Apollo 16 Charlie Duke Moonwalker signed 2002 30th Ann Space cover NASA Astronaut. Superb illustration on front of scenes from the mission. Also illustrated on back with crew names and mission information. Charles Moss Duke Jr. (born October 3, 1935) is an American former astronaut, United States Air Force (USAF) officer and test pilot. As Lunar Module pilot of Apollo 16 in 1972, he became the tenth and youngest person to walk on the Moon, at age 36 years and 201 days. A 1957 graduate of the United States Naval Academy, he joined the USAF. He completed advanced flight training on the F-86 Sabre at Moody Air Force Base in Georgia, where he was a distinguished graduate. After completion of this training, Duke served three years as a fighter pilot with the 526th Fighter-Interceptor Squadron at Ramstein Air Base in West Germany. After graduating from the Aerospace Research Pilot School in September 1965, he stayed on as an instructor teaching control systems and flying in the F-101 Voodoo, F-104 Starfighter, and T-33 Shooting Star. In April 1966, Duke was one of nineteen men selected for NASA's fifth group of astronauts. In 1969, he was a member of the astronaut support crew for Apollo 10. He served as CAPCOM for Apollo 11, the first crewed landing on the Moon. His distinctive Southern drawl became familiar to audiences around the world, as the voice of a Mission Control made nervous by a long landing that almost expended all of the Lunar Module Eagle descent stage's propellant. Duke's first words to the Apollo 11 crew on the surface of the Moon were flustered, "Roger, Twang. Tranquillity, we copy you on the ground. You got a bunch of guys about to turn blue. We're breathing again. Thanks a lot!" Duke was backup lunar module pilot on Apollo 13. Shortly before the mission, he caught rubella (German measles) from a friend's child and inadvertently exposed the prime crew to the disease. As Ken Mattingly had no natural immunity to the disease, he was replaced as command module pilot by Jack Swigert. Mattingly was reassigned as command module pilot of Duke's flight, Apollo 16. On this mission, Duke and John Young landed at the Descartes Highlands, and conducted three extravehicular activities (EVAs). He also served as backup lunar module pilot for Apollo 17. Duke retired from NASA on January 1, 1976. Following his retirement from NASA, Duke entered the Air Force Reserve and served as a mobilization augmentee to the Commander, USAF Basic Military Training Center, and to the Commander, USAF Recruiting Service. He graduated from the Industrial College of the Armed Forces in 1978. He was promoted to brigadier general in 1979 and retired in June 1986. He has logged 4,147 hours' flying time, of which 3,632 hours were in jet aircraft, and 265 hours were in space, including 21 hours and 38 minutes of EVA. Duke resides in New Braunfels, Texas, and was named Texan of the Year in 2020. He is currently on the board of directors for the Astronaut Scholarship Foundation and previously served for two years as the chairman. He is a popular motivational speaker, with NASA films and personal stories of his Apollo mission on the moon.

The Principal Architect of the Irish Court System“One of the Ablest Judges to have Graced the Irish Bench”KENNEDY, Hugh [1879-1936], First Attorney General and first Chief Justice of the Irish Free State, a small Archive of documents, letters, drawings and photographs.Hugh Kennedy was a contemporary of James Joyce at University College in Dublin, where he was editor of St. Stephen’s, the student magazine which published some of Joyce’s early work, and auditor of the L&H. He was called to the bar in 1902, and quickly established a reputation; by 1907 he had published a legal textbook. An Irish speaker, he was active in the Gaelic League, serving on a committee with such people as Pearse and Ceannt. He had strong national sympathies, and an unsigned work of 1910 listed below shows that he had no illusions about the British. He was legal adviser to the Department of Local Government in the first Dail, and to the Provisional Government established under the Anglo-Irish Treaty of 1921. He was a member of the committee which drafted the Constitution of the new state, and engaged in detailed negotiations with the British to secure their agreement to its terms. In this process he gained at least one notable success, over rights of appeal to the Privy Council in London (see Keane, D.I.B.). He was briefly a TD for a Dublin constituency. In 1923 he was appointed Attorney-General, and when the new Irish courts system was established in 1924, Kennedy became the first Chief Justice, a position which he held until his death. He may fairly be described as the principal architect of the Irish courts system. He authored many significant judgements, and ‘has been generally regarded as one of the ablest judges to have graced the Irish bench since independence’ (Ronan Keane in D.I.B. – himself a former Chief Justice).The principal collection of Kennedy’s legal papers is in UCD. The present archive consists of items which have remained in family hands, including letters to Mrs. Kennedy after his death. It includes:- An important collection of coloured watercolour drawings of the green robes which Kennedy as Chief Justice proposed (at the suggestion of W.B. Yeats) for the new Irish Supreme Court, supposedly based on the robes worn by the Gaelic Brehons. According to Keane (D.I.B.), these designs were developed through discussion with Yeats, who was much interested in the outward symbols of the new State, and the drawings were executed by Yeats’ friend, the distinguished artist and designer Charles Shannon. There are three mounted drawings of designs for robes, each on card circa 37cms x 27cms, two designs for headgear, 27cms x 19cms, and one monochrome drawing of robes, probably a preliminary sketch. Although unsigned, these undoubtedly are Shannon’s original drawings, and are probably the only visual record of this project. The boards bear the stamp of The Ruskin Studio, VII New Court, [London] W.C. 2. The proposal was not welcomed by Kennedy’s colleagues, and when Yeats proposed a Senate motion on the issue, the division was lost by one vote. See Foster, W.B. Yeats, A Life, Vol. II p. 331. The drawings are in immaculate condition, as fresh as the day they were painted.- Five albums of letters, documents and photographs, as follows:- Album 1. A collection of circa 40 mostly unmounted photographic prints, mostly 19cms x 24cms with some smaller, showing Kennedy (often with his wife Clare) at a variety of events through the 1920s and 1930s, illustrating the life of the elite in those years. These are mostly good quality professional. photographs. They are generally not captioned, but the principal participants are easily recognisable, including Kennedy, a small man who became increasingly corpulent with the passage of years and good dinners. A well-known photograph shows mourners at the funeral of Arthur Griffith, led by Eoin MacNeill, with Kennedy in the third rank. On the reverse is written, ‘This is when Uncle Hugh + others were locked up in the 4 Courts & the Castle in the ‘Troubled Times’. An Irish Times photo (1924, probably at an Aonach Tailteann event) shows the veteran American Fenian John Devoy seated beside two Oriental gentlemen, with the Chief Justice and his wife at the ends of the line. There are some curious photos of the elaborate costume worn by Mrs. Kennedy at a ‘Nine Arts’ Ball in 1925.; also a menu for a banquet for John McCormack during Aonach Tailteann 1925, signed by the singer.- Albums 2, 3 and 4 contain a very wide variety of documents and letters dating from all periods of Kennedy’s life, not chronologically organised but including much interesting and some important material. They include:- Manuscript in Hugh Kennedy’s hand `Claim for Compensation for Property Destroyed @ the Four Courts. One page quarto;- Manuscript in Hugh Kennedy’s hand List of Books Purchased December 1927 to March, 1928. Seven pages quarto;- Two invoices from Fred Hanna, Ltd., Booksellers, Nassau Street, dated 1 Oct 1929 and 3 Jan 1930;- A selection of (empty) official envelopes, including one dated 29.12.22, headed ‘Fé Rún. For Minister Only’, addressed to ‘Dlí Oifigeach’, with official seal on reverse; - A selection of calling cards, including Kennedy’s (in Irish, Aodh Ó Cinnéide), Douglas Hyde, with an inscription, Myles Dillon, John A. Murphy (Mrs. Kennedy’s father, inscribed reverse) etc.; - A TLS appointing Kennedy a Vice-President of the Royal Irish Academy 1936; - A printed Syllabus of Courses for the School of Irish Studies, Dublin 1905;
William Osborne, RHA (Irish, 1823-1901)Equestrian portrait of Thomas Conolly, MP, of Castletown, mounted on a dappled grey hunter in a wooded landscapeOil on canvas 112 x 133cm (44 1/16 x 52 3/8in).Footnotes:Provenance:Anon. sale, Christie's, London, 10 April 1992, lot 81With Frost and Reed Ltd., London, no. 57638Castletown House, where these portraits originally hung, is Ireland's first and finest Palladian mansion. Located in County Kildare, the house was begun in 1722 for William Conolly (1662 –1729), Speaker of the Irish House of Commons and was magnificently remodelled and decorated by Lady Louisa Conolly (1743-1821), wife of Thomas Conolly (1738-1803) from 1759 onwards. After Lady Louisa's death the Conolly estates, including Castletown, were inherited by Thomas Conolly's grandnephew Edward Pakenham (1786–1848), who then took the name Conolly. During Edward's time few changes were made to the house, probably due to the strained economic circumstances of this time. In 1848 Edward Conolly was succeeded at Castletown and Westminster by Thomas Conolly, here depicted by William Osborne, mounted on a dappled grey hunter. For Osborne's companion portrait of Sarah Conolly, seated side saddle on a light bay hunter, see the previous lot. While the 18th century history of Castletown and its residents has been extensively studied, the 19th century history of the house and its inhabitants is perhaps a little less well known. However, eight diaries written by Thomas Conolly between 1853 and 1870-71, have been preserved (collections of Desmond Guinness (1931-2020) and Irish Architectural Archive). These diaries act as an effective paper trail for life at Castletown in the mid-nineteenth century and record his activities, social engagements, hunt meets, travels and health. Thomas Conolly, owner of Castletown, the first great Palladian mansion in Ireland, was also amongst the last of the Protestant ascendancy landowners of a 'Big House' in nineteenth century Ireland and his story has been recently published by Dr Suzanne M. Pegley in her book Thomas Conolly (1823-76) of Castletown House and the social networking of power. As Pegley notes 'Although documentary evidence is limited, his contribution assured that the fabric of the house and its legacy was sustained for the benefit of his grandchildren and ultimately, if not intentionally, for the Irish people (see Suzanne Pegley, Landscapes of Power, The Social Network of the Power Elite in mid-Victorian Ireland Case Study of Thomas Conolly (1823-76) of Castletown, Co Kildare, PhD thesis, 2018, p.42).Thomas Conolly travelled extensively, including to Virginia in 1864 during the height of the American Civil War where he met General Lee, Jefferson Davis and other Confederate leaders. And his diary of that time has been acknowledged as an important record for researchers of 19th century American history (see Nelson D Lankford, ed., An Irishman in Dixie: Thomas Conolly's Diary of the Fall of the Confederacy, 1988). Upon Conolly's return to Ireland in 1864, he was forced to sell some of the Castletown lands to avert financial troubles. He settled at Castletown in 1869, marrying Sarah Eliza Shaw, the Celbridge paper miller's daughter. And following this (and the addition of her dowry of £10,000 to his fortune) the couple carried out some new work and refurbishment of Castletown. This included the decoration of the blue bedroom, the partial redecoration of the long gallery and the red and green silk rooms. The couple visited the Pitti Palace in Florence, which is thought to have been the inspiration for Castletown's red silk room which has been recently restored.The couple's decision to be painted by the Irish artist William Osborne (1823-1901), prepared for a hunt, is noteworthy. Osborne's work relating to equestrian subjects was highly admired in 19th century Ireland. See for example his great ensemble portrait 'The Ward Hunt', preserved at The National Gallery of Ireland (NGI.891). For the Conolly's, horses and hunting were the centre of their world. Conolly was an enthusiastic member of the Kildare Hunt and as Suzanne Pegley's transcriptions of Conolly's diaries have shown, he spent 30 days of 1853 hunting and was keeping twelve horses for his personal use at this time. In 1868, while the Conolly's were on their honeymoon in Paris Thomas and Napoleon III, entered into friendly competition about their horses and carriages. Conolly was considered to have won the competition because his horses were 'shod in silver' (see Boylan, 'The Conolly Family', Irish Georgian Society Bulletin, Vol XI, no. 4, 1968, p. 45). Conolly's sporting interests can be seen not just in the commissioning of these portraits but in his interventions at Castletown, his conversion of the print room into a billiards room and in 1872 his renovation of the first-floor east wing stables at Castletown creating a clubroom for social activities of the Kildare Hunt.These pictures by Osborne are certainly the most important works by the artist to appear on the market for many decades. While known as an expert hand with horses and dogs, Osborne here demonstrates his versatility by capturing his sitters with flattering skill. These pictures are a fitting tribute to the inhabitants of one of the largest estates in Ireland, an adventure loving whose impact on Castletown can still be seen today.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: TPTP Lot will be moved to an offsite storage location (Cadogan Tate, Auction House Services, 241 Acton Lane, London NW10 7NP, UK) and will only be available for collection from this location at the date stated in the catalogue.
