Peel Park, Salford, and a scene in Prestwich are among those under the hammer
There are his familiar haunts of his home city but also the unusual. Collectively, they will be sold for millions of pounds.
"The Bandstand, Peel Park", a 14in by 26in oil on canvas datting from 1941, has an estimate price of £500,000 to £800,000. It was one of the many masterpieces he created in the attic of 117 Station Road in Pendlebury, the terraced house he lived in from 1908 to 1948. L.S. Lowry's larger iconic painting which has the same title was rehung last year at the Salford gallery which bears the painter's name after it was bought for £8.1million. The 1953 painting of people on their way to watch a Bolton Wanderers match at the former Burnden Park stadium was acquired by the gallery at a Christie's auction with the entire funding coming from the Law Family Charitable Foundation.
