CHAGALL MARC: (1887-1985) Russian-French Artist. Vintage signed Greetings card, the stiff white folding 8vo card with a printed greeting in French (‘Avec nos meilleurs Voeux de Bonheur’) to the inside. Chagall has penned a lengthy note to the inside, ‘We are spending a week together and quite happy. Am thinking of you and wishing you all the joy and happiness in 1957. It’s wonderful to see father with the children!’ Signed (‘Marc’) at the foot alongside a small original drawing of a heart and arrow. The card also bears the names of Chagall’s wife, Vava Brodsky, his daughter Ida, and two other relatives. The front cover of the card features what appears to be an original black pen and ink sketch by Chagall, the image depicting a pair of running legs with a single hand holding a wispy bouquet. VG

An iron painted shop sign, early 20th century, probably by Edwin Lutyens, 1869-1944 depicting an Archer with bow and arrow, 56cm high. Edward Lutyens (1869-1944) In the early 1930's Sir Edwin Lutyens was requested to design an extension to the village of Cockington, Devon, in keeping with the existing thatched cottages. It was planned to include an Inn, shops and accommodation. Mainly due to the second world war only the Inn was ever built, however the village shop signs were also made. The signs were made in the old forge by the blacksmith Mr Bill Bradford. Lutyens first grooved out onto a plain sheet of metal the designs and then passed them onto the blacksmith.

A rare de la Rive tube electrostatic charged particle stream demonstration... A rare de la Rive tube electrostatic charged particle stream demonstration vacuum tube Harvey and Peak, London, late 19th century The barrel-shaped glass body fitted with cylindrical brass collar incorporating visible electrode ring to the inside of the chamber around an insulated iron-cored electromagnetic coil insert contained within in a glass sleeve with connection terminals to top surface, the lower section with further fixed brass collar fitted with an internal brass rod electrode with small disc shaped discharge plate, the base with brass valve stamped HARVEY & PEAK over threaded collar fitted to the shallow ogee outline disc-shaped base further stamped with the maker's name above M.O.D. arrow device and the letter I, 44cm (17.25ins) high excluding connection wires; with an 'Electric Egg' electrostatic charged particle discharge gap, Harvey and Peake, late 19th century, the ovoid glass body fitted with brass top collar incorporating sliding rod electrode insert with ring terminal to exterior opposing spherical discharge surface to interior, the lower section with further collar fitted with a conforming fixed electrode, the base with brass valve stamped HARVEY & PEAK over threaded collar fitted to the shallow ogee outline disc-shaped base, minimum height 58cm (22.75ins), (2). Harvey and Peak are listed on the Science Museum website as succeeding W. Ladd and Company trading from Beak Street, London from 1884 and 56 Charing Cross, London from 1891; the company was dissolved in 1899. The 'Electric Egg' discharge gap allows a stream of charged particles to be observed in a partial vacuum with differing gasses. Sometimes referred to as a 'Newton's Egg' (presumably after the firm Newton and Company who were known to have supplied similar examples) such devices were probably initially developed by Humphry Davy who was the first to demonstrate a carbon electrode discharge arc to the Royal Institute of London in 1808, or the Swiss natural philosopher Auguste-Arthur de la Rive who proved in 1820 that arcs can also burn in a vacuum. The de la Rive tube is designed to demonstrate the effect that an electromagnetic field has on a stream of charged particles. When the electromagnet insert is connected to a power supply the particle stream can be seen to rotate in a helical pattern around the insert before discharching into the upper brass collar. The de la Rive tube is probably the earliest form of apperutus to demonstrate how a discharge stream can be manipulated by an electromagnetic field - the underlying principal that eventually led to the development cathode ray tube television screen.

The partnership between John Thwaites and George Jeremiah Reed is recorded in Baillie, G.H. Watchmakers & Clockmakers of the World as being formed in 1808. John Thwaites was the son of Ainsworth Thwaites who was apprenticed in 1735 and worked from Rosoman Row, Clerkenwell, London 1751-80. He was an accomplished maker who supplied the clock for the tower at the Horse Guards Parade. John Thwaites was born in 1757 and took over the business presumably on the death of his father in 1780 before moving to Bowling Green Lane. The firm became well known for supplying all forms of clocks and movements either wholesale for others to retail, or signed by themselves. The partnership continued under John Thwaite's leadership from several addresses in London until his death in 1842. The business has subsequently passed through a series of successors and is still trading today from Rottingdean near Brighton. The current lot appears to be of a pattern devised and supplied by Thwaites and Reed from around 1810-1860 with similar examples housed in the Royal Small Arms clock tower, Enfield; St. Mary Magdeline, Twyning; Uppark House, West Sussex and Holy Trinity, Fareham. The current lot bears repairer's marks suggesting that it was located in or around Moreton-in-Marsh during the 1890's.
