    Thats great. I bought a first edition of Ian Fleming Casino Royale (the first ever James Bond book) for 10p once and sold it for £3,700. I bought a Beatles album for £2 which turned out to be a rare 1st pressing of their first album and it sold for £267. I bought a diary that someone had written in the east end of London in the war and it had all details of bombings in it for 50p and sold it for £79. That was all in the good old days of ebay. I'd be lucky to make 10p now. I don't seem to be able to find anything good.

    It's the right price but the photo in the paper shows it more like a sauce boat and brightly coloured..so either the photo in The Mail was wrong, or co incidentally two items sold for the same price.
