You could be the lucky owner of this sign… and everything else inside Heathrow Airport’s Terminal 1
Items from baggage carousels to check-in desks are going under the hammer as the entire contents of Heathrow Airport’s Terminal 1 is sold.
Security scanners from the terminal, which was closed down in 2015, are also being auctioned off.
Other things up for grabs include 15 escalators, 1950s artwork and more than 2,000 security cameras.
Auction firm CA Global Partners hopes to fetch a six-figure sum when the items go under the hammer on April 21.
