FSauctions, in conjunction with Collect It! magazine, is hosting a collectibles charity auction to raise money for the New York Fallen Firefighters and Rescue Workers Fund, a fund operated by the fire-fighters themselves.
The auction will be hosted at www.fsauctions.co.uk which you can access through the thisislancashire website, from 11 October to 21 October.
On offer are over 60 donated lots, from die-cast models, Steiff teddy-bears, vases and ceramics, with no reserve price.
One of the most interesting lots has been donated by Royal Doulton. It is a limited edition 'fireman' character figure due to be released next year, but donated now in recognition of the charity.
Also on offer is a stunning vase by Okra Glass, one of only 20 in the world, a £1,400 vase from ceramics manufacturer Moorcroft and a special vase from UK designer Sally Tuffin. There are many other pieces signed specially for the auction by artists and designers.
