<\/p>\nAn Antiques Roadshow guest was left stunned by the incredible value of a Hollywood film score after picking it up at a car boot sale for just \u00a35.<\/p>\n
Sunday’s instalment saw the series head to\u00a0Wollaton Hall in\u00a0Nottingham, which just happened to double as Wayne Manor in Christopher Nolan’s blockbuster Batman trilogy.<\/p>\n
The musical score, which the guest discovered on sale in a ‘rather scruffy folder’ featured hand written notes by famed American composer\u00a0Bernard Herrmann.<\/p>\n
Best known for his work for TV and film, Bernard created the iconic music for Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho (1960) Orson Welles’ Citizen Kane (1941) and TV’s The Twilight Zone.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Explaining how he came across the item the man said:\u00a0”There was a man in front of me and it was offered off for \u00a35 but he didn’t want it so I gladly took it’.<\/p>\n

Iconic:\u00a0The musical score, which the guest discovered on sale in a ‘rather scruffy folder’ featured hand written notes by famed American composer Bernard Herrmann who created the music for classic movies like Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho (pictured)\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adding: ‘I had a quick look through but for what was in the box, and it certainly looked like it was worthwhile for \u00a35.’\u00a0<\/p>\n
While expert Justin Croft revealed the score was ‘Bernard’s own copy’ for 1952 drama The Snows of Kilimanjaro which starred Hollywood heartthrob Gregory Peck.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Telling the guest: ‘What I like about it is there is a lot of annotation and that takes us closer to matching the score with the film’.<\/p>\n
Moving on the the valuation he said:\u00a0‘I think it does have some value. It may not be his most important film score, it’s not the one which everyone knows him for’.<\/p>\n
‘For you to have an original version of it with his corrections and with his annotation done at the time of fitting it with the film together, I think that is important.’<\/p>\n
Before shocking the guest by announcing it would be worth a whopping \u00a3800 to \u00a31000 at auction.<\/p>\n
Delighted the man quipped: ‘Not bad for \u00a35’.<\/p>\n
Throughout his career Bernard (1911-1975) was awarded an Oscar in 1941 for his score for The Devil and Daniel Webster and 1976’s Taxi Driver, which he was awarded posthumously after passing away a year earlier.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

It comes after another guest was left stunned to learn the real value of an old cigar which her grandsons had found in her attic.<\/p>\n
The series filmed from London’s Crystal Palace, with one woman bringing along a whole host of Second World War memorabilia.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She presented medals\u00a0to\u00a0expert Mark Smith, which had once belonged to her late French father-in law, however they lacked certification and was disappointed to discover to be worth only \u00a3120.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The lady had also brought along an old cigar in a cardboard tube saying: ‘As you can see it’s addressed to Morris [her father in-law] from Mr Churchill’.<\/p>\n
Amongst the boxes her grandsons had also discovered a newspaper clipping about the former Prime Minister Winston Churchill meeting French soldiers which Mark read: ‘Churchill called for Champagne and gave each member of the delegation one of his famous cigars’.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Flabbergasted the memorabilia aficionado said: ‘You actually have one of [Churchill’s] cigars, isn’t this fantastic!’.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Before giving the item a valuation of \u00a32,000, leaving it’s owner astonished asking: ‘No, really?’.<\/p>\n

Winston Churchill (1874-1965) was British Prime Minister twice and led the nation through the Second World War and become synonymous with smoking cigars.<\/p>\n
He famously once said: ‘I drink a great deal. I sleep a little, and I smoke cigar after cigar. That is why I am in two-hundred-percent form’.<\/p>\n
