Sell one like this I have a question

By repute, these Swabti figures were gifted to Stephen Reginald Topp Wicks by his grandfather who lived on St Clement’s Road, Boscombe and who also had the collecting bug. 

We have no paperwork or documentation to support this provenance. 


There are no stock numbers or labels attached to the figures. 


Please see available image of the grandfather’s former home on St Clement’s Road. 


Stephen Reginald Topp Wicks was born on 24th August 1931 and died 8th December 2017
