Her father must have paid the necessary subscription for her, and he probably did so believing that his daughter’s talent deserved encouragement (she began writing ‘First Impressions’ in October 1796).

Jane’s cousins, the Cookes of Bookham, were some of Fanny Burney’s closest friends while the latter was living nearby between 1793 and 1797, and it is quite likely that they were active in obtaining subscribers. Jane Austen makes reference to ‘Camilla’ in ‘Northanger Abbey’.

217 Hippisley (John Coxe). The Substance of Additional Observations Intended to have been Delivered in the House of Commons, in the Debate on the Petition of the Roman Catholics of Ireland, of the 13th and 14th of May, 1805, pub. R. Faulder, 1806, half title, Appendix at end, scattered spotting, original boards, loss at head of spine, 8vo

The text lost as a result of a printing flaw on p.232 should read: “... Wright, when my intention was frustrated by Mrs. Dudley giving me a very pressing invitation to accompany her for the summer to her husband’s country seat in Yorkshire”. Gomersall’s rare first novel. Although little is known about Ann Gomersall (1750-1835), her work gained much critical praise during its time.

Both the ‘Critical’ and ‘Monthly Review’ praised ‘Eleonora’ for its simple plot, moral lessons, and Yorkshire humour. The novel was also commended for its perceptive rendering of class distinctions and relationships, particularly that between working class and employer. More recently her novels have been described as “superior to those of most other female writers of the period” (Janet Todd, ‘A Dictionary of British and American Women Writers’, 1660-1800, London, 1987, p.137).

Typical of the work of Queen’s Binder A, with distinctive tools such as the fourpetalled flower tool which has slightly elongated, rather than circular, petals.

Furthermore, the all-over drawer-handle design is typical of octavo volumes from Binder A’s workshop, as is the dotted-line eight-petalled flower tool. It seems probable from Howard Nixon’s research that Queens’ Binder A is William Nott. Nott was an important figure in the book trade, as a bookseller, stationer and publisher, as well as binder. Samuel Pepys called him “the famous bookbinder” and visited his workshop in 1668: “I did take occasion for curiosity to bespeak a book to be bound, only that I might have one of his binding”. (cf. Howard Nixon, Five Centruies of English Bookbinding, 1979).

Leslie Hurry (1909-1978), a British artist and pre-eminent set designer for ballet, theatre and opera, worked with some of the best directors of his time including Tyrone Guthrie, Peter Brook and Peter Hall. He was born in London, the son of a St. John’s Wood undertaker. Preferring not to go into the family business, he won a scholarship to the Royal Academy Schools. His long and distinguished association with the theatre began in 1942 when dancer and choreographer, Robert Helpmann, saw Hurry’s work in a London exhibition and commissioned him to produce designs for a production of ‘Hamlet’ to be staged by Sadler’s Wells Ballet Company. Hurry’s work is marked by a fluency of line and meticulous detail, leaning towards fantasy with a strong vein of the macabre. The vendor of this work and the following items was gifted the collection by a friend of Leslie Hurry, the American architect Robert Parsons. In 1970 Robert Parsons took over the tenancy of the National Trust property, Newark Park, and began a painstaking programme of renovation, conservation and rehabilitation to both the house and the gardens, and the works here offered for sale were on view at the property in recent years.

With ink annotations by Leslie Hurry, including: ‘As in Ping and Pong this costume must be magnificent yet grotesque’.

An interesting and previously unrecorded portrait by Coburn. It seems likely that this photograph would have been taken sometime in the months following February 1913 when Kathleen learned of the death of her husband, the Antarctic explorer Captain Robert Scott (1868-1912). The focusing of the photograph is pinpointed on the eyes of the grieving mother leaving Peter’s features indistinct and ‘lost’. Peter’s godfather was J.M. Barrie, creator of Peter Pan. Both J.M. Barrie and Kathleen Scott corresponded with Coburn and the motifs in the story of Peter Pan are all cleverly echoed here.

An exceptionally rare complete set of casino chips from this famous Club.

While the Club still exists, its status and activities were severely curtailed by the Castro Government following the 1959 Revolution. The Club featured in Graham Greene’s novel ‘Our Man in Havana’. There are believed to be only two other complete sets of these chips ($1, $5, $10, $20, $25, $50, $75, $100, $500 and $1000 demoninations) outside of North America. The framing and display matches the second set offered here in colour and exact height.

Famous for its opulent floor-shows and fine dining, the $14,000,000 hotel became a centre for high-stake gamblers from around the world. It was owned by Meyer Lansky and his associates, but a year after the Castro Revolution it was nationalised by the Government resulting in its immediate closure with no compensation being paid to its former owners.

He took the famous post-accident photographs, but out of respect for his friends and family he destroyed the negatives of Dean.

The portrait of Eugene Hay Cameron (son of Julia Margaret Cameron) shows him as a younger man than can be traced in other photographs. W[illiam de l’Etang] Bayley (1849-1867) was a nephew of Julia Margaret Cameron (son of her sister Louisa and husband Henry Vincent Bayley). The photograph of him during convalescence would appear to be taken around 1860 and at a younger age than the four photographs of him to be found in Graham Ovenden, ‘A Victorian Album: Julia Margaret Cameron and Her Circle’ (1975). Two of these later portraits are tentatively attributed to Lewis Carroll or O.G. Rejlander.

Francis Home Atkinson (1840-1901) of Morland Hall, Westmorland, matriculated at Caius College, Cambridge; BA 1861. He became a private tutor to the Tennyson children. He stayed with Dodgson at Christ Church and contributed to ‘College Rhymes’. In 1880 he became curate first of St. Paul’s, then of All Souls, Jersey.

Dodgson took a photograph of Atkinson at Christ Church, Oxford, (Princeton University Library album A(II):73) but this portrait is not to be found in the album offered here.

Frank May (1832-1897) was chief cashier of the Bank of England between 1873 and 1893. The New York Times reported his death on 10th February 1897: 'The death of Frank May, formerly cashier of the Bank of England, recalls the exciting circumstances of his resignation in November, 1893. At that time Mr May had been chief cashier of the Bank of England for twenty years, and was practically manager of the institution. He suddenly resigned after a mysterious meeting of the Board of Directors, and for several days exciting rumours circulated in London that something was wrong with the finances. The real facts came out slowly, and they showed that May had induced the officers of the bank to lend money on doubtful securities, the collapse of which caused a loss to the institution of about £50,000. Cashier May's son was junior partner of the stockbrokerage firm of Coleman & May, which was closely connected with several unfortunate trust companies. It was reported, after the cashier's resignation, that the Bank of England had lost heavily through advances to these insolvent trust companies, but officers of the bank denied that there had been any heavy losses. Cashier May was allowed a liberal annuity, and after he resigned he retired to his country seat at St. Albans'.

Engravings and written descriptions of surfing in the western world date back to the time of Captain Cook’s visit in 1778 but with the influx of missionaries and their teachings from the 1820s the pastime was all but stamped out. At the time these albums seem to have been compiled surfing only existed in small pockets, becoming widespread once more around the turn of the century. The Hawaiian monarchy was overthrown in January 1893 giving a more specific timeframe for some of these photographs and photographs of the volcanic lava are dated between 1887 and 1897. Generally, the tones of the Fiji photographs are stronger, many of these images being contained in two albums held by the Mitchell Library in New South Wales. The Bishop Museum in Honolulu holds 24.7 million items relating to Hawaii and the Pacific. Last autumn it held an exhibition about surfing and included their copy of the same image of the lone surfer as a highlight of the exhibition.

When Castro took power in 1959, one of his first acts was to plough up all but one of Cuba’s golf courses, leaving just a nine-hole course. The exact date and reasons for this game are not known. One suggestion is that Castro set up the match as a publicity stunt to mock President Eisenhower who had refused to meet him in Washington, having chosen to play golf instead. What does seem to be known is that Guevara beat Castro.

A remarkable complete album showing Stromness and the Stromnessians in full detail. The album begins on the Point of Ness, before the pier was built for the herring fishing and continues its tour into the town along Ness Road to Stanger’s Brae, South End, Alfred Street, etc., landmarks include the town hall and museum, the distillery, the old police station and the old post office.

On the sea appears the St. Olaf, the North of Scotland company’s ship on the Pentland Firth which crossed from 1882 to 1890. Also seen in several photographs is the lugger the Pioneer K219 which was built in the 1870s.

Provenance: Bought by the current owner at Bennettos, a small bookshop and wireless repair shop in Ilfracombe, North Devon, in the late 1960s. The bookshop owner had in turn obtained the album as part of a house clearance from a Georgian mansion at Cowley Bridge, Exeter. The new owner happily showed it to his friend the poet John Betjeman who was the first to identify it as Stromness. The album was then lent to another friend who in turn lent it to the Stromness Museum. Some or all of the photographs were copied by the Museum and used in two books: ‘Stromness: Late 19th Century Photographs’, Stromness, 1972; ‘Orkney from Old Photographs’, by Gordon Wright, Edinburgh, 1981. To date, the identity of the photographer of this evocative suite remains unknown.

Conditions of Sale and Business 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.

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.

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 17.5% of the hammer price. Where the lot is marked by an asterisk the premium will be subject to VAT at 20% 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 17.5% 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 for which insurance the Auctioneer will charge a premium of £1.50 per £100. 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.
