A Second World War and later group of six comprising Distinguished Service Cross dated 1940 (hallmarked London 1940 Garrard & Co), 1939-45 Star, Atlantic Star and Africa Star with North Africa 1942-43 clasp, War Medal with Mentioned in Despatches Oak Leaf and Naval General Service Medal 199-1962 with Palestine 1945-48 Clasp, named to Lt. Cdr I.N.D. Cox D.S.C. R.N. Mounted as worn. With accompanying miniatures. Mounted as worn in a glazed frame. Ian Nagel Douglas Cox (1915-1990) rose quickly through the ranks of junior officer, Midshipman from 1st September 1933, Sub Lieutenant 1st October 1936, Lieutenant 1st Jun 1938 and Acting Lieutenant Commander from 1st May 1945, Lieutenant Commander in June 1946 before retiring on medical grounds in 1951, to a life of chicken farming outside Chichester in Sussex. He was consistently rewarded for his courage during the War, his D.S.C. for gallantry during active operations against the enemy at sea, on this occasion for his part in the evacuation at Dunkirk in 1940 on board H.M.S. Malcolm (Gazette 27th August 1940 p 5218). He was Mentioned in Despatches no fewer than three times in September 1942, May 1943 and November 1944. H.M.S. Malcolm (D19/I19) was a Scott-Class Destroyer built for the Royal Navy during the First World War, launched in May 1919 she missed the Great War but saw much service during the Second. Active during the evacuation of the Netherlands. At Dunkirk she made eight runs between Dunkirk and England, her Captain Sir Thomas Halsey being rewarded with the D.S.O. for 'good services in the withdrawal of Allied Armies from the Beeches of Dunkirk'. Halsey's report of the activities between the 28th May and 3rd June tell of the taking in the region of 4,400 men off the beaches and others from stricken vessels and out of the sea. The frenetic activity of these days resulted in a collision with a French Trawler, a heavy collision with A pier at Dunkirk and the constant threat from shells, mines, machine guns and other damaged vessels. Despite the events Halsey was fulsome in his praise for his men, in particular the Officers and Petty Officers whose fine example kept the men motivated and busy during times of extreme exhaustion. Of the 4,400 or so men they rescued there were some 800 French troops, apparently the extremely large packs they carried made it harder to take more than this number. Cox's award suggests he was one of the Officers that played a key role in the fine work that the ship and her crew undertook in rescuing the men from the French beeches. A recorded reminiscence on the BBC Archive by Mechanic F.C. Turner recalls the events of the evacuation, rescuing men from the burning Clan McAlister, near misses from German bombers on several occasions and the concerted effort that the Royal Navy made to get the men home to safety. Cox went on to serve on a number of other ships including H.M.S. Lupin, H.M.S Airdeale and H.M.S Woolston, taking command of H.M.S. Middleton, an Escort Destroyer between January 1944 and June 1945. An earlier, less fortunate ship was H.M.S. Welshman (M84) a Minelayer of 2650 tonnes which was sunk by torpedo off Tobruk by German submarine U-618 on the 1st of February 1943. As is so often the case the casualties were extensive with the loss of 155 lives from a complement in the region of 252. Lt Cdr Cox was one of the survivors who was rescued from the sea by Destroyers Tetcott or Belvoir. He later recalled that whilst struggling in the water and when he could see that so many of his colleagues were perishing around him, he was determined to survive so that he might meet his son, Jeremy, who had been born the previous September, and who he had not yet met. His last command was H.M.S. Virago a V-class destroyer. It is conceivable that Douglas Cox was entitled to a second award bar to his D.S.C. The London Gazette records the bar to the award on the 16th August 1940, p5064. Offered for sale by a direct descendant of the recipient. *CR As worn, ribbons slightly grubby.

A Second War ‘Little Ships’ 1940 evacuation of Dunkirk D.S.M. group of seven awarded to Chief Petty Officer H. H. Smith, Royal Navy, who was decorated for his services in the Yacht Caryanda Distinguished Service Medal, G.VI.R. (JX.125648 H. H. Smith. A/P.O. H.M.S. Caryanda); 1939-45 Star; Atlantic Star; Burma Star; Defence and War Medals 1939-45; Royal Navy L.S. & G.C., G.VI.R., 1st issue (JX..125648 H. H. Smith. P.O. H.M.S. Aggressive.) nearly extremely fine (7) £1,600-£2,000 --- D.S.M. London Gazette 16 August 1940: ‘For good services in the withdrawal of the Allied Armies from the beaches at Dunkirk’ Herbert Henry Smith was born on 2 July 1910 in Alverstoke, Hampshire. He entered the Royal Navy as a Boy 2nd Class on 8 January 1926 and proceeded to serve in a variety of shore establishments and ships. Joining H.M.S. Hood on 18 March 1937, he was advanced to Acting Petty Officer on 7 September 1939 but transferred to the Orkney based trawler H.M.S. Leeward on 31 January 1940, thus avoiding Hood’s tragic fate the following year. Smith next served in the motor yacht, Tamahine, a Portsmouth Harbour boom defence patrol boat, from 23 April 1940 and from here found himself in the Portsmouth Inner Patrol Yacht, Caryanda, during Operation Dynamo, the Dunkirk evacuation at the end of May 1940; services which resulted in the award of his D.S.M. Built in Amsterdam in 1938 and owned by E. R. Colman of 3 Whitehall, London, SW1, the requisitioned 70ft yacht, Caryanda, under the command of Lieutenant D. A. L. Kings, left Hamble for Dover on 29 May 1940 in company with 8 other yachts (including Tamahine) of the Portsmouth Inner Patrol Flotilla. Leaving from Dover the following day, the flotilla arrived at Bray Dunes, Dunkirk at 6am on 31 May. Here, under the orders of Commodore G. O. Stephenson in the yacht Bounty, Lieutenant Kings and his crew in Caryanda organised a number of smaller boats to collect troops from the beaches, thus enabling Caryanda to ferry an estimated total of 250 troops to off-lying ships over the course of the day. Ordered finally to stand off-shore at 8.45pm, Caryanda set course for Dover at 9pm, arriving the following morning. In addition to Smith’s award, the D.S.M. was also awarded to Able Seaman T. W. Schofield for services aboard Caryanda during the Dunkirk evacuation. Smith continued to serve in a variety of vessels including the Motor Torpedo Boat Wasp and Motor Gun Boat 16. He was awarded the Naval L.S. & G.C. medal in July 1943 and advanced to Chief Petty Officer on 7 May 1945 while serving in the frigate H.M.S. Loch Katrine, based at Colombo. Continuing to serve post-war, he finally retired to a pension on 31 March 1959, the Special Remarks on his Trade Certificate at the time of his discharge describing him as: ‘A very loyal Chief Petty Officer who has always had the interest of the Service very much at heart, and who has always placed duty first.’ Sold with a number of original documents including the recipient’s Certificates of Service, Torpedo History Sheets, hand written references, a number of Trade Certificates and naval training records. Also sold with a copy of Lieutenant Kings’ report in respect of Caryanda’s operations from 29 May 1940 to 1 June 1941, a colour portrait image of the recipient in uniform, two photographic images of H.M.S. Hood and an original page from The Times newspaper, 17 August 1940, containing the recipient’s D.S.M. announcement.

A Second War ‘Malta convoy’ C.B.E. group of nine awarded to Captain E. G. Jeffery, Chief of Staff of Vice-Admiral Sir James Somerville, commanding Force “H”, previously mentioned in despatches for the Bismarck action The Order of the British Empire, C.B.E. (Military) 2nd type, neck badge in its Garrard & Co case of issue, enamel damaged on one arm; British War and Victory Medals (S. Lt. E. G. Jeffery. R.N.); 1939-45 Star; Atlantic Star; Africa Star; War Medal 1939-45; Jubilee 1935; Coronation 1937, unless otherwise stated, good very fine (9) £600-£800 --- Importation Duty This lot is subject to importation duty of 5% on the hammer price unless exported outside the UK --- --- Provenance: Dix Noonan Webb, June 1999, as a group of eight and since reunited with missing Victory Medal. C.B.E. London Gazette 25 November 1941. For Operations ‘Substance’ and ‘Style’ (Gibraltar to Malta Convoy, 21 July - 4 August 1941). Originally put forward for a Mention in Despatches, it was subsequently proposed that Jeffery be given the D.S.O., but in the end he was awarded the C.B.E. The following recommendation is taken from Admiralty records: ‘Captain Eric Gordon Jeffery, R.N., Chief of Staff of Vice-Admiral Somerville. F.O. Force ‘H’ particularly brings to notice the name of his Chief of Staff, Captain E. G. Jeffery. He states: ‘This officer was responsible for the preparation of detailed plans to deal with the complicated and tightly adjusted programmes required for these operations, in which secrecy had to be maintained to the fullest degree. The smoothness and precision with which the refuelling of all units and the embarkation of stores and personnel were carried out bear witness to his admirable judgement and foresight which I have previously had occasion to commend to their Lordships in connection with other successful operations.’ It will be recollected that F.O. Force ‘H’ strongly recommended Captain Jeffery for recognition in connection with the Bismarck operation. I think this strong recommendation now received entitles this most able officer to the award of a D.S.O.’ M.I.D. London Gazette 14 October 1941 (Bismarck action). Admiral Somerville, Flag Officer Force “H”, originally put Jeffery forward for the D.S.O. for this action, a recommendation that was reinforced when submitting awards for Operations ‘Substance’ and ‘Style’. M.I.D. London Gazette 6 January 1942 (Operation ‘Halberd’ - Gibraltar to Malta Convoy, 24-28 September 1941). Captain Eric Gordon Jeffery tragically died in October 1941; after appearing his usual cheerful self in the Wardroom of the flagship Rodney, he was later discovered in the bathroom, having hanged himself. Sold with copies from Admiralty records covering all three awards, and Admiral Somerville’s 11-page report on the part played by Force “H” in the destruction of the Bismarck.

Registration - NAU 521EChassis No. - 1A31512BWM.O.T. - ExemptOdometer - 20,000This stately Daimler 4.2 Sovereign is presented in eye-catching red paintwork, over black leather interior with red piping and wooden veneer dashboard. The spacious saloon uses Jaguar’s 4.2-litre straight-six XK engine, mated to a three-speed automatic transmission. It has been extensively restored by the current owner, who has spent around £30,000 over the course of their ownership of ‘NAU 521E’, bringing the Daimler back to its former glory. This includes stripping everything out and sending the bodyshell to a professional garage to for renovations, including new brakes fitted and a stainless-steel exhaust. The undersides and engine bay have been resprayed three years ago, the roof refurbished by RS Sunroofs in Kent, and a new leather interior installed.Bought by the current keeper eight years ago, ‘NAU 521E’ was originally sold through Stratstone’s London dealership in 1967 – initially painted cream – but was then sold to a customer of H.R. Owen in London in 1970 and shipped to America, where it stayed for the next 40 years. Not much is known of its time across the Atlantic, though the vendor has receipts of work from both Tuscon, Arizona and Cape Arago, Oregon. It was repatriated in 2014, where an MOT the following year records 73,000 miles on the clock; the odometer now reads 20,000 miles. Included is a large file of invoices and the original handbook, as well as the toolbox. The seller describes all areas of the vehicle – transmission, bodywork, paintwork, electrics, and interior – as ‘good’ though the engine is rated as ‘excellent’. Daimler and Jaguar’s 420/Sovereign was introduced in 1966, and was a development of the S-Type – itself a development of the Mk II saloon. Daimler’s offering was pitched at the more luxurious end of the market, in keeping with the brand’s positioning at the time, with Jaguar the sportier, more aggressive of the two manufacturers. As such, although mechanically the cars were identical, both featuring Jaguar’s 4.2-litre XK straight six unit, the details were tweaked, such as Daimler’s ‘D’ icon used in place of Jaguar’s cat motifs, a fluted grille surround, and higher specifications of wood veneer and leather used. Production of the Jaguar ended in 1968, while Daimler production halted mid-1969. · Rare opportunity to own Daimler’s take on Jaguar’s large 1960s sports saloon.· Comprehensively refurbished over the last eight years.· Large folder of paperwork covering work carried out, and original handbook.

Registration – TSY 218 Chassis No. – BN61371 M.O.T. – Exempt Odometer – 17,563 This highly attractive, quintessential British convertible is very well presented in metallic blue over white paint, with smart dark blue interior with white piping. In its present enthusiast ownership for nearly two decades, ‘TSY 218’s short list of former keepers include Commodore Cooke-Priest CBE, one-time Commander of the world’s most advanced aircraft carrier, the HMS Queen Elizabeth. This desirable example from the final year of 100-6 production is offered complete with what the vendor describes as a ‘huge’ history file – in fact, four Lever Archer folders - of documents and photographs of the extensive, older restoration, which included an upgrade to a Healey 3000 engine. More recently, ‘TSY 218’ has received new wire wheels and tyres, a brake overhaul, new distributor and alternator, coil and spark plugs, plus new hood, frame and tonneau cover. The vendor describes all aspects of the car as ‘good’. The car has been regularly maintained and MOT’d and carries a current MOT to 2 November 2024, with no advisories. MOT records show it has covered just over 11,000 miles in the past 19 years. It is now waiting for a new owner to add to those miles and enjoy years of wind-in-the-hair motoring. Donald Healey’s eponymous company built a prototype two-seater sports car for display at the 1952 London Motor Show. It was based on Austin A90 Atlantic mechanicals and sported a sleek body designed by Gerry Coker and built by Tickford. Healey planned to build production versions at his factory in Warwick, but as things transpired, the prototype so impressed both the public and Austin’s Managing Director Leonard Lord, that he agreed to build the car in volume at Longbridge. The newcomer was renamed the Austin-Healey 100. The production bodyshells were made by Jensen and then transported to Longbridge where the cars were assembled alongside the A90. The last of the 100 models, the BN4 (2+2 seater) and BN6 (2-seater, as per the sale car) had a two-inch longer wheelbase and were powered by the six-cylinder 2,639cc BMC C Series engine originally found in the Austin Westminster. Early versions gave 102bhp, but by 1957 output of the 100-6 had risen to 117bhp. In summary: · A very well-presented late example of Donald Healey’s classic british sportscar · An older restoration with an upgraded 3-litre engine · Extensive history and restoration records, and recent new hood, frame and cover and new wheels and tyres

The rare and particularly fine Second War 1944 ‘Photo Reconnaissance Unit’ D.F.C., ‘Malta 1940-41’ D.F.M. group of eight awarded to Maryland and Mosquito navigator, Flight Lieutenant J. H. Spires, Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve, a Blenheim veteran of the Battle of Britain, who went on to distinguish himself flying with some of the most important Reconnaissance Pilots of the Second World War. Spires was posted to No. 431 (General Reconnaissance) Flight on Malta immediately after the Battle of Britain, and here he crewed up with the soon-to-become-legendary ‘Six-medal Warburton’ - who was later described as ‘the most important pilot in the R.A.F.’ by Air Marshal Tedder. Together they were to fly ‘in Maryland AR.713 affectionately known as the “Sardine Tin”... shot up in the air, holed by bomb splinters on the ground, in flight it played “Whistlers Mother.”’ Spires and Warburton provided vital reconnaissance for the Taranto Raid - plotting the positions of the Italian battleships mere hours before the Fleet Air Arm carried out their famous Swordfish attack. Warburton made three sweeps over the fleet at 500 feet and lower, even though ‘the weather was so bad that the birds were walking and the fish were at anchor..... we flew around the harbour twice and plotted the ships... when all hell let lose - Flack, tracer the kitchen sink - the lot.... We went in hugging the water, and the “Ities” were ready and tracer bullets poured towards us, I thought how in the hell can they miss us, but they did and we counted the battleships together, one, two, three, four, five.’ This was not the last of Spires’ adventures with Warburton, as the flight were tasked with carrying out the reconnaissance for Operation Colossus - the first British airborne operation of the Second World War. Warburton and crew took photographs of the Tragino viaduct near Calitri in southern Italy, which was to be the target for ‘X’ Troop, from the near-suicidal height of 25 feet! Having left Malta, Spires then converted to the blue Mosquitos of the P.R.U. and saw out the remainder of the War in the skies above North West Europe. His swan song came when flying with arguably the finest Mosquito and P.R.U. pilot of them all - Wing Commander J. R. H. Merifield, D.S.O., D.F.C. and Bar - when the pair achieved two Atlantic flying records and a trans-Canadian record, flying Mosquito PR34 RG241 'K' in October 1945 Distinguished Flying Cross, G.VI.R., reverse officially dated ‘1944’; Distinguished Flying Medal, G.VI.R. (751252 Sgt. J. H. Spires. R.A.F.); 1939-45 Star, 1 clasp, Battle of Britain; Air Crew Europe Star; Africa Star; Defence and War Medals 1939-45; Air Efficiency Award, G.VI.R., 1st issue (Flt. Lt. J. H. Spires. R.A.F.V.R.) mounted as worn, cleaned, very fine (lot) £10,000-£15,000 --- D.F.C. London Gazette 7 November 1944. The original recommendation states: ‘This officer has an outstanding record as an operational navigator. Since the award of the D.F.M. he has completed many more operational sorties. He has flown on photographic reconnaissance’s over some of the most heavily defended targets in Germany and occupied Europe and has secured much valuable information. Throughout, Flight Lieutenant Spires has displayed skill, determination and great courage.’ D.F.M. London Gazette 17 June 1941. The original recommendation states: ‘While serving in Blenheims with 235 Squadron in the United Kingdom, Sergeant Spires took part in 55 operational flights which included reconnaissance flights over enemy occupied territory and escort duty. On four occasions, the aircraft met with opposition from German fighters. These flights amounted to a total of 157 hours operational flying. He was then posted to 69 Squadron based at Malta and between 1st November, 1940 and 12th February, 1941, has taken part in 38 reconnaissance flights, 28 of these flights were photographic reconnaissance of enemy territory. On seven occasions, the aircraft met with opposition from Italian fighters. He was also the Observer of the aircraft which successfully carried out the special Air Ministry reconnaissance of Southern Italy on 9th February, 1941 [the Tragino Aqueduct near Calitri, Southern Italy - prior to Operation Colossus being carried out by ‘X’ Troop, 10-11 February 1941, the latter being the first British airborne operation of the War], and again on 12th February, 1941. These flights amounted to a total of 160 hours operational flying. His total operational flying from the United Kingdom and Malta amounts to 317 hours. Without exception, the Captains of the aircraft in which Sergeant Spires has flown have the greatest faith in his abilities, which are definitely above the average. 27th May, 1941.’ John Henry Spires was born in Luton, Bedfordshire, in September 1920, and resided at 13 Montrose Avenue, Luton. He enlisted in the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve (Observer Section) at Luton in May 1939. Spires was mobilised in September 1939, and carried out training at No. 6 Air Observers Navigation School, Cheltenham, and at No. 4 B. & G.S., West Freugh. Spires was posted for operational flying with 235 Squadron (Blenheims) as part of Coastal Command on 9 March 1940. The Squadron was tasked with fighter-reconnaissance duties, flying out of Detling and Bircham Newton. When the German invasion of the Low Countries began in May 1940, the squadron flew patrols over Holland and during the Battle of Britain was engaged in convoy protection and reconnaissance missions over the North Sea. In an interview given after the War, Spires commented on this period: ‘The emotion was unmistakable as John Spires spoke of the many friends who didn’t come home. “We would all go to the pub after a mission and then someone would say ‘Where’s old Charlie?’ “Someone else would say ‘He never made it today’. You would think ‘that could have been me.’ “I lost a lot of fine friends..... At the time I don’t think it registered. Survival was everything and King and Country meant everything. We were young, inexperienced and didn’t fully realise the danger,” he said. During the Battle of Britain, Mr Spires was a navigator in a Blenheim 5 used as a bomber/fighter. “We had to intercept enemy planes when they were flying back to Europe from England. But you needed a fair amount of luck and if your gunners were killed you were in trouble,” said the man who was shot down three times. “But it was the ground crew who kept us going,” he said. “We just did what we had to do throughout the war.” Spires was flying with Pilot Officer E. H. McHardy (of 248 Squadron) and L.A.C. Heaviside as gunner, when they shot down a Me110 three miles off Blankenberge, Belgium 18 May 1940. However, it was subsequently claimed that this may have been a French Potez 631.’ After the “Battle”, new friends in Malta - ‘Warby’ Warburton Spires continued to serve with the Squadron throughout the Battle of Britain, before being posted to No. 431 (General Reconnaissance) Flight on Malta at the end of October 1940. The latter was equipped with three Martin 167F Maryland light bombers, which were to provide the island with a reconnaissance facility able to operate over defended areas. Spires soon found himself in the ‘mix’ with the Australian pilot and C/O ‘Tich’ Whiteley, and the soon-to-become-legendary ‘Warby’ Warburton (later dubbed ‘the most important pilot in the RAF’ by...
