" A rare first edition Oor Wullie annual bought for just 20 pence has
fetched almost £1000 at auction.

The 1940 Oor Wullie annual was the first ever to be published. The
book, with the iconic image of Wullie on his bucket adorning the
cover, is one of only a handful discovered in recent years.

It turned up in a box of model trains and magazines at a garage sale
in Biggar, Lanarkshire, and sold to a collector for £960 at Bonhams
Scottish Sale of Art and Memorabilia in Edinburgh.  "

Although Nick Mason's £5,000 Ferrari, now worth about £15,000,000, was
pretty good too...
