A signed Harry Potter book could fetch up to £1000 at auction in Glasgow.
A special rehearsal edition of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, signed by J.K. Rowling, will go under the hammer at city auction house McTear's this week.
Experts reckon it could fetch between £600 and £1000.
The book is one of a range of 191 rare toys and memorabilia going under the hammer at McTears' The Steam & Screen: Toys, Models & Pop Culture auction on July 20.
Also being auctioned are three sets of costume jewellery worn by pop icon Madonna in the 1996 film Evita.
The auction will also feature the autographs of astronaut Neil Armstrong, legendary film director Alfred Hitchcock and Glasgow's own Billy Connolly.
A selection of old movie posters for flicks including Raging Bull and Blade Runner includes the signatures of its stars, Robert De Niro and Harrison Ford respectively, amongst other cast members.
A total of 39 lots of collectable model steam trains will go under the hammer.
