1200-800 BC, Greek Archaic Period. This beautiful cast bronze sword has a tapering, bevelled blade with a wide raised midrib adorned with five shallow fullers or “blood groves” and a recessed integral handle with a gently crescentic lower guard. The recessed design would have allowed the entire handle to have been inset with stone, bone or stone inlay. Bronze weaponry production flourished in western Asia, the Aegean, and Mainland Greece from the 2nd millennium BC to about 700 BC, when it was gradually replaced by iron. Swords, spears, and arrows were important symbols of war in Greek Bronze Age societies and served as powerful reminders that authority rested in the hands of those who could earn it. Superb condition, on a custom-made stand. Size: L:330mm; 145g. Provenance: Property of a West London gentleman; previously in a collection formed on the UK/International art market in the 1990s.

c. 900-1100 AD. Viking age. An iron bearded axe head with an elongated, heavy blade and a round socket. The bearded axe, or Skeggøx (from Old Norse Skegg, "beard", and øx, "axe") was common from the 6th century AD onwards in Scandinavia, but made most famous by the Vikings, who used these axes in battle to terrible effect. Bearded axes are named for the fact that the main part of the axe blade extends below the butt of the axe, creating a large cutting blade and allowing a fighter to hook onto the shields or weapons of his (or her) opponents. Further information on Viking axes can be found in Petersen, Jan (1919). De Norske Vikingesverd. Kristiania. Good condition; on a custom made stand. Size: H:205mm/L:160mm/H:190mm (without stand); 1130g. Provenance: From the private collection of an Essex gentleman; previously in an old British Collection, formed in the 1980s.
2nd-early 1st Millennium BC. Greek Bronze Age. Lot of three bronze spearheads; 1) spearhead with a leaf-shaped, lentoid-section blade with a wide raised midrib, short neck and short tang; 2) spearhead with a triangular, lentoid-section blade with a raised midrib, short neck and tang; 3) arrowhead with triangular head, raised midrib and tang. Bronze weaponry production flourished in western Asia, the Aegean, and Mainland Greece from the 2nd millennium BC to about 700 BC, when it was gradually replaced by iron. Swords, spears, and arrows were important symbols of war in Greek Bronze Age societies and served as powerful reminders that authority rested in the hands of those who could earn it. Good condition. Size: L:40-103mm; 35g. Provenance: Private London collection, formed since the 1980s on the UK and European art market.
c. 900-1100 AD. Viking age. An iron bearded axe head with a heavy blade and a round socket. Etched decoration on one side includes a star motif and undulating lines, and on the other a hatched design and further undulating lines. The bearded axe, or Skeggøx (from Old Norse Skegg, "beard", and øx, "axe") was common from the 6th century AD onwards in Scandinavia, but made most famous by the Vikings, who used these axes in battle to terrible effect. Bearded axes are named for the fact that the main part of the axe blade extends below the butt of the axe, creating a large cutting blade and allowing a fighter to hook onto the shields or weapons of his (or her) opponents. Further information on Viking axes in general can be found in Petersen, Jan (1919). De Norske Vikingesverd. Kristiania. Good condition; on a custom made stand.

1200-800 BC, Greek Archaic Period. A bronze sword with a pointed, lanceolate-shaped, bevelled blade with flaring shoulder and a short tang with a perforation and pin for affixing the blade to a pommel. This item is mounted on a stand. Bronze weaponry production flourished in western Asia, the Aegean, and Mainland Greece from the 2nd millennium BC to about 700 BC, when it was gradually replaced by iron. Swords, spears, and arrows were important symbols of war in Greek Bronze Age societies and served as powerful reminders that authority rested in the hands of those who could earn it. Superb condition. Size: L:430mm; 316g. Provenance: Property of an Oxfordshire art professional; previously in an old British collection, formed in the 1980s on the UK / International art markets.
C. 600 BC. Late Archaic Greece. A beautiful iron sword with a tapering, bevelled blade, a raised midrib, and two deep, decorative fullers or “blood grooves”, and an integral with perforation for affixing decoration such as a bone, stone, or ivory inlay. Weapons such as this sword are powerful reminders that authority rested in the hands of those who could earn it. In a world where each Greek city state was fiercely independent and could only be sustained through the military power of its male inhabitants weapons such as this beautiful sword, which may have belonged to an elite soldier, perhaps a hoplite or a Spartiate, were symbols of wealth and power. Good condition; on a custom-made stand. Size: L:460mm / W:50mm ; 446g. Provenance: Property of a professional London art expert; obtained from an old British collection formed in the 1990s.

c. 900-1100 AD. Viking age. An excellent example of an iron bearded axehead with a heavy curved blade, a round socket and rectangular flanges. The bearded axe, or Skeggøx (from Old Norse Skegg, "beard", and øx, "axe") was common from the 6th century AD onwards in Scandinavia, but made most famous by the Vikings, who used these axes in battle to terrible effect. Bearded axes are named for the fact that the main part of the axe blade extends below the butt of the axe, creating a large cutting blade and allowing a fighter to hook onto the shields or weapons of his (or her) opponents.

Size: H:145mm/L:105mm/H:100mm (without stand); 415g. Provenance: From an old British collection formed in the 1990s; previously acquired in Germany.
Artist: Diane Arbus (American, 1923-1971). Title: "Jewish Giant at Home with His Parents in the Bronx, New York [Eddie Carmel]". Medium: Original photogravure. Date: Composed 1970. Printed 1978. Dimensions: Overall size: 15 3/4 x 11 5/8 in. (400 x 295 mm). Image size: 10 1/16 x 9 15/16 in. (256 x 252 mm).Lot Note(s): Stamped with the photographer's name, verso. High-grade archival paper. Ample margins. Fine, qualty printing. Very good to fine condition. Comment(s): According to “Gordon’s Photography Prices” the auction record for a silver print of this image is $583,500 realized at Christie's, New York, 5/17/2017, lot #25B. This is one of Arbus’s most famous pictures and one of her best-known subjects – a ‘Jewish giant’ named Eddie Carmel. Carmel worked in carnival sideshows and as an actor in monster B-movies. Arbus photographed him a number of times and described the family dynamics: "The parents are orthodox and repressive and disapprove of his carnival career … When he stands with his arms around each he looks like he would gladly crush them. They fight terribly in an utterly typical fashion which seems only exaggerated by their tragedy." True to her description, this could be a conventional family portrait, were it not for the apparent look of fear in Mrs. Carmel’s face as she looks up at her son, who stands cramped and bowed by the traditional family sitting room (courtesy National Galleries of Scotland). A wonderful article on this photograph and the relationship between Arbus and The Jewish Giant can be found here: http://www.nytimes.com/2014/04/13/arts/design/diane-arbus-recorded-a-bronx-familys-unsettling-dynamic.html?_r=0.

Comment(s): Although this work is often catalogued as a lithograph, or silkscreen, or pochoir, or photo-lithograph, in reality it is none of these. By 1964 Guenther Dietz, the printer, had created a unique fine printing system which involved the use of both lithographic plates and serigraphic screens. He and master printers from his company (Guenther Dietz Offizin Handpresse GmbH, Munich & Lengmoos, Germany) printed this work under the direct supervision and participation of Picasso himself. Dietz used grease crayon, lithographic tusche, lead pencil, and charcoal, among others, to create the matrixes and receive Picasso’s approval to print the edition (Cramer, ‘Livres’ 148).

In 2017 the throttle bodies were upgraded to contactless and refurbished by Maserati Shed who later carried out a £4,000 service which included cambelt change and new suspension arms. The mileage of 74,135 is supported by an extensive and detailed service history which includes the service book, a file of invoices and MoTs.
1934 MG PAMake: MGModel: PAYear: 1934Mileage: Contact AuctioneerVIN: PA1378Registration: VJ6790Configuration: Right hand driveTransmission: Manual847cc, overhead cam, 4 cylinder and twin SU.

It is finished in light and dark Cambridge and Oxford blues with matching upholstery and trim. We have been advised that the car was used in driving tests at Brooklands in 1935 and in Hill Climbs with the Midland Car Club in 1936. Little history is known after this time until the car was sold for restoration at auction in 1995 and returned to the road in 1997. The same owner retained the car from 1995 until 2019 when acquired by the vendor. It comes complete with a history file containing early correspondence between the original owner and the MG factory, receipts, letters, various MoTs and tax discs. Although it has had little use recently it is described by the vendor as running well. Benefits from new Blockley tyres on the front.

1967 Morris Mini Traveller 1275 Downton Cooper 'S' SpecificationMake: Morris Model: Mini Traveller 1275 Downton Cooper 'S' SpecificationYear: 1967Mileage: Contact AuctioneerVIN: MAW4927668Registration: RRK689EConfiguration: Right hand driveTransmission: ManualPurchased new by a Mr Deith of Woodford Green, a keen amateur rally driver, this Traveller was promptly prepared for competition use with the fitment of a MK III 1,275 S Cooper engine with thick flange block and retaining the original one and a quarter SU carbs. In July 1970, the car was despatched to world renowned Downton Engineering, the BMC performance tuning and rally conversion specialists, who uprated the car to their Downton No. 3 conversion. It is believed that following several years of competition use, the car was placed into storage and virtually forgotten about. Fast forward to early 2016 when we, at ACA, were contacted by an Essex based storage company regarding the potential sale of a Mini they wished to dispose of in order to cover outstanding storage fees. After recognising the Cooper S engine and looking through the paperwork, we realised that we had found a very special car. Purchased by the vendor at our June 2016 auction, an extensive, no expense spared programme of restoration works commenced. This included a full engine rebuild by former Downton engineer, Steve Harris, when it was upgraded to a documented Downton Stage 5 conversion and full gearbox rebuild. We have been advised that well in excess of £20,000 was spent including full professional re-spray. Other noteworthy features include Dunlop alloys, triple front spotlights, additional instrumentation, map light, sports seats, heated windscreen, re-trimmed seats, Morris Cooper S badges and Downton Engineering roundels. The history file includes restoration invoices and images, older V5, a few rally documents and images and the original Downton receipt dated 1970.
