53 ROWLING, J.K. - HARRY POTTER AND THE PHILOSOPHER’S STONE THE FIRST EDITION, FIRST IMPRESSION OF THE WORK, ONE OF ONLY 500 COPIES PRINTED London: Bloomsbury, 1997. First edition, first impression, with the 10-1 numberline on the publisher’s imprint page, hardcover, 8vo, original publisher’s pictorial laminated boards, library circulation label indicating withdrawal, laminated barcode to front free endpaper and neat label pasted to publication page, some restoration work, very slight browning and slight soiling internally including a couple of small ink marks to first page, star stamp to upper edge Note: Few books have inspired the imaginations of a generation of children like J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series. The franchise has now expanded to encompass eight Harry Potter films, two Fantastic Beasts films, a sell-out stage play, three theme parks and a studio tour. As of 2016, the Harry Potter industry was estimated to be worth $25 billion. It is therefore very poignant to encounter the point at which all this began: J.K. Rowling’s first Harry Potter book was published in London, by Bloomsbury, in 1997. Unsure of its success, the publishers issued only 500 copies of the first edition, first impression in hardback.

53

The book is the jewel in a Harry Potter collector’s crown. This copy, being one of the 500 first impression hardbacks produced, has the numberline reading 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 on the publisher’s imprint page, the publisher is listed as Bloomsbury, the error of ‘1 wand’ is listed twice in Harry’s school equipment list and ‘Philosopher’ is misspelt ‘Philospher’ on the lower cover. It is an exceptionally rare book to find.

Wendy Cooling’s review on the upper cover states: “A terrific read and a stunning first novel”, another key issue point of the first edition, first impression.

The book is indeed a story that has captured the hearts of generations around the world, with this copy representing the birth of a true classic.

Rey, 1751 -1780. First edition, 35 volumes, including Supplements and Index volumes (i.e. 17 text volumes; 11 plate volumes; 2 tables volumes & 5 supplement volumes including supplement plates), folio, engraved frontispiece, engraved plates, contemporary mottled calf gilt, red morocco gilt labels and gilt tooling to spines, a little rubbing to some volumes, and a little wear and occasional slight cracking to joints, a few spine labels faded, a few pages slightly creased in places, ink library number to volume 1 half-title and to volume 3 of the supplement, occasional light foxing and light browning to some leaves (35) Note: A “bible of “enlightenment”” according to Denis Diderot’s biographer, P.N. Furbank, the Encyclopédie, ou Dictionnaire Raisonné des Sciences, des Arts et des Metiers was first published in 1751. It had been advertised the previous year in a prospectus, promising a 10 volume set (comprising 8 text volumes and 2 plate volumes), with a subscription cost of 280 livres (£14) - or 25 livres per volume for those not willing or able to subscribe to the complete series. The final number of subscriptions totalled an impressive 4000, with an additional 25 volumes, including supplements, being added to the anticipated 10 by 1780.

The Encyclopédie was originally conceived of by the publisher, André le Breton, as a simple translation of Chambers Cyclopaedia from English into French. Denis Diderot, as editor, alongside the mathematician, Jean Le Rond d’Alembert, pushed the work far beyond this and placed the Encyclopédie clearly in the enlightenment tradition of Bacon, Descartes, Newton and Locke. A vast number of 18th century writers contributed to the work and Diderot, as editor, would take their writings and subtly remodel and expand them, aligning them to his own world view. The subscribers - a wealthy collection of people bearing in mind a reasonable salary in the 1750s sat at around £7 - were thus exposed to the notions of religious tolerance and government for the benefit of the masses, woven throughout the text.

the established church, with its focus on rationalism and science. The work’s attitude towards history is more cursory, placing this in “Arts of Memory”, and there is a complete absence of biographical articles, unless nestled amongst the description of a location.

Furbank writes: “D’Alembert... would say that he and his co-editor had purposely included not the genealogies of great families, but the genealogies of sciences...” Indeed, even after formal suppression of the work by the state in 1759, Diderot managed to continue the surreptitious production of this key work of enlightenment thinking.

Hahn was forced to leave Germany in 1933 following his public criticism of Hitler, asking the students in his school to choose between the school and Hitler and facing a brief period of imprisonment. Hahn believed that adolescents were innately good and reasonable, but could become corrupted by society. His educational philosophy was designed to prevent this corruption, by giving young people responsibilities, especially in leadership, and focussing on outdoor adventure.

Note: The Edinburgh International Writers’ Conference became famous - or perhaps infamous - for some of the discussions and gambits which arose from several of the speakers. The line-up included Norman Mailer, Henry Miller, Mary McCarthy, and William Burroughs, Scots Hugh MacDiarmid, Muriel Spark, Edwin Morgan and Alexander Trocchi, English Lawrence Durrell and Stephen Spender, Erich Fried, and Khushwant Singh. The organiser, publisher John Calder, told the press: “we are imposing no prohibitions on the free expression of opinion, however controversial or unusual” and the conference correspondingly involved frank discussions surrounding sexuality, politics, Scottish national identity and drug-taking.

Transcripts of the conference are surprisingly unusual to find.

Note: Lettice Barbara Hay Shaw lived from 18871904, passing away aged 17 and leaving behind a remarkable amount of writings.

XIX, [n.d.]. 8vo, original wrappers, inscribed: “For Muriel and Derek in sincere friendship, Christine”; [AND] A quantity of books from the library of Derek Stanford, the majority with his annotations and manuscript notes Note: Derek Stanford (1918-2008) collaborated with Muriel Spark on several books during the 1950s, their work tending to focus on the Romantic Poets. Spark introduced Stanford to the talent of Dylan Thomas and Stanford subsequently wrote a book on the poet. The two are also said to have been lovers, having met through the Poetry Society: Stanford organised a protest reading when Spark was ousted from the Society, however when Stanford published his book: “Muriel Spark: A Biographical and Critical Study”, Spark’s reaction was frosty, writing: “If Mr Stanford had applied to me, I would have advised against this undertaking.” The four works inscribed by Muriel Spark, here, date from the 1950s, with the inscriptions conveying love and affection. Several other works in the lot are presented to Derek Stanford by their authors, whilst the remaining books form an exceptional archive of reference works annotated by Stanford.

214 WILDE, OSCAR - WITH MANUSCRIPT ANNOTATIONS BY ARTHUR WILLIAM SYMONS DE PROFUNDIS London: Methuen and Co., 1905.

(from Robert Ross)” [the inscription does not appear to be in Ross’s hand], with many annotations and corrections to the text in pencil, and 15 leaves of additional notes in the same hand bound-in

£200-300

212 WELLS, H.G.

Note: Robert Baldwin Ross (1859-1918) was the partner, lifelong friend and literary executor of Oscar Wilde. De Profundis was a letter, written

by Wilde to another former partner, Lord Alfred Douglas (‘Bosie’ - with whom Wilde’s relationship famously led to his conviction and imprisonment for ‘gross indecency’), as a form of catharsis and was never sent during Wilde’s incarceration. Following his release from prison, Wilde entrusted the manuscript to Ross. In 1900, several years after Wilde’s death, Ross published the letter in its present form. This volume appears to have belonged to Ross - and subsequently seems to have been gifted to the poet, critic and magazine editor, Arthur William Symons. Symons has added manuscript text extracts which were suppressed from this edition and published in 1913.

The British Government had undertaken to subsidise the cost of 7 pastors and 7 schoolmasters from the Vaudois who settled in Germany.

234 METZ, FRANCE. DOCUMENT CONCERNING PAYMENTS TO A GARRISON, IN FRENCH DATED AT METZ, 17 APRIL 1586

single sheet, 402 x 357mm, vellum, 37 lines in brown ink in a fine documentary hand, signed at the bottom edge by Roger de Comminges, Lord of Saubole, Regnault de Rene and Richard Landon, docket with 16th century inscription, creases, light soiling to edges, a few small stains Note: “Roolle de la monstre et Reveue faicte en la ville de Metz le dix septiesme jour d’apuril mil cinq cents quatre vingts six d’une compagnie de cinquante hommes de guerre, harquebusiers a cheval estant pour le service du Roy en garnison en la y ville de Metz soubs la charge du cappitaine Saubolle, leur cappitaine par nous Regnault de Rene, commissaire extraordinaire des guerres …”, granted by Germain Le Charron, treasurer of the King.

The Imperial Free City of Metz was one of three bishoprics in Lorraine long claimed by the kings of France.

In January 1552, Henry II of Valois demanded it as the price of his alliance with the German princes against the Emperor Charles V. Metz was occupied by the French in April 1552 and the Duke of Guise, François I de Lorraine, was appointed governor. By the summer, Charles V raised an army to put the German princes revolt down and recapture Metz. The siege began in earnest on 31 October and the Emperor himself arrived on 20 November. However, the city was strongly held, so that by the end of the year, it was clear that the siege had failed. It was lifted on January 1553. Charles V made another attempt to retake the bishopric one year later, but this also ended in failure. As a result the bishopric remained in French hands and was officially ceded to France at the end of the Thirty Years War. Metz was one of the most important fortified towns of the sixteenth century, being the main stronghold on the French eastern borders. In 1583, the King, Henry III appointed the Duke of Epernon as Governnor. In 1586 his cousin Roger de Comminges Sauboler was also appointed captain, leading an army of fifty men-at-arms.

Shortly after the publication of May Day, Sommerfield volunteered for the International Brigades and fought in the Spanish Civil War alongside his friend John Cornford. After returning he discovered that he had been reported dead.

During World War II he served as an aircraft support mechanic in Burma and India. This wartime service in Asia with the RAF provided the inspiration for some of his best short stories, collected after the war as The Survivors (1947).

In 1937 Sommerfield published Volunteer in Spain, which was an account of his time in Spain.

George Orwell called the memoir a “piece of sentimental tripe”, while others praised it and called Sommerfield “an excellent writer”. The book was dedicated to Cornford, who was killed in Spain in December 1936. The poet and novelist Malcolm Lowry, a close friend of Sommerfield’s, counted him as an important influence, and dedicated his poem Song About Madrid, Useful Any Time to him and Julian Bell.

Perhaps the most widely read of Sommerfield’s works was Trouble in Porter Street, published in 1939. The Communist Party asked Sommerfield to write a manual about how to organise a rent strike.

He wrote a short story for this purpose instead which was published cheaply as a pamphlet and sold in tens of thousands. Sommerfield was also active in the Mass Observation project and took the lead in the research, largely in Bolton, for The Pub and the People.

241 SOMMERFIELD, JOHN (1908-1991) THE DEATH OF CHRISTOPHER A Novel. Author’s autograph manuscript (c.. 209pp.) and heavily annotated and corrected typescript (c.215pp.), inscribed in red pen on the title by the author “To him what launched this mss, John Sommerfield” and in the hand of S. Sommerfield “He has made restitution. May god rest his soul. I hope he doesn’t lose on it. For Charles Stonehill, S. Sommerfield”, manuscript in red or green ink and pencil, typescript corrected in red or green ink and pencil, in card folder with contact details of Vernon Sommerfield, some sections page numbered, Chapter 1 marked “June 1928, New York”, at end marked “John Sommerfield, 19 Park Place, Kensington Gardens, W.” Note: Sommerfield left University College School at the age of 16 and worked as a newspaper delivery boy, stage hand and merchant seaman before moving to Chelsea, where he was active in the Communist Party. He appears to have joined the Communist Party in the early 1930s and it was a major part of his life for the following quarter century. He wrote columns for several Communist periodicals, including the Daily Worker, and was active in the Communist Party Writers’ Group.

Sommerfield’s first two books, They Die Young (1930) – which was published in the United States as The Death of Christopher – and Behind the Scenes (1934) drew upon his experiences at sea and as a stage hand. 1936 saw the publication of May Day, which is considered Sommerfield’s most important work. The novel was published by the Communist Party’s publishing house, and fictionalises a Communist uprising in London.

Throughout the war and in the following decade, Sommerfield continued to write for Communist and progressive periodicals and literary journals, including John Lehmann’s New Writing journal, and worked largely in documentary films. Among his writing, The Adversaries (1952) was a historical novel based on the life of the mathematician Evariste Galois while North West Five (1960) was a novel about a young working class couple struggling to make their own way in post-war Kentish Town in north London.

The item appears to be a mixture of original manuscript and heavily annotated typescript drafts, new sections being headed “Mss 1st”, “3/rd,” etc. Due to erratic, and the absence of, page numbering, and not having a copy of the published novel, it has not been possible to establish with certainty if the entire novel is present in manuscript or typescript but it does appear to be complete.

A significant and early literary manuscript of one of Britain’s most radical political writers of the inter-war era, which also reflects Sommerfield’s awareness of and response to modernist writing. Of particular topicality is Christopher’s interest in the human consequences of technological advances and their implications for human liberty.

Between 1936 and 1976, Sorabji instituted a “ban” on the performance of all his works, stating: “no performance at all is vastly preferable to an obscene travesty”. This was possibly partially in response to a performance of the first part of Opus Clavicembalisticum, which lasted twice as long as stipulated by the score.

243 THE EAST INDIA COMPANY: ROBERT SCOTT, FAIRLIE AND COMPANY, AGENCY HOUSES AND PAPERS OF THE SCOTT FAMILY THE DEED BOX OF ROBERT SCOTT, (17771844) tin Deed Box, 29 x 41 x 30cm, containing a large quantity of correspondence, the majority sent to Robert Scott (1777-1844) and his Agency Firm, Robert Scott, Fairlie and Company, dating from the late eighteenth to mid-nineteenth centuries, discussing East India Company trade, dealings involving colonial plantations, and family matters in both India and Britain

Provenance: Robert Scott, 1777-1884; his daughter Isabella Mary Anne Quekett (née Scott), 1816-1872 and her husband, John Thomas Quekett, d.1861, founder of the Quekett Microscopical Society in London; and thence by descent Note: This collection comprises the Deed Box and papers predominantly sent to Robert Scott, 1777-1884, and his company, Robert Scott, Fairlie and Company. The company acted as a Scottish Agency House, a middleman between the East India Company, local people in India and other areas of the British Empire and Western owners of plantations in these places. In his work, The Scottish Connection with India 1725-1833, George McGilvary rather succinctly describes the role of such organisations: Without Scottish Houses of Agency (such as Scott & Co., Fairlie Fergusson & Co., Alexander & Co., Colvin Bazett & Co.) acting as middle-men and purveyors of capital for indigo plantations and production in Bengal, for salt farms and saltpetre, and most of all for opium and cotton, the EIC would not have fulfilled its primary commercial function or been able to remit moneys to London.

A quantity of the documents contained in the deed box refer to this company. For example, a letter dated 10th April 1836 from another such company states: “We have of course no means of forming any opinion as to the present value of the Belvedere Plantation but have always considered it would be extremely advisable of the parties invested to dispose of the whole of their property in the Island should an eligible opportunity occur…” Whilst more exact details of the contemporary costs of estates, spices and land can be gleaned from other documents, providing a valuable insight into colonial trade in the early 19th century:

East India Company. Robert Scott’s uncle, David Scott (1746-1805) and moved to India in 1763 as a teenager, making his fortune through his company, Scott, Tate and Adamson. Being the younger son of Robert Scott of Dunninald, he decided to purchase the estate from his older brother, Archibald in 1786, forming friendships with figures such as Henry Dundas, at the time Head of the India Board of Control, and William Pitt. These connections proved beneficial for David Scott’s two nephews, Robert (1777-1844) and David (1786-1831). Robert Scott would follow his uncle’s lead to become a writer with the East India Company and owner of Scott, Fairlie and Company, whilst David Scott would head out to India in 1801, becoming a judge and magistrate and the agent responsible for the North East Frontier and revenues from the Assam Valley by 1824.

One of the most touching stories told in the family letters involves the three young children of David Scott the younger, his ‘natural’ children born outside of wedlock. In August 1831, letters sent to Robert Scott in England reveal the untimely death of his younger brother. Many of these letters appear to be sent by Lieutenant General Archibald Watson, David and Robert Scott’s brother-in-law, as he married their sister Ann in 1821. Watson edited Memoir of the Late David Scott, published in Calcutta in 1832. Letters sent

by Watson and other colleagues of David Scott reveal - apparently to the surprise of Robert Scott - that David was father to three young children, all of mixed British-Indian heritage: a six year old girl, and a younger boy and girl between the ages of two-and-a-half and three-and-a-half. Sent on the 19th October from Gowlpara, signed ‘Rutherford’, one letter reads: My Dear Sir, I have made enquiries with reference to your note of the 7th… And it appears that the [?] of the eldest child of poor Mr Scott now at Goahulty is about 6 yrs – it is a Girl – there are two others nearly about the [?] age 3 – The mother of two of them is said to be a native of this place, now I’ve not [?] doubt in that case that she would live here readily if any security for a provision was given, the other is I believe a native of [?] in Apaur, if she would have an objection to residing at this station, [?] it would decidedly be the best place…

Several letters discuss the care and financial situation of these children, although less so their mothers. by Christmas 1831, the children appear to be living under the care of Archibald Watson himself.

An earlier letter from General Archibald Watson to Robert Scott, discussing life in India, also offers a valuable insight into British colonial attitudes and opinions at the time. In one such letter, he writes about the Indian mutiny at Barrackpore in 1824, and his personal opinions about the future of the British Empire in India:

The Purchase Money of the Spice Plantation at Bencoolen? Called Fir Grove MsRs 5000… Add Live Stock on Plantation valued at 300…”

A very serious business has just happened at Barrackpore - a Regiment of Infantry mutinied and refused to march to join the troops in the Burmese Country - in Consequence of which 2 Regiments of Europeans were ordered from Calcutta with their guns; paraded in front of the mutineers; who, on refusing either to march or lay down their guns, were ultimately blown to pieces... The Effects of this severe Example I fear will be rather sinister throughout the Country...

However, the contents of the deed box also provides fascinating insights into the life of a British family who were heavily involved in the

...I do not think we shall ever lose our Eastern Empire - but I do not in the least doubt that it will fall to pieces...

Further family letters naturally discuss rather mundane matters, however scattered amongst these are testaments of love, details of estranged spouses (it would seem that Archibald Watson and his wife, Ann (née Scott), were separated following a suspected affair), and descriptions of voyages and journeys to India. Watson sent his children to be educated in Scotland under the supervision his wife Ann with whom he did not have children nor did she ever travel to India.

Interestingly the papers include letters relating to the position of “natural” children in Scotland.

Watson’s son Sydney Grandison emigrated to New South Wales in 1836 after finishing his education. Watson died in London, leaving his entire estate to his daughter Louisa.

Further papers relating to the Scott family in India can be found in the India Office Records, whilst the lot also contains handwritten ‘Extracts from the Letters’ and ‘David Scott: Some Pages from the Life of an Indian Civil Servant 1800-1831’ compiled by Mrs A.E. Quekett in the 1920s.

285 SKENE, SIR JAMES, OF RUBISLAW A COLLECTION OF SKETCHES, SEVERAL SEEMINGLY PRODUCED IN COLLABORATION WITH SIR WALTER SCOTT 420 sketches in a range of pencil and ink wash, including some full page illustrations and other smaller studies, all laid into an album on both sides of leaves (some illustrations removed), dating from 1793-1834, contemporary half calf boards reattached to later spine, album measuring 51 x 31cm, showing mainly Scottish scenes, a few manuscript notes accompany illustrations, the vast majority of the sketches appear to be by Sir James Skene, with only five being identified as by others (three by Skene’s sons, one by a Mr Thomson, and one by Sir William Rae, a close friend of Skene and Scott) Provenance: bookplate of James Skene of Rubislaw; the album is thought to have been purchased at auction in the 1950s by the Stevenson lighthouse family (although an acquaintance has been documented between the lighthouse engineer Robert Stevenson and Sir James Skene, suggesting a possible earlier provenance); thence by descent from the Stevenson family Note: James Skene was born on 7th March 1775 and inherited the estate of Rubislaw at the age of 16, following the untimely death of his brother. Skene was sent to university in Germany and a sketch of his lodgings whilst in Hanau can be seen as one of the earliest sketches in the album.

By profession, Skene was a lawyer, being admitted to the Scottish bar in 1797, however he was also a keen and talented amateur artist. Around the time of his admittance to the bar, Skene formed a close friendship with Sir Walter Scott, with Skene volunteering for Scott’s Light Horse Regiment. Amongst his oeuvre, Skene produced A Series of Sketches of the existing Localities alluded to in the Waverley Novels, illustrating Scott’s works. Scott valued Skene as a friend, dedicating the fourth canton of Marmion to him in 1808: Eleven years we now may tell,/ Since we have known each other well;/ Since riding side by side, our hand first drew the voluntary brand;/ and sure, through many a varied scene, unkindness never came between...

Scott then refers to Skene: The Shepherd, who in summer sun,/ Had something of our envy won, / as thou with pencil and, I with pen,/ The features trace of hill and glen.

Skene also wrote of Scott: ...as Sir Walter’s pursuits and my own led us so much in the same course that for a good many years we were seldom separated...and when even in the summer recess, either at Ashestiel or engaged in frequent border excursions... on horseback.

Scott turned to Skene for support when struggling through illness in 1819 and the album appears to contain the sketch then requested by Scott of what was to be his final resting place thirteen years later. Skene recounts Scott’s request in his Memories of Sir Walter Scott: If you promise not to laugh at me, I have a favour to ask. Do you know I have taken a childish desire to see the place where I am to be laid when I go home, which there is some probability may not now be long delayed. Now, as I cannot go to Dryburgh Abbey …it would give me much pleasure if you would take a ride down, and bring me a drawing of that spot.

Skene adds that Scott “described…the exact spot from which he wished the drawing to be made..’ and that the sketch was afterwards ‘…engraved as a frontispiece to an account of the Family of Halliburton, of which he [Scott] was a descendent by the female line.”

This album of Skene’s sketches includes at least twenty-eight studies for Skene’s etchings in A Series of Sketches of the existing Localities alluded to in the Waverley Novels, a publication encouraged by Scott, and at least four sketches, so far identified, were later used as the basis for other Scott illustrators. These sketches include those of Lagg Castle, Coldingham Priory, Manor Glen and Links of Eyemouth.

The friendship between Skene and Scott seems to have been a creative collaboration and Scott used many of Skene’s illustrations as inspiration and aide memoires for his descriptions of landscape and scenery.

Scott’s Journal entry of 4 January 1826 describes Skene and his wife, then his guests at Abbotsford, as “…excellent friends…” and Skene as “… distinguished for his attainments as a draughtsman…”

It is also likely that many of the sketches were taken during Scott and Skene’s riding excursions to ruins, castles and sites of antiquarian importance. In his Series of Sketches Skene wrote that “many of the real localities of the Waverley Novels were connected with my collection of drawings, of which a part had been taken at his [Scott’s] suggestion, many during the the various excursions we had made together.” The album certainly contains drawings from a fox chase the pair followed in around 1804, when they met Tod Willie (Guy Mannering’s Tod Gabbie), referred to in Skene’s Memories of Sir Walter Scott : “At Sir Walter’s request, I made a drawing of this scene..”

The Memories also refer to Smailholm and Skene’s visit with Sir Walter Scott, when Scott realised it would be his last visit to his grandfather’s former home, due to failing health. Two drawings of Smailholm Tower in the album can be correlated with this trip, Skene writing that Scott “made me take drawings of the scene from different points.”

Of their country rides, Skene wrote: The beauty of the scenery gave full employment to my pencil, with the free and frequent exercise of which he [Scott] never seemed to feel impatient, for he was ready and willing at all times to alight where any scene attracted our notice...

From examining Skene’s Memories, these and several other drawings in the album can be accurately traced to Scott’s and Skene’s excursions together. A letter written by Scott to Skene, dated Easter Monday 1830, also refers to Skene’s sketches of Fast Castle, found in the album: I am glad you have taken of Fast Castle. If I could get to Lord Napier’s he would let me have some curious matter for illustration...

The album also contains at least 15 sketches made by Skene on his tour to Dumfries and Galloway in early July 1829 as preparation for his Series of Sketches. Entries in Scott’s Journal and in his letters to Skene, evidence their close collaboration in selecting the subjects to be sketched.

In 1831, JMW Turner, described by Scott as “the first draughtsman of the period’” was expressing reluctance to travel to Scotland to illustrate a new edition of Scott’s Poetical Works. Scott’s proposed solution was to send Skene’s sketches to Turner for working up into finished water-colours. Scott wrote in his Journal that Turner “could derive his subjects from good accurate drawings so with Skene’s assistance we can equip him.” In fact, Turner was persuaded to journey to Scotland and Skene’s services and collection of sketches were not required. Skene had previously worked with Turner when, in 1824, he had provided the sketch of the Bell Rock Lighthouse used by Turner to paint the lighthouse for the frontispiece of Robert Stevenson’s account of its construction.

Skene in his introduction to Series of Sketches made clear that he was content that his collection of drawings with “subjects applicable to the whole series of Novels” was available for future use “…or if not, they shall be permitted to continue their repose in obscurity and undisturbed, having already, as private reminiscences, answered all the ends originally intended in collecting them.”

Although some sketches in the album appear to have been utilised after 1831, the vast majority have continued their repose, undisturbed for nearly 200 years. The existence of the album itself it little known and it does not seem to have featured in any exhibitions or research papers relating to Scott or Skene to date. A wealth of research could yet be conducted into the links between Skene’s drawings and the illustrations for Scott’s works, alongside comparisons with Skene’s Memories and Scott’s letters, tying the album into the pair’s friendship. It is surely a remarkable collection of illustrations which capture the sights and experiences encountered by one of Scotland’s greatest and most influential writers, and his close friend.

London: W.H. Allen & Co., 1881. Large 8vo, frontispiece, 30 (of 32?) plates, original red cloth gilt, covers detached

Provenance: The Late Dr Helen E C Cargill Thompson Note: Dr Helen Cargill Thompson has been recognised for her contribution to both librarianship and the art world. Born in Burma in 1933, she returned to live in Glasgow aged 6, along with her parents and two brothers, and her love of art developed in the city’s Kelvingrove Galleries. Dr Cargill Thompson lived frugally, collected art passionately and never viewed her purchases as a monetary investment, donating over 1000 pieces to Strathclyde University.

A graduate in physiology and pharmacology, Dr Cargill Thompson initially worked as a research scientist, before making the decision to pursue a career in librarianship, being awarded the Princess Royal Medal for services to the discipline.

This work, from the Cargill Thompson library, can be traced to the family’s routes in The East India Company and Burma. The Cargills were merchants in Glasgow, with interests in the East India Trading Co., and proceeded to found The Burmah Oil Company.

CONDITIONS OF SALE FOR BUYERS (UK) These Conditions of Sale and the Saleroom Notices as well as specific Catalogue terms, set out the terms on which we offer the Lots listed in this Catalogue for sale. By registering to bid and/or by bidding at auction You agree to these terms, we recommend that You read them carefully before doing so. You will find a list of definitions and a glossary at the end providing explanations for the meanings of the words and expressions used.

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.

In these Conditions the words “Us”, “Our”, “We” etc. refers to Lyon & Turnbull Ltd, the singular includes the plural and vice versa as appropriate.

“You”, “Your” means the Buyer.

Lyon & Turnbull Ltd. acts as agent for the Seller.

A. BEFORE THE SALE 1. DESCRIPTIONS OF LOTS

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. All dimensions and weights are approximate only.

2. O UR RESPONSIBILITY FOR OUR DESCRIPTION OF LOTS

We do not provide any guarantee in relation to the nature of a Lot apart from our authenticity warranty contained in paragraph E.2 and to the

19.2

extent provided below. (a) 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. (b) 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. (c) 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.

3. WITHDRAWAL

Lyon & Turnbull may, at its discretion, withdraw any Lot at any time prior to or during the sale of the Lot. Lyon & Turnbull has no liability to You for any decision to withdraw.

4. JEWELLERY, CLOCKS & OTHER ITEMS

(a) Jewellery: (i) Coloured gemstones (such as rubies, sapphires and emeralds) may have been treated to enhance their look, through methods such as heating and oiling. These methods are accepted practice but may make the gemstone less strong and/or require special care in future. (ii) All types of gemstones may have been improved by some method. You may request a gemmological report for any Lot which does not have a report if the request is made to us at least three weeks before the date of the sale and You pay the fee for the report in advance of receiving said report. (iii) We do not obtain a gemmological

report for every gemstone sold in our sales. Where we do get gemmological reports from internationally accepted gemmological laboratories, such reports may be described in the Sale Particulars. Reports will describe any improvement or treatment only if we request that they do so, but will confirm when no improvement or treatment has been made. Because of differences in approach and technology, laboratories may not agree whether a particular gemstone has been treated, the amount of treatment or whether treatment is permanent.

The gemmological laboratories will only report on the improvements or treatments known to the laboratories at the date of the report. (iv) For jewellery sales, all Estimates are based on the information in any gemmological report or, if no gemmological report is available, You should assume that the gemstones may have been treated or enhanced. (b) 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. Clocks may be sold without pendulums, weights or keys. (c) Alcohol: 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. All collections must be signed for by a person over the age of 18. We Reserve the right to ask for ID from the person collecting. Buyers of alcohol must make appropriate allowances for natural variations of ullages, conditions of corks and wine. We can provide no guarantees as to how the alcohol may have been stored. There is always a risk of cork failure and allowance by the Buyer must be made. Alcohol is sold “as is” and quality of the alcohol is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no warranties are given.

(d) 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. (e) 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. (f) 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.

3. FAILURE TO PROVIDE THE RIGHT DOCUMENTS

If in our opinion You do not satisfy our Bidder identification and registration procedures including, but not limited to, completing any anti-money laundering and/or anti-terrorism financing checks we may require to our satisfaction, we may refuse to register You to bid, and if You make a successful bid, we may cancel the contract between You and the Seller.

3. A RTIST’S RESALE ROYALTY (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.

E. WARRANTIES

1. THE PURCHASE PRICE

1. SELLER’S WARRANTIES

For each Lot purchased a Buyer’s Premium of 25% of the Hammer Price of each Lot up to and including £300,000, plus 20% from £300,001 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.

For each Lot, the Seller gives a warranty that the Seller; (a) Is the owner of the Lot or a joint owner of the Lot acting with the permission of the other co-owners, or if the Sellers is not the owner of or a joint owner of the Lot, has the permission of the owner to sell the Lot, or the right to do so in law, and; (b) Had the right to transfer ownership of the Lot to the Buyer without any restrictions or claims by anyone else.

If either other above warranties are incorrect, the Seller shall not have to pay more than the Purchase Price (as defined in the glossary) paid by You to us. The Seller will not be responsible to You for any reason for loss of profits or business, expected savings, loss of opportunity or interest, costs, damages, other damages or expense.

2. 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. (a) 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. (b) 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 outwit the European Union. This reduced rate is applicable to Antique items.

2. 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

128 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 we, in our reasonable opinion, deem 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 Buyer’s Premium paid for the Lot by the original purchaser.

This Guarantee does not apply if: (a) 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 (b) 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 (c) 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: (a) 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 (b) 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 & 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.
