réf. 24533Letter: 12 November 1948. On letterhead of 2 Bristol Court West Marine Parade Brighton. CV undated but with autograph address 'Percy Nash / 2 Bristol Court West / Marine Parade. / Brighton. / Sussex'. From the Macqueen-Pope papers. See MP's entry in the Oxford DNB. Nash made around 70 films between 1912 and 1927 and was a key figure in the creation of Elstree Studios. His career as a film maker was effectively ended following the screening of his 1921 film 'How Kitchener was betrayed'. See Bernard Ince ' “For the Love of the Art”: The Life and Work of Percy Nash Film Producer and Director of the Silent Era’ ‘Film History’ September 2007. Both items in good condition lightly aged each with light rust staining at one corner from paper clip. LETTER: 1p 4to. Signed ‘Percy Nash’. He begins by stating that he has enjoyed 'immensely' MP’s ‘articles re the Theatre World’ as well as his book ‘Carriages at Eleven’. He continues: ‘I got quite a thrill when I read that you appreciated the dance in front of the Act drop in the “merry wives” production at His Majestys. I suggested the idea during rehearsals but Tree didn’t catch on to it at the time but when the Curtain was lowered and raised a dozen times at the end he screamed “Do what you wanted to do”. Naturally a thing like that required rehearsing but I risked it and luckily it came off all right.’ Although ‘past the age for personal publicity to attract me’ he is enclosing ‘a list of my various adventures in the World of Entertainment’. He will be happy to allow MP to consult his ‘good amount of data such as Programmes Private letters from many Stars of the bygone Firmament etc.’ TWO: Signed Typed CV: 2pp: the first a full single-spaced A4 page the second last five lines of typed text and autograph name and address on cut-down top part of A4 page now 1p landscape 8vo. Signed on p.2: ‘Percy Nash / 2 Bristol Court West / Marine Parade. / Brighton. / Sussex’. The list is headed ‘PERCY NASH. born December 5th 1868.’ Begins: ‘Began thetrical sic career as assistant at Theatre Royal Bournemouth in 1889. Whilst there Toured the West Country with John L. Toole The Gilbert and Sullivan Operas German Reeds George Grossmith on leaving the Savoy Theatre. Paderewski First Tour Sims Reeves and other famous Concert artistes.’ Contains the following: ‘Became a pioneer in the British Film World organised and Directed the first pictures for the original London Film Company. Built the first Film Studios at Elstree.

réf. 26224No date. On letterhead of 43 Cloth Fair London EC1. See his entry in the Oxford DNB. 1p 12mo. In fair condition but lightly discoloured with a large rectangle of sunning covering most of the lower part and a neat crease at bottom right not affecting the signature which is partially sunned. Annotated in pencil by a later hand on the reverse. Betjeman’s handwriting is bad so the following reading is tentative. ‘Dear Lady Jones / I meant to write to you long ere this to tell you how grateful I was to you & Sir Roderick Jones her husband for letting us house this prize in your capacious drawing room. I was grateful to you too for remembering our conversation at Old Billa’s Lady Wilhelmine Harrod wife of the economist Sir Roy Harrod in Oxford. I remember being impressed with it there & “that really exactly how I feel.”’ See IMage No date. On letterhead of 43 Cloth Fair, London EC1. hardcover
réf. 12476Ramsdon sic. 24 January 1822. 2pp. 12mo. In a windowpane mount on a leaf removed from an album. The letter itself very good on aged paper; the mount worn at extremities. He begins by informing the recipient that his 'last Letter has made ample atonement for the provocation of the preceding' and he has 'ever been the foremost both in word & deed to keep my wings in motion. I speak this seriously: my former note was only a temporary petulance'. The second paragraph begins: 'I must positively have another Paper for my Orators'. He has 'run to a fearful length & yet have cramped myself all the way. Besides what I enclose I shall have ready as much to forward in the shape of reflexion inferences &c before I enclose with my legal oratory. And then I have the Political Oratory on my hands'. He continues: 'I engage to bring Demosthenes upon the stage in a new manner & when I have him there I should like to shew him to as much advantage as I can'. The letter continues in the same vein with a postscript beginning: 'Let me hear as soon as you can that my time of gestation is extended.' Ramsdon [sic]. 24 January 1822. unknown
