Freddie Mercury: A World of His Own

Monday 4th September



The single-owner collection is a fascinating thing to catalogue and value. Members were treated to a talk and tour by Sotheby’s specialist Henry House and Head of Valuations Rachel Reilly. They guided us through the galleries sharing insight into the unpredictable “Freddie Factor” that called for lateral thinking in putting the sale together.
