The Brian Higgs Collection
In memory of Brian Higgs 14/11/1936 – 8/11/2015
We are sad to report the death of well-known local
collector Brian Higgs of Harwich on 8
th
November 2015.
Brian had collected militaria, guns and bayonets for over 70
years. He was a regular exhibitor at local militaria fairs and
had a wide circle of friends from far and wide. He was held
in great esteem by those who knew him, for his friendly
approach and straightforward trading. He was in every
respect a Gentleman of the old school, honest to the core,
unfailingly polite (and always willing to give a discount!).
He is already much missed by his close pals, and our
condolences go to his wife Jean, and children Mark and
Sarah.
Lockdales has been entrusted with the sale of
Brian’s collection, which has been very competitively
reserved on the instructions of the Executors. I’m sure
Brian would join me in wishing you well with your bids and
hoping you can find a bargain matching your interests.
