He begins by informing him that the accounts 'for sale of your works for the past year are being made out'. and that he hopes to send them in a few days: 'they have been delayed only until I could receive from the various newspapers the accounts of advertising'. He continues regarding a portrait of Hallam by Thomas Phillips: 'I have this day seen Phillips Copy of your Portrait - very nearly finished - & as it seems to me executed with care & accuracy'.

Typed Letter Signed from John Papworth to Mrs Ena Driberg wife of the Labour MP Tom Driberg
On letterhead of the British Asian and Overseas Socialist Fellowship London Branch. 15 November 1957. 1p. 4to. Fair on aged paper with one small burn-hole to margin. Addressed to 'Mrs. T. Driberg Bradwell Lodge Bradwell juxta Mare nr. Southminster Essex.' He thanks her for receiving 'an African boy from Northern Rhodesia and some members of my family' and 'showing us the details of your charming house so unhesitatingly'. He discusses the 'astonishing contrast the house is to the landscape around it. One expects to find tumble down farm sheds and aerodrome hangers and even I suppose atomic power stations but certainly not a wonderfully cared for Georgian masterpiece and it is this sense of surprise and amazement with which one comes across it which lends it a very unique kind of enchantment.' He hopes that if the house is still open to visitors the following summer 'it will be possible to bring some of our friends down for a visit as part of our programme'. He concludes: 'Kenneth Kaunda joins me in thanking you again for your kindness and friendly reception.'

John Phillips (1926-2017), flaneur and literary executor of Violet Trefusis (1894-1972; nee Keppel), English socialite and autho
Rudolf Nureyev: personal reminiscences of John Phillips. Privately printed collection of 'Nureyev Notes August 1966' regarding 'Sleeping Beauty' at La Scala Milan. Inscribed by Phillips to Barbara Reed.
Privately printed. Phuket Thailand; 2009. Inscription of February 2011. After a twelve-year 'amitié amoureuse' with Phillips Violet Trefusis died in 1972 appointing him her literary executor and leaving him her last home La Tour de Saint Loup. The present item – only one other copy of which has been traced – is from a collection of Phillips's papers amassed by his friend Barbara Reed containing pamphlets privately printed by him between 2009 and 2014. Phillips's obituary in the Daily Telegraph 'John Phillips globetrotting flâneur and literary executor of Violet Trefusis' 24 March 2017 places the item in context by describing how at the end of his life 'economics caught up with Phillips. He sold Violet Trefusis’s house papers and chattels. He moved to Thailand after spells in Italy and Switzerland settling in Phuket from where he tried with relentless persistence to persuade friends and casual acquaintances to seek publishing outlets for his memories of once famous figures or to purchase valueless copyrights despite having sent his own papers to the Lilly Library at Indiana University in 2004 and 2013 . His friends sighed at the deluge of attachments which arrived by email along with desperate pleas for financial assistance.' According to the obituary 'In August 1966 Phillips caught the eye of Rudolph Nureyev who invited him to accompany him to La Scala. The dancer hoped Phillips would write about his art but he was more absorbed by his private life since Nureyev chose to “slip away and seek his adventures in the rough and dangerous pastures of Milan†at a time when there were genuine threats that he might be kidnapped by furious Communists.' 11pp 12mo. Very much a home made item: printed on six leaves of thick paper and perfect bound in transparent plastic covers with spine of blue tape. The title-page is headed '1 NUREYEV NOTES AUGUST 1966' over a reproduction of a signed photograph of Nureyev and there is a black and white photograph at the end. Inscribed by Phillips at the foot of p.10: 'for dear Barbara from John Feb 2011'. Gossippy undigested notes such as: 'R.N. to me: “What do you do†“I write occasionally about something or someone who interests meâ€. R.N.: “What interests you†“You!†R.N. “Next week I go to the Scala to rehearse Sleeping Beauty. Come with me.†“Yesâ€.' and 'Fantastic the speed of changes in facial expression and mood: delirious joy then sudden eruption of violent annoyance dreamy daze “back to earth†expression playfulness the contagious laughing smile.' and 'R. burning intensity Tartar wildness says that he is not Russian but Tartar very different. Reads “TIME†during rest-break likens style to computer.' and 'Said Lorca: “You know most of my friends in the ballet are “gayâ€. Also my father but I'm NOT! Rudy knows this but last night he took me to bars and he gave me so much drink and tried so hard.â€.' The only extended section on 'DRESS REHEARSAL: about 500 present. R. Increasingly nervous.' followed by '22nd September' concluding: 'I look back to these weeks at La Scala with wonder. Since I only knew Nureyev during this period I retain an image of dazzling youth and genius. Another impression: Nureyev's genius as an Actor. If he could not have danced a step what would still be fantastic was his magic in transforming himself.' The episode ends with 'telegrams from Violet that I should return to Florence that I was ruining my reputation by being with the ballet people in Milano. Typical Violet jealous nonsense! Reputation be damned! These were the best of weeks for which I'll always be grateful to R.' The pamphlet ends with the assessment of Nureyev of Serge Lifar now lacking 'the celebrated beauty that had enchanted Diaghilev': 'After myself and Nijinski he is best'. The item is not present among the 'Writings' listed in the inventory of the Phillips Papers at the Lilly Library and as stated only one other copy has been traced. That copy in larger format and dated to 2009 is present among the Barbara Reed collection of Phillips papers offered separately. Privately printed. [Phuket, Thailand; 2009.] Inscription of February 2011. unknown

John Piper (1903-1992), English painter [Ambroise Vollard (1866-1939), art dealer and connoisseur; Paul Cezanne (1839-1906)]:
John Piper artist Autograph Memorandum by the artist John Piper describing how Vollard's biography of Cézanne inspired him when he read it as a teenager.
On letterhead of Fawley Bottom Farmhouse near Henley-on-Thames Oxfordshire. Undated. 1p. 12mo. In fair condition on aged and lightly-creased paper. Clearly responding to an enquiry regarding what books had had a formative influence on his life Piper writes: 'Vollard's Life of Cézanne because it showed me in my teens that an artist can be dedicated unbohemian unworldly against the tide and absolutely true to his instincts which happened to be right. The book - by a dealer too! - has the same characteristics.' Beneath this the name 'JOHN PIPER' is written in capitals in felt-tip pen but this does not appear to be Piper's signature and is in a diffferent hand to the memorandum which is certainly by Piper and appears to be unpublished. See Scan. On letterhead of Fawley Bottom Farmhouse near Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire. Undated. unknown

17 Gloucester Crescent NW London . 3 March 1871. 3pp. 12mo. Bifolium. In fair condition on aged paper laid down on part of a leaf from an album. He writes that he has 'carefully looked over the Copy of "Turner's England and Wales" that will be offered for Sale at Christies rooms on Tuesday next' and that while he finds it 'in all respects good of its kind and applicable to the Library of a gentleman' it is 'not so well applicable to the Studio of an Artist whose aim is to acquire from it all the knowledge that a more refined class of impressions of places might impart to him'. He has been told by a clerk at Christie's that the probable sum the work will sell for is twelve to fifteen pounds and that a proof copy 'would realise a very different sum'. 17 Gloucester Crescent, NW [ London ]. 3 March 1871. unknown

John Roby (1793-1850), English banker, poet and author, best-known for his 'Traditions of Lancashire' (1829) [Henrietta Cecil Th
Holograph document by John Roby consisting of a ballad from his 'forthcoming "Traditions of Lancashire"' beginning with the line 'Maiden braid those tresses bright' preceded by an Autograph Note Signed 'Jn Roby' by Roby for Mrs. Thelwall.
The document dated 'Rochdale 11th. December 1828'. 4pp. 4to. On two loose leaves of Whatman paper each watermarked 1827. Very good on lightly-aged paper. The document begins with the following note dated and signed by Roby: 'The following ballad from my forthcoming "Traditions of Lancashire" though not of much value in itself may yet acquire some from its connexion with and introduction into Mrs. Thelwall's elegant volume of Scraps.' The implication that the two leaves have been removed from Mrs Thelwall's album is supported by pagination from 12 to 15. Sixty-four lines divided into sixteen four-line stanzas. This version only differs in one instance from that published two years later in Roby's 'Traditions of Lancashire': the fifty-seventh line in the published version - 'The moon looks bright on Rudolph's towers' reads in this version 'The moon looks bright o'er Speke's grey towers'. The recipient is more likely to be the wife of John Thelwall than that of his son Algernon Sydney Thelwall Georgiana Ann née Tahourdin. The document dated 'Rochdale 11th. December 1828'. unknown

John Van Druten [John William Van Druten] (1901-1957), English playwright and theatre director [Walter James Macqueen-Pope (1888
John Van Druten playwright. Typed Letter Signed to theatre historian W. J. Macqueen-Pope with personal reminiscence and touching 'many points' including British 'old theatre' in Hollywood Dodie Smith J. T. Grein his theatre library.
5 October 1949. A. J. C. Ranch Thermal California. It is puzzling that Van Druten one of the most successful British playwrights of the early 1930s should not have an entry in the Oxford DNB. The present entertaining and informative letter is written from the A. J. C. Ranch in Coachella Valley which Van Druten purchased with his then-lover Carter Lodge and the British actress Auriol Lee it was named after the initals of their first names. Van Druten left his interest in the ranch to Lodge by then in a relationship with Dick Foote together with the rights to his work including his dramatic adaptation of his friend Christopher Isherwood's story 'I am a Camera'. See Isherwood's diaries and Peter Parker's biography of him. 2pp 8vo. Signed 'John van Druten'. A long letter closely typed. In fair condition on aged and creased paper with slight rust staining to corner of one leaf from paperclip. The letter begins: 'Dear Mr. Macqueen-Pope Your letter which came yesterday really cries for an answer to so many points.' He begins with a paragraph 'about the Kali Fizzing Towers' the song 'Old French Bonnet' and 'the bells of "Paree" not Calais'. The next paragraph concerns 'Dodie' i.e. Dodie Smith author of 'The Hundred and One Dalmations' and MP's book 'Twenty Shillings to the Pound'. He moves on to a discussion of the contents of 'the Agnes Platt book' which leads him to the critic and playwright J. T. Grein 1862-1935 who was a friend of Van Druten's father 'in his younger days: they came over from Holland more or less at the same time and shared lodgings somewhere in Shepherd's Bush. I never knew him in my childhood but his Sunday Times pieces were held up to me as models of dramatic criticism - and when I wrote my first one-act play at the age of 14 Father sent it to Grein who wrote back something nice about it.' He has for 'where it is situated' 'a fairly good theatre library' and describes some of its volumes enquiring whether one 'would be of any service to you in writing GHOSTS AND GREASEPAINT which I am very eager to read'. Another book which he offer to present to MP 'as a token of the very great pleasure your books have given me' is an American volume on Charles Frohman. The letter ends in personal reminiscence. He recalls that his 'own first theatre was ALICE IN WONDERLAND around 1906 with Marie Studholme - I think Seymour Hicks was the Mad Hatter - and Phyllis Bedells as the First Oyster. The first play I ever went to in the evening was THE BALKAN PRINCESS about which you write so much and so glowingly. And I think I remember almost everything I ever heard about the theatre from the age of four onwards.' After a reference to his 1935 autobiography he asks MP if he knows the words to the tearjerker 'Ring down the curtain I can't sing tonight' which is 'something my nurse used to sing to me'. In the penultimate paragraph he writes: 'A number of "lesser fry" from the old theatre turn up in America apart from the stars who have taken to Hollywood. Not long ago when casting a place there appeared Richard Temple who told me he was married to Evie Greene. And there are Margery Maude and Lydia Bilbrooke and Hazel formerly Kathleen Jones - and I am always able to give them their biographies when I meet them - sometimes to their slight embarrassment. Margery Maude told me when I informed her that I had seen her Titania with Tree in the production with the "real rabbits" - that the poor rabbits all died from licking the green paint of the hill-slopes. Did you know that' He feels that he 'could go on for ever' but must not 'exceed this page'. He concludes by declaring himself to be 'a very ardent awaiter of all the forthcoming books that you mention'. A postscript at the head of the first page reads: 'I do so agree with your description of London as lacking in "all standard and quality". The West End distressed me very badly this year.' 5 October 1949. A. J. C. Ranch, Thermal, California. unknown
