Des O’Sullivan anticipates keen interest in a sale at Cork Auction Rooms.

THE June bank holiday Sunday auction at Cork Auction Rooms will feature the military archives of the Hadden family. Originally from England, the family settled in Ireland after the Second World War.

The archive includes military medals, war diaries, scrap books relating to the First and Second World Wars and military paperwork. The antique and collectors auction, which gets underway at noon, features more than 700 lots.
