Circle of George Jamesone (1589-1644). Portrait of Sir Henry St George (1581-1644), circa 1620-25, oil on canvas, three-quarter length portrait of a bearded gentleman dressed in a gilt-trimmed black doublet and hose, with a large lace ruff and lace-trimmed cuffs, his right hand in his pocket, and his left hand resting on a swept hilt rapier, armorial to upper right, 129 x 102 cm (50.75 x 40 ins), 19th century black and gold painted frame (142 x 115 cm) Provenance: Collection of Michael Stanhope Dormer (1930-2019), Bowdown House, Berkshire; thence by descent. Henry St George (1581-1644) was born at Hatley St George in Cambridgeshire, the eldest son of Sir Richard St George (1555-1635), a long-serving officer of arms at the College of Arms in London, and his wife Elizabeth St John (married 1575). He entered the College of Arms as Rouge Rose pursuivant-extraordinary in 1610, and was created Bluemantle pursuivant-in-ordinary in 1611 and Richmond herald in 1616, carrying out heraldic visitations throughout the country. In 1625 he travelled to France in order to escort Queen Henrietta Maria to England, and in 1627 he was sent to Sweden to invest King Gustavus Adolphus as a Knight of the Garter. He was knighted by the Swedish king, and granted an augmentation of honour consisting of the Swedish royal arms on a canton in his personal arms. Between 1633 and 1635 Henry St George acted as his father's deputy for the visitation of London, and following his father's death he was appointed Norroy King of Arms. In April 1639 he was suspended and fined by the Earl Marshal for forging his father's signature on a faked grant of arms, but was pardoned a year later. During the English Civil War he accompanied King Charles I to Oxford where he was created a Doctor of Medicine in May 1643 and appointed Garter Principal King of Arms in April 1644, a post he held for only a short time due to his death at Brasenose College, Oxford, in November 1644. Henry St George was buried in Christ Church Cathedral.

195 Hampshire. Norden (John), Hamshire, published by John Overton, London: 1595 - 1720, engraved map with near-contemporary outline colouring, large margins, 405 x 425 mm John Norden only succeeded in publishing five county maps in his lifetime. This was primarily due to the “Puritan tracts he wrote to raise money and his flattering dedication to Robert Devereux, the Earl of Essex, shortly before the uprising of 1599 set him so far out of political favour that he never received the patronage necessary to finance expensive surveys” (Globe). John Overton acquired the copper plates from Peter Stent’s widow, Susanna. Overton used these plates, plus others from Speed, Blaeu, Jansson, and William Smith, to publish ‘composite’ atlases in the Dutch style. These atlases are exceedingly rare, surviving in just four known examples.

This is one of the earliest and most important English maps, covering the southeastern part of England and dissected by the Thames River, with London prominently located near the top centre of the map. It is odd that Saxton chose to combine four of the most important counties of England into a single map. Kent, with Canterbury being the centre of the Church of England, Surrey and Middlesex bordering the capital, and Sussex with its maritime importance would all have warranted standing alone as individual maps. What persuaded Saxton to amalgamate these four counties into one map is something of a cartographic conundrum. (1) £700 - £1,000

248 Bible [English]. The Bible, that is, The holy Scriptures conteined in the Olde and Newe Testament, translated according to the Ebrew and Greeke, and conferred with the best translations in divers languages..., Imprinted at London [i.e. Amsterdam]: by the Deputies of Christopher Barker, 1599(?), lacking decorative general title, letterpress general title present (torn to margins and long closed tear), New Testament title within decorative woodcut border, colophon to Rrr4, few woodcut illustrations and decorative initials, double-column roman type, bound without Apocrypha (as often) and with metrical psalms, preliminary leaves bound out of sequence, Aa8 bound out of sequence, excessive trimming with one or two running titles shaved, frayed edges (heavy with slight text loss to T3-6, Aa2-7, Dd1-Ff7 and Gg4-5), small tear with few words of margin text lost to R1 and Hhh8, long closed tear to Mm4, small hole with few letters lost to Cc4, occasional rust holes and short closed tears, toning and scattered marks, some damp-staining, 17thcentury genealogy inscribed to Qq8 (blank), 19th-century brown calf, rubbed and worn, boards detached but present, lacking spine (fragments loosely inserted to volume), 4to (21 x 16 cm) Darlow & Moule 189; Herbert 249. Geneva version; with Thomson’s NT, but with Junius’ Revelation. The section containing the Apocrypha, though included in the list of books, was apparently omitted from all except a few copies. These Bibles were probably printed for English use in the Low Countries. There are many editions bearing this date, which while agreeing closely are yet distinct (some possibly published as late as 1640). This edition corrects some of the errors listed in Herbert 248 (e.g.: Isaiah 30:32 still has ‘beards’ for ‘harps’, but has corrected 36:12 to ‘doung’ from ‘thing’; Matthew 24:50 has no repeated line), and has the headline ‘Proverbers’ on Ee3 verso. Herbert 248 ‘is probably the earliest of these editions, as it abounds more than any others in gross errors. Perhaps printed at Amsterdam about 1599. Some of the copies have variant leaves.’ It can therefore be assumed that this volume was printed not long after, given that it also contains some of the same errors. This edition with Est[h]er 1:1 ‘seven and twen- | ty provinces.’ (1) £300 - £500

Thomas Graves (1725-1802) was promoted to Rear Admiral of the Red on 26th September 1780, and became commander-in-chief of the North American Squadron in April 1781 when Mariot Arbuthnot returned home. Graves was only commander-in chief briefly, as Digby was assigned to this position in June of the same year. However, the story goes that when Digby arrived in August to take up his new appointment he 'courteously' refused to assume command until Graves had made the attempt to relieve Cornwallis at Yorktown. The HMS London was Sir Thomas Graves' flagship at the Battle of the Chesapeake (5th September 1781). This important battle prevented the Royal Navy from reinforcing or evacuating the besieged British army of Lieutenant-general Lord Cornwallis at Yorktown, Virginia. After the defeat of the British line at Chesapeake, Graves then returned his battered fleet to New York, arriving off Sandy Hook on 20th September. After effecting repairs in New York, Graves sailed from New York on 19th October with 25 ships of the line and transports carrying 7,000 troops to make his second attempt at relieving Cornwallis too late, as it turned out. This copy of the Sailing and Fighting Instructions was therefore passed from Rear Admiral Graves to Rear Admiral Digby during that period when the fleet was being repaired at New York, after returning from Chesapeake and before setting forth again. A physical historical link to that strategically decisive battle that led to Cornwallis' surrender and ultimately the British acknowledgement of American independence. (1) £700 - £1,000

Cornwallis’, first leaf with section excised, few pages torn or excised, occasional light marks, sewing weakening in one or two places, contemporary vellum, manuscript title ‘Signal Book’ to upper cover, some soiling and discolouration, small 4to (19.5 x 15.5 cm), with few additional papers including a Sick List from 1779 Provenance: Sold by a member of the Cornwallis family. Admiral Sir William Cornwallis (1744-1819) was a British Royal Navy officer celebrated for his relentless stamina, tactical brilliance, and exceptional care for his crews, who affectionately nicknamed him ‘Billy Blue’. The brother of General Charles Cornwallis, William went to sea at age 11 and fought with distinction across the Seven Years' War and the American Revolutionary War. He was commander-in-chief of the Channel Fleet during the Napoleonic Wars. There are two written references to Cornwallis in the Signal Book, including ‘A List of Colours belonging to Cap. Cornwallis’, and ‘A List of Captain Cornwallis’s Colours at present on board the Prince Edward’ (Cornwallis commanded HMS Prince Edward from November 1764 to April 1766). It appears that the earliest Signal Book of Admiral Cornwallis held by the National Maritime Museum dates from 1779, so this – with the date 1760 to the front and the date 1779 in a marginal note towards the rear – predates those ones.

1. Darlow & Moule 1178; Herbert (D & M, rev. 1968) 1876. The Oxford edition of the Wycliffe Bible is the ﬁrst printed edition of his complete translation, whereas earlier printed editions included only the New Testament. It includes the earlier and later Wycliffe versions, which are printed here in parallel columns. John Wycliffe (circa 1330-1384) and his followers began translating the Bible from the Latin Vulgate in 1384. This act deﬁed the Catholic Church’s policy at the time, which prohibited making the entire Bible available in the vernacular language. Possessing Wycliffe’s translation became a crime. Wycliffe was posthumously declared a heretic and was a precursor to the Protestant Reformation. (6) £300 - £400

Belloste developed a novel treatment for complete scalp avulsions. His technique consisted of drilling the outer table of the cranium with an awl or trepan in many places close together to allow the diploe to reach the surface and create granulation tissue that would then allow regrowth of a fleshy covering of the head. Belloste’s technique was learned by the many Scottish physicians traveling to France and the Netherlands for medical training in the 18th century. Some of these surgeons then found their way to the New World, often as military surgeons, where the technique spread to the frontier (Katsevman, ‘Trepanation’, World Neurosurgery, 2021, p. 301).

Newly printed with additions by John Dunstall Anno 1661, [London]: Sould by Peter Stent, [circa 1750], copper engraved title (watermarked GR with a crown), 9 copper engraved plates (of 19) only, lettered d, g, f-h, l-m, o, t-u (without plates b, c, e, i, k, n, p, q, r, s,), plates f, g, m, o, t and u with Vryheyt watermark (Heawood 3149), title with lower outer blank margin replaced with later matching laid paper, plate t with three small closed tears repaired to margins (not affecting image), a few minor marginal closed tears and light soiling, bound with The Therd Booke of Flowers Fruicts Beastes Birds and Flies exactly drawne. With additions by John Dunstall, [London]: Are to be sould by P. Stent at the whit horse in Guiltspur street bewixt Newgate and Pye-Corner, [circa 1750], copper engraved title with date erased (with the same Vryheyt watermark), 16 copper engraved plates (of 19) only, numbered 3-6, 8, 10-13, 15-20 (without plates 2, 9 and 14), most plates with watermark GR with crown except plate 7 with Seven Provinces watermark (similar to Churchill 111 or 116), plate 7, 12, 16-17 and 20 with minor repairs to lower margin, plate 8 with more extensive overall repairs incorporating archival tissue (generally without loss), some minor soiling to a few plates, modern marbled boards with black morocco gilt title label to spine (modern endpapers), oblong small folio (sheet size 18.5 x 27.5 cm) A rare work, not known to survive in complete form. The British Library holds two copies of the ‘Second Booke’, while the Yale University Library and the National Trust, Swindon, England, each hold a single copy of the ‘Therd Book’ only. The work is listed in the ESTC under catalogue number R213196. The present copy includes both the second and third books. Only one copy, formerly owned by the preeminent American dealer in costumes and textiles, Cora Ginsburg, is known to have appeared at auction, where it sold for $13,500 at Northeast Auctions in August 2003. The Ginsburg copy comprised the title page of the ‘Therd Book’ together with 19 plates only. Of these, only eight plates properly belonged to this work, as the remaining nine were likely derived from other natural history publications advertised by Peter Stent. The present copy includes a total of 27 plates. In 1662 Peter Stent advertised a three-part work entitled A Booke of Flowers Fruicts Beastes Birds and Flies, in Three Parts, 20 leaves in each part. This work, first printed by G. Humble, was re-issued at least five times with additions by John Dunstall. Four different issues of this work have been identified, the latest dated 1734 (Globe, Peter Stent, pp. 140-141). This copy represents a different and later issue, as indicated by the paper watermarks (Vryheyt plus GR with a crown), which date from around 1750. This work was intended as a pattern book and instruction manual for needleworkers and embroideries of the period. ‘Stent’s pages are brim full of life; a microcosm of nature is found on every plate. As is characteristic of pattern books of this period, the motifs fill the pages, arranged at random with no respect to scale. (...) The images in Stent’s patterns can be connected most readily to motifs seen in embroidered pictures of the seventeenth century’ (Cora Ginsburgh and Donna Ghelerter, A Book of Flowers Fruits, Beasts, Birds, and Flies, Curious Works Press, 1995, pp. 6-7).

Despite its authoritative title, this Vade Mecum, first published in 1762, is not a detailed drawing manual but rather a fascinating cross section of the stock of the printseller and publisher Robert Sayer. ‘A compilation of engravings of approved subjects for copying including the human anatomy, copies after the Antique and the Old Masters (particularly Rembrandt and Watteau), landscapes, horses and racing scenes, animals, birds, and flowers’ (Bicknell and Munro, 70). In addition to serving the practical purpose of reissuing surplus sheets from earlier works, it functioned as an elaborate advertisement for the publisher’s business, the brief preliminary text noting that more substantial works were available for sale at the shop. A scarce work; ESTC records only two copies (Yale and UCLA). (1) £300 - £500

Although lacking Thomas Wright’s inventive genius, William Wrighte’s collection of grotesque follies - mosques, hermitages and the like, built of rustic materials, moss, branches, roots, thatch, even wool - had far greater impact, being the only pattern-book on the subject that was readily available and easily manageable, which Thomas Wright’s books certainly were not.’ (Harris).

CONDITIONS OF SALE AND BUSINESS 1. The Seller warrants to the Auctioneer and the buyer that he is the true owner or is properly authorised to sell the property by the true owner and is able to transfer good and marketable title to the property free from any third party claims. 2. (a) The highest bidder to be the buyer. If during the auction the Auctioneer considers that a dispute has arisen he has absolute authority to settle it or re-offer the lot. The Auctioneer may at his sole discretion determine the advance of bidding or refuse a bid, divide any lot, combine any two or more lots or withdraw any lot without prior notice. (b) Where goods are bought at auction by a buyer who has entered into an agreement with another or others that the other or others (or some of them) shall abstain from bidding for the goods and the buyer or other party or one of the other parties is a dealer (as defined in the Auction Biddings Agreement Act 1927) the buyer warrants that the goods are bought bona fide on joint account. 3. The buyer shall pay the price at which a lot is knocked down by the Auctioneer to the buyer (“the hammer price”) together with a premium of 22% of the hammer price. Where the lot is marked by an asterisk the premium will be subject to VAT at 20% which under the Auctioneer’s Margin Scheme will form part of the buyer’s premium on our invoice and will not be separately identified (the premium added to the hammer price will hereafter collectively be referred to as “the total sum due”). By making any bid the buyer acknowledges that his attention has been drawn to the fact that on the sale of any lot the Auctioneer will receive from the seller commission at its usual rates in addition to the said premium of 22% and assents to the Auctioneer receiving the said commission. 4. (a) The buyer shall forthwith upon the purchase give in his name and permanent address and pay to the Auctioneer immediately after the conclusion of the auction the total sum due. (b) The buyer may be required to pay down during the course of the sale the whole or any part of the total sum due, and if he fails to do so after such request the lot or lots may at the Auctioneer's absolute discretion be put up again and resold immediately. (c) The buyer shall at his own expense take away any lot or lots purchased no later than five working days after the auction day. (d) The Auctioneer may at his own discretion agree credit terms with a buyer and extend the time limits for collection in special cases but otherwise payment shall be deemed to have been made only after the Auctioneer has received cash or a sterling banker’s draft or the buyer's cheque has been cleared. 5. (a) If the buyer fails to pay for or take away any lot or lots pursuant to clause 4 or breaches any other condition of that clause the Auctioneer as agent for the seller shall be entitled after consultation with the seller to exercise one or other of the following rights: (i) Rescind the sale of that or any other lots sold to the buyer who defaults and re-sell the lot or lots whereupon the defaulting buyer shall pay to the Auctioneer any shortfall between the proceeds of that sale after deduction of costs of re-sale and the total sum due. Any surplus shall belong to the seller. (ii) Proceed for damages for breach of contract. (b) Without prejudice to the Auctioneer's rights hereunder if any lots or lots are not collected within five days or such longer period as the Auctioneer may have agreed otherwise, the Auctioneer may charge the buyer a storage charge of £1.00 + VAT at the current rate per lot per day. (c) Ownership of the lot purchased shall not pass to the buyer until he has paid to the Auctioneer the total sum due. 6. (a) The seller shall be entitled to place a reserve on any lot and the Auctioneer shall have the right to bid on behalf of the seller for any lot on which a reserve has been placed. A seller may not bid on any lot on which a reserve has been placed. (b) Where any lot fails to sell, the Auctioneer shall notify the seller accordingly. The seller shall make arrangements either to re-offer the lot for sale or to collect the lot and may be asked to pay a commission not exceeding 50% of the selling commission and any special expenses incurred in cataloguing the lot. (c) If such arrangements are not made within seven days of the notification the Auctioneer is empowered to sell the lot by auction or by private treaty at not less than the reserve price and to receive from the seller the normal selling commission and special expenses.

7. Any representation or statement by the Auctioneer in any catalogue, brochure or advertisement of forthcoming sales as to authorship, attribution, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price is a statement of opinion only. Every person interested should exercise and rely on his own judgement as to such matters and neither the Auctioneer nor his servants or agents are responsible for the correctness of such opinions. No warranty whatsoever is given by the Auctioneer or the seller in respect of any lot and any express or implied warranties are hereby excluded. 8. (a) Notwithstanding any other terms of these conditions, if within fourteen days of the sale the Auctioneer has received from the buyer of any lot notice in writing that in his view the lot is a deliberate forgery and within fourteen days after such notification the buyer returns the same to the Auctioneer in the same condition as at the time of the sale and satisfies the Auctioneer that considered in the light of the entry in the catalogue the lot is a deliberate forgery then the sale of the lot will be rescinded and the purchase price of the same refunded. "A deliberate forgery" means a lot made with intention to deceive. (b) A buyer's claim under this condition shall be limited to any amount paid to the Auctioneer for the lot and for the purpose of this condition the buyer shall be the person to whom the original invoice was made out by the Auctioneer. 9. Lots may be removed during the sale after full settlement in accordance with 4(d) hereof. 10. All goods delivered to the Auctioneer's premises will be deemed to be delivered for sale by auction unless otherwise stated in writing and will be catalogued and sold at the Auctioneer's discretion and accepted by the Auctioneer subject to all these conditions. In the case of miscellaneous books, the Auctioneer reserves the right to extract and dispose of books that, in the opinion of the Auctioneer at his absolute discretion, have no saleable value and, therefore, might detract from the saleability of the rest of the lot and the Auctioneer shall incur no liability to the seller, in respect of the books disposed of. By delivering the goods to theAuctioneer for inclusion in his auction sales each seller acknowledges that he/she accepts and agrees to all the conditions. 11. (a) Unless otherwise instructed in writing all goods on the Auctioneer's premises and in their custody will be held insured against the risks of fire, burglary, water damage and accidental breakage or damage. The value of the goods so covered will be the hammer price, or in the case of unsold lots the lower estimate, or in the case of loss or damage prior to the sale that which the specialised staff of the Auctioneer shall in their absolute discretion estimate to be the auction value of such goods. (b) The Auctioneer shall not be responsible for damage to or the loss, theft, or destruction of any goods not so insured because of the owner’s written instructions. 12. The Auctioneer shall remit the proceeds of the sale to the seller thirty days after the day of the auction provided that the Auctioneer has received the total sum due from the buyer. In all other cases the Auctioneer will remit the proceeds of the sale to the seller within seven days of the receipt by the Auctioneer of the total sum due. The Auctioneer will not be deemed to have received the total sum due until after any cheque delivered by the buyer has been cleared. In the event of the Auctioneer exercising his right to rescind the sale his obligation to the seller hereunder lapses. 13. In the case of the seller withdrawing instructions to the Auctioneer to sell any lot or lots, the Auctioneer may charge a fee of 12.5% of the Auctioneer's middle estimate of the auction price of the lot withdrawn together with Value Added Tax thereon and any expenses incurred in respect of the lot or lots. 14. The Auctioneer’s current standard notices and information (i.e. Collation and Amendments) will apply to any contract with the Auctioneer as if incorporated herein. 15. These conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English Law.
