SIR THOMAS LIPTON'S SILVER CIGAR CASE, by Edwin Page, hallmarked for Birmingham 1924, of standard form, the lid bearing the coloured enamel flag of the Royal Ulster Yacht Club (Lipton's 'home' club) above his personal yacht flag, the two flying from a yellow-enamelled pole, lacking internal elastic as usual; together with an interesting autograph letter to W.C. Dodge from Thomas Lipton on S.Y. Erin notepaper, dated New York, 7th October 1901, and clearly thanking Dodge for his commiserations following the defeat of Lipton's Shamrock II in his third America's Cup challenge just days before; and a copy of Laurence Brady's 2007 book The Man Who Challenged America; the Life and Obsession of Sir Thomas Lipton, as new; the first a highly personal memento and the second a poignant reminder of Lipton's repeatedly unsuccessful attempts to win the America's Cup, -3, By 1924, the year this cigar case was manufactured, Sir Thomas Lipton, the immensely wealthy British tea magnate of Irish parentage, had already mounted four costly but unsuccessful challenges for the America's Cup - or as he habitually called it "the Auld Mug" - in 1899, 1901, 1903 and 1920. Each challenge had required a new boat so he commissioned a succession of big cutters, each (numerically) named Shamrock, in addition to his own personal cutter, also called Shamrock. His final challenge came in 1930 soon after which Lipton died with his greatest ambition unfulfilled.

CAPTAIN FREDERICK MARRYAT, R.N. (1792-1848) JOINED THE NAVY IN 1806 AND, ALTHOUGH HE MISSED ALL THE BIG FLEET ACTIONS, HE ENJOYED A LIVELY NAVAL CAREER SEEMING TO TAKE HIS LEAD FROM HIS FIRST COMMANDER, LORD COCHRANE. BY THE CLOSE OF THE NAPOLEONIC WARS, HE HAD GUARDED NAPOLEON, PARTICIPATED IN SEVERAL SPIRITED FRIGATE ACTIONS, SURVIVED SERIOUS FEVERS, SAVED FIVE LIVES IN ACTION AND HAD BEEN PROMOTED COMMANDER. DESPITE ALL THIS, HE FOUND LASTING FAME INITIALLY FOR HIS SIGNAL CODE, FIRST PUBLISHED IN 1817.

WHEN HE RETIRED FROM THE NAVY (OR RATHER HOT-HEADEDLY RESIGNED ON THE NOMINAL GROUNDS OF 'PRIVATE AFFAIRS') IN 1830, HE BECAME A MAN OF LETTERS AND IT WAS IN THIS PART OF HIS CAREER THAT HE BECAME A HIGHLY POPULAR AUTHOR. HE SPAWNED MANY FAMOUS WORKS DRAWN CLOSELY FROM HIS OWN EXPERIENCES: NEWTON FORSTER, PETER SIMPLE, JACOB FAITHFUL, MIDSHIPMAN EASY, AND JAPHET WERE PUBLISHED TO GREAT ACCLAIM. THE LAST EIGHT YEARS OF HIS LIFE WERE DEVOTED TO CHILDREN'S STORIES INCLUDING MASTERMAN READY, OR, THE WRECK OF THE PACIFIC (1841) AND THE STILL-FAMOUS THE CHILDREN OF THE NEW FOREST (1847).
