1775réf. 36850London: Published by C. Shepherd 1775. Mezzotint. A fine impression of this early print of Charles Lee the famous General of the American Revolution. Public demand for portraits of Revolutionary heroes was not limited to America but spread to English and European print shops where an inquisitive audience clamored for a glimpse of the key figures of the war. Public interest reached such a frenzy that European printmakers published fictitious portraits before they had accurate likenesses of the sitters and thus many of the first English and European prints of Revolutionary colonials were completely invented. London publishers using the names C. Shepherd Thomas Hart and John Morris issued a series of mezzotints of the officers of the American Revolution none of which were taken from accurate portraits but rather were constructed on a visual formula and bore no resemblance to the individuals they claimed to be representing. Tomlinson's portrait of General Charles Lee is just such a portrait: the image bears little resemblance to contemporary accounts of his appearance and there is no record of him sitting for the artist. This portrait was executed and printed early in the war with the expectation that Lee would play a major role in the conflict an assumption based on his past military record in the French and Indian War. Although born in England Lee committed himself to the Patriot cause and soon became a leader in the Colonial army. He took part in the defense of Charleston and was a commander at the Battle of Monmouth. This is a fascinating early print of this Revolutionary general which not only records the practice of invented portraits but became a compositional model for other portraits of Revolutionary War heroes.

1931réf. 24327Singapore 1931. ALS from Norah Purcell from her address at 6 Ridley Park Singapore Straits Settlements dated 19.IX.31. She sends a deposit of 5 pounds for books to chosen by her or her husband Victor but expresses that she "was greatly displeased to receive 'abridged' editions of the two children's books ordered "The Wide Wide World" and "Queechy." When I asked for cheap copies to be sent I naturally expected they would be complete and from Ward Lock or Collins or Blackie - not the totally illiterate Herbert Strang who has been responsible for the present volumes which are almost unrecognisable." She goes on in this vein for two pages later complaining about "publishers who print fairy tales in mutilated form under the name of Hans Anderson and who take it upon themselves to put pink and white rubbish in place of Tenniel's illustrations - or even "Re-tell" Lewis Carrol! sic. Victor Purcell 1896-1965 was a British colonial public servant historian poet and Sinologist in Malaya now Malaysia. Susan Warner writing under the name of "Elizabeth Wetherell" wrote 30 novels. The Wide Wide World her first was the most popular. It was translated into several languages including French German & Dutch. Other than Uncle Tom's Cabin it was perhaps the most widely circulated story of American authorship. Wikipedia. She and her sister moved with their father to Constitution Island in the Hudson River after the financial Panic of 1837 teaching religion to West Point cadets. Her sister Anna was the author of song "Jesus Loves Me". 7x9" 2pp with date stamps and the bookseller's notations for the deposit account receipt number and various other notes. unknown
