Hi Gill,

 From the pictures you sent through yesterday the dated neck and body 
seem to suggest that '61 is correct. We will obviously do a bit more 
delving into the details before we list anything.

It does depend on inspection but we think we'd list it anywhere between 
£6,000-£8000. We can see that ATB in Cheltenham recently sold a mint one 
for £8500. We can also be as firm as you want on price and we're happy 
if you gave us a minimum figure you want to see out of it.

Have a think and let us know.

Kind Regards,
Harriet, Phil & Tim
