HALLOWEENOne Sheet (27" x 41"); Blue Ratings Box StyleVery Fine+ on Linen; Artwork by Bob Gleeson Compass International, 1978The poster, preserved on linen, exhibited minimal fold wear before it was backed. Posters with black backgrounds, like this one printed on clay-coated stock, frequently suffered from flaking at the folds, which turned the folds white. Now, this poster presents itself beautifully.John Carpenter's visceral horror film not only started a hugely successful franchise, it also massively popularised and evolved the slasher genre. Few cinematic stalker-killers have the same impact and endurance as the white-masked Michael Myers.This lot will be auctioned on Thursday, September 12th.

AN INTERESTING VICTORIAN COLONIAL INDIA 'MILITARY INTELLIGENCE DEPARTMENT' SIGHTING COMPASSUNSIGNED, MARKED FOR THE INDIAN COLONIAL GOVERNMENT AND M.I.D., CALCUTTA, CIRCA 1880The 3 inch circular silvered plate marked with eight cardinal points annotated with East/West reversed and engraved with government arrow device over I then M.I.D. E.P.'T., CALCUTTA to centre, within scale divided for every ten degrees deviating from 0 at North and South up to 90 at East and West, within a second raised concentric scale calibrated for every degree and annotated anticlockwise in tens 0-360, the steel pointer with locking lever set behind glass secured by a brass ring bezel, the rectangular mahogany case with hinged top section opening to reveal the compass and pair of hinged brass sights positioned at North and South and set on substantial brass straps, the lid with further recessed brass strap further engraved with the government arrow device over I then M.I.D., CALCUTTA, 13.14.5cm (5.75ins) wide, 11cm (4.25ins) deep, 3.2cm (1.25ins) high closed; 9cm (3.5ins) high open. The initials 'M.I.D.' inscribed on the present lot stands for the Calcutta-based 'Military Intelligence Department' which was originally set up by the East India Company prior to the 'India Mutiny' which led to the formation of the English government controlled Indian Colonial Government in 1858. The M.I.D. had responsibility for the security of Greater India, borders and coasts (including what in now known as Bangladesh, Burma and Pakistan). The department continued operations under the Indian Colonial Government reporting directly to the Governor General then later the Viceroy. With regards to dating the present lot The Indian Colonial Government instituted the 'government arrow' over 'I' mark on their instruments and other property from around 1877.  The reversed East and West annotations ensure that the correct direction of sight is displayed on the scale when the instrument is in use. In other words when sighting North and then subsequently looking to observe to the West, the compass will need to be rotated anticlockwise. The needle will then move clockwise in relation to North thus the scale will correctly provide a 'sight' reading in the Westerly direction.

A FINE AND RARE ENGLISH WILLIAM III/QUEEN ANNE SILVER BUTTERFIELD PATTERN SUNDIALJOHN ROWLEY, LONDON, CIRCA 1700The plate with three hour scales for 45, 51 and 55 degrees annotated 4-12-8, IIII-XII-VIII, 4-12-8 with the centre Roman scale divided into half and quarter hours as well as ten-minute increments, the centre with foliate engraved infill incorporating stylised interloping scrolls possibly forming an elaborate monogram, overlaid with a hinged bird engraved adjustable gnomon calibrated in degrees for elevation to the outer edge, opposing a glazed compass divided for N, E, S and W only and with gold inlaid N, S annotations to the blued steel pointer, the underside engraved with latitudes for twelve cities in two panels, the left-hand Rome 41.04, Hague 52.1, Amsterdam 52.03, Venice 45.18 and Vienna 48.22 opposing London 51.30, York 53.50, Cambridg 52.17, Bristol 51.30, Exeter 50.40 and Chester 53.17 to the right, the lower edge signed in a curve John Rowley Fecit; in original silk velvet lined ray skin protective case.The instrument 8.5cm (3.625ins) long, 6.7cm (2.625ins) wide, 4cm (1.625ins) approx. high with gnomon raised; the case 9cm (3.5ins) wide, 7.5cm (3ins) deep, 2cm (0.75ins) high closed. Provenance:The Leonard Fuller Collection. John Rowley is recorded in Clifton, Gloria Directory of British Scientific Instrument Makers 1550-1851 as a mathematical instrument maker and book engraver working from 'Behind the Exchange' Threadneedle Street, London in 1691, then from 'The Globe under St. Dunstan's Church' Fleet Street 1702-15 and at Johnson's Court, Fleet Street 1710-27; Clifton noted that the latter address may well have been his living residence. Amongst Rowley's apprentices was Thomas Wright (in 1707) who then went on to become his successor and one of the most important makers of scientific instrument makers of the eighteenth century. Another apprentice was John Coggs who went on to become particularly well known for his sundials, most notably his universal ring dials. This design of portable pocket sundial was devised by Michael Butterfield, an English Instrument maker who settled in Paris around 1685. Although this type of dial became popular with other French makers (most notably those who worked nearby to Butterfield's workshop on 'Le Quay de L'Horloge') very few appear to have been made by English makers in London; hence the present lot is a particularly rare example.  Condition Report: The instrument appears to be in fine original condition with the only notable fault being a small shallow chip to the inside edge of the compass glass. The case is intact and in sound original condition. The right-hand eye for the securing latch is missing and there is a small loss to the wooden structure to the interior of the lid at this point. There is also a small section of the delicate raised lip (for locating/closing against the inner edge of the lid) to the lower section missing. The lid has a slight warp/distortion, and the velvet lining has overall fading/wear. The underside has some later pins towards one edge no doubt to secure lifting skin covering at some point. Otherwise, faults are limited to minor age-related wear. Condition Report Disclaimer

AN ENGLISH 5.5 INCH CELESTIAL NAVIGATIONAL 'STAR' GLOBECARY AND COMPANY, LONDON, CIRCA 1925The sphere applied with twelve gores printed with stars and principal constellations labelled, the solstitial colure divided for the annual calendar, the equinoctial graduated in degrees, the northern hemisphere with key for star MAGNITUDES above panel inscribed CARY & Co., Makers to the Admiralty, 7 PALL MALL, LONDON, pivoted between the poles within a lacquered brass meridian circle divided for degrees and resting via similarly divided horizon ring, annotated with sixteen compass cardinal points and inscribed CARY LONDON PAT'N No. 21540, with four-arm domed restraint with each sector again divided for degrees, the mahogany box with TO ADJUST THE INSTRUMENT... instruction label pasted to inside of lid, the exterior now painted blue and with replaced vacant inset shaped plate to lid and conforming original brass key escutcheon to front.The box 21.5cm (8.5ins) high, 20,5cm (8.125ins) square.  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 (who was born circa 1759 and apprenticed to Jesse Ramsden); 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 John Cary 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. Latterly the firm passed to Henry Porter who continued to until his death in 1902; his sons succeeded him however by the mid 1920's business had subsided to the point that they were barely trading. The firm is reported to have been finally wound-up by 1931.  Such globes were supplied/issued to mariners to assist with night-time navigation by providing a reference for the relative position of the celestial bodies. Condition Report: The globe is in fine original condition with faults very much limited to a small group of small surface scuffs to the lower hemisphere (image available). The brass work is complete and all-original retaining lacquer finish with minimal wear/oxidation. The box has been overpainted with blue paint over the original mahogany finish hence would benefit from being stripped and re-polished. The inset nameplate to the lid has also been replaced with one made from a formica-type material, otherwise box appears to be in fine condition.Box has a key for the lock. Condition Report Disclaimer

Edward died in 1835 followed by William in 1860; the business was subsequently continued by their successors until 1922 when the name was changed to Cooke, Troughton and Simms.

The business was established in 1845 by two pupils of the renowned instrument maker Henri Gambey; in around 1902 the firm moved from 43, Passage Dauphine, Paris, to 6 rue Victor Considerant. It was then taken over by Albert Lepetit, in about 1914, and moved to Montrouge at 204 avenue Marx Dormoy, before passing into the hands of Roger Poulin in around 1950.
