Rawlins (Thomas J., fl.1837-1860) View of front of Alton Towers, Staffordshire, point of the brush, watercolour, heightened with white, pencil under-drawing, signed lower right, image 350 x 425 mm (13 3/4 x 16 3/4 in), under glass, minor spotting and surface dirt, framed, [1860]Illustrated:The Illustrated London News, April 21, 1860, p. 372Provenance:Collection of John and Eileen Harris*** The many Gothic Revival alterations and additions to Alton Towers were designed by Augustus Pugin (1812-1852), and carried out from 1837 until the time of his death In 1857. In 1859 the Alton Towers estate was inherited by the 18th Earl of Shrewsbury, who two years earlier had succeeded to the earldom. In celebration of his inheritance, the earl held a procession through Staffordshire in April 1860. Beginning in Uttoxeter, it stretched over a mile with up to 40,000 people in the grounds of Alton Towers at the end. It was presumably this event, which led The Illustrated London News to commission Rawlins to illustrate the Gothic Revival house for them in April 1860.Pugin is principally remembered for his pioneering role in the Gothic Revival style of architecture, and his work culminated in designing the interior of the Palace of Westminster in Westminster, London, and its renowned clock tower, the Elizabeth Tower (formerly St. Stephen's Tower), which houses the bell known as Big Ben.

Registration No: OPH 63 Frame No: RC16419 MOT: ExemptFitted with an electric startKnown to the Vincent Owner's ClubUsed recently by the current ownerA current V5C on fileThe Vincent Comet was one of four 499cc single models. As well as the sports Comet, Vincent produced a TT racing model, the Comet Special (a TT model with lights) and the standard Vincent Meteor, which shared many of the same cycle parts. The prototype Series A was refined and developed into a production model Series B, but after World War II it was the development of the Series C that represents the ultimate Vincent 500cc single.This 1950 Vincent Comet was purchased by the current vendor in 2013 from a friend of his. The vendor has described the Comet as a good usable machine that has not let him down since it has been in his ownership. It has been fitted with an Alton electric start for ease of starting. Previous work has been carried out, with receipts on file from the VOC spares scheme. Used by the current vendor until recently, it's now too heavy for him and he has decided to let someone else enjoy it. It should be noted that this Comet has non-matching numbers and the upper frame is from a 1950 Series C Rapide. It is offered with a current V5C, receipts for parts, some old MOT certificates, a parts book and a handbook. For more information, please contact: Mike Davis mike.davis@handh.co.uk 07718 584217
