Ebay is a fantastic platform via which to
communicate. I am Eric Knowles. I am unquestionably a people person in so far
as I like to know the person at the end of the telephone, or those with whom I
like to know the seller.
Please do
not think me egotistical, however, it is important that people know exactly who
I am. I have been involved in the antiques business since 1971. My career took
a leap forward when I joined Bonhams in 1976. Some five years later I became
head of the Decorative Arts department. The same year I was invited by the BBC
to take part in the Antiques Roadshow four decades later I am still enjoying
being a part of the team.
