FROM THE COLIN DODDS COLLECTION
In the Golly world, one person - above all others - stands out as being the leading figure in the research and cataloguing of the history and development of Robertsons and their famous mascot - Colin Dodds. Today's well informed collector owes much to his efforts with the Golly Checklist, which was started in 1991 and now in it's seventh edition. Check out the History page for a timeline of the development of the Golly Checklist. The Golly Auction team are delighted to have been chosen to auction a number of items from Colin's personal collection as he looks to downsize. From rare prototypes to common acrylics, there will be something for everyone. All such items will be clearly marked. These are the exact items which would have been carefully studied in order to build up the information in the initial Golly Checklist. A real piece of collecting history.
