In the UK since 1989 and owned by a Jaguar-enthusiast since 1999 Launched in 1954, the Jaguar XK140 was broadly similar to, though more refined than, its XK120 predecessor, major engineering changes being confined to the repositioning of the engine 3-inches further forward and the adoption of rack-and-pinion steering as used on the racing C-Type. The suspension and brakes remained much as before, though with stiffer torsion bars at the front and telescopic shock absorbers replacing the previous lever-type at the rear. Outwardly the newcomer was distinguishable by its revised radiator grille, rear lights incorporating flashing indicators, and larger bumpers - the latter adopted to withstand the cut and thrust of urban parking. The power unit remained Jaguar's well-tried, 3.4-litre, twin-cam six, which now produced 190bhp in standard trim thanks to higher-lift camshafts and revised porting. The car presented here is a 1955 Jaguar XK140 SE 3.4-litre Fixed Head Coupe with a desirable manual gearbox, manufactured on the 25th November 1955 and despatched to acclaimed US Jaguar dealer 'Hornburg of Los Angeles' (established in 1947). Fascinatingly, a much later owner of the car (and the person responsible for overseeing its complete restoration) in the 1990s, a Mr Ralph of Devon, contacted the wife of the original US owner (who in 1955 already owned an earlier XK120), a Mrs Phyllis Hobbs. There are letters in the history file explaining that Mr Hobbs purchased the car new from 'British Motor Sales' in San Diego, California. Mrs Hobbs explains that the car was put in her name (backed up by numerous original Automobile Registration Cards bearing both her name and the car's details from the 1960s & '70s) and sent to her in the Chicago area for a while before both returned to San Diego. In 1960, Mr Hobbs' work took him to Nebraska to supervise the missile bases being built there. The couple moved to Nebraska for two years, dutifully trailering their beloved XK140 with them behind their Oldsmobile! Upon their return to San Diego, the car was repainted red and joined by two E-Types and a Mk4 in the Hobbs' extensive garage! Charmingly, there are also copies of photos of the Hobbs with the XK140. By 1993, the Hobbs had sold all their classic Jaguars, except the XK120. Such priceless provenance! As stated, the car returned to the UK in 1989 as a very complete, matching-numbers example (still with its Black with Red piping interior features). In need of much work, it was bestowed with the most thorough of fully documented restorations, ensuring all major components and panels stayed together. It was converted to RHD and returned to its original colour combination of Pearl Grey paintwork and Black with Red piped interior. Upon completion, the car won numerous Concours events held by Jaguar clubs - known for their exacting standards. In 1999, the XK was purchased by our Jaguar-enthusiast vendor, as he had known Mr Ralph and the quality of the car, and it has formed the basis of a small collection of best-of-breed Jaguars for the last 20 years. Maintained and stored with the utmost of care and attention, this impressive British sportscar is in fine fettle and ready to be enjoyed by a new owner.

Howard Koslow (American, 1924 - 2016) "James Dean" Signed lower left. Original Acrylic on Illustration Board Painting. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting originally appeared on the Fleetwood First Day Cover of the Legends of Hollywood Series 32c James Dean stamp issued June 24, 1996. Born on February 8, 1931, in Fairmount, Indiana, James Dean moved with his family to Los Angeles when he was a young child. After his mother's death in 1940, Dean's father was unable to care for his young son, so James returned to Fairmount where he lived with his aunt and uncle on their farm. A skilled athlete, Dean earned letters in high school basketball and track. He also discovered he had a talent for acting. After his graduation in 1949, Dean moved to Los Angeles to pursue an acting career. He attended UCLA as a theater arts major and appeared in various television programs. In September of 1951, Dean moved to New York City. Dean worked steadily throughout the summer and fall of 1953, performing in a variety of television programs and stage productions. In 1954, he won a Tony Award for his outstanding performance in the Broadway play, The Immoralist. Hollywood director Elia Kazan was impressed with Dean and hired him to star as "Cal" in Kazan's new film, East of Eden. Dean superbly portrayed the misunderstood, rebellious son with a vulnerable spirit that thousands of teen-agers could identify with. In Dean's next film, Rebel Without a Cause, he continued to characterize youthful alienation, while his last film, Giant, launched him forever into the realm of star, hero and legend. On September 30, 1955 -- at the height of his career -- James Dean died in a tragic automobile accident. He was buried in Park Cemetery at his hometown of Fairmount, Indiana. Image Size: 14 x 12 in.

Robert Seabeck (American, B. 1945) "1941 Lincoln Continental" Signed lower left. Original Mixed Media painting on Paper. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting originally appeared on the Federated States of Micronesia 55c 1941 Lincoln Continental stamp issued June 4, 1996. In 1896 Henry Ford built his first car -- the Quadricycle. This unique vehicle featured a buggy-type chassis that rolled on bicycle-type tires and weighed only 500 pounds. Reaching a speed of 20 mph, the Quadricycle was powered by a four-horsepower, two-cylinder, four-stroke, water-cooled engine. It had two forward speeds but no brakes or reverse gear. Henry Ford went on to produce a long line of Ford automobiles. Ford's 1917 Model T truck featured a larger high-set radiator than previous models, as well as crowned fenders and nickel-plated hubcaps. The Tudor sedan was the first Model A built, and was introduced in 1928. This instantly popular automobile could reach a speed of 65 mph. One of Ford's first sporty cars was the 1932 V-8 Sport Roadster, which featured fold-down windshields. These tough cars also had anti-theft locks on the steering columns. In 1941, the Lincoln Continental became a separate model instead of a Zephyr series, and in 1953 the F-100 half-ton pickup -- with a 110-inch wheel base -- debuted. This rugged truck sold for $1,330. A personal luxury cruiser, the Thunderbird convertible was re-introduced as a four-seater in 1958. Today, the 1996 Mercury Sable embodies the essence of aerodynamic engineering and modern automobile design. Image Size: 7.75 x 13.5 in. Overall Size: 15 x 22.5 in. Unframed. (B15443)

Saul Mandel (1926 - 2011) "Earth Day - Clean Air" Signed lower right. Original Watercolor painting. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting originally appeared on the Fleetwood First Day Cover of the 32c Tree Planting stamp issued April 20, 1995. Polluted air has existed in urban communities for many years. Concern about this condition is a relatively recent development. As we become more aware of the harmful effects of poor air quality on living things, increased efforts are being made to find ways to eliminate or control its causes. For example, scientific studies have proven that when waste gases, such as those released by the burning of fossil fuels in electric power plants and refineries, combine with atmospheric water vapor, certain types of acids are formed and ultimately fall to the ground. This condition, known as "acid rain", can lead to detrimental effects on the ecology. Acidic precipitation has been found to be harmful to trees and other forms of vegetation, resulting in foliage damage and reduction in growth. More obvious signs of air pollution are noted in large urban centers such as Los Angeles, where the brown haze known as "smog" hangs over the city. Another damaging side effect is caused by automobile exhaust. When these noxious gases are released into the air, their presence can cause respiratory distress as well as damage to plant life. The enforcement of auto emissions testing and tighter controls on industry have begun to improve the life-giving air we breathe. Image Size: 9.75 x 8 in. Overall Size: 13.75 x 11 in. Unframed.

Chris Calle (American, B. 1961) "Futuristic Automobile" Signed lower right. Original Mixed Media on Illustration Board painting. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting was originally published on the Fleetwood Maximum Card for the U.S. 25c Future Mail stamp in the UPU Congress Series issued November 27, 1989. Imagine that human space colonies someday dot the universe the way cities dot the earth today. Space travel would become so routine that an interstellar highway system would become necessary to handle the traffic -- people would have to be transported from space station to space station, from planet to planet. But that would not be the only kind of traffic generated by space colonies. "Interstellar trucklines" would evolve to carry into space things that colonies would consider necessities, like food, medicine, clothing, and, of course, letters from home. Some people feel that it is quite likely that the day will come when space-age vehicles travel along interstellar highways delivering mail to colonists as close as the moon and as far away as the outer reaches of the universe. This impressive transportation system would carry people, goods and raw materials as well as mail on routes to extraterrestrial destinations, including post offices among the stars.

Paul Calle (1928 - 2010) and Chris Calle (B. 1961) "Age of the Automobile Dawns". Signed lower right. Original Mixed Media on Illustration Board painting. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation.This painting appeared on the Republic of the Marshall Islands 60c Dawn of the Automobile Age stamp issued April 15, 1997. The beginning of the 20th century witnessed a revolutionary change in the nature of transportation. For the first time in history, animals that had been used for centuries to carry people and property were superseded by the growing popularity -- dramatically enhanced by dropping gasoline prices -- of the "horseless carriage." The year 1907 saw the first long-distance automobile race, from Paris to Beijing, further inciting a growing excitement for the romance of the open road. As the automobile became more affordable, and subsequently more prevalent, significant changes in the world economy and society itself occurred. Today, the automobile is more common than horses once were and is used all over the world for commercial, military and recreational purposes. Image Size: 10.25 x 13.5 in. Overall Size: 14.5 x 20 in.

Paul Calle (American, 1928 - 2010) and Chris Calle (American, B. 1961) "1910s - Assembly Lines Achieve Economies" Signed lower right. Original Mixed Media on Illustration Board painting. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation.This painting appeared on the Republic of the Marshall Islands 60c Assembly Lines Achieve Economies for Consumers stamp issued October 15, 1997. The development of the moving assembly line created a boon to commerce, enabling industry to produce goods in greater quantity at significantly less cost. The Ford Motor Company refined assembly line methods, resulting in a low-priced car that the average American could afford. Before instituting the assembly line, the Model T sold for $850, taking 12 hours to build. With the new technology, workmen could build a Model T in little more than an hour and a half. By 1916, the Ford Motor Company was selling Model Ts for less than $400 -- the lowest price of any automobile. The success of Ford's operation led to the adoption of assembly line methods by industry, significantly impacting world economies and improving living standards in the 20th century.

Chris Calle (American, B. 1961) "1900s - Model T Automobile, Henry Ford" Signed lower right. Original Mixed Media on Illustration Board painting. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting was published on the Fleetwood First Day Cover for the U.S. Celebrate the Century Series 32c Model T Ford stamp issued February 3, 1998. In 1908 Henry Ford produced the first Model T, a sputtering, backfiring contraption that would soon put America on wheels. The first Model T originally sold for $850, but once Ford got his assembly line working to perfection, adapting techniques employed by the meat packing industry, the price dropped dramatically. By 1913 Ford's Detroit plant was assembling 1,000 Model T's daily and by 1924, Americans could buy a new Ford for an amazing $290! "I am going to democratize the automobile," Ford said, "and when I'm through, everybody will be able to afford one." Affectionately dubbed the "Tin Lizzie," the Model T was light, durable, simply constructed and easy for any backyard mechanic to work on. Best of all, it had an exceptionally high clearance that enabled it to maneuver on or off America's country roads, which at that time were little more than rugged, rutted trails that turned to rivers of mud during a hard rain. Still, Ford's stubborn refusal to improve the Model T would eventually result in its demise, as he insisted there would be "no new models, no new motors, no new bodies, and no new colors." By the late 1920s, as Americans came to prefer style and comfort in their automobiles, the Model T's popularity diminished. But because of the extraordinary "Tin Lizzie," America would never be the same again. Image Size: 14.75 x 11.75 in. Overall Size: 22.25 x 16 in. Unframed. (B15825)
