The reading glasses of former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill (1874-1965) were auctioned off for USD 9.8k - almost five times more than their pre-announced value. Catherine Southton, owner of auction house Catherine Southon Auctioneers & Valuers, announced on TASS by telephone.
"There was a fierce bidding for the glasses, many people made bets on the phone but eventually they went to a UK buyer," said Southwestern, adding that she could not reveal the name of the new owner.
The initial bid price of the round turtle-sunglasses frames produced by CW Dixey & Son cost USD 1-2 thousand.

At the time of his death in 1965, in his office there were 3 pairs currently stored in private collections
