Found this on PPruNe a few days ago but I haven’t seen anything on here yet: http://www.pprune.org/military-aircrew/526832-brian-trubshaws-logbooks-sale.html
The auction site is here: http://www.the-saleroom.com/fr-fr/auction-catalogues/dominic-winter-book-auctions/catalogue-id-2888949?categoryid=165544
A shame that this was announced at short notice (at least I only picked this up a few days ago) as with a bit of preparation I’m sure Brooklands or Yeovilton would have loved to put in a bid. This stuff really belongs in a museum so I’m hoping someone will put up the money and loan/donate them to a suitable venue. Another option would be for the buyer/seller to let them make copies of the logbooks.

Apologies! I missed that one. It made the US Aviation news: http://www.avweb.com/eletter/archives/101/2669-full.html?ET=avweb:e2669:227926a:&st=email#220906

I agree with your and the Pprune poster’s sentiments.
