Space collection put up for sale

[Abarbarian]

"The UK's largest private collection of space artefacts, which includes meteorites and rocks from the Moon and Mars, is being put up for auction."

"The Lyon and Turnbull auction will take place in Edinburgh on 18 August. "

"Mr Elliott found the 5.8kg remnant of the Hambleton meteorite beside a forest track in North Yorkshire. It is expected to fetch between £60,000 and £90,000."

A chance to own your own piece of moon dust and a visit to Edinburgh, looks well worth a trip.

Me dad used to tell me that money don't just fall out of the sky, well he was wrong.

I have a petrified bean from Venus here which I'm offering up for £30K.

Some people remark that it looks very similar to a pebble as found on the beach at Lulworth Cove but do not heed them, this is the genuine article.

Straight up Guv and I will even supply a certifcate of authentification tailored to your choice

I do actually have Marc Bolan's guitar lead that he recorded 'Get It On' with but I will never be able to prove it's that lead in a thousand years will I?

Such is life
