CORNELIUS KRIEGHOFF (DUTCH-CANADIAN 1815-1872): A RARE WATERCOLOUR PAINTING ON PAPER DEPICTING A TRAPPER CARRYING A CANOE UP A WATERFALL17cm x 13cmSigned to the right 'C Krieghoff'.Removed from the scrap book belonging to a relatively of Captain James Muddle.The corners stuck down on paper.James Muddle was born at Gillingham in Kent on 31 January 1785. James probably went to sea at a fairly young age and worked his way up to become a master mariner. The first record of him at sea, at the age of 25, is as the master of the small single mast sloop Boston sailing in coastal waters. In 1814, James then became master of the 356-ton ship ‘Leng’, armed with six 6-pounder guns, bound for the West Indies. The Lloyd's Register for 1820 also recorded that during that year James took over from as master of the 410 ton convict ship Lord Sidmouth. By the age of 35, James had progressed from being master of ships sailing in coastal waters to sailing to the Mediterranean and across the Atlantic, and now to the other side of the World. In 1820 it was reported that the Lord Sidmouth captain Muddle had sailed from Portsmouth on for New South Wales. After a voyage of 107 days, they arrived at Sydney in Australia on 19 February 1821, where 160 male prisoners were disembarked. James and the Lord Sidmouth also sailed to Jakarta, Calcutta, Mauritius. Upon arriving back to England in 1821, James became captain of the prison ship the ‘Andromeda’, which sailed from Leith to to Van Diemans Land and New South Wales. During the following two decades of travels in and around Australia, James will have collected many of the items in the collection. James is also known to have been captain of the ship ‘Lang’, as well as the “Mandarin’, ‘Glenbervie’ and the ‘Roseanne’. He sailed on prison ships to New Zealand and even China. James died in 1865 at the age of 80, and his collection has been passed by descent down the generations to the present owners.For more information please see the link below:https://www.muddlefamilies.info/harrietsham/22eaa.htm

WW2 Cockleshell Hero Bill Sparks DSM, Former French Prime Minister Chaban Delmas signed Navy cover. 50th ann Operation Frankton the Attack on Enemy shipping in Bordeaux. William Edward Sparks DSM (5 September 1922 1 December 2002) was a British Royal Marine Commando in World War II. He was the last survivor of the Cockleshell Heroes of Operation Frankton in 1942; a team of commandos who paddled 85 miles from the Bay of Biscay up the Gironde estuary to Bordeaux in German occupied France, to plant limpet mines on merchant ships supplying the Nazi war machine. During the night of 7 December 1942, ten Royal Marines set out in five canoes on Operation Frankton. They caused considerable damage to five ships, but six of the men were shot by the Germans and two died of hypothermia after their canoe capsized. Sparks and Major Herbert Blondie Hasler were pursued through France and Spain by the Germans for three months before they reached safety in Gibraltar. When Hasler flew home, Sparks was sent back to England under arrest, as no one in Gibraltar could corroborate his story. On arrival, he escaped from the military police and went to see his father, who had been told that he was missing in action. Two days later, he reported to the Admiralty and was about to be arrested again, when he slipped out to Combined Operations Headquarters, where he was greeted with astonishment. During the rest of the war, he served in Burma, North Africa and Italy. Jacques Chaban Delmas 7 March 1915 10 November 2000) was a French Gaullist politician. He served as Prime Minister under Georges Pompidou from 1969 to 1972. He was the Mayor of Bordeaux from 1947 to 1995 and a deputy for the Gironde department between 1946 and 1997. Good condition.

Each of the segments is held in place by tightly bound muka fibre. Such lures were used by the Maori to fish for sea salmon (kahawai). The lure would be dragged behind a fast-moving canoe to attract the prey with the haliotis shell glinting in the sun to emulate the scales of fish to attract larger fish. The technique of using a trolling lure was a Polynesian fishing technique that was brought to New Zealand by the Maori and adapted using local materials.

Footnote; Frank Hurley (1885–1962). An Australian photographer and filmmaker known for his adventurous spirit and pioneering work in documentary photography. One of his notable expeditions took him to Papua (then part of New Guinea) in 1920, where he documented the indigenous cultures and landscapes of the region. His photographs from this visit showcased not only the natural beauty of Papua but also the lives and traditions of its people, capturing the complexities of a world on the brink of change due to colonial influences. Hurley is also famed for his work during World War I, where he served as an official war correspondent, capturing haunting images of the Western Front and Gallipoli. Additionally, he gained recognition for his photography of Antarctica during the Australian Antarctic Expedition (1911–1914) and his involvement in the ill-fated Mawson expedition (1912–1913). His work from Papua, along with these other significant contributions, remains important for its artistic merit and its historical context, providing valuable insights into early 20th-century exploration and representation of indigenous cultures.NOTE: A copy of the Specht & Fields book will be provided to the winner of this lot.

An original film of the trip is now viewable at the Americal Museum of Fly Flishing in Vermont.

An excessively rare Second War ‘Cockleshell’ operations D.S.M. group of seven awarded to Quarter-Master Sergeant J. M. King, Royal Marines, a member of the elite Royal Marine Boom Patrol Detachment (R.M.B.P.D.) Just two wartime raids were carried out by the hand-picked operatives of the R.M.B.P.D., most famously Operation ‘Frankton’, the ‘Cockleshell Heroes’ strike against enemy shipping at Bordeaux in December 1942, and Operation ‘Sunbeam’, a similar canoe launched attack against targets in Leros in June 1944 Sergeant King was well-known to the likes of ‘Blondie’ Hasler and Bill Sparks, having trained beside them in the lead-up to the ‘Cockleshell Heroes’ raid, but it was for his part in ‘Sunbeam’ - described as one of the most brilliant sabotage operations of the war - that he was awarded his immediate D.S.M., one of only three such awards to the R.M.B.P.D. On that memorable occasion, in a damaged canoe ‘with water up to their knees’, and in the face of several challenges from enemy sentries, he and his comrade nonetheless placed six limpet mines on an Italian destroyer: they duly detonated with the desired result Distinguished Service Medal, G.VI.R.

London Gazette 28 November 1944: ‘For gallantry in a hazardous operation in the Aegean.’ The recommendation for his immediate award states: ‘Sgt. King was in charge of one of the canoes during operation SUNBEAM. This operation was undertaken to damage shipping in the defended port of LEROS. Sgt. King’s canoe was holed before entering the harbour, he however showing great determination continued with his task using a sponge to plug the hole, and entered the harbour. Here, although challenged he avoided detection and managed to place six limpets on the hull of an enemy destroyer. On the deck of the destroyer were several armed men and there was a sentry on the jetty. By this time the water in the canoe was around his knees. He however with the help of his crew, Marine RUFF, successfully left the harbour undetected and made the R.V. on the Island of CALINO some 8 miles distant. Sgt. King showed great skill and resolution in continuing with this already hazardous task in a badly damaged canoe. The destroyer was badly damaged and had to be sent to PIRAEUS for repairs.’ James Malcolm King was born in Glasgow on 9 June 1918 and joined the Royal Marines in November 1935. His pre-war appointments having included tours of duty in H.M.S. Rodney and H.M.S. Gloucester, he volunteered for ‘special service’ in the newly established Royal Marine Boom Patrol Detachment in July 1942. Under the watchful eye of his new C.O., Major H. ‘Blondie’ Hasler, King was quickly promoted to Acting Temporary Sergeant and took up appointment as the unit’s Physical Training Instructor, a fact referred to by Bill Sparks in The Last of The Cockleshell Heroes, who credits King with establishing the unit’s haphazard assault course. Sparks adds: ‘To build our assault course we used old tyres, ropes and anything else we could think of, but often with disastrous results. Our improvised equipment sometimes collapsed just as a man leapt on to it, or through it or under it, and the injuries were sometimes severe enough to have the victim rushed to hospital. Eventually the hospital complained that they were getting to many casualties from the R.M.B.P.D. To Blondie this was all water off a duck’s back. He didn’t take any notice and nobody was going to make him deviate from that …’ For the duration of their arduous and intensive training, which of course involved many hours at sea in their Cockle canoes, the 34-strong rank and file of the R.M.B.P.D. were divided into two sections. When, at length, it was time for Hasler to select the Operation ‘Frankton’ team for the raid on Bordeaux harbour in December 1942, King was not in the chosen section, a decision that likely saved his life. The story of his comrades – who became known as the ‘Cockleshell Heroes’ - needs no elaboration here, although it is not without interest that Bill Sparks, one of the two survivors, was a member of King’s section in the Aegean at the time of Operation ‘Sunbeam’. Operation Sunbeam Overall command of the R.M.B.P.D.’s ‘Earthworm’ detachment, as the Operation ‘Sunbeam’ men were known, fell to Captain W. Pritchard-Gordon, R.M., whilst Lieutenant J. F. ‘Jasper’ Richards, R.M. led the operation on the night. As had been the case in Operation ‘Frankton’ the participating cockle canoes were all given names. Thus, Richards and Marine Stevens manned Shark; King and Marine Richard Ruff Salmon and Corporal Horner and Marine Fisher Shrimp. The marines and their canoes were embarked in M.L. 360, in readiness for the planned raid on enemy shipping in Portolaga harbour, Leros, the motor launch hugging anchorages on the Turkish coastline as it awaited the signal to launch the raid. That signal arrived in the afternoon of 16 June 1944, when confirmation was received that potential targets had arrived in convoy at Portolaga. Cecil A. Hampshire’s The Secret Navies takes up the story: ‘Soon afterwards the motor launch left the anchorage on silent engines and headed seawards, increasing speed to 16 knots as soon as she was clear of the land. The marines blackened their faces and hands and made a final check of their stores and weapons. In addition to eight limpet mines, each cockle was to carry a walkie-talkie radio, silent Sten gun, grenades, fighting knives, camouflage nets for canoe and crew, spare paddles, a baling sponge and canoe repair outfit, first aid box, 24-hour food pack, cigarettes and matches in watertight compartments, chart, compass and compensator and, not least, a bird call. All limpets were armed with four-and-a-half-hour delay fuses. The weather was ideal, dark and moonless but with plenty of starlight, a gentle swell and a slight mist over the land. After rounding the southern tip of Kalymnos and turning northwards, the motor launch reduced speed to 12 knots fore the final run-up to the dropping zone. During this last leg of the voyage the marines, clad in their cockle suits, squatted silently around their gear on the upper deck, each man engrossed in his own thought.’ And of subsequent events in respect of Sergeant King and Marine Ruff in Salmon, Cecil A. Hampshire continues: ‘A few minutes later the semi-waterlogged Salmon appeared out of the darkness, with King paddling and the weary Ruff stoically bailing out. That they had managed to complete the operation at all was nothing less than remarkable, for they had been bedevilled by a leaking canoe throughout. On entering the harbour they were almost immediately challenged by the bomb patrol vessel. But as she made no move to follow this up, the hails were ignored and Salmon pressed on towards her first objective. Half an hour later they were again challenged, this time from the shore, the shout being heard also by Richards and Stevens in Shark ahead of them. For a few moments the raiders remained perfectly still, then moved off again le...
