When Ronnie Proctor stepped through the door of Alistair Allan’s personal museum, he admits he was a little overwhelmed.
It could have something to do with the fact the Proctors Auctions manager was tasked with auctioning off the several thousands of items in Oamaru this weekend.
From restored tractors, petrol bowsers and machinery to gramophones and radios – it appears there is nothing Mr Allan has not collected.
However, Mr Allan has decided now is the time for him to say goodbye to his collection, and let everything go to new homes.
