Developed in 1957 by Dick Casull and Jack Fulmer, the round was an improvement on the .45 Colt. Such is the chamber pressure created, the Casull round uses a small rifle primer rather than a pistol primer. It can deliver a 250 grain bullet with a muzzle velocity of over 1900 feet per second, developing more than 2000 ft. lb. of energy.

Howard (Brian, 1905-1958). First Poems, [God Save the King and Other Poems], author's original manuscript, [1930], title page with 'First Poems. Brian Howard', in author's holograph with small heart drawn in ink beneath and a pasted-in magazine headline 'Vive la Vie!' below, 4-line quote from Rimbaud to title verso, followed by eighteen poems in the author's holograph on thirty-seven pages, using blue, red and turquoise ink, numerous corrections and deletions, markings for verse intervals, some amendments including title changes in pencil, poems usually with composition place and date (1925-1930) at foot, final 7 pp. blank, small ink stain to fore-margin of a few leaves, pages uncut, orig. patterned wrappers with repeating abstract design in red, large heart outline drawn by Howard to upper cover in blue ink, partly soiled and faded, spine largely perished and upper cover det., large slim vo. Brian Christian de Claiborne Howard was born of American parents at Winkworth, Hascombe, Surrey. In 1918 he went to Eton and became friends with Harold Acton, and it was there that he began to write and publish poetry with encouragement from Harold Acton and Edith Sitwell. He started at Christ Church, Oxford, in 1923 where he joined the Hypocrites, a group whose members included Evelyn Waugh, L.P. Hartley, Lord David Cecil, Harold Acton and Anthony Powell. Later in the 1920s, he met W.H. Auden with whom he became a close friend and who echoed Lady Caroline Lamb's words for Lord Byron in describing Brian Howard as 'mad, bad and dangerous to know'. Between 1930 and 1947 Howard produced over seventy articles for the 'New Statesman'. During the 1930s he drifted around Europe and had affairs with various young men. He was often drunk throughout his adult life and alcohol, along with drugs, became a problem during his thirties. After the War he continued to write book reviews. In the 1950s his health failed through alcohol dependency and drugs. In January 1958 Howard's lover, Sam, died accidentally of asphyxiation from fumes from a gas heater while they were living together in Nice. Four days later Brian Howard killed himself by taking an overdose of sedatives. He had failed to fulfil his early promise as a poet and published little. His importance arises more from the influence he had on his contemporaries who found his openly homosexual and flamboyant lifestlye an inspiration. He was partly the inspiration for Cedric Hampton in Nancy Mitford's 'Love in a Cold Climate', and largely inspired Evelyn Waugh's characters Ambrose Silk in 'Put Out More Flags' and Anthony Blanche in 'Brideshead Revisited'. The manuscript here appears to be the author's final manuscript draft used for the publication 'God Save the King', his first and only book, which was published in an edition of 150 copies in 1931 by Nancy Cunard at the Hours Press in Paris. Provenance: The manuscript is accompanied by an autograph letter, dated 8th November 2006, from Dorothea Farquhar, 'Dear Mr Pinnington, I enclose the Brian Howard manuscript. For the record, I inherited it from Jenny Macdonell who was Howard's mother's God-daughter. Jenny Macdonell's mother is mentioned in Marie-Jacqueline Lancaster's biography ['Brian Howard: Portrait of a Failure', 1968]'. (1)
