‎John Farleigh, prob [Frederick William Charles Farleigh] (1900-1965), English wood engraver [George Bernard Shaw]:‎

‎John Farleigh wood engraver. Wood-engraving of naked black girl with African man with garland of flowers around his groin in same style as those for Bernard Shaw's 'Adventures of the Black Girl in her Search for God'. Apparently unpublished.‎

‎Place and date not stated. London circa 1932. Printed in black on one side of piece of 33 x 20 cm thick paper full page containg image 20 x 13cm. Dimensions of print 23 x 13.5 cm largest image in book 15 x 9.5cm . In good condition on lightly aged and creased paper with slight foxing. The image depicts: on the left and extending the height of the print an athletically-built black man naked but for wreaths of flowers across his brow and his groin penis and scrotum evident leaning forward to proffer a flower to a naked black girl the "Black Girl in Search" 17cm high viewed from the back whose left arm is raised while her right is behind her back holding a flower. According to Farleigh's entry in the Oxford DNB he 'achieved wide acclaim and recognition for his illustrations to The Adventures of the Black Girl in her Search for God written by George Bernard Shaw and published by Constable in 1932. Shaw commissioned Farleigh after requesting a trial drawing and was closely involved in the designs. Farleigh duly acknowledged Shaw's input in his partly autobiographical work Graven Image 1940 where he gave a detailed account of the progress of the book. Shaw's witty satirical text and Farleigh's quasi-erotic depictions of the African girl ‘a fine creature whose satin skin and shining muscles made the missionary folk seem like ashen ghosts’ Shaw The Black Girl 1932 8 guaranteed its success. The first edition of 25000 copies priced inexpensively at 2s. 6d. was sold immediately. This was the first mass-produced book of the period to contain wood-engravings and it was effective in popularizing the medium for commercial book illustration as well as for the private presses.' No information has been found concerning this woodcut in Farleigh's "Graven Image" or elsewhere but one reviewer found "sexual symbolism" which he didn't know if Farleigh was aware of ! "Graven Image" p.268. Recalling how a character in "Happy Days" set in the 'fifties could only find images of naked or near naked women in National Geographic African scenes could "Adventures" have provided pin-ups suited to its era! But the naked black man may have been a step too far. Any information welcome. White space of image on file slightly clipped. Place and date not stated. [London, circa 1932.] unknown‎

‎‘King of Redonda’: John Gawsworth English poet. Galley proof of his poem ‘Rest’ ‘Beneath the oaks the soldiers lie’ with one minor emendation.‎

‎No date 1940s. Stamped ‘FOR & ON BEHALF OF / THE NEW ENGLISH WEEKLY. / 15 REGENT’S PARK TERRACE / GULiver 3875’. On one side of a 12mo a piece of grey-green paper; creased worn and torn at the bottom. A fifteen-line poem in five three-line stanzas titled ‘REST’. At end: ‘JOHN GAWSWORTH’. Proof directions in pencil to convert a full-stop at the end of the fourth stanza to a comma. While the poet's attempt at direct simplicity verges on triteness one should recall that he served manfully in the RAF: ‘Beneath the oaks the soldiers lie / Staring at the open sky / Drowsily lazily. / Like England is this plot of green / But in the mountains all unseen / The guns’ complaint affects the scene. / Death is abroad this sunny day. / Life has no time for idle play: / Soon these will go their comrades’ way. / Meanwhile the oaks throw chequered shade / Upon the brows of many a blade / Still eager and still unafraid / And overhead the clouds scud on / Unto their own oblivion / Whence soon these men too will be gone.’ Apparently published in the Briarcliffe Quarterly - Volumes 1-12 - Page 50 1944 but Google don't even give a snippet. No date [1940s]. Stamped ‘FOR & ON BEHALF OF / THE NEW ENGLISH WEEKLY. / 15 REGENT’S PARK TERRACE / GULiver 3875’. unknown‎

‎Gloag's three letters: 17 February and 9 October 1950 and 19 March 1951; all on letterheads of 3 The Mall East Sheen London S.W.14. All six items are good on lightly aged paper with pin holes to the top left-hand corners. Gloag's first letter 4to 1 p 13 lines concerns a 'most unfortunate error made by the Rotary Club of London in printing a paper which I recently gave on "Design in Industry". The copy of Gloag's letter to Read typed 17 February 1950 4to 1 p reveals this to have been the describing of Gloag 'on the luncheon menu as an "R.D.I." ' In the copy of Luckhurst's reply 12mo 1 p 16 lines he comments that he has 'read enough press reports to know how unavoidable such things are'. Gloag's second letter 4to 2 pp concerns an approach which has been made to one of the Society's new members Gloag's friend F. C. Hooper 'with a suggestion that he should use his influence in business in order to advertise in the Society's Journal'. Gloag considers that 'it is beneath the dignity of the Society to tout for advertisements' and suggests that 'all the letters sent out by the Society' should be withdrawn. Gloag's third letter 12mo 1 p 7 lines explains that he has been asked by Raymond Loewy to forward his book 'Never Leave Well Enough Alone' to the Society's library. Luckhurst's reply 12mo 1 p 5 lines acknowledges receipt of the book.

‎Autograph Letter Signed to Dollman.‎

‎10 November 1906; on letterhead of 88 Kensington Park Road W. London. 8vo 1 p. Nine lines. Text clear and complete. Fair on aged and lightly-spotted paper lightly-creased and with small closed tears at edges of central crease. From the context of other items in the same collection this letter relates to an 'Artists general Benevolent Banquet' for which Dollman was acting as steward. Hassall writes that the previous year he 'got into trouble through giving subscriptions to stewards of other society's than the Royal. Institution.' so that 'if there's to be an R. I. table this year I must support it for all I'm worth'. If there is no Royal Institution dinner he will be 'pleased to swell your ranks'. He will keep Dollman's letter 'handy' until he is sure 'in which direction my allegiance lies'. 10 November 1906; on letterhead of 88 Kensington Park Road, W. [London] unknown‎

Being away from home and his papers he cannot answer all the recipient's questions but 'it will be enough if I say that I shall not require an Organ & that the Illustrations to my lecture would or might be made to consist exclusively of unaccompanied vocal music mostly English. The effect of some pieces might be increased by being performed chorally - say with three or four good voices to a part but they will all admit of performance by one voice to a part'. He assumes that St Andrew's Hall 'can hardly be worse adapted for speaking in than the room in which I lecture sometimes at Edinburgh which is cruciform & holds 2500 people'. He comments on the practice of lecturing before concluding with the suggestion that 'all the Illustrations might be very safely left to the Cathedral Choir'.
