(lower left)oil on canvas127.8 x 102.2cm (50 5/16 x 40 1/4in).Footnotes:ProvenanceCollection of Sir John ThornycroftWith Agnews, London (both according to a label on the reverse)Admiral George Legge, 1st Baron Dartmouth (circa 1647-1691) held various commissions in the Navy and Army during the Third Anglo-Dutch War and was appointed Governor of Tangier in 1683 to oversee the evacuation of the English colony, when he was assisted by Samuel Pepys as his secretary and Pepys's diary of the period, published under the title Tangier Papers, gives a revealing insight into Dartmouth's problems and personality at this time. Despite being a staunch Protestant Legge was a loyal supporter of the Duke of York, whom he served in the Navy and when the Duke succeeded his brother as King James II in 1685, Dartmouth's command of the fleet that failed to prevent William of Orange's invasion, and thereby the 'Glorious Revolution' of 1788, went on to guarantee his place in history.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: * TP* VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.TP Lot will be moved to an offsite storage location (Cadogan Tate, Auction House Services, 241 Acton Lane, London NW10 7NP, UK) and will only be available for collection from this location at the date stated in the catalogue.

Grindley to foot of endpaper, original cloth, shelf-lean, crease to spine, extremities rubbed, Ivor Nicholson & Watson, 1933; and an archive of material relating to Chapman, comprising his army book with records of service, his commission, a letter from the War Office and numerous photograph of Chapman from the period of the war and earlier, v.s. (sm.qty)⁂ A remarkable copy of this rare memoir, inscribed by the author and signed by 26 men who presumably also served in the Royal Fusiliers along with an interesting archive including Chapman's record of service with ribbons and notes on dates of major battles. Guy Chapman (1889-1972) trained as a lawyer but enlisted with the Royal Fusilier at the outbreak of the First World War. He was badly injured in a mustard gas attack in 1917 but returned to the front until the Armistice in 1918. His memoir is often esteemed as one of the most insightful to come from the war and we are unable to trace other examples of the first edition, let alone one with such excellent inscriptions.

WW1 8th Battalion East Surrey Regiment Killed in Action 1st Day of the Somme Medal Pair, Famous for Dribbling Football’s Towards the German Trenches During the Attack on Montauban on 1st July 1916, the pair consists of British War and Victory medals awarded to “5150 PTE J BUCKLE E SURR R”. Medals remain in good overall condition. Private John Buckle was born in 1893, he was from Rougham, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk. He served with the 8th Battalion East Surrey regiment in France from 27th July 1915, he is also entitled to the 1914-15 star. He was killed in action on the 1st July 1916, the first day of the battle of the Somme and is remembered on the Thiepval Memorial. The 8th Battalion East Surrey regiment were tasked with attacking Montauban. Whilst on leave in the UK, a Captain W P Nevill purchased two footballs and took them back to the front line with him. On the eve of the attack, he gave the balls out and instructed his men that they would kick the balls across no mans land on the advance to the German trenches, an extract from a letter written at the time gives the following details, “There were two footballs, and on one was painted ‘The Great European Cup – Tie Final East Surreys v Bavarians Kick off at zero’. On the other in large letters was this “NO REFEREE”, which was W’s way of telling them men they needn’t treat the Hun too gently”. The Gallant East Surreys gives the following account, “The captain on one of the companies had provided four footballs, one for each platoon, urging them to keep up dribbling competition all the way over the mile and a quarter of ground they had to traverse. As the company formed on emerging from the trench, the platoon commanders kicked off, and the match against death commenced. The gallant captain himself fell early in the charge, and men began to drop rapidly under the hail of machine-gun bullets. But still the footballs were booted onwards, with hoarse cries of encouragement or defiance, until they disappeared in the dense smother behind which the Germans were shooting. Then, when the bombs and bayonets had done their work, and the enemy had cleared out, the Surrey men looked for their footballs, and recovered two of them in the captured traverses. These will be sent to the Regimental Depot at Kingston as trophies worth preserving”. This act was picked up by the British media at the time and used as a great political propaganda tool to deflect from the severe losses suffered by the British army during the 1st day of the Battle of the Somme, which has gone down in history as one of the worst military disasters in the history of the British army.
