The Wenham Connection Wenham, Francis Herbert (1824, Kensington – 1908) was a British marine engineer who studied the problem of human flight and later became involved in optics and the improvement of the microscope. He is credited with inventing the ‘Wenham binocular’ microscope, a binocular arrangement copied by almost all 19th century microscope makers. He joined Ross & Co. as an adviser following the death of Thomas Ross in 1870 where he designed his magnus opus - the Ross-Wenham Radial microscope, the largest binocular microscope of the Victorian era. This instrument, as previously mentioned, was originally bought (according to the Beck records by F. H. Wenham) on 2nd September 1853. According to the letter that accompanies the microscope this is Wenham’s prototype binocular microscope which was first exhibited at a meeting of the Microscopical Society of London on the 12th of December 1860 (i). The handwritten letter written and signed by Wenham states: This is the original Wenham’s Binocular arrangement made by F. H. Wenham and fitted by him to his large Smith & Beck microscope, these parts being necessarily detachable having been the first ever adapted. Also a prism for including the full aperture of high power objectives. This letter is further accompanied with an extract from the “Intellectual Observer” (1866) titled ‘Mr. Wenham’s New Binocular’ which appears to discuss in detail the high power prism that comes with this instrument. Wenham’s highpower prism was also the subject of a detailed report in the transactions of the Microscopical Society of London in 1866 (ii). The accessory set has a 1/25inch objective in a can engraved Wenham and dated 1856. This very lens appears to have been the subject of praise in the 1857 Microscopical Society of London’s President’s address by the then president, George Shadbolt. It appears to be at the time the most powerful objective ever made. Provenance: 1993 - Sold at Christie’s South Kensington, Engineering and Scientific Works of Art, Instruments and Models, 6th May 1993, Lot 183 and formed part of the ‘Jacob Collection - an Important Swiss Collector’. 1939 – Private sale between Charles A Smith and Mr Alan Connelly in whose collection it remained until his death. 1911 - The microscope was sold by Dollond & Co in 1911 just three years after Wenham’s death in 1908. And bought by C. A. Smith 1853 – Bought from Messer’s Smith & Beck, 6 Coleman St. London by Francis H Wenham i,Wenham, Francis H., 12th December 1860, On a new Combined Binocular and Single Microscope, London, Transactions of the Microscopical Society of London, 5 pages. ii, Wenham, Francis H., 9th May 1866, On a Binocular microscope for High Powers, Transactions of the Microscopical Society of London, 14

A Prisoner of War Home-Made Camera, circa 1943; this camera appears to be unique and is reputed to have been made by an Italian prisoner of war in a camp in Perthshire; its origins remain a mystery as it has so many refinements that it almost appears to be a ‘labour of love’ by a skilled craftsman; the lens and shutter are of quite high quality and have been removed from an unidentified old camera of about 1909 and may have been one made by ICA of Dresden; the camera uses 35mm film wound from one cassette into another and the sprocket over which it winds rotates the pointer on the dial at the top, two frames per complete rotation; it also operates a frame counter, which can be re-set and the lens of the tiny folding viewfinder comes from another camera. There are two unusual features, one being the socket for a small spirit level, suggesting that the camera was intended for document copying and the other being a non-standard accessory shoe. The camera’s interior is painted with home-made black paint and the final finishing touch is a holder from a filing cabinet on the back to hold a card £200 - £300

452. An Early Experimental ‘Mousetrap’ Camera, English, c.1840, unsigned, constructed of solid heavy-gauge (15mm thick) mahogany with brass pins through the edges to secure in place, the front lens panel with 6 brass pins to secure, with central aperture holding a brass tube (29mm OD), with a single convex lens held in place with a split ring, to the rear of the camera is a single door held in place with a steel wire loop and bone wedge, the inside of the door has a protruding square of mahogany to which the sensitised paper would have been pinned, to the inside top of the door are multiple holes where the pins were inserted, camera, excluding lens, 11.7cm long x 7.3cm x 7.3cm This camera has been studied, photographed and documented by Roger Watson FRSA, Curator of the Fox Talbot Museum as follows;

“An Early Experimental ‘Mousetrap’ Camera The current owner of this camera brought it to me in 2019 for examination. I knew him and had examined other cameras of his in the past. The size, crudeness of construction and the obvious signs of age indicated to me that this had all the hallmarks of an early experimental camera. By the end of 1839, optical instrument makers in England, France and the US were making finely finished and well-made cameras for the gentleman artist. Prior to that the earliest experimenters had to make their own cameras and these were usually either a converted camera obscura or, like this one, a simple box with a simple lens in one side. The best-known examples of early experimental cameras are the ‘Mousetrap’ cameras used by William Henry Fox Talbot between 1835 and 1840 for his experiments in photogenic drawing. Though there is nothing to indicate that this example was made by or used by Talbot. Numerous descriptions of these crude cameras exist from the period. In October 1839, Joseph Saxton took a daguerreotype of the Philadelphia Central High School using a cigar box and a glass lens. Similarly in 1840, John Adams Whipple made his first photograph “using a sun-glass for a lens, a candle box for a camera.” As these cameras were usually small and crude, it’s not surprising that they quickly disappeared and were replaced by professionally manufactured cameras for those who wished to continue with making images. This is a rare survival of the first years of photography.” £50,000 - £70,000

Historically many gemstones have been subjected to a variety of treatments to enhance their appearance. Sapphires and rubies are routinely heat treated to improve their colour and clarity, similarly emeralds are frequently treated with oils or resin for the same purpose. Other treatments such as staining, irradiation or coating may have been used on other gem stones. These treatments may be permanent, whilst others may need special care or re-treatment over the years to retain their appearance. Estimates The estimate is printed underneath the lot. Estimates are only an expression of Flints Actions opinion made on behalf of the vendor of the lot is likely to fall, it is not an estimate of value. Prices depend on the bidding and can sell for hammer prices below or above the estimates, so estimates should not be relied upon as an indication of the actual selling price or value of a Lot.
