Ceylon Tea Centre 1955 Old Card Colombo - Tea Auctions
The Island of Ceylon. Ceylon tea is sold by auction both in Colombo and in London. It is put up for sale in "lots" (anything from 30 to 40 chests). In Colombo the buyers attend the auctions themselves but in London they are represented by brokers who buy for them. Ceylon teas are sold on Tuesdays in the famous Mincing Lane Auction Room. The auctioneer starts off by calling an opening price. Buyers shout out bids from all over the room, going up 1/4d. at a time. Suddenly the auctioneer taps the table with his hammer and that means that particular "lot" has been sold to the highest bidder. and so it goes on until all the teas for that day have been sold.
