A 1964 Triumph TRW, registration number 961 KAC, frame number 28984NA, silver. Ex Royal Signals White Helmet Display Team. The TRW was developed in the immediate post war WWII years to fulfil the demands of the British Military Contracts for a no nonsense and robust work horse motorcycle. They followed traditional lines with a side valve parallel twin 500cc displacement engine, telescopic front forks and rigid frame. Many were subsequently offered to the general public at the end of their service life. This particular TRW was supplied on loan by Triumph to the world famous Royal Signals White Helmet Display Team. The vendor advises us that the Triumph received a new works replacement engine when the bike was returned for service after the first season. It still retains this engine today and carries the original engine number. He further advises us that the motorcycle is presented in good older restored condition. The Triumph will be offered for auction with a copy of the works record confirming its White Helmet Display Team status, photographs of the bike in action, an original white helmet and miscellaneous items. Coming direct from the serviceman, who rode this bike in period, it offers the next custodian an opportunity to own a piece of motorcycle history.

A 1978 Cotton 250cc LCRS ex junior TT road racer, unregistered, red.

The bike was subsequently sold to John Baker who rode the road racer until the mid 1980s where upon the machine went into storage. It was purchased by our vendor in 2004. On acquiring the Cotton it was found to be in a sorry state and a full restoration was carried out, including a rebuild of the water cooled Rotax engine and six speed gearbox. Since completing the restoration the vendor has used the Cotton on various parade laps at classic motorcycle meetings where it has always been admired. No accompanying paperwork See illustrations

A 2007 Triumph Bonneville T100 scrambler, registration number WA07 AYS, white and red. This very low mileage (1,100 miles from new) Bonneville was originally supplied by Total Triumph, Wellington, Somerset to it's original owner a Mr Geoffrey Wood from Cullompton, Devon. Mr Tooze (deceased) purchased the Triumph in 2015 from Treen Motors Crediton, with ownership passing on to Mr Tooze's widow who registered the Triumph in her name on 19/3/2016. The T100 has been in dry storage since September 2016 and will require recommissioning, but having such a low mileage and previous good upkeep hopefully this should prove straightforward. The Triumph is currently fitted with low level exhaust pipes but the standard high level pipes and heat shields are present should the next owner wish to fit them. The T100 is offered for sale with its original dealer pack, bill of sale, pre-delivery inspection form, SORNs and sundry paperwork. V5C, no MOT See illustration

A 1980 Honda C90, registration number NLC 324V, red. With less than 8000 miles from new, this original C90 has had four owners from new. Our vendor says the overall condition and in particular the original paint work is of note. There is however, a dent/crease on the rear tail light bracket. The Honda has its original tool kit, lots of documentation including owners handbook, service book, old tax discs and copy of the original vehicle registration document. Originally supplied to its first owner who resided in Ealing, London, most of the recorded mileage would appear to have been completed by the first owner. The vendor was advised by the widow of the original owner that the bike was discovered in the basement when clearing out the house and sold back to the original supplying dealer. The dealer sold the Honda to the third owner in March 2012 and our vendor purchased the bike direct from him in June 2017 in non-running condition. With fresh fuel and a recharged battery the bike was up and running and sailed through its MOT which it passed with flying colours. V5C, MOT to July 2018 See illustration

A 1940 Indian Chief, registration number MMK 9, red. Is there a more iconic shape in American motorcycle history than the fully skirted Indian Chief. They are instantly recognisable and very collectable today. They even appealed to movie stars with the one and only Steve McQueen owning a 1940s example for many years. This Chief, we have the pleasure in offering for auction, has been restored to an excellent standard by Nick De Bidaph (the son of Sybil and Michael who founded the Indian Riders Club (GB)). It still retains its original and valuable registration number which was issued in 1946. Having formed part of a private collection the vendor has taken the decision to dispose of the Indian because he feels it is not getting the use it deserves. This iconic American beast will be accompanied to auction with a history file and offers the next custodian an opportunity to purchase a fully restored example which is ready to be shown or ridden.

British Isles. Blaeu (Willem J.), Magnae Britanniae et Hiberniae tabula, published Amsterdam, circa 1630, hand coloured carte-a-figures map with vertical margins of costumed figures and six oval vignettes of the principal cities along the upper horizontal margin, trimmed with slight loss to vertical strapwork margins, skillfully extended and replaced in facsimile, 460 x 545 mm, no text to verso R. W. Shirley. Early Printed Maps of the British Isles 1477 - 1650, no. 411. A re-issue of Jodocus Hondius's 1625 plate, who in turn had copied a Visscher prototype from a few years earlier. The only alteration to the plate seems to be the replacement of the Hondius imprint with that of Willem Blaeu. Somewhat anachronistically even the protrait of James I (who died in 1625) remains in the upper left corner. Uncommon. (1)

Pakistan. Ptolemy (Claudius & Holle Lienhart), published Ulm, [1482 - 1486], woodcut map of modern day Pakistan and Afganistan, contemporary hand colouring, displayed on a trapezoidal projection, small repaired marginal tear to upper margin, trimmed at base with slight loss to printed image, replaced in facsimile, 415 x 550 mm, Latin text on verso Lienhart Holle published a revised edition of Ptolemy's Geographia in 1482. The atlas would prove to be ruinously expensive and his business would go bankrupt shortly after publication. The remaining stock of maps, woodblocks and the types passed to Johann Reger in Ulm, who reissued the work in 1486. The main difference between the two editions is that the 1482 state has a deep blue colour in the sea, whereas in the 1486 edition the sea is a soft brown. (1)

He was Organist of Worcester Cathedral from 1895 to 1897, having been Acting Organist before that time. Edward Elgar dedicated his cantata The Black Knight to Blair, who was conductor of the Worcester Festival Choral Society, which gave the first performance on 18 April 1893, at a time when Elgar was little known outside Worcestershire. Blair also asked Elgar to write an organ voluntary for the visit of some American organists to Worcester, and received Elgar's first Organ Sonata as a result (with the opening theme being reminiscent of a theme from The Black Knight).

*Boswell (James, 1740-1795). Autograph letter signed, 'James Boswell', Edinburgh, 1 February 1768, to Catharine Macaulay, informing her that he has forwarded her pamphlet on Hobbes to Paoli, and passing on Paoli's high opinion of the work for its constitutional insights and as a corrective to the current fashion for monarchy, 'he writes to me thus: Le ossereazioni sopra dell'Hobbes servono a meraviglia per guarire i Spiriti troppo prevenati a favor della Monarchia...', going on to tell Mrs Macauley that although he did not at first tell Paoli who the author of the pamphlet was he has now done so and 'ventured to assure him that the Lady will continue her correspondence. Such publick addresses from Great Britain do honour both to this country and to Corsica; and were it not that we are in general dead to nobleness of sentiment, there would be many more zealous friends of the brave Islanders', some age toning, half of one line from top margin neatly cut away removing a few words of Italian to first line of verso, a few short splits to folds, 2 pages with integral address leaf and seal, 4to Catharine Macaulay (1731-1791) was an English historian and political thinker. She was associated with two political groups in the 1760s and 1770s, the Real Whigs and the Wilkites, being more interested in polemic than everyday strategy. She was a supporter of the exiled Corsican Filippo Antonio Pasquale di Paoli (1725-1807), who was to oversee the Corsican resistance following the French conquest of Corsica in 1768. In London, Paoli gained the attention of Samuel Johnson and his circle and Boswell himself became so zealous in his support of Paoli that he donned full Corsican attire when he attended the Shakespeare Jubilee festivities at Stratford in 1769. Paoli also stayed with Mrs Macaulay during his visit to England in the autumn of 1769. The pamphlet by Catharine Macauley to which the letter alludes is 'Loose Remarks on Certain Positions to be found in Mr Hobbes's "Philosophical Rudiments of Government and Society", with a Short Sketch of a Democratical Form of Government, in a Letter to Signor Paoli', 1767. A second edition was published in 1769. In this work she rebuts Hobbes's purely political conception of the state and counters it with her own more moralised conception of the nature of political authority. Her most philosophical work, 'A Treatise on the Immutability of Moral Truth', 1783, was a major influence on the thinking of Mary Wollstonecraft. See also lot 2. (1)
