Sir Patrick Moore [Patrick Alfred Caldwell-Moore] (1923-2012), English astronomer and writer and populariser of astronomy [ H Da
Sir Patrick Moore. Typescript with Autograph corrections of 13 scripts for South African radio series title 'Into Space' with version rewritten for publication and four Autograph Letters Signed and Autograph Card Signed to H. David Lloyd.
Moore's correspondence on his letterhead Farthings 39 West Street Selsey Sussex. Dated between 11 November 1972 and 5 February 1973. The talks undated but from shortly before this. Collection of eleven items. In fair condition lightly aged and worn. ONE: Typescripts of 13 radio talks. 65pp. 4to. On loose leaves. Titles: 1 'Our Earth in Space'; 2 'Dreams of other Worlds'; 3 'Rockets into Space'; 4 'Man-made Moons'; 5 'Man in Space'; 6 'Space Research and Ourselves'; 7 'Contact with the Moon'; 8 '"One small Step . . . ."'; 9 'Space Stations and Lunar Bases'; 10 'Mariners to Mars'; 11 'Into the Hot Regions'; 12 'The Grand Tour'; 13 'Flight to the Stars'. With a few manuscript emendations by Moore in black felt-tip pen and other editorial emendations. TWO: Version of Item One substantially rewritten for publication. 79pp. folio. On loose leaves. Titles: 1 'Men and the Stars'; 2 'Watchers of the Stars'; 3 'The Sun's Family'; 4 'The Moon World'; 5 'Our Neighbour Planets'; 6 'Giants of the Solar System'; 7 'Wanderers in Space'; 8 'Our Star - The Sun'; 9 'Other Suns'; 10 'Stars of Many Kinds'; 11 'Gas Clouds and Island Universes'; 12 'Beginnings and Endings'; 13 'Life Elsewhere' THREE: Typed 'Foreword' to Item Two by 'Patrick Moore Selsey 1972.' With extensive autograph emendations. The second paragraph of three reads: 'The SABC English Service had invited me to make a short series of broadcasts. This was followed later by a second series; and after that it was suggested that I should present regular weekly broadcasts on astronomical topics. There have been many requests for copies of these talks and the present book has grown out of them. Obviously they have been modified and some of the essentially topical but now outdated references have been removed; but I hope they present a varied and perhaps historical account of events during 1972 a momentous year in astronomical progress.' FOUR to EIGHT: Five Typed Letters Signed all 'Patrick' from Moore to 'Dear David' - H. David Lloyd of the South African Boradcasting Corporation Johannesburg. Totalling six pages. The correspondence concerns the preparation of the talks for publication. In the first letter 11 November 1972 he writes: 'I dropped everything and did my best. I have amended the articles to make them untopical . I have added a Foreword and I have managed to scrape up a picture for each talk.' On 27 November 1972 he writes that he is 'off to America on Monday for Apollo 17 but have arranged two sessions at the BBC this week before I go. I will therefore be well ahead. Wish I could do one direct from Cape kennedy; but it's too risky'. A letter of 15 January 1973 largely devoted to the 'mystery' of tapes of talks despatched by the BBC which have not arrived in South Africa has as postscript: 'Forgive typing. I am used to a 1908 machine and the BBC one is modern!' On 23 January 1973 he asks if anything came of 'the book of the talks As you know I rushed it through before I went to America in December because I gathered it was needed before Christmas; but I haven't heard another thing!! I'd be most grateful if you'd let me know; and if you are NOT publishing them after all I'd be glad to have them back because someone else is very interested in doing them Reid's.' In the last letter 5 February 1973 he discusses the talks expresses relief at the arrival of the tapes and pleasure at the news about the book. He concludes: 'I do hope to see you again this year. I have the pleasantest possible memories of South Africa!' NINE: Autograph Card Signed 'P' by Moore. 11 November 1972. With his Farthings letterhead. He is 'Off to New York for a conference' and has airmailed 'all illustrations . with long letter i.e. Item Four'. 'Back to Selsey on Nov. 24. Have recorded well ahead of course and am recording again on the 26th.' TEN: Typed Note on BBC letterhead from C. Bunyan for Pat Wood of General Features Television. 14 November 1972. 'Patrick Moore has asked me to send you this slide of Tycho's statue for the book.' ELEVEN: Copy of Typed Letter from Lloyd to Moore 'Productions Organiser English Service'. 31 January 1973. Informing him that 'the missing tape was discovered incorrectly filed in our Tape Library at Broadcast House' and that after a delay publication is 'now in progress'. Moore's correspondence on his letterhead, Farthings, 39 West Street, Selsey, Sussex. Dated between 11 November 1972 and 5 Februa unknown
