Glen Chapman
Specialist in Vintage Toys, incl. Star Wars, Comics, Pop Culture & Police Memorabilia
Glen has over 30 years experience in dealing with Vintage Toys. In 1987 he opened a specialist shop in Greenwich, South East London, called 'Unique Collections'. For many years he ran a mail order business out of this shop, producing a catalogue for vintage toys, specialising in diecast models and Police memorabilia with the help of his father. With the mass introduction of the internet, Glen took the bull by the horns and was one of the first full-time dealers to launch his own specialist website.
In 2013 he decided to launch a new business selling Vintage Toys/Police Memorabilia for clients at auction, and formed C&T Auctioneers and Valuers with fellow director, Matthew Tredwen. This business was an instant success, achieving many high prices for clients.
With James Opie's recent step back from being the sole Toy Soldier Specialist at C&T, and alternatively offering his expertise as a consultant, Glen has taken up the mantle alongside our Fine Doll & Train Toy Specialist, Leigh Gotch.
