rif. 15993Both 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

But the Reverend Dr. Bramley and his daughter were practically penniless, so he couldn't just turn them away.

2007(Negligent Chaperone Series) All of London is raving about the newly arrived American, Emilia Highhart. She has beauty, charm, wit, and a hint of the exotic. Unfortunately, grace is decidedly not one of her virtues. Staircases, doors, even floors have proven her enemies, often leaving Emilia prostrate and mortified in a pile of muslin. Nevertheless, at her first ball, her dance card soon fills with the names of highly suitable men. But Emilia's eyes are on just one man - the one her aunt points out as the entirely unsuitable Lord Phillip... In fact, he isn't Lord Phillip. While Phillip, the heir, goes about spending the good family's funds, his identical twin, Devon, the spare, must attend society functions as Lord Phillip - all because of a few blasted minutes' age difference. Soon, both twins are vying for Emilia. And, under the not-so-watchful eye of Lady Palmerston, aunt and chaperon to the young lady, Emilia is unknowingly courted by two different men with the same face! But only one of them is the love of her life... Book

rif. 26439Petition dated from London February 1833. Despite a recent book by Miles Macnair supporting Serre's claims the case for her imposture is overwhelming as her entry in the Oxford DNB demonstrates. See also the various reports of the matter for example Ryves v. Duke of Wellington Law Times 31 October 1846. 23pp. foolscap 8vo. On six loose bifoliums of laid paper with 1833 Britannia watermark of Gilling & Alllford. Good on lightly aged and worn paper. Folded into the customary packet and docketed on reverse of last leaf 'Copy Letter to the King from the Princess Olive'. Note that this is not how such a document would have been described had the recipient been a royal representative. Clearly a draft with a number of lacunae and a few emendations in another hand in pencil. The document and its ‘signature’ do not appear to be in Serres’ autograph: they do not resemble other examples consulted for example the manuscript offered for sale at Sotheby’s in London in July 2009. The few pencil annotations are in another hand and although more like are still not likely to be in her hand. Written in the year before Serres' death and apparently unpublished. The first page is headed 'A letter to the Kings Most Excellent Majesty' and begins; 'Sire The high opinion I wish to Cherish that your Majesty when truth claims your attention will do no wrong induces this public appeal to your justice for the consideration and redress of my unprecedented wrongs which I have from Year to yr patiently & degradingly submitted to rather than lay open to the English Nation the true Cause of the desertion and neglect of my late Royal Parents Relatives'. The document ends with the petition pp.21-23 headed: 'To the Kings Most Excellent Majesty The dutiful and humble petition of Olive Princess of Cumberland - London Feby 1833.' It begins: 'Sheweth That your Petr altho she is the legitimate Daughter & Sole Heir of his late Royal Highness Henry Frederick Duke off Cumberland by her Royal Highness Olive his first and lawful Wife is disposed of all her Birthrights except her rank & name of her late Royal Parents'. The petition claims that she 'lawfully proved in the prerogative Court in the month of June 1822' a 'Bequest of his late Majesty George. the 3rd of £15000'. Petition dated from London, February 1833. unknown
