wagner and Wagner News (enough to give us an almost complete run of both publications) and, amongst other items, a number of mainly 1960s signed Covent Garden Programmes.

It has been requested that these are auctioned for the benefit of the Bayreuth Bursary and therefore we are holding a silent auction during September to ensure that we achieve the very best value for these unique items.
