JOHN GIBSON, QC John Alexander Lemon Gibson, QC, (1936-2009) outside of his legal profession had a number of interests which gave him much pleasure. He was born in Malaya and before Singapore fell to the invading Japanese forces early in 1942 he and his mother left to settle near family in New Zealand. His surveyor father, also a volunteer solider, however remained and spent the war in Changi as a prisoner of war. John’s interest in soldiers and ships appears to date from this period.

He read books about the stirring deeds of soldiers and sailors in various parts of the then British Empire and this passion remained with him all his life.

He was educated at St Peter’s in Cambridge, Wanganui Collegiate, and Victoria University of Wellington, from which he graduated with law degree.

His collecting, initially, was military badges which progressed into decorations and medals, including military and commemorative medals, and in the early 1960’s model soldiers and later ships, both naval and merchant. To some his collecting may appear somewhat random but that was far from the case.

There was his fascination with Scottish Regiments, in particular the Black Watch (42nd Highlanders) and the exploits of these regiments in various parts of the Empire; a passion for naval history, and a love of New Zealand military history. Inevitably, his collecting strayed into areas about which he had read or enjoyed and occasionally perhaps what may be referred to as unusual or ‘the quirky’ which appealed to his delightful sense of humour.

He acquired models from both within New Zealand and overseas and enjoyed friendships with some of the leading authorities and collectors. He established a reputation as a connoisseur and assembled a fine collection and associated library of reference material. He studied books on uniforms and often spent many happy hours painting or repainting figures and other models.

John’s wife, two sons and daughters, and in later years grandchildren, did not share his love of and passion for collecting but were content that the father they much loved was happy. They all, however, enjoyed John’s other passion for sports especially cricket which he played during school days and later in several Wellington teams. In 1994 he was manager of the New Zealand Cricket Team and during 2001-03 was President of Wellington Cricket.

It was normal for John to display in his office objects which reflected his collecting and associated interests. On his office walls there were prints of model soldiers examples of which also appeared on his desk among the model ships, medallions, and a cricket ball.

This extensive collection now being sold reflects John’s interests. There is a model of a Barrister in ‘court dress’, several sporting figures but alas none reflecting his interest in cricket!
