«An Auctioneer's Lot» is the autobiography of Richard Harton, published in 1992 by Time Warner Books UK in hardback (272 pages, in English).
Harton recalls his life as an auctioneer and the change involved in leaving the Sussex countryside for urban London: he settles in Chelsea, meets new colleagues, expands his department and deals with an eccentric clientele. Amid anecdotes of the trade, the work blends the world of art and auctions with reflections on his own career.
This work continues the account of Harton's experiences as an auctioneer begun in «Under the Hammer», his previous work.
For readers of memoirs and enthusiasts of collecting, antiques or the art market.
