A collection of four historically significant boxes, each with direct links to Sir Winston Churchill or his offices, is set to go under the hammer next week, with an estimated combined value of up to £215,000. The items will be a highlight of Christie’s Exceptional Sale: Masterworks Across Cultures.
The auction house has described the pieces as offering "a tangible link to the man and the moments that shaped him, his celebrated career and his enduring legacy". They collectively span pivotal periods of Churchill’s extensive political career, from his early days in government through both World Wars.
