Gladys Cooper [Dame Gladys Constance Cooper] (1888-1971), English actress, over seven decades a star of stage and screen; Dennis
Gladys Cooper star of stage and screen. Gelatin silver print of Foulsham & Banfield photograph of Gladys Cooper in the play ‘My Lady’s Dress’ with a second photograph of her embracing Dennis Eadie in the same production.
Label on reverse dates the solo photograph to 27 February 1914 with the stamp of Foulsham & Banfield 49 Old Bond Street W. London. The photograph of Cooper & Eadie without date or place but from the same production. Edward Knobloch’s play ‘My Lady’s Dress’ ‘in which’ as one newspaper wrote at the time ‘the heroine’s dream takes her to the foreign and London scenes surrounding the manufacture of a costly gown’ premiered at the Royalty Theatre in London in 1914 and was revived several times through the 1920s. Although neither of these photographs is among the five Foulsham & Banfield portraits of Cooper in the National Portrait Gallery collection the second one Cooper and Eadie embracing is present among the seven unattributed scenes from the 1914 production in the Victoria & Albert Museum collection ‘Given to the Gabrielle Enthoven Collection by L.E. Berman’. Both of the present items are black and white gelatin silver prints. Dimensions are approximate. ONE: Cooper seated on a chair in front of a window and beside a table hands clasped in her lap looking mournfully at the viewer in dotted smock worn over plaid dress with lace collar and crocheted Welsh-style shawl. HEIGHT: 30.5 cm. WIDTH: 21 cm. In fair condition lightly aged with slight wear and chipping at edges and one very small closed tear at head beside ‘5/-’ which appears to be part of the print. Written in pencil on reverse: ‘Miss Cooper as Annette / Act I. Sc 3.’ Also label with ink note: ‘My Lady’s Dress / Royalty / Feb 27 1914’ and the stamp of Foulsham & Banfield 49 New Bond Street. TWO: The Victoria and Albert description reads as follows: ‘Photographic print of Act III Scene 3 of a production of My Lady's Dress at the Royalty Theatre 23rd April 1914. The photograph features a full length image of Miss Cooper as Anne and Mr Eadie as John they are standing together embracing and are gazing towards one another.’ He wears a dressing gown and she is in a rather splendid Pre-Raphaelite-style dress. Height: 26.5 cm. Width: 20.5 cm. Adhering to the reverse are the remains of a grey paper mount and no details are given. In good condition lightly aged. See Image. Label on reverse dates the solo photograph to 27 February 1914, with the stamp of Foulsham & Banfield, 49 Old Bond Street, W. [L unknown

[English woodblock engraving; woodcuts; Georgian fine printing]:
Alchemy Ten printer's specimens copies of curious alchemical woodblock engravings from the 'Hortus Sanitatis' and other early sources with captioned title and price.
Undated: early nineteenth century. On one side each of two leaves of thin laid paper quality of tissue. Both leaves are good: lightly creased and spotted on aged paper. The first leaf roughly 19 x 18 cm carries six illustrations arranged 2 x 3 and with the captions reading: 'Price 2s/6d a way of purifying sea water'; 'Price 1s/6d preparation Acid Sulphuric'; 'Price of block 1s/- Physician Galenical School'; 'Price 1/- cold still'; 'Price 1/- Pelican'; '2s/6d distillation'. Printers blue pencil around third woodcut. The second leaf roughly 24 x 18.5 cm carries four illustrations arranged 2 x 2 the largest two being roughly 8 x 6 cm. The captions read: 'Bufonites' from the 'Hortus Sanitatis' of 1497 showing a man extracting a bezoar stone from the head of a frog; 'preparation medicinal earths'; 'obtaining draconites' and 'Hippocrates sleeve'. Along one margin: 'Please return specimens'. The 'Bufonites' engraving is certainly a skillful copy and it may be that the cuts were originally produced for a Roxburghe-Club-type publication before joining the printer's stock. Undated: early nineteenth century. unknown

S. & J. Fuller, printsellers, 34 Rathbone Place, London [English social history; Georgian fashion; Regency London]:
Georgian London. Two lithographic engravings: companion pieces both headed 'Casualties of London Street Walking' and titled 'A Faint Impression' and 'A Strong Impression' showing the fine clothes of fashionable figures sullied by street hawkers.
Both engravings published on 2 October 1826 by S. & J. Fuller 34 Rathbone Place London. The two engravings in good condition with light signs of age and with 'A Faint Impression' with some offsetting in light pink not entirely displeasing. Both headed above the image 'Casualties of London Street Walking' with the title and publication details below the image. ONE: 'A Faint Impression.' Dimensions: image 23.5 x 18.5 cm; plate 27 x 20 cm; paper 29 x 22 cm. A fight outside a hat shop between two boys one holding a tray of meat and the other a wooden board with food and drink results in the light soiling of the clothes of an indignant middle-aged couple the man in top hat whiskers and breeches and the woman in bonnet and frills. The amused milliner looks on from the doorway of his shop. TWO: 'A Strong Impression.' Dimensions: image 24 x 19 cm; plate 27.5 x 21.5 cm; paper 28.5 x 22.5 cm. A confrontation in front of a printshop between a chimneysweep and a boy selling pies has more serious consequences for another couple more sharply dressed than the last. The gentleman in cutaway jacket has his trousers badly soiled by the falling chimneysweep's bag of soot while the lady receives a bag of pies in the face from the other boy. Two gentlemen and the printseller look on horrified. Uncommon: the only copies found are coloured ones in the Guildhall Library London and London Metropolitan Archives. See Image sl. too large for scanner. Both engravings published on 2 October 1826 by S. & J. Fuller, 34 Rathbone Place, London. hardcover

An introductory page titled ‘The Dreamer of Devon’ and a page discussing ‘Some key dates in the life of Henry Williamson’ are followed by two sets - one plain and the other with manuscript additions also in red ink - of eleven ‘BIOG PANELS’ mini essays on aspects of Williamson’s life with titles: ‘Early days’ ‘The First World War’ ‘Move to Georgeham in North Devon’ ‘The early twenties’ ‘The Hawthornden Prize’ ‘Shallowford days’ ‘The Norfolk farm’ ‘Return to Devon’ ‘Ancient sunlight’ ‘Last days’ and ‘L’envoi’. She explains the original purpose of these eleven essays in a pencil note: ‘The following pages were based on Display Boards normally accompanied by about fifty photographs and used for Exhibition purposes. Thus they are only a broad outline and bland in content. They are offered as a useful background. NB. The display panels were blown up to A3 & encapsulated in plastic.’ Also present in addition to these two sets is an earlier draft of the eleven-page section with duplicate pages and a few variations thereof totalling 64pp. Undated [1970s?]. From Anne Williamson's West Sussex address. hardcover

Fred Grubb [Frederick Grubb] (born 1930), English poet [Derek Stanford (1918-2008), English writer; 1960s Hampstead coterie]:
Four Typed Letters Signed and two Autograph Cards Signed from the Hampstead poet Frederick Grubb one in full four 'Fredk G' and one 'Comrade G' to the critic Derek Stanford including a virulent attack and with two other items signed by Grubb.
1973 and 1974; most from 243 Haverstock Hill Hampstead. All items clear and complete on aged paper. Letters totaling: 4to 1 p; landscape 8vo 5 pp. The two cards carry long messages written in red ink in Grubb's close neat hand; one is standard size the other 27 x 13.5 cm. Five envelopes are stapled to their letters. Grubb 'one of the last survivors of the famous 1960s Hampstead coterie of writers actors and critics' writes entertainingly in an emphatic energetic manner marvellously evocative of the 1970s London literary scene. Grubb mounts an extraordinarily savage attack on Stanford after sending him two pages of publicity material relating to a 1973 'Benefit for Chilean Workers & Refugees. Pablo Neruda Memorial Reading' one page signed by Grubb and the other with autograph note by him reading 'Fuck the dim and mawkish 1890's - what's needed is the vital spirit of the 1930's and 1970's!' Grubb's comment on the 1890s - a subject on which Stanford was an authority - elicits a mocking christmas card from the critic containing the comment 'Do not "Fuck the Nineties" - a misplaced piece of virility when there are so many Women's Lib vaginas ready to provide a more suitable receptacle.' A furious Grubb replies December 1973: 'I do not invite an acquaintance to donate to a fund in order to get insulted myself and worse to see my cause vilified by third-rate quips. . I am amazed by your casual assumption that beliefs of deep significance to somebody can be gibed at in your petty way. Then I recall that as a typical English conformist and opportunist you just can not see or understand anything beyond the narrow horizon of your complacency and comfords. . you are among the more servile corrupter dunces I've bumped into. Drop dead and I wouldn't spit on your grave let alone put on a Memorial Reading.' In a postscript Grubb responds directly to the 'Women's Lib' comment stating that he wouldn't introduce his 'delightful and bright if non-puritan Hungarian Communist Party girl' to 'scum like you hardened in vulgarity and cynicism. You boasted - "I write in Tribune for the free tickets". Not because you believe in any cause. I detest hypocrites.' In a long letter of 'Dec/Jan 1974' headed 'Kremlin' Grubb attempts at reconciliation. 'My remarks were never aimed to hurt. It's simply that as a Marxist in a deeply reactionary conformist and conventional society . I've found that the only way to get anything to "register" to rub off on the bourgeois is by absolute polemical force a thorough kick in the arse.' Other topics include: a long discussion of Philip Larkin's 'largely iniquitous anthology' 'The Oxford Book of Twentieth Century English Verse': 'Frankly I didn't "expect" to be in the anthology I can't imagine any qualifying poem! but that doesn't prevent me from agreeing largely with your strictures . Larkin's worst crime in my view is to chicken out of an ideocritical Preface whereby even Yeats had the courage to try to justify his eccentricities.' Grubb's political position: 'I'm NOT a Leavisite never have been. No Marxist could be! . Frankly you've got an obsession with Leavis. When I agree with him it's usually to my own surprise!' The present political situation: 'I hope to find in the Soviet Union a more morally and culturally vital and committed society than in England where free love may exist without prostitution and Heath and Thatcher don't prate about "standards and values and education" while Lambton Harrovian & Jellicoe Etonian pay prostitutes £500 a night when the money should go to the homeless the exploited the unemployed the W.E.A. etc.' Also included is a photocopied page with three newspaper cuttings with initialed note by Grubb to 'Comrade Stanford'. One of the cuttings is of a letter by Grubb to The Times 10 December 1973 attacking W. H. Auden's later period. In a postcard January 1974 Grubb defends his position on 'The betrayal in late Auden' 'duplicity of tone dodgy values artificial versification trite and willed subjects'. In the last letter 31 May 1974 Grubb refers to his 'edition of Roberts's poetry and criticism for Carcanet to join their eds. of Rickwood Hamburger and Edwin Morgan. I may or may not be allowed to include Cornford and Bell with Roberts. These 1930's people are the best: nothing like it has happenned sic since.' Grubb's politics are to the fore throughout: he refers to Lenin as 'our leader and teacher' sends a couple of letters from the 'Revolutionary H.Q.' and signs another off 'For the total destruction of the Tory party of the British capitalist class of all genteel compalcency and the transformation of man and of life. Red front!' 1973 and 1974; most from 243 Haverstock Hill, Hampstead. unknown

Edmund Gwenn Edmund John Kellaway 1877 1959 English actor who worked with Alfred Hitchcock and won an Oscar for his role as Kri
Kris KrinEdmund Gwenn English actor won an Oscar for 'Kris Kringle' in the Hollywood film 'Miracle on 34th Street'. Three Autograph Letters Signed to 'Mr. Stuart' in one describing Henry Irving as the actor who impressed him most.
21 23 and 26 January 1939. The first from the University Arms Hotel Cambridge; the other two from the Royal Albion Hotel Brighton. The three letters in good condition lightly aged tipped-in onto a leaf removed from an album. The first 1p 12mo; the other two each 1p 8vo. All three signed 'Edmund Gwenn'. In the first he thanks him for his 'great courtesy during my visit' and for reproducing 'that old programme'. In the second letter he acknowledges 'a further proof of your kindly interest' received at his hotel after sending his first letter. The article was 'extremely interesting' as was 'the Photograph of Irving in his robes' a copy of which he asks to purchase. Stuart evidently makes a present of the photograph as the third letter begins: 'This is really noble of you! I have a great veneration for Irving & shall treasure the "pulls" enormously. I was lucky enough to see him in all his principal roles & have never seen another actor who impressed me so.' He reports 'appaling weather here' adding 'otherwise your native county has done us proud'. He continues before concluding with renewed thanks: 'We journey to London on Sunday & open at the Saville on Thursday. I hope the Fates will be kind.' 21, 23 and 26 January 1939. The first from the University Arms Hotel, Cambridge; the other two from the Royal Albion Hotel, Brig unknown
