'The Souls' Album of silhouette portraits, 1899-1901 containing some 90 scissor-work silhouette portraits in black paper, set into rectos and versos of stiff card mounts, nearly all with autograph signature of sitter (mounted or direct), many dated, a few also with a silhouette of presumably of the sitter's hand, sitters include: A. J. Balfour (1848-1930), prime minister; Percy Wyndham (1835-1911), Conservative politician and spiritualist; Madeline Wyndham (née Campbell, d.1920), wife of Percy; George Wyndham (1863-1913), Conservative politician and son of Percy and Madeline; Pamela Tennant (née Wyndham, later Baroness Glenconner, then Viscountess Grey of Fallodon, 1871-1928), writer and socialite, and daughter of Percy and Madeline Wyndham (three portraits); Edward Tennant (later Baron Glenconner, 1859-1920), Liberal politician and husband of Pamela; Mary, Lady Elcho (née Wyndham, later Charteris, Countess of Wemyss, 1862-1937), socialite and daughter of Percy and Madeline Wyndham; Hugo Charteris, Lord Elcho (later the Earl of Wemyss, 1857-1937), Conservative politician and husband of Mary; Cynthia (1887-1960) and Guy Charteris (1886-1967), children of Mary and Hugo; Oliver Lodge (1851-1940), physicist and spiritualist; Princess Sophia Duleep Singh (1876-1948), suffragette and daughter of Duleep Singh; Silas Weir Mitchell (1829-1914), American physician; Augustus Hemming (1841-1907), colonial administrator, and others, including Elizabeth, Countess of Northesk ('Bessie Northesk'), Douglas and Madge Carnegie (also members of the Northesk family), the Duke and Duchess of Atholl, Dorothy Carleton (niece of Percy Wyndham), and others. Together with a similar album (containing approx. 56 silhouette portraits)Note: Note: The Souls were an aristocratic clique active from the 1880s to the 1910s who 'protested against the philistinism of contemporary aristocratic society, cultivating personal intimacy and friendship rather than field sports and ostentatious display' (ODNB). The nucleus of the group comprised four families, the Balfours, Lytteltons, Tennants, and Wyndhams, with sometime prime minister Arthur Balfour as their leader, their preferred recreations being late-night word games and golfing holidays at North Berwick. This album provides a glimpse of their wider milieu, including scientists, spiritualists and various Scottish peers, and is exactly contemporary with John Singer Sargent's monumental portrait of the Wyndham sisters, Pamela Tennant, Mary Elcho, and Madeline Adeane, known as The Three Graces, which was exhibited in 1900.

London: Longman, Hurst, Rees [&c.], 1823. 8vo, lithographed portrait frontispiece, 4pp. advertisements at beginning, engraved bookplate of Sir William Middleton Bart., of Shrubland Park, original boards, uncut, paper label to spineNote: Note: The third edition of John D. Hunter's Memoirs of a Captivity was published in 1824, so this 'new edition' would appear to be the second edition. This copy contains the rare lithographed frontispiece by C.R. Leslie printed by Hullmandel, which was not present in the copy examined for the Wagner-Camp entry, or in the Library of Congress copy. Wagner-Camp notes that "Hunter's autobiography includes his story of a journey across the mountains to the Pacific Ocean, `on the south side of the Chok-a-li-lum (Columbia River)'." Wagner doubted the veracity of this account, although he accepted Hunter's description of life among the Kansas and Osage Indians as authentic. He claimed to have been abducted at an early age by Kickapoo Indians, but escaped to white settlements to get an education. He visited London where he was lionised in 1823-34 and then returned to America where he was murdered by Cherokees.

Only Pericles has since been found to have been (partly) written by Shakespeare (all seven of these works are missing from this copy.)

John Clerk of Eldin (1728-1812), 'a true child of the Enlightenment' (ODNB) is best remembered today for his Essay on Naval Tactics (1790). 'Clerk was an exceptional amateur artist.

In the 1740s he began sketching alongside his brother-in-law, Robert Adam, and the artist Paul Sandby. Clerk travelled extensively throughout Scotland, recording a wide range of landscapes and ancient buildings. His sketches of Edinburgh and the surrounding areas are highly personal representations of his native countryside' (National Galleries of Scotland, online). The Bannatyne Club was an antiquarian printing society founded in Edinburgh in 1823 by Sir Walter Scott on the model of London's Roxburghe Club.Provenance: Sir James Young Simpson (1811-1870), physician and pioneer of chloroform, original subscriber; thence by descent.
