John Bernard Bury (1917-2017) 5

JOHN BERNARD BURY (1917-2017)

John Bury was educated at Westminster School and Balliol College, Oxford, where he studied History. Although after the end of the Second World War he chose to became a businessman and worked for the Shell Oil Company, he maintained his scholarly interest in history and in particular the study of the history of art and architecture. He was much influenced by the memory of his grandfather, the classicist and historian, editor of Gibbon, J.B. Bury (1861-1927), whom he very much admired.

His interests were wide-ranging. His earliest important publications were on the colonial architecture and sculpture of Brazil. When living in that country in 1947-48, his imagination had been caught by the buildings of Minas Gerais and the work of O Aleijadinho (1730/381814) in particular. His work on Brazilian subjects excited his interest in Portuguese art and architecture. He turned to the study of Francisco de Holanda (1517-85), the Portuguese artist who visited Rome in 1537/1538 and was held to have been an important channel for communicating knowledge of Italian Renaissance art to Portugal. .

His work on Francisco de Holanda led him to Spain and to Italy. He made contributions to the understanding of the design of the great palace / monastery of El Escorial built for Philip II; he also made original contributions to El Greco studies. He worked on many different aspects of Italian art and architecture, but special mention should be made of his studies on the history of Italian military architecture and the history of Italian gardens. Throughout his life he remained fascinated by the idea of reconstructing the original form of that wonder of the ancient world, the Mausoleum at Halicarnassus.

One of the most significant aspects of John’s scholarly activity was the formation of a considerable private library. He began to buy systematically from around 1964, after he was posted to Zurich by Shell Oil and no longer had access to the London libraries that had supported his research up to that point. He spent large amounts of time visiting and corresponding with booksellers and, from the 1970s onwards when he was resident in London again, he collaborated with some of them by writing short informative accounts of important books they had in stock. He was therefore always very well informed about rare books that were currently on the market. When asked about his own library, he claimed that he was not a bibliophile, but only interested in having close to hand the texts that he needed for his research and writing. In support of this contention, he liked to say that he was always satisfied to have a facsimile of a text, if he could trust its integrity, and did not need to acquire an original. His actual acquisitions give the lie to this claim. For example, he bought fine early editions of literary classics that had little to do with his work. His most important achievement was to assemble original editions of many of the most significant illustrated books on architecture published between the fifteenth and the eighteenth centuries. He also made a remarkable collection of guide books, books on Roman antiquities and books written by visitors to Italy, Spain and Portugal up to about 1850. He donated significant parts of these collections to the library of King’s College, Cambridge, in memory of his grandfather, who had been a fellow of the College.

EMBLEMATA CUM CLAUDII MINOIS COMMENTARIIS [Leiden]: ex off. Plantiniana, Raphelengii, 1608. 8vo., engraved portrait of Alciati and with 210 woodcuts (numbered 211, emblem 62 sharing the same image as 61), contemporary calf, rebacked, paper slightly discoloured throughout, marginal damp staining of the last couple of signatures, USTC 1029006

ALBERTI, LEON BATTISTA

£200‑300

ART & ARCHITECTURE

L’ARCHITETTURA. CON LA AGGIUNTA DE’ DISEGNI Venice: appresso Francesco De Franceschi, 1565. 4to., architectural wood‑engraved title with arms and devices of Cosimo de’ Medici (dedicatee), oval woodcut portrait of author on verso, 82 woodcuts in the text (1 double‑page), historiated woodcut initials, later vellum, edges worn and joints splitting, top of the title page just trimmed, title page a little discoloured and general light paper discolouration throughout, some neat early marginal repairs to first few leaves, some water staining of the last few leaves and the index leaves water stained and with some neat early repairs Note: USTC 808306. First quarto edition of Cosimo Bartoli’s Italian translation. The woodcuts are reversed copies of the folio editions of 1550 and 1565. Alberti’s celebrated ten books on the theory of classical architecture (first published in Latin in 1485) became famous through the vernacular translations of the 16th century. The new dedication to Cosimo de’ Medici explains the need for a further edition due to the great demand for copies of the Florence 1550 folio imprint.

£800‑1,200

3 AMICO, BERNARDINO TRATTATO DELLE PIANTE & IMMAGINI DE SACRI EDIFIZI DI TERRA SANTA Florence: Pietro Cecconcelli, 1620. 2nd edition, folio, with an engraved title page within an architectural border, with 34 engraved plates with 46 (numbered 47) illustrations by Jacques Callot, inconsistent pagination, which sometimes includes the plates, large printer’s device on verso of the last leaf, later vellum, over‑lapping edges, neat repair to the lower outer corner of the title page, inner joints of a number of leaves strengthened, with the book plate of Jean Philibert Peysson de Bacot at the front, and those of John and Michael Bury on the rear pastedown Note: USTC 4004515. The drawings of the Franciscan Bernardino Amico of Gallipoli, Father Guardian of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, working with the rules of perspective introduced a new standard of naturalism and topographical veracity for the sites in the Holy Land. Many of the buildings now lost are described as they were still preserved at the turn of the sixteenth century. Rembrandt owned a copy of this edition and borrowed from it Amico’s rendering of the Temple of Jerusalem as a domed octagonal building. The first edition was printed in Rome in 1609, but this is the first with the plates engraved by Jacques Callot. Jean Philibert Peysson de Bacot was an official in the Cour des Monnaies de Lyon in 1734 and Procureur in 175., He owned a library of some 1750 titled at the time of its sale in 1779.

The first book treats of the siting and laying out of cities with their fortification; the second of building materials; the third outlines the principles of ecclesiastical architecture while the last gives plans for palazz. Cataneo’s work on the design of cities was influential, having been cited by Andrea Palladio and elaborated on by Scamozzi and Vasari.

The book was written to help artists, painters and sculptors, to understand and chose subject matters (see the publisher’s preface, f. 3). It was hugely successful and exerted a lasting and profound influence on mannerist and Baroque artistic and literary concepts.

It went through numerous editions, some illustrated, and as translated into many languages, including English in 1599. The book became the iconographic handbook of painters throughout Europe for the next 250 years.

PALAZZI DIVERSI NEL’ALMA CITA DI ROMA ET ALTRE Rome: ad instanza di Giovanni Battista Rossi, 1638. Oblong folio, 52 engraved plates (including the engraved title page), contemporary limp vellum, early repair to upper inner joint, margins a little dusty, light offsetting of the prints throughout, with the book plates of John and Michael Bury £600‑900

Note: Berlin Katalogue 3602. The original edition of Parasacchi’s collection of engravings is here enlarged by 24 new plates engraved by Felice, except for one of the fountain of the Four Rivers in the Piazza Navona which is engraved

by Pierre Miotte. As this latter fountain was not completed until 1651, this date provides a “terminus post quem” for the printing of this edition. The new plates by Felice are easily distinguished from Parasacchi’s originals, as they are executed in a much more textured style and often include figures engaged in various games and pastimes.

The Contessa Ana Laetitia Pecci‑Blunt (1885‑1971), collector, gallerist, philanthropist and patron of the arts, lived in Paris and Rome and numbered Salvador Dali, Cocteau, Paul Valéry, Francis Poulenc and Paul Claudel amongst her acquaintance. Her collection focused on prints, published works, drawings and paintings thematically focused upon the city of Rome. After her death in 1971, she donated her collection of drawings, watercolours, and paintings to the Museo di Roma, while her collection of prints and published works were sold and dispersed.

Note: Vincenzo Scamozzi (1548 ‑1616) was an Italian architect and a writer on architecture, active mainly in Vicenza and the Republic of Venice area in the second half of the 16th century. He was perhaps the most important figure there between Andrea Palladio, whose unfinished projects he inherited at Palladio’s death in 1580, and Baldassarre Longhena, Scamozzi’s only pupil.

Scamozzi’s influence spread far beyond his Italian commissions through his two‑volume treatise, L’Idea dell’Architettura Universale, which is one of the last works of the Renaissance dealing with the theory of architecture.

LIBER DE UTILITATE MATHEMATICARUM ARTIUM; in quo candide lector multa quidem scitu periucunda, admiratione digna, & humano usui necessaria passim reperies. Venice: apud Domenico Nicolini da Sabbio, 1561. First edition, 8vo., large woodcut printer’s device on the title page, a double‑page woodcut diagram sowing the connections of the many off‑shoots of architecture, contemporary limp vellum, lacking ties, signature F duplicated, foliation jumping from 52 to 57, various inscriptions on the front endpapers, slight staining of the title page and subsequent couple of leaves, with the book plate of John Bury Note: USTC 86161. After a preliminary discourse addressed to Gio. Battista Gremolo, the work is arranged under four main headings: cosmography, architecture, arithmetic and geometry, optics, catoptrics and astrology with sections on music and military geometry. The opening chapter contains a Boethian assertion of the moral purpose of studying arithmetic and the need for those who have just emerged from the study of grammar and from school to turn their minds to reading Euclid. As well as ancient authorities, Unicornus refers to the works of recent writers such as Pico della Mirandola, Alberti, Serlio, Dürer, and others.

33 VREDEMAN DE VRIES, HANS

Note: Berlin Katalogue 3641: USTC 404399 [Galle edition]; The New Hollstein, Dutch and Flemish Etchings, Engravings and Woodcuts 1450‑1700. The Van Doetecum Family Part II: The Antwerp Years 1554‑1575, edited by Ger Luijten and Christian Schuckman, Rotterdam, 1998, nos. 300‑326. Through his various publications, Vredeman de Vries is recognised as the ‘foremost among sixteenth century Netherlandish [architectural] authors [...] an engraver, architect, and painter of prodigious imagination and talent’ (Millard, Northern European Books, p.19).

The British Library describes its copy as having numbered plates whereas the present copy has unnumbered plates. Both the BL and USTC also describing it as 4to. USTC gives the printer as Philip Galle. Galle, who acquired the plates at a later date, does not appear on the present version of the title, and neither it nor the other plates have Latin captions.

The impressions of the 27 plates (title page + 26) that make up the present copy of the Coenotaphiorum appear to be early states, before numbers and before lettered texts were introduced into the lower margins. We have not been able to trace any other examples of a complete set of these early impressions. However, there are three prints in the Ecole des Beaux‑Arts in Paris, described in Hollstein, which evidently match the present set and which could be the surviving remnants of a once‑complete set.

Tiber. In prehistoric times the valley was occupied by the Arno, which then flowed to the Tiber. When a natural dam formed by alluvial deposits diverted the Arno to the northwest, the Chiana drained to the Tiber; but another natural dam at Chiusi prevented proper drainage, and during medieval times the Chiana valley became marshy and malarial. Re‑interest was kindled in the early 18th century in drying to resolve the drainage and hydraulic systems. In 1788 detailed engineering plans made by Vittorio Fossombroni were put into effect, and the work was completed between 1826 and 1838. The watershed was moved southward, and, as a result, the Chiana valley drains partly to the Arno and partly to the Tiber. Almost entirely reclaimed for cultivation, the valley now forms a fertile and productive agricultural region.

Note: USTC 841614. First published in 1542, this guidebook also contains Ulisse Androvandi’s Delle statue antiche.

The arms on the upper cover are the Marital Arms of Sir George Granville Leveson‑Gower, KG, the 1st Duke of Sutherland and Elizabeth Sutherland, the Countess of Sutherland. Sir George was the eldest son of Granville Leveson‑Gower, the 1st Marquess of Stafford and his second wife, Lady Louisa Egerton, the daughter and eventual co‑heiress of Scroop Egerton, the 1st Duke of Bridgwater, whilst Elizabeth was the second and surviving daughter of William Sutherland, the 18th Earl of Sutherland and his wife, Mary Maxwell, the daughter and co‑heiress of William Maxwell, of Preston in the County of Kirkcudbrightshire.

George was appointed a Knight of the Garter when the 2nd Marquess of Stafford on the 22nd March 1805. Given the date of George’s elevation within the peerage and his death we may presume that he commissioned the binding of this book (undoubtedly with others) sometime between January 1833, the month of his creation as the Duke of Sutherland and July 1833 the month of his death. It has not been not possible to identify the particular Christie from the Scottish Book Trade Index.

Ripa returned to Italy in 1723. His journey home saw him presented at the court of George I in London, and on his safe return to Naples in 1724, he sent an album of his Chinese engravings to Caroline, Princess of Wales and gave another set to Lord Burlington. He is often credited with introducing Chinese gardens and patterns to England. At Naples, he founded a college for the education of Chinese converts.

First edition, 8vo., with 7 engraved plates (of which 5 are folding), contemporary sprinkled calf, spine decorated gilt in compartments, later gilt monogram on the covers, partly erased early ownership signature on the title page, with the book plates of John and Michel Bury (3) Note: Totti’s guide shows ancient Rome as it was in Totti’s time and as he thought it had originally been. The views are highly valuable for the historian of Roman topography, and the “restorations” interesting for the reflection of contemporary architecture.

Felibien’s reconstruction of Pliny’s villas through an analysis of the author’s letters foreshadows the rise of Romantic classicism.

Felibien supplies the Latin text with his own translation and copious notes. Felibien also reproduces the description of the Laurentine villa by Scamozzi, who records discrepancies that occur in the Pliny documents. Scamozzi’s text appears in the original Italian with Felibien’s French translation and notes. The work concludes with Felibien’s Dissertation touchant l’architecture antique et l’architrecture gothique.

84 AUBREY, JOHN MISCELLANIES London: A. Bettesworth, et. al., 1721. 2nd edition, 8vo., engraved plate, contemporary panelled calf, rebacked, red morocco lettering piece, slight paper discolouration throughout Note: Aubrey’s Miscellanies is a collection of chapters on hermetic philosophy.The author was fascinated by the occult and supernatural, and ‘Miscellanies’ is a broad‑ranging study, with sections on auspicious and inauspicious dates, omens, communications with angels, and magic, as well as a study of ‘second sight’ (the ability to foresee future events through divine inspiration) that is reputed to be the first treatment of the subject to appear in print.

The chapter on “magic” includes a few short references to witches and witchcraft: notably “Vervain and dill, Hinders witches from their will”, and several stories recounting methods used to hinder witchcraft. The book was first published in 1696. This second edition, revised and enlarged, includes an account of the author’s life.

85 BLUMNAU, GEORG DISSERTATIO DE VACUO QUA, EXPERIENTIIS, & RATIONIBUS PHYSICIS, VACUUM IN NATURA NON DARI, PROBATUR Vilnius: Typis. Acad. Societatis Iesu, 1648. 12mo., with 11 engraved plates of experimental apparatus, contemporary vellum, paper generally a little discoloured throughout, fore‑edge of title page and first couple of leaves frayed, inner joints cracking, lacking the preliminary leaf *6 (possibly a blank), with the book plate of John Bury Note: We have been unable to trace this book in the Lithuanian National Bibliography, the Polish National Library, the University of Vilnius Library, the Jagiellonian University Library, the Bibliografia Esteichera or the USTC. The only reference we have been able to trace to is in the Bibliotheca Stoschiana sive Catalogus selectissimorum librorum quos collegerat Philippus Liber Baro de Stosch, Florence, 1759, where it appears as item no 2052. Information about the author appears equally elusive. He is described on the title page as an alumnus of the Jesuit Academy of Vilnius, a Master of Arts and Philosophy, and of Theology. He may be the same Georgius Blumnau, doctor in theology and pastor at Mehlsack (fl. 1649‑71) in Zeitschrift für die Geschichte und Altertumskunde Ermlands, vol. 15, p.422, but there is no reference to any of his writings. (We are grateful to Dr Sara Trevisan for kindly identifying this.)

Interest in whether Nature truly abhorred a vacuum had been growing in the 17th century following experiments performed in 1640 by Gasparo Berti and by Evangelista Torricelli, a professor in Florence in 1644. Torricelli’s experiment, using tubes filed with mercury and immersed in a mercury reservoir, was the first successful attempt to produce a vacuum and subsequently convinced the scientific community. Berti’s earlier attempt using water was less successful.

Pascal repeated the experiment and, in addition, tried other types of liquid. He found that the maximum height was exactly inversely proportional to the used liquid’s density.

Despite these experiments the discussion between those who maintained no vacuum is possible (plenists) and those who believed that a vacuum was possible (vacuists) continued until Otto von Guericke of Magdeburg’s famous demonstration of 1657 using two hemispheres with a diameter of 40 cm, known as the Magdeburg hemispheres which two teams of eight horses on either side were just barely able to separate after the enclosed volume had been evacuated. (K. Jousten, The history of vacuum science and vacuum technology, pp. 2‑6).

Blumnau’s volume describes various experiments and provides illustrations of the apparatus employed, by which, as he puts it “most learned men in Italy France had dared to doubt.”

His work, such as two others published by the Jesuit Academy at Vilnius, Albert Wijuk Kojalowicz’s Oculus ratione correctus, sux refutatio demonstrations ocularis de Vacuo and Oswald Krüger’s Dissertatio de vacuo, both also published in 1648, were in response to the first publication of Torricelli’s mercury experiment by the Polish Capuchin Friar Valeriano Magni in 1647 and which he claimed as his own. The Jesuit responses to the vacuum experiment were without exception attacks ad hominem on Magni and the Jesuits’ role in the void debate was preoccupied by the Torricellian experiment. Magni’s interpretation of the experiment was radically anti‑Aristotelian. For an account of the confrontation between Aristotelianism which the Jesuits were obliged to teach and the new sciences emerging in the 17th century see M.J. Gorman, “Jesuit explorations of the Torricellian space : carp‑bladders and sulphurous fumes” in Mélanges de l’Ecole française de Rome. Italie et Méditerranée, tome 106, n°1. 1994, pp. 7‑32.

As archbishop of Toledo from 1495 to 1517, Francisco Ximénez de Cisneros campaigned for support for the Mozarabic rite, which had been preserved in the Middle Ages by Christians living in Toledo under Muslim rule. He oversaw a committee that assisted a canon of the cathedral, Alfonso Ortiz, in preparing editions of the Mozarabic missal and breviary that were published in 1500 and 1502, respectively. The resulting rite, which is more accurately termed “neo‑Mozarabic,” gradually became an important component of Spanish national identity. The earliest narrative sources analyzing descriptions of the creation of the neo‑Mozarabic rite are the prefaces to the editions of the Mozarabic missal and breviary, along with 16th and 17th century accounts which include this early seventeenth‑century biography by Eugenio de Robles.

MERCURE GALANT DÉDIÉ A MONSEIGNEUR LE DAUPHIN Paris: Michel Brunet, May 1708. 12mo, pp.413, [7], woodcut arms of the Dauphin on title, 2 folding engraved plates of music, contemporary French red morocco, gilt fillets on sides, large gilt arms on both covers of James Francis Edward Stuart as James III of Great Britain and Ireland, spine gilt in compartments, fleurs‑de‑lys in compartments, headcap with 5mm. split at head of joints, minor discolouration towards foot of covers, faded Jesuit stamp on title, half of small label at top outer corner of inside front cover, modern bookplate of Jacques Laget Note: A Rare Provenance. The Coat of Arms on this binding is one of two styles used by James Francis Edward Stuart, one as Prince of Wales, the other as King: see the University of Toronto, British Armorial Bindings (Online) for examples of both stamps. There is an example of the present stamp in the Blairs College Library in the University of Aberdeen. The BL has only an example of the Prince of Wales stamp. James VIII and III was recognsied

by Louis XIV upon the death of his father in 1701. Early 1708 saw the first attempt at a French‑backed Jacobite rising which fell short even of a landing, so by May 1708 James was recuperating in France, on the eve of his military career in the service of Louis.

Two curious features of this French binding are that in the motto surrounding the arms are the mis‑spelling of ‘pense’ (here ‘pence’) and the introduction of an extra syllable after ‘soit’. Thus here it reads ‘Hony soit il qui mal y pence’.

Some of those books were later sent to Ben Damph .. Booked marked “J.L.” are those belonging to John Locke’s library which do not contain his signature”, red half roan, worn (5) Note: East Horsley Towers in Surrey was purchased by William King, 1st Earl of Lovelace, in 1840, although he did not move in until 1846. William King was a descendant of Peter King, 1st Baron King, (1669‑1734), John Locke’s cousin.

When Locke died in 1704, at the age of 72, he left half his library of over 3,000 books and all his papers and letters, to his cousin, the Lord Chancellor, Peter King. In 1942 the then Earl of Lovelace deposited the manuscripts in the Bodleian Library Oxford, who purchased the collection in 1947. The present library catalogue of East Horsley Towers and the more rudimentary listing of books that appear to have been transferred to Ben Damph, an estate in Torridon, will be of interest to those researching the constituents of Locke’s library.

A LONG RUN OF A RARE PRIVATELY PRODUCED ROSS & CROMARTY “GAZETTE” commencing May 5th 1884‑December 1892, c. 118 numbers, each number comprising from 4‑20pp, folio, lithographed throughout, “Printed by Prutchkin at Torridon in the County of Ross”, c. 600 pages in all, profusely illustrated, the “title‑page” by Marion Coleridge, contemporary half calf Note: A very rare, privately produced, “Gazette”, supposedly printed by “Prutchkin & Co. at Torridon in the County of Ross”, one number with statement “N.B. For Private Circulation only” . The quality of the illustrations, and the length of the contributions, increase over the 9 year period of production. The work is almost certainly that of a member of the Darroch family, resident at Torridon between 1873 and 1910. Many of the stories and pieces of “fashionable intelligence” relate to members of the Darroch family and the indices give the names of numerous contributors, including D. Darroch, C.B. Scott, GT.D. Coleridge, H. Troubridge, R.F. Reynard, M.C. Dixon, D. Maclachlan & others, and illustrations by A.A Sykes, M. Coleridge, C.J. Davidson, & others. The text is often highly amusing, and gives great insights into the life of a cultured family in a remote part of the Highlands in the 1880’s and 90’s. The only reference found onloine to the “Gladiator” is of a single number discovered in a time capsule found in 2015 hidden in the wall of Coire Church, Torridon.

Provenance: Torridon House, Earls of Lovelace; signature to front endpaper of Alasdair R. Darroch. Torridon House was built by Duncan Darroch, Baron of Gourock who bought the Torridon estate in 1873, and died in 1910 at Torridon House.

MACDIARMID, HUGH [CHRISTOPHER MURRAY GRIEVE]

MACLEAN, ALISTAIR, 12 FIRST EDITIONS,

A DRUNK MAN LOOKS AT THE THISTLE Edinburgh & London: William Blackwood & Sons, 1926. First edition in first state binding, 8vo, dust‑jacket, inscribed by the author “To / Estella Starkey, with every good / wish, / from / Hugh M’Diarmid / 13.8.28”, the original cloth with ruled border in blind, gilt lettering above and below a gilt Celtic vignette, dust‑jacket with spine and edges somewhat discoloured, a few small chips and slight splitting along dust‑jacket joints

INCLUDING Night without End. 1960; When Eight Bells Toll, 1966; Where Eagles Dare. 1967; Bear Island. 1971; The Way to Dusty Death.

1973; Breakhart Press. 1974; The Golden Gate. 1976; Athabasca.

1980; River of Death. 1981; Partisans. 1982; Floodgate, 1983; San Andreas. 1984; first editions, dustwrappers, none price clipped (12)

Provenance: Inscribed by Hugh MacDiarmid to “Estella Starkey” (née Estella Francis Solomons, 1882‑1968), one of the leading Irish artists of her generation and wife of Irish poet and editor, Seamus O’Sullivan (née James Sullivan Starkey, 1879‑1958); subsequently inscribed by the book’s dedicatee, Scottish composer Francis George Scott, in September 1933 during a trip to Ireland. MacDiarmid stated that he could not have completed the work without Scott’s help. Scott also took an important part in the Scottish Literary Renaissance.

Note: A Drunk Man Looks at the Thistle is generally regarded as MacDiarmid’s most famous and influential work: the Scottish Ulysses? The present author and dedicatee inscribed copy with the rare dust‑jacket stands, also, as a witness to the attempts at cooperation within the resurgent Celtic world. This makes it an important copy of the most important work from one of the principal forces behind the Scottish Renaissance: inscribed to a Jewish female artist and Irish nationalist, whose life was lived at the very centre of the vibrant Irish literary world of the first part of the 20th century.

MacDiarmid attended the August 1928 Tailteann Games, in Dublin, at the invitation of Oliver Gogarty (with whom he stayed) and, during his visit, he met many of the Irish literary giants of the time, including Estella’s husband, Seamus O’Sullivan. Seamus was a difficult and abrasive friend to most of the leading literary figures in Dublin, including W.B. Yeats, James Stephens and George William Russell ‘AE’. The O’Sullivans’ “at homes” on Sunday afternoons were a central feature of Dublin literary life, as were Russel’s Sunday evenings and Yeats’s Monday evenings. It is a possibility (if not a probability) that it was at one of these gatherings that MacDiarmid inscribed the present work.

See MacDiarmid’s The Company I’ve Kept, p.192, for a reference to his friendship with Estella Solomons.

293 DICKENS, CHARLES AUTOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED TO W[ILLIAM] H[ILLS] WILLS sending by special request his autograph that Wills requires for his friend, with autograph self portrait at head of page, 1 Devonshire Terrace, York Gate, Regents Park London, May 21st 1840, 222 x 174mm., stuck down on board, dampstained at head, base and fore‑margin, paper slightly discoloured Note: The miscellaneous writer William Henry Wills (1810‑1880), contributed to various periodical publications and was one of the original literary staff of ‘Punch’ from 1841. Wills served as Dickens’s secretary during Dickens’s establishment of the ‘Daily News’; he was engaged by Dickens as a member of the staff and remained on the staff under Forster’s editorship, after Dickens’s resignation as editor. It was Forster who suggested to the engagement of Wills as assistant editor of ‘Household Words’. His business capacity was invaluable to Dickens, and he was one of the most intimate friends of the novelist in later life.

Apparently not published: not in “The Letters of Charles Dickens, The Pilgrim Edition”, volume 2, 1840‑41., edited by M. Housoe and G. Storey, 1969.

Provenance: Private vendor, Great Missenden. The vendor’s great grandmother lived as a child close to Dickens when he lived at Gad’s Hill Place in Rochester, Kent. According to family memory the great grandmother as a young girl used to have tea with Dickens in his prefabricated two‑storey Swiss chalet that Fechter had given him as a Christmas present in 1864. Dickens had it assembled on land he owned on the opposite side of the Rochester High Road, and later had a brick‑lined tunnel dug between the house’s front lawn and the chalet.

AUTOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED, apologising for not replying sooner to the Committee of Ladies for relief of the Irish peasantry “he has it not in his power to be useful to them on the present occasion. Upon the first breaking out of the general distress in Ireland as much was done in the behalf of the sufferers in Scotland as could be expected in a country at present suffering greatly from unpaid rent, and a general depreciation of agricultural produce. It appears to Sir Walter Scott that although sudden and immediate distress wherever it occurs ought to be the subject of general sympathy & benevolence yet when that distress is protracted it becomes the duty of the local government where it occurs to provide in a permanent manner against so unfortunate an evil since moreover that evil must become progressive & universal. Sir Walter Scott without knowing much of the state of Ireland otherwise than from what is found in everyones observation cannot but apprehend that that fine Kingdom is in a situation where the combined & continued efforts of the legislature and Landholder can alone offer any effectual relief to the suffering peasantry, & that their condition may perhaps rather increase those relieved by the precious donations afforded by the sympathy of the sister countries.”, Castle Street, Edinburgh, 25 August ‑, 2 pp, 4to, integral blank

Note: A very interesting letter reflecting Scott’s views on where private charitable duty should give way to governmental responsibility.

I have quite a fancy towards foliage & fruit myself but am perforce relegated to a diet largely composed of “Bottled beer & chops”.

The vegeterian system appeals to me from the aesthetic side‑there is something seductive (almost wicked) in the subtle green of cabbage, the sanguine cheeks of the tomato are very suggestive & highly decorative & the beauty of a flayed pumpkin is matchless‑greater than Burne‑Jones at his best”, & referring to Max Beerhohm, Charles Lamb & G.B.

Salvin” and “W. Salvin, May 15, 1839”; 4 of plants, from 75 x 105mm. to 175 x 105mm., annotated on versos in pencil “April 1839, W. Salvin”, “May 1839. W. Salvin” (x 2) “[?] from High [‑]oile, Salvin, 1829”, one of the armorial bookplate of W.T Salvin Esq., annotated “May 16th 1839, W. Salvin”, & 3 totally faded; all somewhat faded, one creased Note: These must be amongst the earliest “photogenic drawings” produced in Co. Durham. First conceived in England by William Henry Fox Talbot in 1834, photogenic drawing is the first photographic process capable of producing negative images on paper. The inventor did not publicize his experiments until the Daguerreotype was introduced in January 1839. The first photogenic drawings were produced of flat objects (plants, fabrics, drawings or manuscripts, etc.), being placed directly on light sensitive paper, following the principle of a photogram. Talbot had presented his discoveries of photogenic drawing to the Royal Society in January and February 1839, and it is therefore likely that William Thomas Salvin (1767‑1842) or his son, also William Thomas Salvin (b. 1808) was present at Talbot’s Royal Society lecture and was inspired by it to make some of his own photogenic drawings in May 1939.

The complex was built following the reccommendation of engineer, Charles Redvers Westlake, however the location had been considered significant since John Hanning Speke suggested that Ripon Falls, at the Northern end of Lake Victoria, was the source of the Nile. The construction of the dam effectively extended Lake Victoria and submerged the hitherto famous Ripon Falls. Gibb’s photographs show the construction of the dam, including aerial shots, alongside images of the Queen speaking at her lectern, the Queen and Prince Philip walking past dignitaries and giving speeches.

Folio, first facsimile edition taken from the copy in the Gotha State Library, dated 1540, publisher’s brown morocco gilt; with Diedrich Wattenberg’s accompanying volume, both contained in slipcase Note: This is an unusual, if not unique, facsimile copy of the Astronomicum Caesareum. About the facsimile of the work, Owen Gingerich writes: “Although their facsimile is a triumph of modern printing technology, the reproduction as issued is by no means a precision instrument. The reason is simple: the volvelles have been put down without insight into the subtlety of Apianus’s original design...there are even more conspicuous errors in the facsimile. The assembly of disks found in folio C of the facsimile belongs on F11...” [Owen Gingerich. Apianus’s Astronomicum Caesareum and its Leipzig Facsimile in Journal for the History of Astronomy, 1971]. With this in mind, this copy of the facsimile has been somewhat ‘corrected’ in order to properly situate the volvelles.

His main passion was however motor Racing, his wife, Doris also had a great interest and supported him in his racing and even helping build his racing cars. They were heavily involved over the years in Motor sport and now with her passing, they would like to know their books will give others as much pleasure in the future as they have to them over the years.

His car of choice was Lotus. He was one of the first to build a Lotus Eleven and race it at Charterhall and other circuits. He went on to build a Lotus 18 and 22. He knew Jim Clark and others of a similar period in Racing. He was instrumental with others in forming and seeing the racing circuit built at Ingliston in the mid-sixties. He was also heavily involved in The Scottish Motor Racing Club and assisted organising race meetings. He also increased the profile of the club and motor racing in general that in turn saw it develop into a strong financial ‘business’ He was Chairman of the SMRC for two years and latterly Hon. Vice president of the SMRC and a member of the BRDC.

424 [COOK, CAPT. JAMES] AN ABRIDGEMENT OF A JOURNAL OF THE ADVENTURES VOYAGE ROUND THE GLOBE Manuscript, folio (391 x 255mm.), 3pp., in a neat copper plate hand, written largely in the first person plural, providing an overview of the voyage of the Adventure, under the command of Capt. Tobias Furneaux, with small inset “Circumpolar Chart of the South Pole with the Adventures track round the Globe” on third page, undated & unattributed, small split at fold, small tear at inner margin touching a few letters but without loss, on laid paper watermarked with a capital “H” and “D” Note: The Adventure was the companion ship under the command of Capt. Tobias Furneaux, which accompanied Capt. James Cook, on the Resolution on his second voyage to the South Pacific in 1772‑1775. The two ships crossed the Antarctic circle in January 1773 and became separated in heavy fog, following which the Adventure sailed along the southern and eastern coasts of Van Diemen’s Land before reuniting with the Resolution at Queen Charlotte Sound in New Zealand. The ships explored the Society and Friendly Islands before they again became separated in October 1773 near Cook Strait in a gale. Nine of Furneaux’s men were murdered by Maoris at Queen Charlotte Sound, an episode which is related in this abridgement.

The account is largely in the first person plural, implying that the author may have been on the expedition, but the account occasionally lapses into the third person plural: “in the adjoining Coves to where the Boat was sent they saw a canoe paddling in shore.... we rowed in after them.” Where Furneaux’s account reads “we saw about 20 baskets, tied up, and a dog eating a piece of broiled flesh which, upon examining we suspected to be human”, the present account reads “The lieutenant and some of the people went on shore to the fire and found five heads lying on it and five entrails lying about it”.

A pencilled note at the head of page 1 reads “p.134, volume 1” but the text of the present manuscript does not appear to tally with page 134, volume 1, of any of the editions of Cook’s voyages consulted.

The manuscript is accompanied by a 20th century typescript of the text.

120 Lyon & Turnbull

Conditions of Sale CONDITIONS OF SALE FOR BUYERS (UK) The Auctioneer 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 of Sale (Buyers): “Auctioneer” means Lyon and Turnbull Ltd (Registered in Scotland No: 191166 | Registered address: 33 Broughton Place, Edinburgh, EH1 3RR) or its authorised auctioneer, as appropriate; “Hammer price” means the level of bidding reached (at or above any reserve) when the Auctioneer brings down the hammer; “High Cumulative Value of Lot” means several lots with a total lower estimate value of £30,000 or above; “High Value Lot” means a lot with a lower estimate of £30,000 or above; “Lot” means each Item offered for sale

by Lyon and Turnbull; “Purchase Price” is the Hammer Price and applicable Buyer’s Premium; “Reserve” means the lowest price below which an item cannot be sold; “Total amount due” means the hammer price in respect of the lot sold together with any premium, Value Added Tax or other taxes chargeable and any additional charges payable by a defaulting Buyer under these Conditions; “You”, “Your” means the Buyer; “Us”, “Our”, “We” etc. refers to Lyon and Turnbull Ltd, The singular includes the plural and vice versa as appropriate.

2. AGENCY We act as agent solely for and in the interests of the Seller. We do not act for Buyers in this role and do not give advice to Buyers. When we make a statement about a lot it is doing so on behalf of the Seller of the lot.

The Auctioneer normally acts as agent only and disclaims any responsibility for default by Sellers or Buyers.

3. BIDDING PROCEDURES AND THE BUYER (a) Bidders are required to register their particulars before bidding and to satisfy any security and credit references or arrangements before entering the auction room to view or bid; (b) High Value Lots and High Cumulative Value of Lots: If you wish to bid on any High Value Lot (a lot with a lower estimate of £30,000 or above) or if you are bidding on several lots with a total lower estimate value of £30,000 or above, you are invited to complete the High Value Lot pre-registration. After you have successfully registered as a bidder with us, you should complete the High Value Lot pre-registration before the date of sale by contacting the Office Manager or on the date of sale at the

registration area. Unless otherwise agreed by us, you will be permitted to bid for High Value Lots only if we have confirmed your payment of deposit and your completion of the High Value Lot pre-registration before the sale. The Deposit required will be 10% of the lower estimate.

Upon pre-registration, you should pay the deposit or such other sum as determined by us dependant on circumstances, by way of bank transfer or credit card(s) acceptable to us.

Please note that we do not accept payment from third parties and this also applies to agents.

If you are not successful in any bid and do not owe us any debt, the deposit will be refunded to you by way of wire transfer or such other methods as determined by us. Please make sure that you provide your bank details in the pre-registration form. The exchange rate provided to us by the bank on the date of exchange is final.

We will arrange to refund the deposit to you within seven days after the date of sale, however we do not guarantee when you will receive the payment due to the variance in time for banks to process fund transfers.

Upon successful pre-registration, you will be given a numbered High Value Lot paddle for identification purposes. The auctioneer will usually only accept bids made with the High Value Lot paddle or by its High Value Lot registered bidder. This applies to saleroom, telephone and absentee bids.

We have the right to change the High Value Lot pre-registration procedures and requirements from time to time without notice. (c) The maker of the highest bid accepted by the Auctioneer conducting the sale shall be the Buyer and any dispute shall be settled at the Auctioneer’s absolute discretion. (d) Our right to bid on behalf of Sellers is expressly reserved up to the amount of any reserve. (e) The right to refuse any bid is also reserved. (f) 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 nor our employees nor 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. (g) Telephone Bids: If a prospective Buyer makes arrangements with us prior to the commencement of the sale we will use reasonable efforts to contact them to enable them to participate in bidding by telephone.

We do not accept liability for failure

to do so or for errors and omissions in connections. (h) Online Bidding: We will use reasonable efforts to carry out online bids and do not accept liability for equipment failure, inability to access the internet or software malfunctions related to execution of online bids/ live bidding.

4. INCREMENTS Bidding increments shall be at the Auctioneer’s sole discretion.

5. THE PURCHASE PRICE For each lot purchased a Buyer’s Premium of 25% of the hammer price of each lot up to and including £100,000, plus 20% from £100,001 thereafter. VAT at the appropriate rate is charged on the Buyer’s Premium.

No VAT is payable on the hammer price or premium for printed books or unframed maps bought at auction.

Live online bidding may be subject to an additional premium (level dependent on the live bidding service provider chosen). This additional premium is subject to VAT at the appropriate rate as above.

6. RESERVES Unless indicated by a insert symbol (∆ ), all lots in this catalogue are offered subject to a reserve. A reserve is the confidential hammer price established between us and the seller. The reserve is generally set at a percentage of the low estimate and will not exceed the low estimate for the lot.

7. VALUE ADDED TAX Value Added Tax is charged at the appropriate rate prevailing by law at the date of sale and is payable by Buyers of relevant lots.

(1) Lots affixed with (†): Value Added Tax on the hammer price is imposed by law on all items affixed with a dagger (†). This imposition of VAT maybe because the Seller is registered for VAT within the European Union and is not operating under a Margin Scheme.

(2) Lots affixed with (*): A reduced rate of Value Added Tax on the hammer price of 5% is payable. This indicates that a lot has been imported from outwith the European Union. This reduced rate is applicable to Antique items.

(3) Lots affixed with [Ω]: Standard rate of Value Added Tax on the hammer price and premium is payable. This applies to items that have been imported from outwith the European Union and do not fall within the reduced rate category outlined above.

8. 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 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.

9. PAYMENT (1) Within 7 days of a lot being sold you will: (a) Pay to us the total amount due in cash or by such other method as is agreed by us. We accept cash, bank transfer (details on request), debit cards and Visa or MasterCard credit cards. (b) Please note that we do not accept cash payments over £5,000.

(2) Any payments by you to us may be applied by us towards any sums owing by you to us howsoever incurred and without agreement by you or your agent, whether express or implied.

10. T ITLE 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 7 working days following the day of the auction or upon the clearance of any cheque used for payment whichever is later. We can provide you with a list of shippers. However, we will not be responsible for the acts or omissions of carriers or packers whether or not recommended by us.

(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 sale room and the potential storage charges for lots not collected by the appropriate time.

(5) Export of goods: Buyers intending to export goods should ascertain (a) whether an export licence is required and (b) whether there is any specific prohibition on importing goods of that character, e.g. items that may contain prohibited materials such as ivory or rhino horn. It is the buyer’s sole responsibility to obtain any relevant export or import licence. The denial of any licence or any delay in obtaining licences shall neither justify the recession of any sale not any delay in making full payment for the lot.

Conditions of Sale 121

11. REMEDIES FOR NON-PAYMENT OR FAILURE TO COLLECT PURCHASES (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 Sellers 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: (a) to proceed against you for damages for breach of contract; (b) to rescind the contract for sale of that lot and/or any other lots sold by us to you; (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). (d) to remove, store and insure the lot in the case of storage, either at our premises or elsewhere and to recover from you all costs incurred in respect thereof; (e) to charge interest at a rate not exceeding 1.5% per month above the current base rate on all sums outstanding for more than 7 working days after the sale; (f) to retain that or any other lot sold to you until you pay the total amount due; (g) to reject or ignore bids from you or 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 which become due to you towards the settlement of the total amount due by you and to exercise a lien over any of your property in our possession for any purpose until the debt due is satisfied.

12. DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITION (1) Whilst 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. Prospective Buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably held and only accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we the auctioneer or our employees or agents accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and no warranties, whether relating to description, condition or quality of lots, express, implied or statutory, are given. Please note that photographs/images provided may not

be fully representative of the condition of the lot and should not be relied upon as indicative of the overall condition of the lot.

(2) Condition reports: Condition reports are provided on our website or upon request. The absence of a report does not imply that a lot is without imperfections. Large numbers of such requests are received shortly before each sale and department specialists and administration will endeavour to respond to all requests although we offer no guarantee. Any statement in relation to the lot is merely an expression of opinion of the Seller or us and should not be relied upon as an inducement to bid on the lot. Lots are available for inspection prior to the sale and you are strongly advised to examine any lot in which you are interested prior to the sale. Our condition reports are not prepared by professional conservators, restorers or engineers. Our condition report does not form any contract between us and the Buyer. The condition reports do not affect the Buyer’s obligations in any way.

(3) Estimates: Estimates are placed on each lot to help Buyers gauge the sums involved for the purchase of a particular lot. Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT. Estimates are a matter of opinion and prepared in advance. Estimates may be subject to change and are for guidance only and should not be relied upon.

(4) Catalogue Alterations: Lot descriptions and estimates are prepared in advance of the sale and may be subject to change. Any alterations will be announced on the catalogue alteration sheet, made available prior to the sale. It is the responsibility of the Buyer to make themselves aware to any alterations which may have occurred.

(5) Electrical Goods: are sold as “works of art” only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations by a qualified electrician first. Use of such goods is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no warranties as to safety of the goods are given.

(6) Upholstered items: are sold as “works of art” only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations (items manufactured prior to 1950 are exempt from any regulations). Use of such goods is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no warranties as to safety of the goods are given. We provide no guarantee as to the originality of any wood/material contained within the item.

(7) Wine: may only be sold to persons aged of 18 years and over. By registering to bid, you affirm that you are at least that age. On collection, you must provide positive proof of age should this be requested. Buyers of wines must make appropriate allowances for natural variations of ullages, conditions of corks and wine.

We can provide no guarantees as to how the wine may have been stored.

There is always a risk of cork failure and allowance by the buyer must be made. Wine is sold “as is” and quality of the wine is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no warranties are given.

(8) Special terms may be used in catalogue descriptions of particular classes of items (Books, Jewellery, Paintings, Guns, Firearms, etc.) in which case the descriptions must be interpreted in accordance with any glossary appearing in the catalogue.

These notices and terms will also form part of our terms and conditions of sales.

13. BOOKS, CLOCKS & WATCHES (1) Books-Collation: If on collation any named item in the sale catalogue proves defective, in text or illustration the Buyer may reject the lot provided he returns it within 21 days of the sale stating the defect in writing.

This, however, shall not apply in the case of unnamed items, periodicals, autographed letters, music M.M.S., maps, drawings nor in respect of damage to bindings, stains, foxing, marginal worm holes or other defects not affecting the completeness of the text nor in respect of Defects mentioned in the catalogue, or at the time of sale, nor in respect of lots sold for less than £300.

(2) Clocks & Watches: All lots are sold “as seen”, and the absence of any reference to the condition of a clock or watch does not imply the lot is in good condition and without defects, repairs or restorations. Most clocks and watches will have been repaired during their normal lifetime and may now incorporate additional/ newer parts. Furthermore, we make no representation or warranty that any clock or watch is in working order. As clocks and watches often contain fine and complex mechanisms, Buyers should be aware that a general service, change of battery or further repair work, for which the Buyer is solely responsible, may be necessary.

Buyers should also be aware that we cannot guarantee a watch will remain waterproof if the back is removed.

Buyers should be aware that the importing watches such as Rolex, Frank Muller and Corum into the United States is highly restricted. These watches cannot be shipped to the USA and only imported personally.

14. CITES Please be aware that all lots marked with the symbol Y may be subject to CITES regulations when exporting these items outside the EU. These regulations may be found at http:// www.defra.gov.uk/ahvla-en/importsexports/cites We accept no liability for any lots which may be subject to CITES but have not be identified as such.

15. SALE BY PRIVATE TREATY (a) The same Conditions of Sale (Buyers) shall apply to sales by private treaty.

(b) Private treaty sales made under these Conditions are deemed to be sales by auction and subject to our agreed charges for Sellers and Buyers. (c) We undertake to inform the Seller of any offers it receives in relation to an item prior to any Proposed Sale, excluding the normal method of commission bids. (d) For the purposes of a private treaty sale, if a lot is sold in any other currency than Sterling, the exchange rate is to be taken on the date of sale.

16. 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, safety and security arrangements. Accordingly, neither the Auctioneer nor our employees or agents shall incur liability for death or personal injury or similarly for the safety of the property of persons visiting prior to, during or after a sale.

AUTHENTICITY GUARANTEE We guarantee that the authorship, period, or origin (collectively, “Authorship”) of each lot in this catalogue is as stated in the BOLD or CAPITALISED type heading in the catalogue description of the lot, as amended by oral or written saleroom notes or announcements. We make no warranties whatsoever, whether express or implied, with respect to any material in the catalogue other than that appearing in the Bold or Capitalised heading and subject to the exclusions below.

In the event Lyon and Turnbull in its reasonable opinion deems that the conditions of the authenticity guarantee have been satisfied, it shall refund to the original purchaser of the lot the hammer price and applicable

122 Lyon & Turnbull

Buyer’s Premium paid for the lot by the original purchaser.

This Guarantee does not apply if: (i) the catalogue description was in accordance with the opinion(s) of generally accepted scholar(s) and expert(s) at the date of the sale, or the catalogue description indicated that there was a conflict of such opinions; or (ii) the only method of establishing that the Authorship was not as described in the Bold or Capitalised heading at the date of the sale would have been by means or processes not then generally available or accepted; unreasonably expensive or impractical to use; or likely (in our reasonable opinion) to have caused damage to the lot or likely to have caused loss of value to the lot; or (iii) there has been no material loss in value of the lot from its value had it been in accordance with its description in the Bold or Capitalised type heading.

This Guarantee is provided for a period of one year from the date of the relevant auction, is solely for the benefit of the original purchaser of the lot at the auction and may not be transferred to any third party. To be able to claim under this Authenticity Guarantee, the original purchaser of the lot must: (i) notify us in writing within one month of receiving any information that causes the original purchaser of record to dispute the accuracy of the Bold or Capitalised type heading, specifying the lot number, date of the auction at which it was purchased and the reasons for such dispute; and (ii) return the Lot to our registered office in the same condition as at the date of sale to the original purchaser of record and be able to transfer good title to the Lot, free from any third party claims arising after the date of such sale.

We have discretion to waive any of the above requirements. We may require the original purchaser of the lot to obtain, at the original purchaser of lot’s cost, the reports of two independent and recognised experts in the field. The reports must be mutually acceptable to us and the original purchaser of the lot. We shall not be bound by any reports produced by the original purchaser of the lot, and reserves the right to seek additional expert advice at its own expense. It is specifically understood and agreed that the rescission of a sale and the refund of the original purchase price paid (the successful hammer price, plus the buyer’s premium) is exclusive and in lieu of any other remedy which might otherwise be available as a matter of law. Lyon and Turnbull and the Seller shall not be liable for any incidental or consequential damages incurred or claimed, including without limitation, loss of profits or interest.
