SIR WINSTON CHURCHILL INTEREST: A SIGNED CUBAN CIGAR BOX the lid affixed with an oil painting by George Horace Davis (1881-1963) titled 'The "Atlantic Charter" Voyage. August 1941', signed lower left, the ship depicted is the HMS Prince of Wales, 12cm square, beneath the oil the box bears the signature of Sir Winton Churchill (1874-1965), dated 1942, a guarantee is affixed to the underside of the lid, the box overall measures 12.5cm high x 17.5cm wide x 18cm deepNote: A small number of these cigar boxes appear to have been produced, variously painted by Davis and all signed by Churchill. Some boxes appear to have been gifted and others sold by auction at Christie's, to raise funds for the Red Cross. An Australian newspaper, The Barrier Miner, dated December 3rd 1942, records one box in the Red Cross sale reaching £318. The Christie's Red Cross sales contained numerous donations from political figures and royalty with the money raised to support the war effort. A British Pathé newsreel, available on YouTube, records the significance of the gifts and the success of the sales. The Atlantic Charter voyage was the long and daring journey taken by Churchill to meet with the American President Franklin D. Roosevelt aboard anchored ships in Placentia Bay, Newfoundland. The meeting led to the Atlantic Charter, a declaration outlining the joint war aims of the United States and the United Kingdom. Churchill travelled across the Atlantic on board HMS Prince of Wales, which was sadly destroyed in action shortly afterwards.
λ OLIVER MESSEL (BRITISH 1904-1978) STUDY OF MICA ERTEGUN Oil on canvas, laid to board 74 x 61cm (29 x 24 in.) Unframed Provenance: Direct from the artist By descent to Thomas Messel, the artist's nephewMica Ertegun was a Romanian-American philanthropist and, like Messel, an accomplished interior designer, co-founding the extant firm MAC II in 1967. She donated widely to cultural causes, including humanities teaching at the University of Oxford, restoration efforts in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, and the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, New York. In 1993, Ertegun was inducted into the Interior Design Hall of Fame; in 2011, Ertegun was appointed CBE by Queen Elizabeth II. In the 1970s, Ertegun visited Messel in Barbados, where she sat for this portrait (see University of Bristol Theatre Collection OHM/2/5/8). It is a testament to Messel's taste that Ahmet Ertegun, Mica's husband and the co-founder of Atlantic Records, chose the Oliver Messel Suite at the Dorchester Hotel as his London base (Robert Greenfield, The Last Sultan: The Life and Times of Ahmet Ertegun (2012), p. 208).

It was based on Austin A90 Atlantic mechanicals and sported a notably sleek body designed by Gerry Coker and built by Tickford. It was dubbed the 'Healey Hundred' (a moniker chosen to reflect the car's ability to reach the magic 100mph), and, subject to a suitably encouraging response, Healey planned to build production versions in-house at his factory in Warwick. As things transpired, not only did the Ice Blue prototype more than impress the public, but it also excited Austin's Managing Director, Leonard Lord, so much that he struck a deal to build the car in volume at Longbridge. The newcomer was renamed the Austin-Healey 100/4. The rest, as they say, is history.The 100/4's chassis was a departure from the company's previous backbone designs and comprised a pair of three-inch square box-section side members running the length of the car, some 17 inches apart. These were braced by parallel and cruciform cross-members to which the steel floor pressings were attached. After the first 25 cars had been constructed at Healey's own premises in Warwick, the production of the mainstream bodyshells was turned over to Jensen. Once complete, the shells were transported to Longbridge, where the Healeys were assembled alongside the A90.As part of his tireless publicity campaign to promote the newly introduced Austin-Healey 100/4 BN1, Donald Healey entered a team of four pre-production cars for the 1953 Le Mans 24-hour race. Running with standard windscreens, interiors and even bumpers, two of this mildly tweaked quartet survived to finish 12th and 14th overall (an amazing result for such comparatively inexpensive cars in near showroom condition). Eager to capitalise on this success (and also to comply with the event's homologation requirements) Healey persuaded BMC to list a 'Le Mans kit' (twin 1.75 inch SU carburettors, high-lift camshaft, revised distributor advance curve and stronger valve springs etc) in its parts catalogue for 1954. Known officially as part P-280, it was available to fit on new or old models alike, and by dealers or private individuals. A handful of BN1 100s were to be delivered from Longbridge directly to the Donald Healey Motor Co. to be fitted with the 'Le Mans Modification Kit' when new; but upon launch of the BN2 it was to be adopted by BMC themselves for the 100M version and subsequently introduced at the 1955 London Motor Show. The upgrade has remained a popular modification package ever since and continues to be reproduced today.According to the accompanying Heritage Certificate, chassis BN1/223802 was built on 8th February 1955 in right-hand drive configuration for the Australian market. It is said to have all the hallmarks of a car that was uprated to ‘Le Mans’ specification at Donald Healey’s Warwick factory rather than being modified (either in period or more modern times) by a dealer or private individual. The requisite ‘telltales’ apparently being: a bend in the shroud bracket to clear the cool air box, aluminium louvred bonnet (crafted by Jensen cars) and hand etched numbering to the uprated SU carburettors etc. Seemingly shipped to the Bahamas when new (rather than Sydney), the 100 is further understood to have participated in that year’s Nassau Speed Week. Sadly, there are no reliable records to confirm its participation. The Big Healey is understood to have had a damaged rear end and have been repainted British Racing Green over Yellow when it was found by Dr Pryor whilst holidaying in the Bahamas during 1957. The vendor believes there is a chance that BN1/223802 was diverted to Nassau at the behest of Sir Sydney and Lady Greta Oakes who were prominent members of the Caribbean racing scene at the time and friends with Donald Healey.Repatriated by Dr Pryor in 1958 and issued with the Croydon registration number ‘URK 397’, he took the two-seater off the road following an accident in which his daughter was injured but retained possession until 1971. First owned by the vendor from 1980-1985 during which time he had it restored and repainted in its original Ice Blue over Old English White colours, the 100 later passed to Tony Elshof who previously served as the Austin-Healey Club’s Competitions Secretary and amassed a collection of significant examples of the marque. Changing hands several times thereafter, including a sojourn in France, ‘URK 397’ was reacquired by the seller during 2018. Entrusted to Rose’s Garage and Bushell’s Vehicle Restorations for servicing and maintenance since then, the Big Healey is deemed to be in ‘very good overall’ mechanical condition. Running and driving well during our recent photography session, the improved BN2 four-speed manual gearbox and gearlever-operated overdrive were both a boon. Although no longer concours, the two-seater remains presentable. Potentially eligible for such prestigious events as the Mille Miglia Storica, ‘URK 397’ is offered for sale with extensive history file, spare wheel, hood, tonneau cover and spare parts (the original, very rare distributor vacuum unit and the original cylinder head). It will also be accompanied by the V5C Registration Document.i For more information, please contact: Lucas Gomersall lucas.gomersall@handh.co.uk 07484 082430
An inter-War S.G.M. group of three awarded to Assistant Steward G. S. Bruce, S.S. Aztec, Mercantile Marine, for his gallantry in rescuing the crew of the schooner Ria in the North Atlantic Ocean, 16 November 1931 Sea Gallantry Medal, G.V.R., bronze (George Scott Bruce “Ria”. 16th. November 1931.); Liverpool Shipwreck and Humane Society, Marine Medal, 3rd type, bronze (To George S. Bruce. For Gallant Service. 16/11/31.) with integral top riband bar; Shipwrecked Fishermen and Mariners Royal Benevolent Society, silver (G. Bruce S.S. “Aztec” - Schr. “Ria” November. 16. 1931.) with ‘double dolphin’ riband bar and top silver riband buckle, about extremely fine (3) £500-£700 --- S.G.M. London Gazette 30 June 1933: George Scott Bruce, Assistant Steward, S.S. Aztec (in a joint citation with seven others): ‘In recognition of their services to the Newfoundland schooner Ria on the 16th November 1931. The men mentioned manned a lifeboat from the S.S. Aztec, and were successful in taking off the shipwrecked crew of six hands from the schooner, in adverse weather conditions.’ The Board of Trade records state: ‘On the night of 16 November 1931, the Newfoundland schooner Ria, of St. John’s, was in distress in the North Atlantic Ocean. For several days the vessel had encountered stormy weather, which had carried away the sails, and, by 16 November, the Ria was leaking badly. Her signals of distress were observed about 9.30 p.m. by the S.S. Aztec, of Bristol, which altered course towards her. A rough sea, with a high confused swell, was running and the wind was blowing at gale force; and in view of the unfavourable conditions, the Master of the schooner did not expect a rescue to be attempted before daylight. The Aztec, however, at once took up a position to windward in order to launch a lifeboat. Difficulty was experienced and several oars were lost or broken sending away a lifeboat. Further difficulty was encountered in getting the boat alongside the Ria, but the distressed crew of six hands was eventually taken off and transferred to the Aztec.’ The Shipwrecked Fishermen and Marines Royal Benevolent Society Records state: ‘The S. S. Aztec (Captain E. H. Brice) left Avonmouth on 9 November 1931. Heavy weather was experienced on 16 November. At 9:30 p.m. in latitude 35.58N and longitude 38.10W, a vessel burning distress signals was observed. Course was altered to investigate and at 10:00 p.m. the vessel was stopped alongside the three-masted schooner Ria, bound from Cadiz to Groundbank, Newfoundland, with a cargo of salt, that had been drifting derelict for seventeen days, having lost all sails and suffered considerable damage, and also leaking badly. Food and water was almost exhausted, and the crew had suffered considerable hardship.
At 10:00 p.m. a boat manned by a volunteer group of eight was launched Some difficulty was encountered when the boat arrived alongside the schooner, owing to the vessel being unmanageable in a strong northerly wind, rough sea, and high confused swell. The crew, consisting of six, including the Master, were eventually taken off, having set fire to the derelict to prevent her becoming a danger to navigation. At 11:45 p.m. the boat returned to the ship and was hoisted. The Schooner was well afire before leaving.’ George Scott Bruce served as an Assistant Steward in the S.S. Aztec, but died in Bristol Royal Infirmary after suffering major injuries after falling 50 feet into the hold of the S.S. Patuce in Avonmouth Docks just days before he was due to travel to London to be presented with his Sea Gallantry Medal by H.M. King George V. He is buried in Arno’s Vale Cemetery, Bristol. His Sea Gallantry Medal was subsequently presented to his father at Dundee on 24 March 1934.

A Q- Ship Casualty Group awarded to Stoker 1st Class David Arthur Collingham. H.M.S. Bergamot, Killed in Action when Bergamot was sunk by U-84 on the 13th of August 1917 comprising 1914-1920 British War and Victory Medals, (K.28401 D.A. Collingham. Sto. 1. R.N.), toned fine (2)HMS Bergamot was an Anchusa-class sloop of the Royal Navy, which had a short career during World War I. Built by Armstrong Whitworth, the ship was laid down on 1 January 1917, launched on 5 May, and commissioned on 14 July.Four weeks later, on 13 August 1917, under the command of Lieut-Commander Percy T. Perkins, she was sunk in the Atlantic 70 nautical miles north-west of the harbour of Killybegs by the German submarine U-84, commanded by Walter Rohr.U-84s War Diary describes how he sighted a lone merchant ship, with no defensive armament (an unusual sight by 1917). Bergamot evidently sighted the U-boat's periscope, as she began to zig-zag at high speed. U-84 fired one torpedo – which hit on the port side – and Bergamot broke in half and sank in four minutes. Surfacing, U-84 sighted an unusually large number of crew (70) and pieces of wood floating. The U-boat's log identifies the possibility of Bergamot being a "trap ship". One of the indicators being the narrow beam in relation to the length of the ship, a sure sign of a warship.The torpedo struck her on the port side at 13 minutes to 9, entering the auxiliary engine room and destroying the dynamo and the bulkhead separating the auxiliary engine room from the main engine room. All the lights went out. Bergamot launched a "panic party" in lifeboat no.1, containing 31 men, but the ship lurched to port, both the bow and stern rising out of the water, and she sank too quickly for the ruse to be successful.U-84 approached Lifeboat no. 2 and asked where the captain was. They were told, "In the other boat, Sir" although actually he was on a small raft being towed by no.2 at the time. U-84 had both her deck guns trained on the lifeboat, but they believed the story and headed for lifeboat no. 1, now about two miles away. There, they went close alongside and hauled the ship's steward aboard, probably because he was the only one with a collar and tie on, and looked like an officer. Luckily, he stuck to the cover story, although questioned severely by Rohr as to "where bound, what cargo?" and was told to go back to his lifeboat, after having been given a glass of port wine and a cigarette, and after also transferring a wounded man that the submarine had picked up to the boat. With a cheery, "See you after the war!" the submarine disappeared into the night mists.At the moment of the explosion, Bergamot's first officer, Lieutenant Frederick W. Siddall, and her probationer surgeon, Robert S. Smith were both in her wardroom. The explosion jammed both of the watertight doors leading into this compartment, and Siddall was rendered unconscious. Smith piled the wrecked wardroom furniture up in order to reach the skylight in the roof, and then dragged the unconscious Siddall up and out of the compartment. Having reached the main deck, Smith worked on both Siddall and a wounded petty officer, who was lying on the deck with a broken leg and arm. By this time the ship was clearly sinking so Smith inflated his casualties life vests and lowered them both into the water.As Bergamot sank one of her depth charges exploded, badly wounding Siddall and again rendering him unconscious. Smith towed both his casualties to lifeboat no.2, which had left the sinking ship, containing 47 survivors, and then worked on Siddall for 25 minutes, administering artificial respiration, until he again recovered consciousness. Smith then treated the other injured survivors in no.2 over the 48 hours that the lifeboats were adrift until they were picked up. For these lifesaving actions, Surgeon Robert Sydney Steele Cathcart Smith was awarded the Albert Medal.The lifeboats became separated through the first night. Lifeboat no.2 set course for Loch Swilly, about 100 miles away, They sailed and rowed for three days before being picked up by the Admiralty trawler Lord Lister. Lifeboat no.1 reached the rocky shores of County Donegal where they were taken ashore by the coastguard.David Arthur Collingham was born on the 19th of March 1884 in Lincolnshire he joined the Royal Navy on the 21st of October 1915 stating that he was an Iron Founder. He joined Bergamot on the 14th of July 1917 and was Killed in Action on the 13th of August the same year. He was the son of Hannah Collingham of 32 Old Bargate, St Botolph’s, Lincoln, he is commemorated on the Plymouth Naval Memorial on Panel 22.Sold with an excellent file of 9 original pieces of Paperwork including the Original Royal Navy Telegram to Hannah Collingham stating:-“I regret to have to inform you that information had been received by this Department to the effect H.M.S.

It is reported, however, that one or two Officers or men were recovered from the water by the enemy submarine.

Liverpool Shipwreck and Humane Society, Marine Medal, 2nd type oval medal with ‘Liver Bird’ suspension, reverse inscribed ‘John Park A.B., S.S. Batavia, 16 Dec. 1872’, additionally inscribed on the edge, ‘For great courage & humanity in going in the boat in a heavy gale & rescuing 9 of the crew of the Charles Ward abandoned 20. Nov. 1872’, edge bruises, otherwise good very fine £500-£700 --- The Liverpool Shipwreck and Humane Society records state:
‘For a most gallant and seaman-like rescue of nine survivors of the crew of the “Charles Ward” which was dismasted and about to be torn to pieces by the fearful violence of the winds and waves in the Atlantic on the 20th November 1872. The weather was so bad that they could not hoist up the lifeboat after the rescue and it had to be abandoned.’ John Park was serving as Able Seaman aboard the Cunard liner S.S. Batavia on her last voyage to Boston when she was alerted to the plight of the Charles Ward, of Newcastle, which was foundering a mid-Atlantic gale. The Liverpool Albion of 14 December 1872 describes the scene: ‘At 4 p.m. a dismasted vessel was sighted. A furious squall had just broken upon us, and the sea was running mountains high, to use the popular expression. Nevertheless, Capt. Moreland immediately bore up to the wreck, which was making signals of distress, ordered out a life boat and called out for volunteers. To a landsman it seemed like deliberate suicide to go out in such a storm, but our third and fourth officers and eight men answered the call with a promptness that compelled a cheer. The wreck, a barque, was in a pitiful condition. Her main-mast was naked; her mizzen-mast and her bowsprit were gone, and her foremast was but a stump wreathed and cumbered with a ruin of sails and cordage... We could see nine men clinging to the main rigging.’ The rescue was effected over an hour, one man at a time, using a line and buoy in treacherous seas. Once aboard the Batavia it was noted: ‘They had been in the main rigging some thirty-one hours, without food or water, and were so frozen and exhausted that they could hardly speak and the minds of several were wandering’. The Charles Ward sank the following morning; for their bravery, the crew of the lifeboat received silver medals and Captain Moreland was recognised with the award of the gold medal.

Conferred by the Russian Government for distinguished service rendered in the Battle of Jutland. Philip Wilfred Sidney King was born at Penge on 19 March 1881, and entered the training ship Britannia in May 1899, being appointed Midshipman in October 1900. He was promoted to Lieutenant in June 1906 and to Lieutenant-Commander in June 1914, whilst commanding H.M.S. Flying Fish. He took command of H.M.S. Liberty in October 1915, in which ship he fought at the battle of Jutland as part of Admiral Tyrwhitt’s Harwich Force, attached to the Battle Cruiser Fleet (Mentioned in Despatches). In the early hours of February 8th, 1917, H.M. Destroyer Liberty was patrolling in the Dover defile when, at just after 3 a.m., a large submarine was seen to break surface and lying almost at right angles to Liberty, slightly off the destroyer’s starboard bow but right in the centre of the moon’s rays. Straight for the conning-tower under the full moon the Liberty steered at full speed, firing one shot. Unfortunately this shot fell wide, and the flash from the gun blinded those on the bridge. Lieut.-Commander King therefore determined not to waste time but ram the German. Travelling at a speed of 24 knots, the destroyer hit the enemy a magnificent blow only two feet forward of the conning-tower. Despite the great speed and weight of the destroyer hitting a mere 420 German tons, the latter’s dull weight momentarily stopped the destroyer dead. Not put off by that, Lieut.-Commander King began dropping depth charges, which of course exploded to some purpose, and the fate of UC-46 was rapidly settled. It was discovered that the destroyer was beginning to leak quickly but it was later established beyond all doubt that she must have cut through the submarine to a depth of at least four feet. King was awarded the D.S.O. for his neat performance. King was placed on the Retired List at his own request on 17 July 1930, with the rank of Captain. During the Second World War, he was appointed Deputy Sea Transport Officer at Falmouth and was mentioned in despatches in October 1940 ‘for good services over a period.’ Sold with original D.S.O. Warrant, two M.I.D. Certificates, dated 15th September 1916 and 4 October 1940, three photographs and a Lt-Cmdrs epaulette; together with copies of his service record, confirmation of the Russian Award from Admiralty records, and the official action reports for the sinking of the UC-46 (Oberlt. Fritz Moecke) which include a photograph of the considerable damage caused to the hull of H.M.S. Liberty.
