Simon Weager is head of the books and comics department at Stroud Auctions, overseeing the cataloguing of the quarterly auctions. He is more than happy to look at individual books or whole collections and sometimes finds examples worth thousands in what could easily have been dismissed as an unassuming box of books. Recent notable sales include a private collection of English and American comics totalling over £30,000 and a copy of Martin Chuzzlewit by Charles Dickens for over £7000.
