Haywards collectibles auction tomorrow offers the opportunity to bid for items that range from the beautiful to the bizarre.
For furniture collectors there are fine old kauri pieces and an Oriental bi-folding screen, and for music lovers there are radios and radiograms as well as a violin.
Among the paintingsup for auction is one by Carl Feodor Goldie - impersonator of New Zealand artist Charles Frederick Goldie - whose own copies have become collectable.
The painting The Two Dames is of Dame Whina Cooper and Dame Kiri Te Kanawa in the 1980s. "I expect that to sell for between $500 to $1000," auctioneer Brian Hayward said. "His work generally sells for around that."
-Haywards will be open for viewing from 9am to 5pm today and the auction will begin at 10am tomorrow.
