246* Slavery & racism. ‘Alligator Bait’, c.1897, b & w photograph of nine negro children, printed title in separate mount aperture below image, 140 x 520mm, mounted, framed and glazed A disturbing social document indicative of the casual and ingrained racism which was so very prevalent in the southern states of America. There are contemporary written accounts of black children being used as bait for alligators but the term was more widely used as a derogatory description for all black children. The state of Florida used variations of this image for over fifty years on souvenirs and postcards and as a marketing tool for various products including fans, liquorice drops and stain remover. The alligator with a child in its mouth was also used in a three dimensional form as a music cover, bottle opener and a pencil holder. That an American state should choose to promote and market itself to tourists with such an overt violent and racist conceit is extraordinary but is perhaps all too indicative of the casual insidious racism which shamed the southern United States well into the 20th century.

The memoranda book gives details of assessments of taxes to be raised at the rate of between twopence and eight pence per acre, plus details of letters, etc., relating to ship money.

Authoress Eliza Laura Emmerson, whose annotations appear in the second volume of 'The Village Minstrel', was introduced to John Clare by Lord Radstock. At their first meeting Mrs. Emmerson burst into bitter laments at the rustic poet's "desolate appearance" and wept that "so much genius and so much poverty" should go together. Clare was stung by her reaction, which compounded the angst he felt about his labourer's garb as he moved amongst the smart and fashionable of London. However, subsequent interviews modified Clare's first impression of Mrs. Emmerson, who became a close friend and helper of the 'Northamptonshire Peasant' as she called Clare. Indeed John Clare became quite obsessed with Eliza at one point, until their relationship cooled, writing her scores of passionate letters, calling her his Laura, addressing verses to 'E.L.E.', and asking for her portrait. Mrs. Emmerson is full of praise for Clare's poetry in her annotations to 'The Village Minstrel', with notes such as: "full of sober Christian feeling. I think like you my dr. Clare, E.L.E."; "An astonishing effort this - for such a man as Clare! - full of lonely, and sweet feeling"; "This lovely poem was first written to me, in a Letter from the Author. E.L.E."; "Thou art indeed the Inspired poet of Nature my dear friend! - E.L.E.". The subsequent ownership of E. Goodfellow, Helpston, is curious, as the last private owner of John Clare's cottage in Helpston was owned by a Mrs. Robin Goodfellow, who sold the property to the John Clare Trust in 2005.

441 [Shelley, Percy Bysshe, 1792-1822]. The Holy Court in Three Tomes, written in French by Nicolas Caussin, translated into English by Sr. T[homas] H[awkins]. The Third Tome now first published in English: the first and second newly reviewed, [Rouen], printed by John Cousturier, 1634, [bound with] The Holy Court Fourth Tome, [Rouen], printed by John Cousturier, 1638, 4 parts in 1, each with separate register and pagination, nine full-page or smaller eng. ports., historiated and other woodcut initials, each vol. lacking an addn. eng. title-page, also lacking N3 in the First Tome, and M6 and P6 in the Second Tome, some soiling and staining in the text, some side-notes just touched by the binder, a few leaves frayed at the foreedge, one with some paper restoration affecting the side-notes, without covers, and with the remains of an old calf spine, stitching intact, small folio STC 4874 and 4875. Inscribed in ink in a neat, legible hand on the first titlepage “Percy Bysshe Shelley. Hillson. Aug.7.06”.The poet Shelley (1792-1822) was fourteen years old and a pupil at Eton College at this time. The inscription, neatly and formally written, is not in Shelley’s own hand, as evidenced by comparison with examples of his holograph and signature. A Thesaurus in Eton College Library, inscribed and dated by Shelley in the same year, 1806, shows that even at the age of fourteen his signature was formed and very similar to that of his adult years. The obvious variation with Shelley’s hand precludes this from being an attempt at a forgery, thus suggesting that this is a presentation inscription, giving the volume to the youthful and precocious Shelley. It is perhaps relevant to observe that his birthday fell just three days before the date of the inscription, on 4th August. Extensive research has failed to identify “Hillson”, either as a place or name. It does not appear in the standard Gazetteers, nor has any reference been found to anyone of that name having connections with Percy Bysshe or the Shelley family. In August Shelley would have been on vacation from Eton, it is therefore perhaps a house name of a friend or family acquaintance. Caussin’s text does not appear in any of the published “reading lists” of Shelley, and, apart from the inscription, the volume does not contain any other annotation whatsoever. (1) £200-300

Conditions of Sale and Business 7. Any representation or statement by the Auctioneer in any catalogue, brochure or advertisement of forthcoming sales as to authorship, attribution, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price is a statement of opinion only. Every person interested should exercise and rely on his own judgement as to such matters and neither the Auctioneer nor his servants or agents are responsible for the correctness of such opinions. No warranty whatsoever is given by the Auctioneer or the seller in respect of any lot and any express or implied warranties are hereby excluded.
1. The Seller warrants to the Auctioneer and the buyer that he is the true owner or is properly authorised to sell the property by the true owner and is able to transfer good and marketable title to the property free from any third party claims. 2. (a) The highest bidder to be the buyer. If during the auction the Auctioneer considers that a dispute has arisen he has absolute authority to settle it or re-offer the lot. The Auctioneer may at his sole discretion determine the advance of bidding or refuse a bid, divide any lot, combine any two or more lots or withdraw any lot without prior notice. (b) Where goods are bought at auction by a buyer who has entered into an agreement with another or others that the other or others (or some of them) shall abstain from bidding for the goods and the buyer or other party or one of the other parties is a dealer (as defined in the Auction Biddings Agreement Act 1927) the buyer warrants that the goods are bought bona fide on joint account.
8. (a) Notwithstanding any other terms of these conditions, if within fourteen days of the sale the Auctioneer has received from the buyer of any lot notice in writing that in his view the lot is a deliberate forgery and within fourteen days after such notification the buyer returns the same to the Auctioneer in the same condition as at the time of the sale and satisfies the Auctioneer that considered in the light of the entry in the catalogue the lot is a deliberate forgery then the sale of the lot will be rescinded and the purchase price of the same refunded. "A deliberate forgery" means a lot made with intention to deceive. (b) A buyer's claim under this condition shall be limited to any amount paid to the Auctioneer for the lot and for the purpose of this condition the buyer shall be the person to whom the original invoice was made out by the Auctioneer.
3. The buyer shall pay the price at which a lot is knocked down by the Auctioneer to the buyer (“the hammer price”) together with a premium of 19.5% of the hammer price. Where the lot is marked by an asterisk the premium will be subject to VAT at 23.40% which under the Auctioneer’s Margin Scheme will form part of the buyer’s premium on our invoice and will not be separately identified (the premium added to the hammer price will hereafter collectively be referred to as “the total sum due”). By making any bid the buyer acknowledges that his attention has been drawn to the fact that on the sale of any lot the Auctioneer will receive from the seller commission at its usual rates in addition to the said premium of 19.5% and assents to the Auctioneer receiving the said commission.
9. Lots may be removed during the sale after full settlement in accordance with 4(d) hereof. 10. All goods delivered to the Auctioneer's premises will be deemed to be delivered for sale by auction unless otherwise stated in writing and will be catalogued and sold at the Auctioneer's discretion and accepted by the Auctioneer subject to all these conditions. In the case of miscellaneous books, the Auctioneer reserves the right to extract and dispose of books that, in the opinion of the Auctioneer at his absolute discretion, have no saleable value and, therefore, might detract from the saleability of the rest of the lot and the Auctioneer shall incur no liability to the seller, in respect of the books disposed of. By delivering the goods to the Auctioneer for inclusion in his auction sales each seller acknowledges that he/she accepts and agrees to all the conditions.
4. (a) The buyer shall forthwith upon the purchase give in his name and permanent address and pay to the Auctioneer immediately after the conclusion of the auction the total sum due. (b) The buyer may be required to pay down during the course of the sale the whole or any part of the total sum due, and if he fails to do so after such request the lot or lots may at the Auctioneer's absolute discretion be put up again and resold immediately. (c) The buyer shall at his own expense take away any lot or lots purchased no later than five working days after the auction day. (d) The Auctioneer may at his own discretion agree credit terms with a buyer and extend the time limits for collection in special cases but otherwise payment shall be deemed to have been made only after the Auctioneer has received cash or a sterling banker’s draft or the buyer's cheque has been cleared.
11. (a) Unless otherwise instructed in writing all goods on the Auctioneer's premises and in their custody will be held insured against the risks of fire, burglary, water damage and accidental breakage or damage. The value of the goods so covered will be the hammer price, or in the case of unsold lots the best bid, or in the case of loss or damage prior to the sale that which the specialised staff of the Auctioneer shall in their absolute discretion estimate to be the auction value of such goods. (b) The Auctioneer shall not be responsible for damage to or the loss, theft, or destruction of any goods not so insured because of the owner’s written instructions.
5. (a) If the buyer fails to pay for or take away any lot or lots pursuant to clause 4 or breaches any other condition of that clause the Auctioneer as agent for the seller shall be entitled after consultation with the seller to exercise one or other of the following rights: (i) Rescind the sale of that or any other lots sold to the buyer who defaults and re-sell the lot or lots whereupon the defaulting buyer shall pay to the Auctioneer any shortfall between the proceeds of that sale after deduction of costs of re-sale and the total sum due. Any surplus shall belong to the seller. (ii) Proceed for damages for breach of contract. (b) Without prejudice to the Auctioneer's rights hereunder if any lots or lots are not collected within five days or such longer period as the Auctioneer may have agreed otherwise, the Auctioneer may charge the buyer a storage charge of £1.00 + VAT at the current rate per lot per day. (c) Ownership of the lot purchased shall not pass to the buyer until he has paid to the Auctioneer the total sum due.
12. The Auctioneer shall remit the proceeds of the sale to the seller thirty days after the day of the auction provided that the Auctioneer has received the total sum due from the buyer. In all other cases the Auctioneer will remit the proceeds of the sale to the seller within seven days of the receipt by the Auctioneer of the total sum due. The Auctioneer will not be deemed to have received the total sum due until after any cheque delivered by the buyer has been cleared. In the event of the Auctioneer exercising his right to rescind the sale his obligation to the seller hereunder lapses.
6. (a) The seller shall be entitled to place a reserve on any lot and the Auctioneer shall have the right to bid on behalf of the seller for any lot on which a reserve has been placed. A seller may not bid on any lot on which a reserve has been placed. (b) Where any lot fails to sell, the Auctioneer shall notify the seller accordingly. The seller shall make arrangements either to re-offer the lot for sale or to collect the lot and may be asked to pay a commission not exceeding 50% of the selling commission and any special expenses incurred in cataloguing the lot. (c) If such arrangements are not made within seven days of the notification the Auctioneer is empowered to sell the lot by auction or by private treaty at not less than the reserve price and to receive from the seller the normal selling commission and special expenses.
13. In the case of the seller withdrawing instructions to the Auctioneer to sell any lot or lots, the Auctioneer may charge a fee of 12.5% of the Auctioneer's middle estimate of the auction price of the lot withdrawn together with Value Added Tax thereon and any expenses incurred in respect of the lot or lots. 14. The Auctioneer’s current standard notices and information (i.e. Collation and Amendments) will apply to any contract with the Auctioneer as if incorporated herein. 15. These conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English Law.
