John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich (1718-1792), twenty one Autograph Letters Signed, as First Lord of the Admiralty, circa 1774-1781, sent during his third term as First Lord of the Admiralty, Royal Navy, American Revolutionary War period, all signed "Sandwich", all but one headed "Hinchingbrook", i.e. Hinchingbrooke House, Huntingdon, formerly the home of the Earls of Sandwich, all concerning naval matters, two of the letters with integral address panel addressed to "George Jackson Esqr.", presumably being Sir George Jackson, 1st Bt. (1725-1822), deputy secretary of Admiralty and first clerk, marine department, November 1766-June 1782, all on bifold watermarked chain laid paper (24 x 37.5cm unfolded), watermark Fleur-de-lis in shield, surmounted by crown, over a bell, (Strasbourg lily), lettered "JUBB" in bell, others lettered "LVG", letters include "Hinchingbrook Dec. 30. 1774 Dear Sir, I must desire that orders be immediately given for the Romney to be fitted for a voyage to Newfoundland, and to receive a Commodore; she is now in the dock & will soon be put out which makes it necessary that these orders be given without loss of time. I am your most obedient Humble servant Sandwich"; another 1½pp, headed Hinchingbrook Dec. 24. 1775, "Dear Sir, I am to thank you for the accounts you have sent me, tho' they are by no means pleasant ones. Should not the order to the Navy Board for taking up transports for 5000 men have mentioned that they were to be sent to America. Captain Burt of the marines is going to relieve the captain of marines in Admiral Mann's ship, he will write to the board to have a postage in the ship that carries George Jackson esqr. The act of Parliament & Proclamation to the Mediterranean, which request I could wish be granted. I am your most obedient humble servant Sandwich"; another 3½pp, headed Hinchingbrook Dec. 26 1775 "Dear Sir, I have answered great part of the letter from you this morning, in one I have just dispatched to Mr Jackson. The Fox & Greyhound must be kept for North America, as their Captains have particularly requested that voyage, therefore the Boreas & Seaford may go to Jamaica & the Leeward Islands, & the Milford be the first or second ship to Boston. I suppose there can now be no objection to our having orders for an additional number of transports, I have therefore written to Lord Suffolk to tell him that he may send us his Majesty's commands on that subject as soon as he pleases. I approve what you propose about docking the Romney, Surprize[?] & Martin, & sending the Alborough immediately to Gibraltar. If we are pressed for seamen for any of our outward bound ships we might take a few from the Surprize & Martin, & possibly a few more from the Romney. Captain Hamilton's account of the state of things at Quebec gives me spirits, and I most exceedingly approve of every part of his behaviour, I agree with you that if the place is saved it will be entirely owing to the arrival of the Lizard. As it is of the utmost importance that we should be as early as possible in our relief, which must be done by throwing in men and provisions, I wish you would let me know your ideas what ships should be got ready for that service, & when they should sail; the Isis & Rainbow seem very proper for the purpose, & I think may be ready in time, I have therefore written to Mr Jackson to put the Catter into commission; and you will be so good as to give the proper directions for getting them to Spithead as soon as possible. I wish you would see Lt. George Germaine upon the subject of the relief of Quebec, and let me know what passes between you. It is absolutely necessary that Sir Peter Parker should be apprized that it is not intended he should have the appointment of officers, otherwise something disagreeable will happen between him and Admiral Shouldham; when I saw him the day before he left London, he had not the least idea that he had any pretension to make Officers, I hope therefore he will be set right in this point before he leaves the land, or by the ships that follow him. What forwardness is the Carcass in, shall you be able to get her to join the squadron before they sail from Cork, and is the storeship and Hospital ship yet got to Spithead? I am most faithfully yours Sandwich"; another 1½pp, headed Hinchingbrook, Jan. 1st. 1775 (but January 1st 1776) "Dear Sir, I have written to Sir H. Palliser upon the subject of the Triton, & the victualling ship that proves leaky. I take for granted we must approve of what is proposed by the victualling board, relative to the supplying the ships at Nova Scotia with fresh provisions. I enclose a letter from Captain O'Hara desiring to quit his ship, you will therefore inform him that he has leave to retire; and appoint Captain Wilkinson to succeed him. If the Captain Smith is the person who sold his ship in America when Commodore Gambier commanded there, he & I shall not easily make up our quarrel. I am very sincerely yours Sandwich you will of course open all my letters directed to Mr Stephens."; others content re sending ships to Boston and Quebec, various other similar naval matters such as preparation of ships, posting of personnel, increasing of number of marines per company and consequent shortage of officers, agreeing or denying permission for leave for various persons, meeting with gentlemen from the India Company, money to be sent to North America, appointments/promotions, etc etc, these letters all dated 1774-1776, another letter indistinctly dated 31[?] Dec. 1781[?], headed "Blackheath Monday night", 1¼ "Dear Sir, as the account of the Agamemnon's success comes directly from the Captain of one of the Kings ships, I think allmost the whole of his letter should be printed in tomorrow nights gazette; therefore I could wish that no extract of it had been sent to the morning papers, but I fear it is too late to stop that arrangement. I shall be in town in good time tomorrow morning, when I will give directions about the other papers I have just received from you. I am most sincerely yours Sandwich". The 4th Earl of Sandwich served three non-consecutive terms as First Lord of the British Admiralty between 1748-1782, including his last which coincided with the British response to the American Revolution. Lord Sandwich was one of Captain Cook's greatest sponsors and the names of Sandwich, Hinchingbrook, and nearby were given to islands in the south seas in recognition. Sandwich is also known for the claim that he was the eponymous inventor of the sandwich. There are various accounts of why Montagu invented the modern day sandwich, which, in the eighteenth century, he ate as a slab of salt beef between two pieces of toast. Montagu's detractors maintain that he favoured the sandwich because it enabled him to stay longer at the gaming tables; an alternative view put forward by his proponents suggest that Sandwich's commitments to the navy, to politics, and to the arts mean that the first sandwich was more likely to have been consumed at his work desk.

Another example of Jaguar's late-1950s, long-legged, 3.4-litre Drophead Coupé, sympathetically restored and beautifully presented. The XK150 was the final incarnation of the XK series and it appeared in May 1957, as either a Fixed or Drophead Coupé. A more refined and capable machine than its predecessors, the 150 was noticeably different from earlier versions of the XK theme with a higher scuttle and door line, whilst the radiator grille reverted to the thinner slats of the XK120 but was altogether wider. The bumpers were deeper and wrapped around, a curved windscreen replaced the divided one on the XK120 and 140 and much needed servo-assisted Dunlop disc brakes were fitted at each corner. However, the XK150 retained much of the mechanical layout of the 140, sharing the same 3.4-litre DOHC Jaguar straight-six, which developed 180bhp at 5,750rpm.On offer here today we have an original, UK-registered XK150 3.4 Drophead Coupé that has been extensively restored from the chassis up. Purchased by the present owner in 1989, the XK was in need of some serious TLC and a comprehensive restoration was commenced, the result of which can clearly be seen in our images. Now finished in gleaming Signal Red with a black leather interior and chrome wire wheels, the quality of fit and finish is simply exceptional. That level of attention to detail was not restricted to the car's cosmetics as the Jaguar is also mechanically superb throughout with some desirable touches incorporated such as dual exhausts, spotlights and overdrive.The car is accompanied by a comprehensive history file detailing the build and subsequent trips throughout the UK and Europe. A pleasant surprise are the pages of handwritten notes that are a delight and something so rarely seen today. Look further through the documentation and you will find numerous invoices and associated paperwork from the likes of VSE, Forward Engineering, Aldridge Trimming, Motor Wheel Services and M&C Wilkinson, names that have become part of the UK Jaguar scene over the years and are renowned for their expertise and knowledge and indicative of our vendor's emphasis on having each aspect of the car's restoration dealt with by the appropriate expert.Your early inspection is welcomed and encouraged to fully appreciate the quality on offer here at a very sensible estimate.Specification Make: JAGUAR Model: XK150 DHC Year: 1959 Chassis Number: 827199 Registration Number: 843 UMY Transmission: Manual - Overdrive Engine Number: 5023 Drive Side: Right-hand Drive Make: RHD Interior Colour: Black HideClick here for more details and images
