Good afternoon everyone, so something a bit different for us here and something to support the West Yorkshire Greetland/Stainland/West Vale communities, if we can, by reaching out to Halifax Mill Auctioneers’ social media and website followers and friends of and friends of etc, to drum up some interest for this signed Man Utd Golf Day shirt, autographed by the United legend, Denis Law.
The shirt has been donated to St Thomas’ by an ex-first division player, who is a friend of the church and Sue Thornton, who is a local patron within St Thomas’, brought it to my attention and asked if we could help. Sue had this to say about the donation:
“We have been gifted the shirt as a part of our fundraising efforts, with the main focus on raising monies to fund the repair of our West window within the church, which with the additional stone support work, is coming in at a cost of nearly six figures. Every bit of support helps from within the community and elsewhere, so hopefully the shirt will raise a good amount!”
We’re promoting the charity sale of this shirt as a silent auction of sorts, outside of our next catalogue sale on 1st December, with bids accepted from now until this coming Sunday, the 24th November.
All of the proceeds are going to St Thomas’, we’re not taking anything from it ££-wise of course, and whatever the winning bid might be, will take it home!
Although it’s a silent auction, of sorts, I can let you know that the winning bid is currently sitting at £100!
Please get in touch with us with any queries or bids, via our FB messenger page, this website, our instagram, our email address, info@halifaxmillauctioneers.com, or our works office number 01422 649669. Please share the appeal where you can online, all the best of luck to everyone and the bidding ends at 6pm on Sunday 24/11!
Our Facebook & Instagram pages feature the shirt in more depth with photos etc, thank you.
PS Don’t forget that our next auction sale, and final one of 2024, is just around the corner on Sunday 1st December, with the team still accepting goods as we speak, all the way up to Tuesday 26th November.
