Sir Gareth Edwards' Testimonial

In February this year, auction history was made as Sir Gareth Edwards' rugby jerseys came under the hammer.

''As a family we entrusted Ben to auction my Rugby Shirt Collection. His professionalism throughout was exemplary, and his sensitivity in handling what were indeed a collection of memories, was appreciated. I’m so proud the auction took place in Wales and was handled so well by a proud Welshman such as Ben, speaking to global audience''.

Sir Gareth Edwards CBE
