Gary Wales from California has a 'poster' hanging on his workshop wall for over 25 years. Only recently he decided to sell it. Toby Wilson of Bonhams & Butterfields recognized it as a very rare print done by Cyril Power (click) in 1932 of Sir Malcolm Campbell's Bluebird world land speed record car. What Gary thought was a few hundred dollar print turned out to be a world class garage find (on his own garage wall ) valued to 100.000 pounds ($165.000 ) it will be in the London print auction next April.

The last print Cyril Power was number 18 and sold for 96 thousand pounds. This one is number 7 , is signed twice, in the original frame and is very crisp(click main photo). How is that for a garage find?
