(1920)) engraved naming, two heavy knocks to obverse, edge bruising, good fine £80-£100 --- The Reverend Frank Dunnage served in France with the 4th New Zealand Infantry Reserve Brigade during the Great War.

Frank Dunnage, C.F., New Zealand Base, France, in which he related the tremendous difficulties under which he and his fellow Anglican chaplains laboured for lack of funds. They have no musical instruments, no furniture nor lights for recreation tents and have to hold all services in the open air except when they can borrow the Salvation Army or Presbyterian huts.’ Concerned at this ‘scandalous state of affairs’, The Reverend Frank Dunnage was soon promised £100 by Mr. F. W. Williams and a further £25 from Hastings parish, to be cabled to France ‘at once’.

Each 38.5cm (15 1/4in) wide. (2).Footnotes:清乾隆（約1769年） 粉彩魯比侯爵卡耶塔諾·皮尼亞特利家族紋章瓷湯盆托盤一對Provenance: an English private collection來源： 英國私人收藏For the arms, see Rocío Díaz, Chinese Armorial Porcelain for Spain, London, 2010, no.20. Díaz notes that the present service, commissioned for Cayetano Pignatelli, Marquis of Rubí, departed Manila in December 1769 and arrived in Cádiz, Spain, in August 1770 aboard the Spanish vessel Buen Consejo. Detailed documentation of this shipment, housed in the General Archive of the Indies (Archivo General de Indias), includes a cargo register listing the Marquis of Rubí's service, along with customs clearance papers submitted in Cádiz. According to these papers, the original service comprised 542 pieces distributed in five crates, though 130 pieces were reported broken upon inspection by officials of the Royal House of Trade in Cádiz. Chinese export porcelain services with such precise documentation are rare, providing scholars with invaluable insights into the vibrant trade between China and the West during the 18th century.Cayetano Pignatelli was born in Barcelona in 1730 and by 1752 had already assumed the title of Marquis of Rubí and the rank of colonel of the Naples Infantry Regiment. In 1764, he participated in an expedition aimed at creating a regular army in New Spain, modelled after European structures. Tasked with inspecting the presidios (garrisons) along the northern frontier, Pignatelli's efforts led to the issuance of the New Regulations for Presidios in 1772. These regulations, based on his recommendations, reorganized Spain's defensive positions from the Gulf of California to the mouth of the Guadalupe River in Texas.See one similar famille rose armorial tureen stand with the same coat-of-arms, Qianlong, which was sold at Christie's London, 30 April 2015, lot 109.

Personally Signed by General Mogg, M S Salter, Rear Admiral F B P Brayne - Nicholls, Vice Admiral Sir Peter Berger, I H Cosby Battle of Britain Pilot. General Sir John Mogg, who has died aged 88 in November 2001, was in his time, probably the British army's most popular general, and finished his career in one of NATO's most influential posts. There he paid more attention to cricket than to his studies, with the result that, instead of taking the entrance exam for Sandhurst, he chose the alternative route of a Y-cadetship in the Coldstream Guards. After three years in the ranks, he was selected for Sandhurst, where he gained the sword of honour in 1936, being commissioned in January 1937 into the Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry (the 43rd and 52nd). Mogg did not see active service in the second world war until, in August 1944, he was chosen to command the 9th battalion of the Durham Light Infantry, which with its armoured personnel carriers, formed part of the 22nd armoured brigade of the 7th division. In operations from Normandy to Hamburg, he was twice mentioned in dispatches and twice awarded the distinguished service order. By then a lieutenant colonel, Mogg attended the first postwar course at the Camberley staff college, from which he was posted as general staff officer grade one (virtual chief of staff) to the 7th armoured division in Germany. He returned to Camberley as a member of the directing staff, before taking command of the 10th battalion of the Parachute Regiment in the Territorial army in 1950, where, in spite of his weight, he became a keen parachutist. That was followed by two years as chief instructor of the school of infantry, and two on the staff of the Imperial Defence College in London. Also enclosed a compliments slip signed by the general.
