For sale by the same seller as the arms of Hubert English Harrison Curling of Hitchen Hertfordshire (sold on 8th November 2007 for £301.000) are the Letters Patent for the Grant of Armorial bearings to David Barty King dated 1923.
At the time of writing the bidding is at £75.00 with three bidders.
I've probably said this before but it always seems sad to me that such a document, which clearly meant a lot to the original grantee, should part company with the family so soon. I'll keep an eye on the final hammer price and report back.
