Described as:

The Ray Leppan Collection: One of the largest private Anglo-Boer War collections to go under the hammer.

The Anglo-Boer War generated either directly or indirectly a vast variety of ornaments, keepsakes and commemorative pieces, and included artefacts made by Prisoners of War from Ceylon, Bermuda and St. Helena. Mr Ray Leppan, who has been a well-known and avid collector of all things Anglo-Boer War for the past 35 years, has given Old Johannesburg Warehouse Auctioneers the honour of selling his collection in its entirety.

The company is proud to be conducting this auction on behalf of Mr Leppan, as a world-class collection such as this does not come under the hammer very often. Representing both the Anglo as well as the Boer sides almost equally, this auction will offer an exciting array of memorabilia to collectors, institutions and dealers alike. With medals & medallions, documents & maps, coins, stamps & notes, Prisoner of War items, ephemera, (trench) art, weapons, silverware, jewellery and some pieces of furniture.
