Cecil de Blaquière Howard, 1888 Clifton, Kanada – 1956 New YorkTIREUSE A L‘ARC, 1926-28 93 x 44 cm. Signatur auf der Plinthe.Beigegraue Steinfigur eines stehenden Frauenaktes in Haltung beim Bogenschießen. Der Körper frontal zum Betrachter, der Kopf nach rechts gerichtet, der Pfeilarm abgewinkelt. Ein gerafftes Tuch zieht vom Bogenarm über den Rücken, die Schulter und dann zum Boden. Der Bogen in Holz gearbeitet. Der amerikanisch-kanadische Bildhauer entstammt einem englisch-französischen Familienhintergrund mit mehreren in verschiedenen Bereichen bekannt gewordenen Mitgliedern. Bereits 16-jährig ging Howard an die Académie Julian in Paris, war alsbald mit Rembrandt Bugatti (1884-1916) eng befreundet, mit dem er zusammen in Antwerpen Tierfiguren schuf. Die kräftige, sportliche, aber stämmige Körperform tradiert den bildhauerischen Stil von Aristide Maillol (1861-1944, der später auch Freund von Howard wurde. Die Skulptur weist eine extrem feine Oberflächenbehandlung auf. Das Ziel höchste Ästhetik zu erreichen, lässt die Erinnerung an die Antike ebenso wachrufen, wie die Suche nach einer Direktaussage, die stilistisch hier ganz zum Art Déco gehört. So hatte der Bildhauer – ähnlich wie Maillol – den Idealismus vollkommener Körperformen angestrebt. Sein Werk „The artist“ hatte 1913 angelegentlich der Armory Show bereits großes Aufsehen erregt, was bereits damals als Beginn der Moderne in Amerika gesehen wurde. 1917 mit dem französischen Modell Céline Louise Coupet verheiratet, hielt er sich bis 1939 in Paris, in den Sommermonaten bis zum Zweiten Weltkrieg mit Familie in der bretonischen Künstlerkolonie Ploubazlanec auf, um alsbald wieder nach New York zu ziehen. Später ging er in seinen Bildern zu einem abstrakten Kubismus über, angeregt durch den mit ihm befreundeten Guillaume Apollinaire (1880-1918). Werke seiner Hand finden sich in zahlreichen internationalen öffentlichen Sammlungen und Museen, vor allem in Paris, Whitney Museum N.Y., Chicago oder Pennsylvania.

Registration No: IOM-Reg (previously 'AWM 5') Chassis No: GFT2 MOT: ExemptExhibited at the October 1931 Salon d’Automobiles in Paris’s magnificent Grand Palais, chassis GFT2 provided coachbuilder Barker with an opportunity to showcase its talents to a truly international audience. Thought to be unique, the Swept Tail Sports Saloon body that the London firm created for the occasion was a stylistic masterclass. The Rolls-Royce’s previous owner, Julian Bowen, was unaware of its significance when he took possession in May 2008. A renowned furniture designer, the car’s lines enchanted him so much that he rejected a host of other 20/25s and spent well over a year politely badgering his immediate predecessor to sell. Applying to the Rolls-Royce Enthusiasts’ Club for a set of copy build records revealed that GFT2 was a former ‘Paris Show Car’. Suitably enthused, he tracked down relevant copies of Motor and Autocar magazines which confirmed the 20/25 had originally sported a bold two-tone livery and wheel discs. Determined to return the Swept Tail Sports Saloon to its former glory, Mr Bowen embarked upon a meticulous restoration the story of which is recounted in his own words below: “We decided to start with the body repairs, keeping an eye for traces of the original colour scheme - Green and Cream! It took time to be satisfied with a hue match, but after weeks of experimentation we felt it was perfect. I was lucky to be using a small body shop outside Grantham whose approach was as fastidious and perfectionist as my own. The chromework was re-plated and the bonnet hinges remade in stainless steel. In removing the hinges, the original rivets had to be sacrificed. I purchased replacements but they stood too proud. A retired friend heard of the problem and offered to machine over 400 rivets to the correct profile! He also remade the Barker patented dipping system in stainless steel. At the same time all the dome headed coach bolts on the body were remade in stainless steel. A commercial supplier supplied new wheel discs. The original windscreen had delaminated so a new one was obtained. The chrome went back on, the locks were repaired, and the headlamps sent to Sheffield to be refurbished. It was time to tackle the trim. Around 1960 'Arabella' (as she is known) had been sold to America spending the next 25 years in Florida. Painted Copper Bronze, fitted with Buick bumpers and shorn of her wheel discs, she also suffered heat damage to the interior. Thankfully, the original but heavily cracked horsehide leather was covered over with vinyl rather than being discarded. A small tannery in Southern Spain, who tanned leather by hand, were able to colour match using cowhide. I already knew a trimmer whose work was of very high quality and was confident he would maintain the standards already achieved. The original stuffing of horsehair and latex was re-used. There were no carpets or headlining present, so we chose colours that suited the rest of the livery. Basically the engine and drivetrain were in good condition, but some ancillary equipment had gone missing over time. The most difficult items to source were the under trays and the starter solenoid. The engine had been worked on by the previous owner and already boasted an aluminium cylinder head and re-metalled bearings. The engine compartment was tidied, and all electrics re-wired using correct colours. After steam cleaning the chassis and re-painting, she was much admired by all who saw her. Over the course of the restoration, research into the car's history proved very interesting. The first owner, who saw it at the Paris Show in the Grand Palais was a well-known enthusiast for the marque, Captain JF Kruse MC. Born in 1892, Jack Kruse was the eldest son of a successful banker who, having survived a torpedo attack in WWI, left the Royal Navy with the rank of Captain. Following the war, he established successful business enterprises in England and The Netherlands, married an American hotel heiress, and cultivated various connections among British high society. By the end of the 1920s, Capt. Kruse maintained residences in London and the French Riviera. During this period, Capt. Kruse also developed a passion for elegant, high-performance motor cars. He owned some of the finest thoroughbreds of the era including an Alfa Romeo 6C 1750, Bentley 6 1/2 Litre, Bugatti Type 35, Mercedes-Benz SS, Low-Chassis Invicta, and Lancia Lambda, among others. Inspired by his close associate Lord Rothermere, the co-founder of the Daily Mail and an early patron of Rolls-Royce, Capt. Kruse became one of the firm’s most important customers, purchasing three Silver Ghosts, four 20 HPs, four Phantom Is, four Phantom IIs, and four 20/25s. Due to his friendship with Frank Manning, the showroom manager for Barker & Co., most of Capt. Kruse’s Rolls-Royce were bodied by this prestigious coachbuilder. The next owner, the Marquis de Portago, who bought the car in 1933, was a personal friend of Captain Kruse, the two having met on the polo pitch at the Hurlingham Club. In 1928, he had had an only son named Alfonso, whose mother used the car until it was disposed of just pre-WW2. Alfonso became a famous racing driver before his death in the 1957 Mille Miglia. The car spent World War Two in storage in Montpelier Square, London, emerging in the ownership of another Captain - Captain Drummond MC, a member of the banking family and a distant relative of the Queen Mother. Around 1960 she was sold to an American Serviceman based at Bicester and subsequently shipped to Florida. He registered her '1931 RR', and over 20 years allowed her to descend into dilapidation. She was spotted in Miami and brought back to the UK by Porters of Kensington and, shortly afterwards, c.1985, acquired by the retired motor engineer in Lincolnshire from whom I bought her in 2008. Built as a 'one off', she remains unique although rumours exist of a similar body built on a Phantom chassis. Since completion 'Arabella' has travelled c.16,000 miles. The first ride overseas was to the Classic Le Mans meeting, then a tour was made under the auspices of the ‘Club d'Auto’ around the Champagne vineyards of Epernay. We then attended the Circuit des Remparts at Angouleme before being invited to attend the British Car Club Meeting in St Moritz where we participated in the Rally, negotiating two Alpine Passes of seven and eight thousand feet before coming second in the Concours. She has made two trips to the Goodwood Revival and in 2012 she won Best in Class and Best in Show at the RREC Annual Rally at Rockingham. The achievement shortly afterwards of winning 'Best in Show' at the 2013 NEC Classic Car Show is a fitting testimonial to the craftsmen and friends who have helped to create the masterpiece that is the first Rolls-Royce to win this coveted award” Purchased by the vendor from Mr Bowen via our 2015 RREC Burghley House auction, GFT2 has continued its winning ways. Much appreciated wherever she goes, ‘Arabella’ was crowned 'Best in Show' at the 2018 RREC North of England Rally. Apart from this, ‘Arabella’ has been used for many local events on the Isle of Man since being acquired by the vendor. The last couple of months have seen the 20/25 treated to a new battery and full service. Worthy of close inspection, this decidedly special Rolls-Royce’s return to market has only been prompted by impending medical treatment. Offered for sale with large history file, handbook, car cover, hazard light kit (unfitted) and sundry tools.Footnote: For more information, please contact:Damian Jonesdamian.jones@handh.co.uk07855 493737

1937 Jaguar SS 100 3½-Litre Sports TourerRegistration no. CKF 888Chassis no. 18066•One of only 314 SS 100 models made•Originally a 2½-Litre car•Present ownership since 1990•Carefully stored for the last 25 yearsFootnotes:Launched for 1936, the SS100 was the first real high-performance model produced by SS Cars Limited and used a new Weslake-developed overhead-valve engine in a shortened SS1 chassis. The introduction of the OHV unit was considered to justify the adoption of a new name for the series, SS Cars boss William Lyons later recalling 'I immediately pounced on Jaguar as it had an exciting sound to me.' ('Jaguar' would be adopted as the marque name in 1943, 'SS' having by then acquired a somewhat tarnished reputation).'SS' originally stood for the Swallow Sidecar & Coachbuilding Company, which had been founded in Blackpool, England by William Walmsley. The company branched out into motor manufacture in 1926, its first major success being an attractive sports saloon on the Austin Seven chassis, the design being the work of Walmsley's partner, one William Lyons. Relocation to Coventry followed and the Swallow range expanded to include models on Morris Cowley, Wolseley Hornet and Standard Sixteen chassis. Marque status arrived in October 1931 with the launch of the SS1, the chassis of which was supplied exclusively to Swallow by Standard, who also provided the six-cylinder sidevalve engine and four-speed gearbox. Although unspectacular in performance, the SS1 went some way towards establishing the pattern for future Jaguars, combining sporting good looks with a better-than-average specification and all at a bargain price. By the time the SS90 sports car arrived in 1935, William Heynes had joined as Chief Engineer. Based on a shortened SS1 chassis, re-engineered by Heynes, the SS90 again demonstrated Lyons' consummate skill as a stylist, its long bonnet, smoothly flowing wings, cut-away doors and truncated tail making it every inch the epitome of the 1930s sports car. Although good for 90mph, the SS90 was handicapped by the limitations of its sidevalve engine, a deficiency that would soon be rectified by another of Lyons' new recruits, gas-flow consultant Harry Weslake. Launched in 1936 alongside the 2½-Litre saloon, the SS100 Jaguar sports car marked the company's first use of the 'Jaguar' name. Beautifully styled in the manner of its SS90 predecessor, the newcomer employed a shorter, 102'-wheelbase chassis and a revised version of the 2,663cc Standard six which, equipped with Weslake's overhead-valve cylinder head and breathing through twin SU carburettors, now produced 104bhp. Although a fine touring car, the SS 100 was marketed as primarily for competition work. Its first major success came early, if somewhat unexpectedly, when Tommy Wisdom, crewed by his wife, won the arduous International Alpine Trial in 1936, beating Bugatti and bringing the fledgling marque to the attention of the Continental public. This would be the first of many successful rallying forays, including class wins in the RAC events of 1937 and 1938, and the Alpine (outright) again in 1948. Around 198 2½-Litre and 116 of the later 3½-Litre cars had been made by the time SS 100 production was prematurely ended by the outbreak of war.Originally a 2½-Litre model, chassis number '18066' is one of only 314 SS 100s built. The car was supplied new in 1937 to Henlys, Jaguar's main distributor in London, for use as a demonstrator and show car (see Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate and letter on file from the Jaguar Enthusiasts Club, dated 27th March 1990). 'CKF 888' was purchased by the vendor's deceased husband at auction in February 1990 (bill of sale on file). It appears to have been imported into the UK earlier in 1990 (there is a photocopy C&E 386 form in the document file) while a plaque on the dashboard appears to relate to a previous owner: Dwight F Brooks of Pasadena, California. After acquisition, the late owner retrieved the original registration and appears to have had significant work carried out on both the bodywork and mechanicals, as evidenced by various invoices in the history file. Some of these invoices refer to parts for a 1947 3½-litre engine (the 'S' number prefix of the car's engine identifies it as such). Photographs in the history file show the car with the body removed, and also parts of the running gear. Following the work's completion, the car was used on an occasional basis for shows and ralliesThis car, along with others from the same vendor, has been standing for up to 25 years and like the others, was running and usable when laid-up. The vendor's husband died in 1996, and his collection of cars remained mostly unused from that time. They were all stored in a purpose-built, heated and dehumidified building, which the deceased gentleman had commissioned solely for the purpose of storing his cars. Having been standing for that period of time, they will require careful re-commissioning and safety checks prior to use by a new owner. Accompanying documentation includes a current V5C; two expired MoT certificates; miscellaneous papers; and the aforementioned copy C&E 386, invoices, and JEC letter. There is also a copy spare parts list and copy instruction book with the car, which is presently on SORN. It should be noted that the V5C erroneously records the engine number as '5529'. The SS100 was one of the fastest and best-handling sports cars of its day, as its competition record both before and after the war bears witness to. Representing a rare opportunity to acquire an example of the model that can be said to have started the Jaguar legend, '18066' is eligible for a wide variety of the most prestigious historic motor sports events.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1933 Bugatti Type 46S Two-Door CoupéCoachwork by by James YoungRegistration no. AGO 37Chassis no. 46587•The first Bugatti Type 46S imported into the UK•One of only 18 supercharged models made•Known ownership history from new•Spare engine included in sale•Exceptional history fileFootnotes:'(The Bugatti Type 46) ...combines the luxury of a large limousine, the perfect flexibility and top gear performance of a thoroughbred low carriage with the perfect roadholding, the speed and acceleration of the best type of sports model.' – The Motor, 1930. By the early 1930s, Ettore Bugatti had established an unrivalled reputation for building cars with outstanding performance on road or track. Indeed, the world's greatest racing drivers enjoyed countless successes aboard the Molsheim factory's products and often chose them for their everyday transport. Although Bugatti is best remembered for its racing models, most of the 6,000-or-so cars produced at the Molsheim factory were touring cars of sporting character. Produced from 1929 to 1932, the Type 46 exemplified Bugatti's policy of building fast and exciting touring cars possessing excellent handling and brakes. The Type 46 was powered by a 5.4-litre, single-overhead-camshaft, straight-eight engine - effectively a short-stroke version of that found in the stately Type 41 Royale - while the axles, brakes, cast-alloy wheels and rear-mounted transmission were other Royale carry-overs. Because of its lengthy run of success, Ettore Bugatti had remained stubbornly committed to his single-cam engine as found in the Type 46, only adopting the more advanced double-overhead-camshaft method of valve actuation, after much prompting by his eldest son Jean, on the Type 50 of 1930. But of all the many and varied car designs that he produced, it is the elegant and handsomely proportioned Type 46 that the legendary artist/engineer is said to have favoured most. Unlike the Royale, only six of which found customers, the Type 46 proved far more saleable, a total of 444 (plus 18 of the supercharged Type 46S) leaving the Molsheim factory by the time production ceased. The Roots-type blower provided the Type 46S with markedly superior acceleration and increased the car's top speed by around 5-10mph depending on the type of coachwork fitted, with some closed cars capable of reaching 100mph. The first Bugatti Type 46S imported into the UK, '46587' had been ordered in December 1932 by the British Bugatti agent, Colonel Sorel, and was delivered as a rolling chassis fitted with engine number '16S' on 20th January 1933. The Bugatti was bodied by coachbuilders James Young of Bromley, registered as 'AGO 37', and first owned by Percy Fawcett. Following Fawcett's death, in 1942 his daughter Enid sold the Type 46S to Colonel G M Giles, founder of the Bugatti Owners' Club in Britain (it was his last Bugatti). Colonel Giles sold the car to Bugatti collector Peter Hampton in February 1946, by which time it had covered some 38,000 miles. First stamped 'Ettore Bugatti Automobiles' on 31st March 1933, and recording the aforementioned changes of ownership, the original old-style buff logbook is in the history file, the latter being one of the biggest and most comprehensive Bonhams has ever seen. A typewritten sheet on file states that that 'AGO 37' passed to Robert Pattenden on 9th January 1953. It then became the property of The Half Way Garage in December 1953 before passing to dealers Metcalfe & Mundy Ltd in August 1956. According to this typewritten sheet, and contrary to the book Bugatti Type 46, La Petit Royale by Klein, Saunier et al, the car became the property of Miriam Louise Burnett on 23rd October 1956, with a change of address noted in August 1957. In actual fact, the car had been purchased by Miriam's husband, Charles Burnett II, lately domiciled in London, whose recollections of how he came to acquire the Bugatti were reproduced as part of an article by Allan McNab published in Bugantics (spring 2020 edition, copy on file). Burnett's Canadian wife, Miriam, was the daughter of W Garfield Weston, boss of the Weston group of companies, whose British business interests included Allied British Foods, Selfridges, Fortnum & Mason, and Heal's.Having just missed the opportunity to buy the Type 46S from Metcalfe & Mundy, Charles had the good fortune to spot the car six months later driving down London's Oxford Street. Flagging it down, he spoke to the owner, Trevor Thornlow, a musical director at the BBC, who was willing to sell it. 'The car lived up to every expectation and upon further reading Bugatti literature, I find that the Type 46 is indeed the choice family car that Bugatti manufactured,' declared its delighted new owner. The car was next registered to one of the family firms - Weston Biscuit Co Ltd of Slough - in 1958 before being registered to Charles Burnett II on 3rd January 1963. '46587' took part in the International Bugatti Touring Rallye in May 1963 (event programme and correspondence on file). A letter on file from the American Bugatti Owners' Club, dated December 1963, confirms that Burnett moved to Ontario, Canada and left the 46S in England. There is correspondence on file relating to servicing work carried out in the UK. The file also contains correspondence between Charles Burnett II and the VSCC during the 1960s, plus various bills and import paperwork for parts sourced from Garage Della Torre, Zurich. Burnett was temporarily living in Bermuda when he received a letter from the famous American Bugatti aficionado Gene Cesari, offering him a brand new Type 46S engine. Knowing it was probably the only specimen like it in the world, Burnett purchased it. Hidden in the Bugatti factory during the war, the engine arrived packed in thick grease and was later restored. This engine is included in the sale. Also contrary to the aforementioned Bugatti Type 46 book, correspondence on file from Burton's Gold Metal Biscuits Ltd, Weston, Slough dated March 1972 shows that the car was shipped on the Helene Roth of Gulf Containers Lines from Felixstowe to Miami, Florida to join Mr Burnett in Fort Lauderdale. A copy collection note is on file together with a State of Florida title in the name of Charles Burnett dated 27th April 1972. Also dating from the Bugatti's time in the USA is an invoice dated October 1989 from Abacus of Tidewater, Virginia for service work.The Bugatti next passed to Charles Burnett II's son, Charles Burnett III. British-born but mainly resident in Houston, Texas, Charles Burnett III was an avid collector of all kinds of transport: aircraft, tanks, speedboats and, of course, fast cars. In 2009 he set a new world speed record of 139.8mph for a steam-powered car (the British built and designed 'Inspiration'), breaking the existing record set by a Stanley Steamer in 1906! Tragically, he died in a helicopter crash in January 2018 aged 61. It is not known exactly when Charles Burnett III became owner, though there is a letter on file to DVLA, Swansea dated December 30th 1991 from A B Price Ltd asking the DVLA to reassign the registration 'AGO 37', so presumably the car was back in the UK by this time. There is further paperwork on file dating from the early 1990s, including correspondence with the Bugatti Owners' Club. Another document offers a breakdown of restoration and improvements made over the course of the next 20-or-so years: some £72,000 was spent with marque specialist Ivan Dutton over the period 2005-2008, while Don Law Racing carried out various works in 2013 and 2014 at a cost of £68,000 prior to the Bugatti being shipped to New Zealand (correspondence and reports available). While in Australia in 2017, '46578' had one of the 'suicide' doors fly open while travelling, causing some damage to the body. The Bugatti was r...

The exciting Ultima GTR road car is the result of over 20 years of extensive research and development and is a product that takes the Ultima marque to sensational levels of fit, finish and performance. The world renowned GTR really is a supercar in every sense of the word which has officially humbled every last mainstream car on the planet bar none. In 2006, the GTR was crowned as the fastest production car in the world, beating the likes of the Bugatti Veyron, Ferrari Enzo and McLaren F1 to a plethora of world speed acceleration and deceleration records. In 2007, the GTR was independently timed around the Top Gear test track and was found to be a blistering 6.2 seconds per lap faster than the £450,000 Ferrari Enzo, staggering the onlookers witnessing the remarkable feat!Built in 2005, this GTR is a well-known car to the Ultima community. Showing 8,551 miles it has had just three owners from new, the last owner maintained the car to a very high standard and fitted side and rear cameras, retrimmed the seats, had a ceramic coating of the exhausts and a rear brake caliper overhaul. In addition, the car has had a recent full suspension and corner weighted set up by Blaze Motor Sport. Running a Chevy 350 cui (5.7L) short block engine with a FAST self-tuning fuel injection system, dry sump, Porsche G50 six-speed gearbox, SD Superlock LSD, it has a Dyno read out as of July 2019 at 450bhp, de-tuned on the cams from 600hp to make it more road friendly. Fitted with a new radiator, new rear Toyo tyres, air conditioning and a new battery, the car remains in good overall condition and in excellent running order.
