Vintage Egyptian Police Issue Greener 12/14g Shotgun20th century AD. A Greener Mark III Police issue martini-action 12/14 gauge (obsolete calibre and cartridge) shotgun with wood butt (with steel butt plate and compartment) and grip (with steel nosecap), numbered 44071 to underside of lock, fitted with sling swivels, safety catch and rudimentary open sights; bearing British proof and reproof marks and various Egyptian marks to barrel and lock; also marked `GREENER MARK III` to top of barrel, `W W GREENER MAKER / PATENT No 463628/35` in two lines to left side of lock and `E G / MARK III` to right side. 3.6 kg, 106cm (41 3/4"). Ex Essex, UK collector. The Greener 12/14g shotgun resulted from a British Government need for a robust, low maintenance, single shot weapon for Colonial Police use; the weapon also had to serve as a club (hence the heavy steel butt plate and nosecap) and to accept ammunition not readily available in case it fell into the hands of others so the special brass cartridge was designed with both a bottle-neck shape and an annular recess in the base which, combined with two lugs in the breech, made it impossible to close the breech on any other cartridge. Fine condition; FAC not required.

Moloney, Joseph A (medical officer of the expedition) With Captain Stairs to Katanga (1893) 190 x 135; 600 g This ex-library copy of Moloney`s rare and valuable book on Stairs`s Katanga expedition [which ended with the death of Captain Stairs] has been well restored. All the original plates are present but the route map is missing. A 2 pp preface updates the position in and around the expedition area of Central Africa and makes a charge of `criminality` against the Portuguese and German authorities for their `connivance in the smuggling of arms and ammunition by the Arabs`. Half-bound in maroon calf and matching marbled paper-boards. Both boards are extensively rubbed, as are the corners. The original spine cover, with gilt lettering and rules, has been laid down on a new matching leather spine. New decorative endpapers and a new backstrip with head and tail bands have been added so that the binding is again tight. All page edges are gilt. There are neat library stamps at the front, including `not for circulation` on the original front free endpaper. The contents - xiii + 280 pp of text and index + frontispiece and 7 other inserted portraits and other plates on art paper - are unmarked and there is no foxing, just a few small brown stains near the front. Despite the rubbed original upper board, the overall condition is very good. Very Good London Sampson Low, Marston & Co 1893

Captain S L`H Slocum and Captain Carl Reichmann Boer War Operations in South Africa 1899-1901 Quarto #593 of 1000 limited edition, in slipcase which is worn at extremities and rubbed with a shadow stain to one face. Gilt titling to spine and front board of book is largely eroded and barely discernible.Photographic illustrated eps. 325pp. Other than erosion of gilt this would be a fine copy. A rare book. It contains the intelligence reports on the Second Anglo-Boer War of two American military attaches - one travelled with the Boer forces and the other with the British. The war is, therefore, seen from both sides by highly trained observers. It was originally published at the beginning of the century (1900) by the United States Government when its full title was `Boer Operations of the British Army and Allied Operations in China and Manchuria`. The pages for this book, pertaining only to the Boer war have been extracted in facsimle form from that original. This volume contains several unique maps of battles as well as photographs. The two authors: Captain Slocum of the Eighth Cavalry accompanied the British troops and Captain Reichmann of the Seventh Infantry went with the Boers because he could speak Dutch. Slocum linked up with Generals Buller and French in Northern Natal. He gives detailed descriptions of the battles in the area, describing the tactical and military decisions taken behind the scenes as well as the strength of the British forces. He then entered the Free State with Lord Roberts. His comprehensive daily reports on how Roberts Cornered General Cronje at Paardeberg make fascinating reading. All the correspondence between Cronje and Roberts is published. Slocum also describes the relief of Kimberley, the fall of Bloemfontein and the march to Pretoria. Captain Reichmann`s intelligence reports gives one of the most detailed descriptions ever published of the strength of the Boer forces. It is a masterpiece of reporting, starting with the background to the evolvement of the Boer military system. He records the finest details of the Boers` military strength in different districts in the age groups 18 to 34 years, 34 to 50, under 18 and over 50. there is even a complete breakdown of how many rifles and rounds of ammunition were available. Reichmann describes President Steyn`s role in the war and was also fortunate enough to follow that master of guerilla warfare, General Christian de Wet, closely in battle. Of special interest is his following of President Kruger`s train to the Mocambique border and the arduous task General Louis Botha had in providing a safe escort. The book ends with a summary of the war. Because it is a facsimile production, unevenness in print and the wrong spelling of some names will appear exactly as they did in the original edition. The book is certified by the publisher that only 1000 copies were printed and that all origination material and lithographic plates were subsequently destroyed.

Whilst on flying duties, Major Rees sighted what he thought to be a bombing party of our own machines returning home. He went up to escort them, but on getting nearer discovered they were a party of enemy machines, about ten in all. Major Rees was immediately attacked by one of the machines, and after a short encounter it disappeared behind the enemy lines, damaged.Five others then attacked him at long range, but these he dispersed on coming to close quarters, after seriously damaging two of the machines. Seeing two others going westwards, he gave chase to them, but on coming nearer he was wounded in the thigh, causing him to lose temporary control of his machine. He soon righted it, and immediately closed with the enemy, firing at a close-contact range of only a few yards, until all his ammunition was used up. He then returned home, landing his machine safely in our lines.'O.B.E. London Gazette 3.6.1919 Lieut.-Colonel Lionel Wilmot Brabazon Rees, V.C., M.C., A.F.C.

London Gazette 29.10.1915 Captain Lionel Wilmot Brabazon Rees, Royal Artillery and Royal Flying Corps.'For conspicuous gallantry and skill on several occasions, notably the following:On 21st September, 1915, when flying a machine with one machine gun, accompanied by Flight-Serjeant Hargreaves, he sighted a large German biplane with two machine guns 2,000 feet below him. He spiralled down and dived at the enemy, who, having the faster machine, manoeuvred to get him broadside on and then opened heavy fire. In spite of this Captain Rees pressed his attack and apparently succeeded in hitting the enemy's engine, for the machine made a quick turn, glided some distance and finally fell just inside the German lines near Herbecourt.On 28th July he attacked and drove down a hostile monoplane in spite of the fact that the main spar of his machine had been shot through and the rear spar shattered.On 31st August, accompanied by Flight-Serjeant Hargreaves, he fought a German machine more powerful than his own for three-quarters of an hour, then returned for more ammunition and went out to the attack again, finally bringing the enemy's machine down apparently wrecked.'A.F.C.

Regt., 'For conspicuous gallantry on 25th October [1914] near Rue du Bois, when he brought up ammunition under heavy fire from the enemy, who were at a distance of only 30 yards. He behaved with much gallantry on another occasion the same day.'7430 Private Ernest Harry Gratton, D.C.M., served with the 2nd Battalion Leicestershire Regiment, from 1905; he transferred to the 1st Battalion for service during the Great War; the 1st Battalion landed at St. Nazaire, France, 10.9.1914; by the end of September the battalion had taken up positions on the Aisne; on the 19th October the battalion reached Armentières, taking up a defensive position the following day on the Rue du Bois; they were now entrenched to take part in the Battle of Armentières, 22nd October - 2nd November 1914; the Official History Of The War, Military Operations, France And Belgium, Volume I gives the following for the dates that Gratton distinguished himself:"An attack at dawn on the 23rd was bold in the extreme. In the morning mist - and now every morning in Flanders was misty - German officers and men, though beaten off by the 1/Buffs and 1/Leicestershire, reached the parapet of the 1/Shropshire L.I. and the 2/York and Lancaster; most of them were bayoneted on it, but a few actually jumped into the British trenches, and, after hand-to-hand fighting, were killed.In view of the attacks on the 6th Division, the 10th Brigade of the 4th Division took over the front of the 12th Brigade, that is as far as Chapelle d'Armentières, as well as its own, and the 12th was assembled in reserve at the junction of the two divisions. On the 24th this brigade relieved the 17th Brigade, taking over the 6th Division trenches as far as Rue du Bois, so that the 4th Division now had a front of over eight miles.At dawn on the 24th October - the day of the loss and recapture of Polygon Wood further north - the German Sixth Army made another attempt at a general attack on the whole front from the La Bassée Canal to the Lys. Its failure against the II Corps has already been related. It was everywhere repelled in the III Corps, except on the front of the 16th Brigade, which, as it faced south, was specially exposed to enfilade. After a few lucky shots had wiped out some of the trenches, German infantry from the cover of factory buildings penetrated for a time into the line of the 1/Leicestershire, which lost 225 men before the gap was closed. Fighting continued all day and into the night, and at 11pm there was a consultation between Generals Ingouville-Williams and Congreve, commanding the 16th and 18th Brigades. They decided to withdraw the 16th Brigade to the line Touquet - Flamengrie Farm - Rue du Bois, about five hundred yards in rear, which had been prepared, with divisional approval, for occupation should the Germans again attack. Early in the morning of the 25th the enemy did again make desperate efforts to break in, especially against the Leicestershire. The retirement was therefore ordered. Although in close touch with the enemy, the 16th Brigade on the night of the 25th/26th withdrew in heavy rain and pitchy darkness to its new line without interference, and the right of the 18th conformed. The casualties in the 16th Brigade in the four days' fighting... were 28 officers and 557 other ranks.'Subject to 20% VAT on Buyer’s Premium.

Captain Hugh Talbot Burgoyne VC RN (17 July 1833 Ð 7 September 1870) was an Irish recipient of the Victoria Cross, the award resulting from his actions during the Crimean War. On 29 May 1855 in the Sea of Azov, Crimea, Lieutenant Burgoyne of HMS Swallow, with Lieutenant Cecil William Buckley from HMS Miranda and Gunner John Robarts from HMS Ardent, volunteered to land at a beach where the Russian army were in strength. They were out of covering gunshot range of the ships offshore and met considerable enemy opposition, but managed to set fire to corn stores and ammunition dumps and destroy enemy equipment before embarking again. Burgoyne later achieved the rank of captain and was killed when in command of HMS Captain (1869), which capsized off Cape Finisterre during a gale on 7 September 1870. Provenance: by descent through the family.

Military Medal GVI 9405322 Cpl. E.W.Edwards, R.Tank R.), 1939- 45 Star, Africa Star, Italy Star, Defence and War Medal. For Greek Civil War Cpl (later L/Sgt) Edward Wallace Edwards, Royal Tank Corps, served with 50th Royal Tank Regiment as a tank crew/commander through the North Africa and Italy campaigns. Cpl Edwards was awarded the MM and was in the campaign against the Communists in the Greek Civil War. The MM was London Gazette 10.05.1945. The recommendation, like so many for the Greek Civil War, has not been released by the MOD but it does appear in the book `50th Royal Tank Regiment, The Complete History` by Stephen D. Hamilton which states that on New Years Eve 1944: - ""At Athens on the night of 31st Dec/1st January 1944 an attack by the ELAS was made against one of the most forward post of C Squadron`s sector, under the Command of Corporal Edwards. Despite a determined assault the post held firm and suffered no casualties, though inflicting a number on the ELAS. The next morning Corporal Edwards realised that the enemy had occupied the house across the road from his post. Taking two men with him, Edwards attacked the position, breaking into the house they discovered that the ELAS had `mouse holed` from the rear of the building and were preparing to put the house into a state of defence. Determined to clear the position Edwards pressed home his attack. Subsequently two ELAS were killed and a third wounded. Due to Corporal Edwards` aggressive leadership, arms and ammunition had been captured and the ELAS never again attempted to occupy a house near his position"". A 1962 newspaper clipping also comes with the group detailing some of Edwards` exploits in the Desert. Including stating that L/Sgt Edwards was a pre-war regular and has been seriously wounded by burns when his tank was hit. On recovering from his wounds he acted as Montgomery`s driver. GVF (6)
