Dimensions Dimensions are for guidance only; it is the buyer’s responsibility to ensure that they are correct. Buyer’s Premium The buyer shall pay the hammer price together with a premium thereon. 25% up to £25,000 / 20% thereafter. VAT will be charged on the premium at the rate imposed by law. (see our Terms and Conditions of Sale). VAT The symbol † by a lot number indicates that VAT is payable by the purchaser at the standard rate on the hammer price.

No VAT is payable on the hammer price or premium for books bought at auction. Droit de Suite This symbol § indicates works which may be subject to the Droit de Suite or Artist’s Resale Right, which took effect in the United Kingdom on 14th February 2006. We are required to collect a royalty payment for all qualifying works of art. Under new legislation which came into effect on 1st January 2012, this applies to living artists and artists who have died in the last 70 years. This royalty will be charged to the buyer on the hammer price and in addition to the buyer’s premium. It will not apply to works where the hammer price is less than €1,000 (euros). The charge for works of art sold at and above €1,000 (euros) and below €50,000 (euros) is 4%. For items selling above €50,000 (euros),

charges are calculated on a sliding scale. All royalty charges are paid to the appropriate collecting organisation and no handling costs or additional fees are retained by the auctioneer.

13 FD326/53 Freycinet, Rose de Journal de Madame Rose de Saulices de Freycinet [Journal du voyage autour du monde]. Paris: Société d’Éditions..., 1927. First edition, 4to, 25 plates (several coloured), original printed wrappers bound in, red gilt covers with ship and palm motif, rebacked, a little darkening, some rubbing to covers, spine faded, Cruising Association blindstamps and gilt stamps to upper cover and spine Note: This is a narrative of a voyage told, unusually, from the point of view of a woman. Between 1817 and 1820, Rose de Freycinet and her husband, Louis de Freycinet, sailed around the world onboard the Uraine, a French military ship. Louis de Freycinet was charged with taking scientific measures and natural history specimens whilst onboard the ship. Unwilling to be separated from her husband, Rose disguised herself as a man and became a ‘stowaway’ as the journey commenced. The presence of women aboard naval vessles was illegal at the time, and when Rose was revealed soon after departure, there was uproar in French society. However, nothing could be done, as the ship was not due to arrive into it’s next port - Réunion, in the Indian Ocean - until 1818. Rose de Freycinet is marked out as one of the first women to write a journal of her voyage, although this was not published until 1927. £800-1,200

In 1893, he became an editor and cartoonist for the newly founded Westminster Gazette. These cartoons were produced for this publication and depict the Conservative politician Arthur Balfour, British prime minister from 1902 to 1905. Balfour’s parliamentary programme included the extention of the Education Act and the Irish Land Purchase Act, a scheme to aid tenants in Ireland purchase land. Balfour’s tenure also covered the Entente Cordiale of 1904 and his premiership ended following his attempts to balance the interests of tariff reformers and free traders. The cartoons are commentaries on Balfour’s policies and positions within the government. £500-600

This has led to the belief that it has been compiled by an individual, and extra-illustrated. A fairly common practice, this means that the composition of this atlas is unique.

Following the Restoration, a proclamation by Charles II demanded that all copies of Eikonoklastes be burned. However, despite a pubic book burning, the proclamation did not altogether distract readers from the book, and another edition was published in 1690 following the ascension of William and Mary to the throne. £1,000-2,000 126 FG317/2 Murray, Sir Thomas The laws and acts of parliament...

She impressed society with her ability to enchant and became mistress to the Prince of Wales between 1877 and 1880. Early in her career, Langtry discovered that theatrical touring in North America could be both exciting and profitable - it was her connections, rather than her acting, which fascinated the crowds. The letter to Stephenson was written at the end of 1900, when Langtry became lessee and manager of the Imperial Theatre in London. She also successfully secured the role in A Great Lady. £300-500

177 FG732/1 Liveing, Edward H. - Scientific and Mining Papers 13 autograph notebooks, in pencil and black ink, containing detailed notes on laboratory experiments on various subjects including metallurgy, speculative ideas for further research, work on his Patent Gas Indicator (1870s), notes on the Lewis Thompson Calorimeter, reports and results of mining assays, mostly relating to coal deposits in South Wales and Queensland, and engineering notes relating to Siddeley and Wolseley motorcars, including many diagrams and sketches, 12mo, most with labels on spines; together with more than 100 leaves of further loose notes and letters, including letters received (some carbon copies), drafts of letters sent, and other papers, relating to subjects including his patented inventions and his involvement in various mining projects such as gold mining in Kalgoori, Western Australia, Southern Australia, and Transylvania, a small quantity of family correspondence, and notes from printed sources; also with 10 printed items including pamphlets by Liveing; c.1874-1923, nicks and tears, some dust staining Note: A significant archive relating to science, engineering, and mining technologies in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth century. Edward Henry Liveing was closely involved in the mining industry, both in technological developments within the industry (for example in his Patent Gas Indicator), and also in searching out new mineral deposits in Western Australia and elsewhere. His interests were much wider, however, and of particular interest are a group of papers relating to the contested invention of the electric light bulb. One of his notebooks includes “my Idea of a perfect Electric light (Feb/79)”, and in the early 1880s Liveing got drawn into the patent dispute between Thomas Edison and Joseph Swan. The papers

include a letter from Swan’s lawyers explaining their defence against Edison (2 pages, 4to, 14 June 1883), and Liveing’s draft reply outlining his involvement in and knowledge of the crucial technological innovation of a “fine Carbon Thread lamp of high resistance” that Swan had developed by early 1879, independently of Edison. £1,000-1,500 178 FG726/1 Medical Case Books - Berkshire Asylum / Moulsford Asylum Two manuscript medical case books from the Berkshire Asylum, detailing the cases of mentally ill patients: Private Patients Males, c.1891-1916, c.200 manuscript pages of patient notes and pasteddown statements of death, plus an index, including 5 copies of letters sent by one patient to his parents, another from a patient to a member of the Church Army Corps and newspaper clipping relating to individual cases; Private Patients, volume 3, c.1917-1924, c.190 manuscript pages of patient notes and pasted-down statements of death, plus an index; both original half vellum gilt, rubbed and worn, writing clear and often legible (2) Note: Asylum names taken from statements of death and ephemera. These medical case books appear to relate to the ‘County Lunatic Asylum for Berkshire’, which closed its doors in 2003 under the name of Fair Mile Hospital. The asylum was opened in 1870 and was conceived as having male and female blocks, blocks for more dangerous patients and a block for convalescent patients. The case books offer a valuable insight into the ways in which the mentally ill were treated at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries. £700-1,000

This came in the wake of years of the Clan Gregor having been restricted in their lands to Glenstrae by

the Campbells, and subsequent inter-clan battles and killings. As of 1603, the Clan Gregor would be persecuted by law, and anyone bearing this name and refusing to renounce it would be put to death. Until the edict against the clan was repealed in 1774, it was illegal to be a MacGregor, or to protect or support the cause of those who held onto the name. The commission of November 21st 1611, however, makes it clear that some people in the Highlands had indeed been resetting (protecting or supporting the interests of) members of the clan, and the Privy Council were not happy with this. The commission resolves to make examples of those resetting the clan members and lists regional noblemen and dignitaries who are given the power to call courts to try the resetters and ensure that the sentences are carried out. The commission not only underlines how vilified the Clan Gregor was by the state, but also shows that by 1611 the suppression had not been as effective as hoped. There were those still prepared to protect the interests of the Clan Gregor. A printed copy of the commission can be found in Masson’s The Register of the Privy Council of Scotland, volume 9, 1889. £2,000-3,000

[Watanabe-O’Kelly & Simon 1285; Sonneck (opera librettos), p.806; The New Grove ix, 4; The New Grove Dictionary of Opera 3, 855] Provenance: From the collection of Prince and Princess Henry De la Tour d’Auverge Lauraguais Note: This opera, first performed at the Palazzo Pitti on 8 July 1637, was the last to be held in the Medici court theatres. According to Rondinelli’s contemporary description (Relazione delle nozze degli dei), the libretto was set to music by the five principal composers of Florence, who employed counterpoint and entrancing arias, fitted to the beauty of the story (“acciochè il sentirsi varietà di stile apportasse maggior diletto à chi ascoltava”). The composers are unnamed, but evidently included Marco da Gagliano and Francesca Caccini (and, according to The New Grove, Jacopo Peri). The music was organized by the poet and composer Ferdinando Saracinelli, a collaborator with Domenico Mazzocchi, who may also have contributed to the music. £2,000-3,000 192 FG747/1 Craddock, Harry The Savoy cocktail book.

PHOTOGRAPHY 247 FF525/4 Anchor Line and the Henderson Family - Clyde Shipbuilding Over 600 photographs from the end of the 19th century (1880s and ‘90s), including c.160 with maritime links, including several portraits of sailors, Henderson family members on ships, images of ships sailing, the sailing yacht Selene and photographs of houses owned or lived in by the family, between 24x30cm and 10x7cm, in a large red half calf album, some fading, cloth loosening Note: The Anchor Line company’s origins can be traced back to 1855, when Captain Thomas Henderson from Fife became a partner in the shipping agent firm of N & R Handyside & Co, of Glasgow. The company subsequently became Handyside & Henderson, and operated a service to India. In 1856, Handyside & Henderson launced the ‘Anchor Line’ service to New York. In 1873, the company passed completely to the Henderson brothers and became known as D & W Henderson. Over the next few decades, 32 Anchor Line ships would be built. When the brothers died at the end of the 19th century, the company restructured, becoming Anchor Line (Henderson Brothers) Ltd. In 1910, Anchor Line moved its berth to the newly built Yorkhill Quay.

270 FG735/1 Burton, Richard F. Unknown artist, pastel on card said to be a portrait of Sir Richard F. Burton, attached to mount and laid-down onto board, framed and glazed, c.65x45cm Provenance: A note on the reverse of the portrait attributes it to the collection of General Sir Walter Scott. Note: In December 1844, Burton was assigned as one of the four assistants to the Sind Survey under the direction of Captain Sir Walter Scott (nephew of the famous writer). Later, in 1853, Burton disguised himself as a Pashtun (to account for any oddities in his Arabic accent) and sailed to Alexandria, with a view to performing the Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca. From Alexandria, Burton made his way to Medina and onto Mecca, where he performed the rituals of a pilgrim and finally set eyes upon the Kaaba at the centre of the Al-Masjid alHaram, Islam’s most sacred mosque. £300-500 271 FG735/6 Burton, Richard F.

Shaw (used to be Lawrence)”, to Harry Goldie, saying “You, having been one of us, get (if you want it) a gratis copy of the text of the subscribers edition. I stipulated this in my letter to the subscribers. It’s exactly the same text as they have, but has none of the illustrations... I take it, from your letter, that you’d like one of these private copies, & shall send it to you when it’s ready... Address A/C Shaw 338171, Hut 105, R.A.F.

photograph of H.H. Hussein ibn Ali, Grand Sharif of Mecca by Ronald Storrs (inscribed on verso “this photograph taken by Ronald Storrs on visit to Jeddah, obtained by me at Jeddah 1917”), an original photograph of T.E. Lawrence, Dr Hogarth and Col. Dawnay, an autograph letter signed from King Hussein to Harry Goldie, in Arabic, with typed English translation pasted to lower half of letter, dated 23/11/37 (19/8/19), the letter pasted onto card, with inscription on card verso “Letter from King Hussein on my leaving the Hejaz. 1919. Signed by himself, H. Goldie”, and the Order of Service for T.E. Lawrence’s funeral at St. Nicholas, Moreton (to which is affixed a newspaper clipping noting the chief mourners - including Mr Hary Goldie) Note: The limited edition of Lawrence’s epic masterpiece and a fine association copy. Captain [later Major] H.M. “Harry” Goldie had served during the Boer War in the the 14th company of the 5th Imperial Yeomanry [& later 26th Imperial Yeomanry]. At some point in 1916 or 1917 Goldie was attached to the Arab Bureau in Cairo. The Arab Bureau was a section of the Cairo Intelligence Department during the First World War, established in January 1916 to harmonise British political activity in the Near East. Gilbert Clayton was its head or “Chief”, David Hogarth, a Naval Intelligence officer, was Acting Director, and Lawrence was an active member. In Lowell Thomas’s With Lawrence in Arabia the author refers to a trip around Jeddah “accompanied by Major Goldie, an officer attached to the British mission which had its headquarters there during the campaign”. The Imperial War Museum photograph catalogue no. Q60009 is captioned “Captain Goldie on return from Bir Derwish after evacuation of Hejaz Expeditionary Force. Last British officer to leave the Emirs (Ali and Abudulla abna Husain al-Hashimi). At Yenbo.” According to family tradition, Captain [later Major] Harry Goldie joined Barclays Bank in Cairo after the war in which role he transmitted funds to Lawrence. See also in this sale, Lawrence’s Revolt in the Desert with autographed letter to Goldie, and the manuscript koran brought back from Jerusalem by Goldie. Amongst other awards, Goldie was awarded The Order of Al Nahda of the Kingdom of the Hijaz by King Hussain Bin Ali of the Hijaz . British recipients of the Order of Al Nahda were published in the London Gazette, Goldie receiving the Order, 3rd class, on 16 January 1920, with him being listed as “Goldie, HM, T/Capt. Special List.” In addition to the usual text, bound in at the beginning are four pages “Some notes on the writing of the Seven Pillars of Wisdom by T.E. Shaw” This was a single fold leaflet, of which about 200 copies were produced in 1927 for distribution to subscribers of the Cranwell edition. [O’Brien, A039] Note: O’Brien, A040. £15,000-20,000

STANDARD TERMS & CONDITIONS OF SALE Lyon & Turnbull carries on business with bidders, buyers and all those present in the auction room prior to, or in connection, with a sale on the following General Conditions and on such other terms, conditions and notices as may be referred to herein. 1. DEFINITIONS In these Conditions: (a) “Auctioneer” means the firm of Lyon & Turnbull or its authorised auctioneer, as appropriate; (b) “deliberate forgery” means an imitation made with the intention of deceiving as to authorship, origin, date, age, period, culture or source but which is unequivocally described in the catalogue as being the work of a particular creator and which, at the date of the sale, had a value materially less than it would have had if it had been in accordance with the description; (c) “hammer price” means the level of bidding reached (at or above any reserve) when the auctioneer brings down the hammer; (d) “terms of consignment” means the stipulated terms and rates of commission on which Lyon & Turnbull accepts instructions from sellers or their agents; (e) “total amount due” means the hammer price in respect of the lot sold together with any premium, Value Added Tax chargeable and any additional charges payable by a defaulting buyer under these Conditions; (f) “sale proceeds” means the net amount due to the seller, being the hammer price of the lot sold less commission at the stated rate, Value Added Tax chargeable and any other amounts due to us by the seller in whatever capacity and however arising; (g) “You”, “Your”, etc. refer to the buyer as identified in Condition 2. (h) The singular includes the plural and vice versa as appropriate. 2. BIDDING PROCEDURES AND THE BUYER (a) Bidders are required to register their particulars before bidding and to satisfy any security arrangements before entering the auction room to view or bid; (b) the maker of the highest bid accepted by the auctioneer conducting the sale shall be the buyer at the hammer price and any dispute about a bid, which must be raised before the next lot is offered, shall be settled at the auctioneer’s absolute discretion. (c) Bidders shall be deemed to act as principals.

We are required to collect a royalty payment for all qualifying works of art. Under new legislation which came into effect on 1st January 2012, this applies to living artists and artists who have died in the last 70 years. This royalty will be charged to the buyer on the hammer price and in addition to the buyers premium. It will not apply to works where the hammer price is less than €1,000 (euros). The charge for works of art sold at and above €1,000 (euros) and below €50,000 (euros) is 4%. For items selling above €50,000 (euros),charges are calculated on a sliding scale. All royalty charges are paid to the Design and Artists Copyright Society (‘DACS’) and no handling costs or additional fees are retained by the auctioneer. Resale royalties are not subject to VAT. Please note that the royalty payment is calculated on the rate of exchange at the European Central Bank on the date of the sale. More information on Droit de Suite is available at www.dacs.org.uk. 7. PAYMENT (1) Immediately a lot is sold you will: (a) pay to us the total amount due in cash or in such other way as is agreed by us. We accept cash, bank transfer (details on request), Switch or Debit Cards and Visa or MasterCard (please note there is a surcharge of 2% (VAT included) when using credit cards). We do not accept American Express. (2) any payments by you to us may be applied by us towards any sums owing from you to us on any account whatever without regard to any directions of you or your agent, whether express or implied. 8. TITLE AND COLLECTION OF PURCHASES (1) The ownership of any lots purchased shall not pass to you until you have made payment in full to us of the total amount due. (2) You shall at your own risk and expense take away any lots that you have purchased and paid for not later than four working days following the day of the auction or upon the clearance of any cheque used for payment after which you shall be responsible for any removal, storage and other associated charges. (3) No purchase can be claimed or removed until it has been paid for. (4) It is the buyer’s responsibility to ascertain collection procedures, particularly if the sale is not being held at our main saleroom and the potential storage charges for lots not collected by the appropriate time. 9. REMEDIES FOR NON-PAYMENT OR FAILURE TO COLLECT PURCHASES

3. INCREMENTS

(1) If any lot is not paid for in full and taken away in accordance with these Conditions or if there is any other breach of these Conditions, we, as agent for the seller and on their behalf, shall at our absolute discretion and without prejudice to any other rights we may have, be entitled to exercise one or more of the following rights and remedies:

86

(c) to resell the lot (by auction or private treaty) in which case you shall be responsible for any resulting deficiency in the total amount due (after crediting any part payment and adding any resale costs). Any surplus so arising shall belong to the seller;

your agent at future auctions or to impose conditions before any such bids shall be accepted; (h) to apply any proceeds of sale of other lots due or in future becoming due to you towards the settlement of the total amount due and to exercise a lien (that is a right to retain possession of) any of your property in our possession for any purpose until the debt due is satisfied. (2) We shall, as agent for the seller and on their behalf pursue these rights and remedies only as far as is reasonable to make appropriate recovery in respect of breach of these Conditions 10. THIRD PARTY LIABILITY All members of the public on our premises are there at their own risk and must note the lay-out of the accommodation and security arrangements. Accordingly neither the auctioneer nor our employees or agents shall incur liability for death or personal injury (except as required by law by reason of our negligence) or similarly for the safety of the property of persons visiting prior to or at a sale. 11. COMMISSION BIDS While prospective buyers are strongly advised to attend the auction and are always responsible for any decision to bid for a particular lot and shall be assumed to have carefully inspected and satisfied themselves as to its condition we shall if so instructed clearly and in writing execute bids on their behalf. Neither the auctioneer or our employees or agents shall be responsible for any failure to do so. Where two or more commission bids at the same level are recorded we reserve the right in our absolute discretion to prefer the first bid so made. 12. WARRANTY OF TITLE AND AVAILABILITY The seller warrants to the auctioneer and to you that the seller is the true owner of the property consigned or is properly authorised by the true owner to consign it for sale and is able to transfer good and marketable title to the property free from any third party claims. 13. AGENCY The auctioneer normally acts as agent only and disclaims any responsibility for default by sellers or buyers. 14. TERMS OF SALE The seller acknowledges that lots are sold subject to the stipulations of these Conditions in their entirety and on the Terms of Consignment as notified to the consignor at the time of the entry of the lot. 15.

(3) Aftersales: We reserve the right to accept an after-auction offer on a lot on behalf of the vendor, at the agreed reserve price or above, for up to 48 hours after the original auction.

(f) to retain that or any other lot sold to you until you pay the total amount due;

16. DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITION

(g) to reject or ignore bids from you or

(1) While we seek to describe lots accurately, it may be impractical for us to

carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot. Prospective buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description applied to a lot.
