RAF Scampton. 1940-43. Autograph Album. 19cm wide x 13cm tall. Green cloth. Over 250 signatures. Worthy of research as this will contain scarce signatures. The British Newspaper Archive mentions all of the variety acts listed in this album (details published in the Lincolnshire Echo). A quick look: a. Full of RAF Gang Show inscriptions (probably the best WW2 collection of Gang Show signatures in one album). Includes: i. Squadron Leader William Henry Ralph Reader. Through the pre-war Gang Shows, Reader became friends with Air Commodore Archibald Boyle, the deputy director of RAF Intelligence. The German Ambassador, Joachim von Ribbentrop, attended the 1938 London Gang Show and invited Reader to visit the Hitler Youth Movement in Germany. Boyle persuaded Reader to become an Intelligence Officer in the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve with the rank of Flight Lieutenant, although the diplomatic situation had deteriorated before he could take up von Ribbentrop's invitation. On the outbreak of war, Boyle sent Reader to France for undercover work, in the guise of running a concert party, for which some former Gang Show members were recruited into the RAF. The show was entitled Ralph Reader and Ten Blokes from the Gang Show and, besides allowing Reader to complete intelligence tasks, had a positive effect on morale. On returning to England, Reader was ordered to expand the Gang Shows, while his visits to RAF stations allowed Reader to monitor subversive propaganda which was a concern of the RAF high command. Reader eventually raised twenty-four RAF Gang Show units and two female WAAF units with a total establishment of nearly four hundred serving personnel. The RAF Gang Shows toured nearly every theatre of war, from Iceland to Burma. By 1944, Gang Show units were estimated to have travelled 100, 000 miles and entertained 3, 500, 000 servicemen. Some of those who served in the RAF Gang Shows would later become well known entertainers, such as Peter Sellers, Tony Hancock, Dick Emery and Cardew Robinson. For his services to the RAF, he was awarded an MBE (Military Division) in 1943. https://en. wikipedia. org/wiki/Ralph_Reader for more detail. ii. Murray Browne, Assistant to Ralph Reader; later Musical Director; later Chairman of the Gang Show committee. Died 1992 aged 84. iii. Douglas (Cardew) Robinson. Joining the RAF in 1939, AC2 Douglas Robinson found himself stationed at Uxbridge, where he quickly found a place in the camp shows. It was in 1941 that Squadron Leader Ralph Reader, arrived at RAF Uxbridge to put on a performance. Robinson seized his chance, did a working audition, and soon found himself posted to RAF Gang Show Unit Number Five. His pre-war experience now came in handy, and he was promoted to Flight-Sergeant and put in charge of the unit. They played at RAF camps all over the country, and when the 'second front' was opened up in Normandy, Unit 5 followed, eventually touring through Belgium and Holland giving concert-party entertainments on the tail-flap of their lorry. A tour of the Far East followed, including a sudden detour when the first atomic bomb was dropped on Japan. https://www. independent. co. uk/news/people/obituary-cardew-robinson-1565861. html for his detailed obituary. b.

(36 x 28 1/4 in.)Footnotes:ProvenanceSir Peter Wakefield & Miss Mary Rose WakefieldWith Austin Desmond Fine Art, London, where purchased by the present ownerPrivate Collection, U.K.ExhibitedLondon, Tate Gallery, Cedric Morris, 28 March-13 May 1984, cat.no.89 (as Flowers in a Brown Jug)LiteratureRichard Morphet, Cedric Morris, Tate Gallery, London, 1984, p.117, cat.no.89 (col.ill, back cover)'I like to think that behind this special painting [flower painting] an esoteric line of thought that expresses itself in symbols portraying the eternity of experience that flowers themselves have' ('Concerning Flower Painting', The Studio, May 1942, pp.121-132).Although a frequent traveller, Cedric Morris spent much of the early 1920s based in Paris and the latter part of the decade working in a studio at 32 Great Ormond Street, London. During these years, the self-taught Morris developed complex surrealist, abstract and portrait practices. He engaged with leading art and society figures of the day, developing friendships as broad as Nancy Cunard and Peggy Guggenheim, Winifred and Ben Nicholson, Christopher Wood and John Banting. He staged his first one-man exhibition in Rome in 1922 and was represented in the British Pavilion of the Venice Biennale in 1928 (and again in 1932). He exhibited as part of the Seven & Five Society and had one man shows with Arthur Tooth and in The Hague.Following a decade of city life, in 1929 Morris and his partner Arthur Lett-Haines took a lease on Pound Farm in Suffolk. The move to the country was to be permanent, the couple moving to nearby Benton End a few years later and there establishing The East Anglian School of Painting (famously tutoring Lucian Freud). The gabled and buttressed Benton End dates to the sixteenth century and with its extensive walled gardens provided a perfect habitat for the proliferation of flowers and vegetables. It was here that Morris was able to fully indulge his passion, becoming a plantsman rather than a gardener and demonstrating his tremendous skill by rearing varieties that would not ordinarily be found in this country. Of particular note were his irises, for which he won the Foster Memorial Plaque, the highest award made by the British Iris Society, in 1949. Other favourites were the roses, sweet peas and lilies that lined the garden beds. Green Mountain Lilies (1950) celebrates a selection of these flowers and the diversity of colour that was achieved in the garden by Morris and his botanist associate Nigel Scott during the 1950s. The years in which Scott worked alongside Morris at Benton End have been described as 'the most perfect period of the garden'. The present work, impressive in scale, was included in and illustrated as the back cover of the Tate Gallery's 1984 exhibition catalogue on Cedric Morris.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ARAR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
