‎Jack Ernest Bridgman, SX3874‎

‎1940 - 1942 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT ARCHIVE OF LETTERS AND EPHEMERA BY AN AUSTRALIAN SIGNALMAN WHO FOUGHT FOR THE LIBERATION OF GREECE AND HIS RECOVERY OF WOUNDS SUFFERED IN SYRIA‎

‎ATHENS GREECE DAMASCUS SYRIA. Good. 1940. On offer is an interesting modest archive of three 3 manuscript letters plus additional ephemera from an Australian signaller with the 1st Australian Corps Signals serving in Greece Syria and Lebanon between 1940 to 1942 to his sweetheart in Melbourne. Jack Ernest Bridgman SX3874 who went on to become a sergeant in the AIF by the end of the war writes in the first dated 4 May 1940 is three pages in length Jack makes apologies to Lois for not writing as he was one of the boys in Greece and he 'had a very busy time what with the mud snow bombs and bullets" "and there was even very little time to sleep". He considered himself lucky to survive and he "thought I was going to be left to be buried but luck was on my side". He describes Athens and being sent to the "front lines" which was "hell on earth" as he was a despatch rider. He describes the Germans aircraft bombing them and the hardships imposed by the Germans. In great detail he describes a dispatch job to a ammo dump that was 15 miles away and it took him 4 hours as German aircraft flew over "by the dozens' and forced him to "jump off his bike 20 times". He finally made it to the ammo dump but 12 planes came over and "blew up all the ammo and I was in the middle of it" and he had to stay in a mud hole for 3 hours until "all the shells and bullets stopped going off". To his great sorrow his motorcycle had been blown up as well. He then had to get a lift via a military truck and they had driven not long when another plane attacked the truck he was in then it "blew it the truck off the road killing the two boys that were in the front" and forcing Jack to jump off the rear of the truck "just in time". All that Jack sustained was a gashed leg. A super letter regarding the war in Greece. The second has Jack looking not so fortunate as he explains to Lois as to why he has not written to her for a long time. He was travelling through a township when "a few Hun planes dropped quite a few large bombs and one made a mess of me". He has quite a few stitches in different parts of his body including his head and had lost his index finger on his right hand. He is in hospital and the nurses are treating him well and his "cobbers" have been dropping in to see him. He explains that "there are a lot of boys around me a lot worse than I ever was". He was unconscious for two days and lost his hearing for 6 days. This letter would have been written when he was in Syria as it is dated 3 Oct 1941. Fortunately Jack would get back to his unit and eventually survive the war. For an infantry division to fight effectively its commander must be in contact with his subordinate units at all times. To do this during the Second World War the signals unit had to provide the commander with communications whether by despatch rider on motorcycle over the telephone and wireless or any other necessary means. Communications had to be maintained around the clock under all conditions and no matter how difficult. This was the role of Jack. The third and final letter of two pages has Jack describing that "he thinks his Army days are over" and he is thinking of joining the Navy and wanting confirmation from Lois if she thinks he is doing the right thing. What is really interesting is that he has not heard from his 'three cobbers' who were on board the HMAS Sydney when it was sunk. The letter is dated May 1942 6 months after the sinking and basically the Australian public was still unaware that all hands had been lost. Such was the fear on public reaction. Here are the ephemeral pieces: 1 a card from the 1st Australian Corps Signals to Lois; 2 three telegrams and envelopes two sent to Lois when Jack was still in Australia and one sent from Syria and the envelope has a censors stamp; 3 there is a postcard from Happy Jack to Lois showing the Mosque at Damas; 4 5 small "snaps" mainly of Syria but a really good one of; "Aussie Bren Gun Carrier at official entry into Beirut". Each snap is written on the rear; 5 There is a leather souvenir wallet Syria/Lebanon with 3 photos large one of 'Happy" Jack to Lois 1941 the author of this lot which is postcard size two smaller photos of Jack and two mates and Jack on his signallers motorcycle; 6 There is a large message from Syria to Australia and Jack is wishing a Merry Xmas to Lois; and lastly 7 A letter to Lois with mainly small talk and Jack enquiring about contacting her via telephone. Overall an excellent record for the AIF historian or an enthusiast of the AIF Greece and Syria campaigns.

Photographs Throughout. 271 pp. The last junior college annual of Jackie Robinson with his half-length photographic portrait on Varsity football team. The description of Varsity football begins: "Pasadena Junior College's greatest football team sparked by its greatest individual athlete Jack Robinson. That's what critics were saying of Coach Tom Mallory's 1938 gridiron juggernaut after the Bulldogs won 11 straight games scoring 369 points. Unanimous choice as most valuable player Robinson's contribution was 131 points and over 1000 yards from scrimmage." In the game against Santa Ana " Jack Robinson's 83-yard gallop with Larry Monroy's punt was the climax of the wild-scoring game. four touchdowns plus Jack Robinson's field goal and four conversions were too much for Santa Ana" which lost 31-19." Against San Bernardino Two men Jack Robinson of Pasadena and Hal Finney of San Bernardino were directly responsible for all ten touchdowns. Robinson scored three personally and passed to Frank Spratt Don Winton and Ray Bartlett for three more." Against Ventura 27-6 Jack scored and again after gallops of 60 and 14 yards.

Third score was made on a 45-yard gallop from scrimmage by the phenomenal Jackie. Against Phoenix 40-0 "Jack Robinson got off a 65-yard return." Against San Francisco ! "Jack Robinson was a one-man riot as he scampered 76 yards to a score on the second scrimmage play. Later Jackie went 14 yards for a touchdown and made three conversions for a total of 15 points. Ray Bartlett on a pass from Robinson made another touchdown. Jackie's ball-toting averaged 14.8."

By winning this game the Bulldogs tied Santa Monica for the Western conference league crown." Against Cal Tech 39-6 "Jack Robinson and 16 other seniors rang down the curtain on their Pasadena football careers as they walloped cross town rival Cal Tech in the season finale. Robinson's closing chapter was a 104-yard run to the touchdown climaxing the greatest individual career in jaysee history" after scoring also on a pass.

‎Andrew Jackson Signed United States Patent.‎

‎Washington D.C. June 22 1832. Rare United States Patent signed by Andrew Jackson as the 7th President of the United States. One page partially printed the patent is dated June 22 1832 and is issued to inventor Henry Koon for a fly net. In the nineteenth century fly nets were protective mesh coverings designed to shield horses from flies and other biting insects particularly during the warmer months when insect activity was at its height. In military contexts fly nets were essential for maintaining the health and readiness of cavalry and transport horses which were vital to communication mobility and supply lines. The document is co-signed by Secretary of State Edward Livingston and Attorney General Roger B. Taney both of whom played major roles in Jacksonian-era politics. Jackson's signature shows minor ink skipping and the white paper seal is partially removed as is typical for documents of this age and format. Four years after this patent was issued the U.S. Patent Office suffered a catastrophic loss when a destructive fire broke out on the night of December 15 1836 in Blodgett's Hotel in Washington D.C. which at that time housed the Patent Office. The blaze destroyed nearly 10000 patent records and more than 7000 patent models; indeed almost all documentation of inventions submitted before 1836 was lost. These early patents now referred to as “X-Patents†largely disappeared from the historical record with only a small number later reconstructed from surviving copies or private records. Consequently original patent documents from this pre-fire period—particularly those bearing the signature of a sitting president such as Andrew Jackson—are exceptionally rare and historically significant representing surviving evidence of America’s earliest recorded innovations. In very good condition. Matted and framed with a portrait of Andrew Jackson. The entire piece measures 28 inches by 24 inches. Accompanied by a JSA letter of authenticity. Andrew Jackson 1767–1845 the seventh President of the United States served from 1829 to 1837 and was one of the most influential and controversial figures in early American political history. Rising to national prominence as a military leader—most notably for his victory at the Battle of New Orleans during the War of 1812—Jackson later became the central figure of the Democratic Party and a leading advocate of what became known as Jacksonian democracy a political movement that emphasized expanded participation in government for white male citizens and a populist challenge to established political and economic elites. During his presidency Jackson strengthened the authority of the executive branch and pursued policies that reshaped the nation’s political and financial systems including his opposition to the Second Bank of the United States during the so-called Bank War. His administration was also marked by deeply controversial policies most notably the Indian Removal Act of 1830 which led to the forced relocation of Native American tribes from the southeastern United States to territories west of the Mississippi River. Jackson’s presidency thus occupies a central place in the development of American democracy while also remaining closely associated with some of the most consequential and debated policies of the nineteenth century. unknown‎

‎Proclamation by Andrew Jackson President of the United States.‎

‎10 December 1832. Rare broadside containing the entirety of President Andrew Jackson's Proclamation to the people of the United States in the wake of the Nullification Crisis of 1832. Dated December 10 1832 one page typescript. The Nullification Crisis of 1832-1833 was a confrontation between South Carolina and the federal government over tariffs where South Carolina declared federal tariffs null and void within its borders leading to a near-civil war that was resolved by a compromise tariff and the Force Bill. Here Jackson declares South Carolina's actions "incompatible with the existence of the Union contradicted expressly by its spirit inconsistent with every principle on which it was founded and destructive of the great object for which it was formed." In near fine condition with some creasing and scattered tears paper loss professionally conserved. Matted and framed. The broadside measures 33 inches by 22.25 inches. The entire piece measures 39 inches by 27.5 inches. The Nullification Crisis was a significant political conflict that erupted in South Carolina in 1832 stemming from a fierce dispute between the U.S. federal government and the state over the Tariffs of 1828 and 1832. South Carolina's leaders deemed these tariffs unconstitutional and argued that they unfairly burdened their state. In response President Andrew Jackson secured authorization to deploy federal troops to enforce compliance and maintain order. Ultimately negotiations led to the passage of the Compromise Tariff of 1833 easing tensions. This crisis foreshadowed South Carolina’s secession in 1860 and the eventual outbreak of the Civil War in 1861. unknown‎
