The photograph, which measures 8×24 inches, is expected to sell for up to 1,500 pounds when it goes under the hammer at the auction in Stockport, Cheshire, next week, reported Mirror online.

The cards, sent over successive years, feature photos of young William and Harry growing up and are signed by the royal couple with festive greetings. (PTI)
