Whilst in service she rose in position from maid to head housekeeper, and was the inspiration for the maid in ‘’Spring cleaning ‘’, the play by frederick Lonsdale, which he wrote at Witherslack Hall in 1943/1944. The staff often communicated with their own families, and with each other by postcard, often with a line to say what time they were expected, or that they had arrived safely. They had photographs taken as postcards to send to friends and family The lady of the house insisted that all mail be delivered to her on a silver salver at breakfast each morning, where she would look at each item and pass it to the recipient. The footmen decided that it would be a great joke to send saucy postcards to the maids and bought them on their days off. They either posted them or slipped them onto the tray. Whoever was on duty at breakfast would report the lady’s reaction in the servants hall. This is why there are a number of Donald Mcgill and other saucy postcards in the collection.

Prospective buyers should note that although every effort is made to note repairs, restoration and damage in the catalogue descriptions, a lack of any such note should not be taken to imply that the lot is in perfect condition. All weights stated in the catalogue are approximate only, these figures are for reference only and prospective buyers should satisfy themselves as to the accuracy. Prospective buyers are reminded that coloured gemstones have historically been treated to enhance their appearance.A variety of methods have been, and are currently used to improve both transparency and colour of various gemstones. All yellow and white metals have not been tested. The international Jewellery Trade generally accept these methods. it is not possible for Halls to obtain gemmological reports on all stones offered for sale and therefore all Halls Holding’s estimates assume that gemstones have been enhanced.
Whilst Halls fine Art are not packers or shippers we are happy to liaise with your chosen carrier for removal of lots after sale. Please note, no lots shall be released to a carrier until payment has been received. if you have not arranged shipping with a chosen carrier, Halls fine Art can also provide a list of shippers in our area. for further information, please email peter@hallsgb.com or call 01743 450700
Prospective buyers should be aware that general wear to include; creasing, light foxing, small tears, bumped corners, worn boards or weak spine/joints, will not be specified in the catalogue descriptions. Any substantial losses/wear to include detached boards, detached spines or extensive graffiti will be described as ‘at fault’. Prospective buyers must satisfy themselves with a condition report prior to bidding, Halls Holdings can take no responsibility for condition of purchased lots if condition reports were not requested.
Although every effort is made to note damage and restoration, the absence of such information does not imply that the lot is free from defects. Detailed condition reports and email images can be obtained on request until 4.00pm the day prior to the sale.
