Wilsons Auctions’ Group Asset Recovery Manager, Aidan Larkin said, “We are delighted to have been instructed to manage the disposal of a large number of movie memorabilia items including vehicles, props, merchandise and much more, which are being sold as a result of a police seizure.

"October’s Unreserved Government Auction will be an Aladdin’s cave of memorabilia and collectibles, all going under the hammer with no reserve.

"We believe the auction will appeal to a worldwide audience from the avid collector to the casual buyer, whether it’s for a man-cave or a museum, there truly is something for everyone.

“This auction highlights the important role Wilsons Auctions plays in realising important assets on behalf of our law enforcement agencies and public sector bodies which facilitates our unreserved government auctions each month.

"Wilsons Auctions’ Asset Recovery Department has assisted in the realization of in excess of £85 million being returned back into the public purse in recent years.

"Items include government repossessions and proceeds of crime related assets all of which are sold to the highest bidder with no reserve."

A Wiltshire Police spokesman said the items were seized under the Proceeds of Crime Act following the conviction of Martin Fillery.

Fillery, 45, of Pedwell Hill, Ashcott, was sentenced to eight years imprisonment last month for conspiracy to produce class B drugs, abstracting electricity and money laundering.

The case related to the discovery of a large scale cannabis factory in a former nuclear bunker in Chilmark.

Following Fillery’s conviction, a financial investigation is being carried out to determine the extent of his benefit from the criminal activity, and to identify assets which may represent a lifestyle funded by crime.

The investigation is currently ongoing and a confiscation hearing is due to be held next year at a date yet to be set.
