Doctor Who “star lot” auction also features great film and comic gems

We previously reported on the upcoming Aston’s Auctioneers Film, Music and Comic Book auction on 3rd May 2018, focusing on the annotated “An Unearthly Child” script originally owned by William Hartnell, something of a “star lot”. But there are more great items on offer, too.

Here’s just a small sampling – check out the full catalogue here

Doctor Who Fury from the Deep camera script

As well as the “An Unearthly Child” script, also on offer is a full set of six original camera scripts from the missing 1968 Doctor Who story Fury From the Deep.

These were originally from the collection of the late Victor Pemberton who wrote the story and signed each of the scripts. The story starred Patrick Troughton as the Doctor, Fraser Hines as Jamie and Victoria Waterfield as Deborah Watling.
