If you would like to be the owner of a unique piece of political memorabilia associated with David Lloyd George, you will have to attend the auction rooms at Welshpool Town Hall next month, when you will have a chance to bid for a George III drop leaf bureau made in oak which is being sold as having belonged to the former Liberal prime minister.
Among other items in the sale are photographs showing Lloyd George sitting at what appears to be the same desk. The sale is expected to take place on 8 August.
