The auction that we’re alerting you to this week is a little different to the usual. It’s the sale of a load of vintage vinyl. Not the type you lay on your floor – but the type you listen to on a record player.
Justin often muses about the vinyl he’s let go – and how much he regrets doing it. This may be the opportunity for him (and for you, if you’ve done the same) to restart his collection. It’s all our era of music – and alas, many of the actual things that Justin has sold at one point or other in his life. There’s a huge range of 60s, 70s and 80s music from various genres; pop, rock, disco, punk, reggae and jazz. There’s Bowie, Hendrix, Prince, The Clash, The Smiths, Nirvana and Depeche Mode.
It’s a two-day auction – a sale of specialist vinyl and related items in 164 lots. It’s being held by Sullivans Auctions in Merthyr Tydfil, Mid Glamorgan.
- Monday 13th June 2022, from 1pm (lots 1 to 1040)
- Tuesday 14th June 2022, from 5pm (lots 1041 to 1820)

As with all auctions – but especially with this one as condition is everything with vintage vinyl records – items are ‘sold as seen’ so it’s a case of caveat emptor or ‘buyer beware’. If you are interested in any of the lots, you can contact the auctioneers for a condition report before bidding.
