These are from Mr John Wagstaff's collection who was one of the team of 4 designers including Alec Issigonis who designed and built the original BMC mini in the late 1950's

I remember seeing these on ebay, I'm pretty sure the rest of them made well into the hundreds?

 

Since they're rare I suppose you could just list them on ebay with a stupid reserve and see how much they make the first time round then relist?
