After a bidding war the copy was sold to a collector at a Glasgow auction
After finding themselves in a bidding war, the special edition was sold to a collector for £970.
The script is signed by Harry Potter author JK Rowling, making it a special rehearsal edition, which made the play's director John Tiffany and playwright Jack Thorne, the subject of a lively battle at McTear's auction on Thursday. A collection of rare Marvel and DC comics fetched almost £4,000 while 39 lots made up of model railway pieces and die-cast locomotives, steam trains and carriages drew bids totalling more than £10,000.However costume jewellery worn on-screen by pop icon Madonna in the 1996 film Evita did not hit its reserve price and did not sell.McTear's specialist James Spiridion said: "There was truly something for every model and pop culture enthusiast in this auction.
"Any memorabilia associated with Harry Potter always attracts huge interest so it wasn't surprising when the bids started coming in for the rehearsal copy of the Cursed Child.
