A 12inch terrestrial table globe by Cruchley, 19th century and restored, marked 'Cruchley's New Terrestrial Globe', with engraved brass Meridian ring, on turned mahogany three-leg stand with cross stretcher 46cm high Provenance: Tanners, Kedington, Suffolk Has a small crack at the north pole. Spins without rubbing. The globe and horizon ring have been cleaned and carefully but fully restored with some filled in smaller sections. The stand we think is a more modern reproduction as it does not show any signs of real wear. The globe lifts cleanly out of the stand. The owner was a keen collector of antiques and bought from long established dealers, though we have no paperwork for this particualr item.

ED RUSCHA (AMERICAN 1937-) CITIES, FROM THE 'WORLD' SERIES (ENGBERG 121) - 1982 Lithograph, 11/40, signed, dated and numbered in pencil, printed and published by Gemini G.E.L., Los Angeles, with their blindstamp the sheet 63.5cm x 121cm (25in x 47.5in) Private Collection, U.S.A. - The current owner's father had the full folio, acquired in the 1980s, and then distributed the individual prints between family members. Ruscha published the ‘World’ Series at Gemini in 1982. As Siri Engberg elaborates, they feature the artist’s characteristic wordplay but ‘he zooms further out, presenting images of the planet Earth and vast, low-slung horizons neatly marked with text – a geographical version of the sort of demarcation one might find on a historical timeline.’ Meanwhile, the long stroke lines ‘create the suggestion of animation-style motion: a spinning globe, caught for a split second’ (Siri Engberg, Out of Print; The Editions of Ed Ruscha, pg. 38). The resultant effect is energetic and playful, deceptively simple but with deeper layers of reference and significance, exploring what it means to try and capture aspects of the world and our experience in a single image or word.

A FINE GEORGE II/III MAHOGANY MERCURY STICK BAROMETER WITH LARGE SCALE THERMOMETERJOHN BENNETT, LONDON, MID 18th CENTURYThe break-arch case with central brass Classical bust finial over cavetto cornice and hinged brass-framed arch glazed door enclosing silvered Vernier scale calibrated in barometric inches to right hand side opposing the usual observations to the left beneath signature Bennett, LONDON to upper section, the caddy moulded trunk applied with a tall shaped-top silvered Fahrenheit Scale alcohol thermometer incorporating drilled brass shield to the bulb and with annotations ranging from Extreme Cold to Extreme Hot, over rounded base applied with a hemispherical cistern cover and incorporating level adjustment screw to underside.101cm (39.5ins) high overall 16.5cm (6.5ins) wide. Provenance:The Dr. Castle Collection of barometers and other weather instruments. Purchased at Sotheby's, London sale of Important Clocks, Watches & Wristwatches 14th December 2006 (lot 7) for £4,322.50. John Bennett (III) is recorded in Clifton, Gloria Directory of British Scientific Instrument Makers 1550-1851 as gaining his Freedom of the Clockmakers' Company in 1733, and working from Hatton Wall, London, until 1746, when he relocated to Old Bailey before finally moving to Fleet Street in 1751. Nicholas Goodison in ENGLISH BAROMETERS 1680-1860 notes that John Bennett worked up until 1768 and illustrates an undated trade card indicating that he was located at 'The Globe, Crown Court, between St. Ann's, Soho, and Golden Square'. Bennett was a fine maker who held warrants to three members of the Royal Family and most likely had a working relationship with the eminent scientific instrument maker Jonathan Sisson. 

Y A FINE GEORGE III EBONY BANDED MAHOGANY MERCURY STICK BAROMETER WITH HYGROMETERCARY, LONDON, CIRCA 1800The case with swan neck pediment over circular silvered hygrometer annotated DAMP/DRY set behind convex glazed brass bezel, over rectangular brass-framed glazed door enclosing silvered Vernier scale calibrated in barometric inches to right hand side opposing the usual observations to the left beneath signature Cary, London to upper margin, the ebony-banded caddy moulded trunk applied with arch glazed silvered Fahrenheit and Reaumur scale mercury thermometer over circular convex cistern cover to the rounded base incorporating level adjustment screw to underside.108cm (42.5ins) high, 14cm (5.5ins) wide. The celebrated Cary family business of scientific instrument and globe makers was established by John Cary at Johnson's Court, Fleet Street, London in 1782 moving to a new address at 'Corner of Arundel Square', Strand the following year. He was primarily an engraver of maps, charts and globes who moved again in 1783 to 188 Strand. By 1791 he had entered into what appeared to be a relatively casual partnership with his brother, William; this partnership lasted until circa 1816 by which time William and John Cary had moved again to 181 Strand before finally settling in 86 St. James in 1820. The following year he was succeeded by his sons, John (II) and George Cary, who continued from the firm's 181 Strand address until 1851/2 when the business was acquired by Henry Gould. Condition Report: Instrument is in good original condition having been cosmetically restored at some time in the fairly recent past. The tube is filled with mercury however the column stops a little short of the top of the tube when the instrument is tilted slightly suggesting the presence of some air. The register plate has good clean even silvering and. the brass door is in sound condition however we do not have a key for the lock. The thermometer is in fine working condition. The case is generally very good. The pediment appears original but with evidence that some of the ebonised mouldings may have come loose and been re-stuck at some point. Both sides of the case at the cistern level have some slight bruising otherwise faults to the case are limited to minor bumps, scuffs shrinkage and wear commensurate with age and use.Condition Report Disclaimer

A FINE GEORGE II 2.75 INCH TERRESTRIAL POCKET GLOBENATHANIEL HILL, LONDON, PUBLISHED 1754 The sphere applied with twelve hand coloured engraved printed gores and two polar calottes, the equatorial graduated in degrees and hours and the ecliptic showing the symbols of the zodiac, the prime meridian marked with a dotted line passing through London and the land masses outlined in colour with many countries and states labelled including NEW HOLLAND partly shown, land north of the Mississippi R. labelled Unknown Parts, Antarctica not delineated and annotated ICE SEA only below Cape Horn, the North Pacific with rococo cartouche inscribed A NEW, Terrestrial, GLOBE, by Nath Hill, 1754, the poles pierced for axis pins; contained within original ray skin covered case lined with twelve hand coloured printed gores and two polar calottes with equatorial and ecliptic lines matching the terrestrial globe, stars expressed in varying orders of magnitude and allegorical representations of the constellations finely executed, the exterior with twin hook and eye securing latches.The sphere 7cm (2.75ins) diameter; the case 7.6cm (3ins) diameter overall. Nathaniel Hill is recorded in Clifton, Gloria Directory of British Scientific Instrument Makers 1550-1851 as working from 'The Sun & Globe' Chancery Lane, Fleet Street, London 1746-1764. He was apprenticed to the celebrated early globe-maker, Richard Cushee, and latterly took-on his Chancery Lane address. Nathaniel Hill was in-turn succeeded by Thomas Bateman who was then followed by John Newton. Indeed Hill's plates for the present globe were used the basis for Newton's first pocket globe (1783) with relatively few updates. Nathaniel Hill's 1754 pocket globe proved particularly popular which might, in part, be due to competitive pricing, as it cost seven shillings six pence versus ten shillings for others by makers such as Senex and Martin and Dudley Adams. Condition Report: Globe is in very good original condition retaining old varnish surface with only light wear and mellowing/discoloration evident. There is a very small (2mm) scuff on the 'Artic circle' above the title cartouche and another less noticeable scuff off the west coast of Africa otherwise only light rubbing is evident. There is no visible evidence of cracks, bruises or restoration. The poles a pierced for axis pivots but none are fitted. The case is also in fine original condition although it has distorted vert slightly. The celestial papers are in fine condition with strong colouring and only a few small spots of discolouration and very light wear to the edges of the opening sections. The exterior is veneered in panels of ray skin with some slight shrinkage/opening to the joins only. Condition Report Disclaimer

Thomas Harris senior is noted as working as an optician, mathematical instrument and globe maker from 1790; and his son from 1802. Both makers are listed as worked from 140 Fleet Street, London in 1804, and then Thomas junior alone at Hyde Street, Bloomsbury in 1808 - having most likely inherited the business from his father who died in 1806. Thomas Harris junior served as a Sargeant in the Bloomsbury Volunteers and died in an unfortunate fire at Covent Garden Theatre in 1808.
