Vectis Auctions

The Specialist sale held on the 3^rd of December started at the earlier time of 10am. The sale included three private owner collections; The Devonshire Collection, and The Swiss Collection featuring predominantly Dinky vehicles, including pre and post war vehicles, sets and trade packs. Lots included military, road and racing cars, emergency services, commercial vehicles, trucks and tankers, farm, buses, TV and film related and aircraft. The Norfolk Collection, featured predominantly Corgi cars, Gifts Sets, wagons, trucks and catalogues, plus there were further lots of Corgi and Dinky models.

Cornel Fleming was a man of many facets; Doctor, Husband, Father, Friend and Soldier. But throughout his life, the one constant, was that he was a collector. His love of all things Science Fiction and Military led him to build this, “The Dr Cornel Fleming Collection”. As one of the largest privately held collections of Science Fiction and Military toys, as well as Militaria and Books on the same, this collection chronicles not just his life, but the changes that occurred during it.

It was always known that when he passed, his collection would be shared with the world and the idea of this was something he always liked – that his passion, his attention to detail and the sheer size of the collection would eventually be shared with the wider collecting community. For some, items will complete their set. For others, it may be just the start of catching the auction or collecting bug.

We, the Fleming family, hope that you enjoy his collection as much and he did and bid you the best of luck.
