c.1962 Land Rover Series IIA 109' SAS Military 4x4Registration no. 10 FG 61 (British Army)Chassis no. 25113989D*Built to British Army specification for use by the SAS*Outstandingly original condition*Retains most of its original equipment apart from the weapons*Purchased from marque specialists Dare Britannia Ltd in Washington State*Believed only 1 of 20 remainingFootnotes:Armed forces the world over have been buying the Land Rover since its earliest days, and its chassis plate identifies this military version as a 'Truck, General Service, SAS, ¾ Ton, 4x4, Rover II'. It is painted and equipped for desert operations and would have been supplied, as the chassis plate confirms, to the British Army's elite SAS (Special Air Service).Provided by the British Army's REME (Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers), this vehicle's formidable specification included armament, pyrotechnics, navigation and camping equipment. The armament consisted of two general-purpose machine guns, a Carl Gustav (anti-tank) weapon, two self-loading rifles, three compartment grenade holders, four sets or three smoke dischargers and a signal pistol. Navigation equipment would have included a sun compass, magnetic compass and a theodolite. Communication equipment consisted of Type A43 and A123 radios. Extended vehicle operating range was provided for by two 40-gallon auxiliary fuel tanks. Seats were provided for a commander, driver, and rear gunner, with two additional seats above the rear wheelarches. The suspension was strengthened by fitting heavy-duty springs and shock absorbers. Guards were fitted to both differential housings, and the wheels were shod with large-section sand-tread tyres. The steering was modified by fitting a cylindrical hydraulic steering damper between the left-hand chassis member and a clamp on the steering drag link. Curiously, the Data Summary does not mention the engine, which was the 2.2-litre petrol unit, as seen in this example.Although details of this Land Rover's military career are not known, the SAS saw service in the Dhofar Rebellion (Omani Civil War) of 1963 to 1976 and in the Aden Emergency of 1963 to 1967. Both of these conflicts would have required a vehicle in desert warfare specification like this example. '10 FG 21' appears to have been preserved in remarkably original condition, complete with most of its military equipment apart from the weapons, although the machine gun mounts and smoke dischargers are still in place. This ex-SAS Land Rover was purchased from marque specialist Charles Kellogg III's Dare Britannia Ltd in Washington State in July 2018 and shipped back to the UK. It is not known when it left military service or how long it had been in the USA. Purchase paperwork is on file. There is no shortage of military Land Rovers, but original examples with this one's pedigree and unique specification are rarely offered for sale. A not-to-be-missed opportunity for the discerning military vehicle collector.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Group Captain Gilbert Stuart Martin Insall VC MC signed 1970 The Victoria Cross, National Army cover set with corner mounts into an A4 biography page. On 7 November 1915 near Achiet-le-Grand, France, Second Lieutenant Insall, on patrol in Vickers F.B.5 Gunbus No. 5074 with 1st Class Air Mechanic T. H. Donald, engaged an Aviatik two-seater and forced the German pilot to make a rough landing in a ploughed field. Seeing the air crew scramble out and prepare to fire, Insall dived to 500 ft and his gunner opened fire, whereupon the Germans fled. After dropping an incendiary bomb on the downed German aircraft, Insall flew through heavy fire at 2000 ft over enemy trenches. The Vickers' petrol tank was hit, but Insall brought the plane 500 yards back inside Allied lines for an emergency landing. Insall and Donald stayed by the Gunbus through a bombardment of about 150 shells while awaiting nightfall. After dark, they then set to work by torch light to salvage their plane. After they repaired the machine overnight, Insall flew them back to base at dawn. Good Condition. All autographed items are genuine hand signed and come with a Certificate of Authenticity. We combine postage on multiple winning lots and can ship worldwide. UK postage from £4.99, EU from £6.99, Rest of World from £8.99.

PEL (Practical Equipment Ltd)Pair of 'Spring' side chairs, model no. SP2, 1930-1931Chromium-plated tubular steel, fabric upholstery.Each: 81 x 40.5 x 59 cmManufactured by PEL, Oldbury, Birmingham, United Kingdom. Each frame with manufacturer's metal roundel embossed PEL.Footnotes:ProvenanceMr & Mrs Blackstone, Bridlington, United Kingdom, 1932Thence by descentAcquired from the above by the present owner, 2000LiteratureDesign For To-day, December 1935, n.p. for an advertisementDennis Sharp, Tim Benton and Barbie Campbell Cole, Pel and Tubular Steel Furniture of the Thirties, London, 1977, pp. 28, 37Barbie Campbell Cole and Tim Benton, Tubular Steel Furniture, London, 1979, p. 64Practical Equipment Limited (PEL)Cycling to the Bauhaus on his Adler bicycle in 1925, German architect Marcel Breuer was struck by its strength, lightness and flexibility: the right qualities, he thought, for a chair designed for the modern home. With the help of a local plumber, a tubular steel frame was created which formed the outline of a traditional club chair. Strips of canvas were stretched between the frame to form armrests, a back and seat; the first tubular steel chair came into being. Now with a sleek chromium frame and leather instead of canvas, the Wassily chair – named after Breuer's friend, the painter Wassily Kandinsky – is still in production.In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, metal furniture was only used in industrial and commercial settings such as factories and offices and, for reasons of hygiene, in hospitals and for the manufacture of bedsteads. During the First World War, there were rapid leaps forward in technology. In the aviation industry, for example, there were design innovations in plywood and tubular steel to make stronger and lighter aircraft. After the war, these industries looked for peacetime applications to keep their manufacturing plants in business. On the Continent, Thonet, famous for its ubiquitous bentwood café chair, led the way in the design and manufacture of tubular steel chairs, utilising the skills of some of Europe's leading architects including Walter Gropius, Mies van der Rohe, Le Corbusier, Charlotte Perriand, Mart Stam, and Josef Hoffmann as well as Breuer.Thonet opened a showroom in London in 1929 and two of the company's tubular steel chairs were used in the spectacular steel and glass foyer of the Strand Palace Hotel designed by Oliver Percy Bernard in 1930 (now in the V&A Museum). In early 1931, the chairs were spotted by Captain Carew and Major Huggins, directors of Tube Investments, a consortium of Midlands' steel tube manufacturers. They immediately saw the potential of opening up a new market for their product. Practical Equipment Ltd, later known as Pel, was established in Oldbury, near Birmingham, in July 1931. Bernard was appointed as consultant. Although he was responsible for many of the initial Pel products, several designs were blatantly plagiarised from Thonet's catalogues. Thonet had previously refused to license its tubular steel furniture designs for manufacture in the UK and, in the years following, there were to be a number of patent disputes.Early Pel products were designed for an upmarket, avant-garde clientele and a smart showroom was opened in Henrietta Street in Covent Garden in December 1931. The company first exhibited at the Ideal Home exhibition in 1932. Although tubular steel furniture was treated with caution by some elements of the press – 'a large number of people still regard it as too cold and severe', according to the Cabinet Maker (16 April 1932) – orders flooded in from the design elite: McKnight Kauffer, Marion Dorn, Betty Joel amongst others. Department stores such as Heals and Harrods sold Pel furniture and the Army & Navy Stores exported vast amounts of Pel bedroom and dining room furniture to India to supply the British Raj. Pel also became popular with India's native rulers and found its way into the palaces of progressive maharajas.It was the commercial contracts, however, which would generate profits for Pel. During the 1930s, Pel furniture was to be seen in the UK's most stylish buildings and interiors: hotels such as the Savoy and Claridge's, the controversial De La Warr Pavilion at Bexhill-on-Sea designed by Erich Mendelsohn and Serge Chermayeff, Wells Coates' luxury flats at Embassy Court in Brighton and the foyers of Odeon cinemas. Pel had worked with Chermayeff and Coates on a key commercial contract at the very start of the company. The BBC aimed to use only products manufactured in Britain or the Commonwealth in the furnishing of their new building, Broadcasting House in Langham Place, London, which opened in 1932. Raymond McGrath was responsible for the interiors and he commissioned furniture from Chermayeff and Coates, much of which was manufactured by Pel. McGrath ordered Pel's RP6 stacking chair in large numbers for the BBC studios and the chair became a standard feature in BBC buildings around the world. After the Second World War, the RP6 proved to be Pel's most successful product and, in the 1950s and 1960s, it was to be found in schools and village halls all over the UK.The company survived into the twenty-first century, focusing on the manufacture of stadium seating. But, after a series of takeovers and bankruptcies, the Pel name disappeared.Lot nos. 1-8 were purchased by Mr Blackstone, managing director of the Bridlington Steam Laundry, at the 1932 Ideal Home exhibition to furnish the Sun Room of his new home, Cragg Hill in Bridlington, which was completed in the same year.© Richard WilcockThis lot is subject to the following lot symbols: TPTP Lots denoted with a 'TP' 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.
