Well, if you found it in a charity shop you would pay £3.30 for it, I imagine  ;D

Interesting to see that they have so much detail for it.

It has been relisted several times, the earliest listing (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vidrio-jarron-signed-hilo-vidrio-Stripes-Blue-Baez-Doell-Brierley-Hill-Royal-firmado-/231852987073?_ul=AR&nma=true&si=Mr4K7zuOhKu%252FiV4%252Fmy9NMQmmaRE%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557) I found for it was Mar 2016 when it had a starting price of €120€ but no mention of the Museum mentioned in the later listings. 

A quick search for the museum brought several results including the Sotherby's Royal Brierley dispersal sale in 1998, which had a catalogue. Have you a copy of this Keith?

Just heard back from Sotheby's they don't have one but I've been looking in other places, would very much like a copy of that catalogue.  ;D
