rif. 172871930s. Manuscript animation strip book. Graphite. Twenty-nine stapled leaves with a drawing to the recto of each some with narrative text in ink to verso. Very good condition with an old punch hole to the upper right corner the first and last three pages loose and minor wear to the extremities. The drawings remain clean and bright. A highly accomplished series of drawings similar to the style of Disney from the early days of British animation. Produced by a professional illustrator it tells the story of an adventurous young rabbit called 'Whiskers' who strays from the warren and is then tricked into the home of 'Sly Fox' who plans to make him into his dinner. Along then comes 'villain of the piece no.2 Slippery Stoat' who has similar plans. A fight ensues between the two during which Whiskers' father comes to his rescue. The manuscript appears to be a complete story in itself although could potentially have continued for another page or two. An uncommon draft for an early British animation the characterful drawings wonderfully convey the sense of movement of the finished cartoon.

1901rif. 6658Hartlepool; F W Mason 1901. Undated circa 1901. Poster approximately 77 cm x 51 cm. Single sheet with bold titles and underlining. Creases from folding and a little surface soiling; several small nicks to edge and 2 cm tear central upper edge with associated creasing and very minor loss. The main text is a series of questions posed at working class readers beginning with "Why should you be treated as if you are social outcasts". The background to the questions is the Intoxication Liquor Act of 1901 to limit Sunday opening of pubs and restrict their other opening times stated to be "an insult to every labouring man" and a "tyranny of the worst kind" as it would penalise those on small incomes unable to store supplies of alcohol in a cellar. The Bill was principally intended to prevent overly intoxicated working men from sending their children to the pub to buy them more drink. The poster encourages readers to oppose the Bill and sign a petition against it. Large ephemeral and unsurprisingly unrecorded. Hartlepool; F W Mason, unknown
