Hankinson, from the Governor of Holloway Prison, and one from the Governor of Maidstone ('...The above named Suffragist prisoner has expressed a desire to see you in your ministerial capacity...'), 1906-1913; other correspondence from the authorities regarding the release of prisoners including Elsie Howey who was refused visits due to misbehaviour, with article from The Suffragette on the matter, 17 January 1913; carbon copy of a report on prisoner Marie Neill ('...has refused to take her food in the ordinary way... but she takes it from a feeding cup...'), February 1913iii) Autograph letters of thanks from grateful suffragists, including Emmeline and Frederick Pethick Lawrence (two autograph, one typed '...It is simply splendid the way in which the spirit of women is breaking down the coercive policy of the Government...'); Maude Fitzherbert awaiting trial in Edinburgh ('...I will not fear what men can do unto me...'); Edmée Manning ('...your never-to-be-forgotten kindness... I hoped to have the pleasure of introducing you to my fellow criminals who are all very anxious to meet you...'); and Marie Neill ('...Those brutes seemed less brutal or their treatment tormented me less... never mind Mr H is coming today...'); with Hankinson's autograph notes on suffrage, beginning by listing women who were suffragists 'without knowing it' ('Mrs Gaskell/ Florence Nightingale/Harriet Martineau'), with other notes on how he became involved in the movement, 3 pages on lined paper, 4to, [dated in pencil 11/1935], c.30 pages, folio and smaller, 1912-1913iv) Group of papers with regards to accusations of misconduct, alleging Hankinson conducted a conversation with prisoners Violet Bland and Charlotte Marsh in whispers '...so it was impossible to hear whether any information was given to the prisoner or not...', his dismissal and the appointment of Rev. Henry Gow in his place, including official letters from the Prison Commission, Hankinson's notes and draft replies, c.50 pages, folio (326 x 216mm.) and smaller, 1912-1914 v) Printed matter including; handbill Abstract of the Regulations relating to the Treatment and Conduct of Convicted Prisoners; handbill To stop the torture of Forcible Feeding and to Repeal the 'Cat and Mouse Act'; and booklet Roll of Honour/ Suffragette Prisoners 1905-1914, presentation copy inscribed 'To Hankinson from Lady Pethick-Lawrence' in green ink on upper coverFootnotes:'I WAS IN PRISON AND THOU VISITEDST ME': THE PAPERS OF REV. FREDERICK HANKINSON.Reverend Hankinson came from a family dedicated to Unitarianism and belief in the equality of men and women, so was naturally drawn to the suffrage movement. He was a friend of Frederick Pethick Lawrence and his wife and joined the Men's League for Women's Suffrage in 1907, becoming a prison visitor in his capacity as a Unitarian minister in 1908. He visited suffragettes incarcerated in Holloway, Brixton and Aylesbury, reading them letters from home and bringing comfort from the outside world, as our letters of appreciation attest. Amongst those he visited were Edmée Manning, Emmeline Pethick Lawrence, Muriel Matters and Katherine Gatty but, although she requested to see him (at the request of Emmeline Pankhurst), a visit to the first hunger striker Marion Wallace-Dunlop was not to be (see a group of her letters in this collection below). In a letter now held in the Fawcett Library, Dr Alice Ker wrote to her daughter: '...[he] sees Unitarians... Theosophists and all the queer sects. As he is our spiritual advisor, the wardress sits outside the glass door during his visit. He is the brickiest of brick of anybody yet – gives any amount of time and trouble to us...' (Crawford, E., The Women's Suffrage Movement, A Reference Guide 1866-1928, 1999, p.268).A portion of these papers are concerned with his dispute with the Prison Commission, who removed him from his duties after accusations that he had broken prison regulations by whispering to two prisoners, Violet Bland and Charlotte Marsh. He strenuously denied he was passing on political information but, nonetheless, a Mr Gow was appointed in his place, and Hankinson never returned. As a memento of his visits he retained a list of all prisoners visited by him between 1907 and 1913 and the present autograph album. Hankinson joined the United Suffragists in 1914 and during the First World War worked in Hungary for the Society of Friends. In the 1920's he returned to Hungary as a delegate of the American Unitarian Women's League and was an active committee member until his death in 1960.These papers were bequeathed to Reginald Couzens, the grandfather of the present owners whom he had met through the Unitarian church.Provenance: The Rev. Frederick Hankinson (1875-1960); Reginald Andrew Couzens (b.1904); thence by descent to the present owner.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
Lot 258
WALLACE-DUNLOP (MARION)Two autograph letters signed ('Marion Wallace-Dunlop') to Mr Hankinson, writing shortly after her release from Holloway, the first saying she has been discharged ('...I felt a little mean in entering prison as a Unitarian for I am what people call a Free thinker... Miss Pankhurst had especially told me to apply for you. I also knew you were a friend of our movement all the same I had an uncomfortable feeling I was not quite playing the game and I'm quite glad we never met! Please excuse this untidy letter... The doctor strictly forbids my getting up as I am still weak from my long fast...'); the second asking about Unitarianism and asking him to pass on her advice to fellow hunger strikers ('...I can't help feeling a little anxious about the stone throwers who will probably go to prison today. I do hope they won't try & follow my example... for young healthy women with normal appetites starvation would be horrible torture... I am naturally a very small eater... If you see any of them please tell them to keep on drinking water, to lie down all the time, to think of other things and above all to keep their minds on the funny side of it all...'), 7 pages, 8vo (168 x 124mm.), Ellerslie Tower, Ealing, W., 9 July and 'Monday' [1909]; with a letter of discharge from James Scott, Governor of H.M.P. Holloway dated 8 July 1909 (3)Footnotes:'TELL THEM TO KEEP ON DRINKING WATER, TO LIE DOWN ALL THE TIME, TO THINK OF OTHER THINGS AND ABOVE ALL TO KEEP THEIR MINDS ON THE FUNNY SIDE OF IT ALL': The instigator of the hunger strike gives advice to fellow inmates.Scottish artist Marion Wallace-Dunlop was the first to undertake a hunger strike in prison, an action which became a powerful and emotive tool in the suffragette fight for the vote. An active member of the WSPU she was arrested several times and in June 1909 she was imprisoned for stencilling an advertisement for the 29 June deputation to the House of Commons and an inflammatory message on the wall of St Stephen's Hall (see lot....). She fasted for 91 hours before she was released: 'As with all the weapons employed by the WPSU, its first use sprang directly from the decision of a sole protagonist...' (Crawford, p.179). Her success quickly led to the adoption of the hunger strike as official policy of the WSPU and the subsequent government practice of force-feeding a few months later. She asked Hankinson to visit her at the request of Emmeline Pankhurst who perhaps saw him as a useful conduit of information between prison and the outside world but it would appear from these letters that they never actually met. Resourceful and determined, as demonstrated in our letters, she also devised a new stencilling machine to quickly add messages to the walls of Downing Street, designed many of the spectacular WSPU processions and was one of the organisers of the window-smashing campaign of November 1911. She was close to the Pankhursts and was a pallbearer at Mrs Pankhurst's funeral in 1928. Provenance: The Rev. Frederick Hankinson (1875-1960); Reginald Andrew Couzens (b.1904); thence by descent to the present owner.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

DOWNING (EDITH)Hunger-strike medal awarded by the WSPU to Edith Downing, in silver and enamel construction, the top bar fitted with pin and the obverse engraved 'For Valour', the suspension bar in silver and enamel (the reverse engraved 'Fed by Force 1/3/12' and the obverse with striped enamelled bars), the disc 22mm. diameter, engraved on the obverse 'Hunger Strike', and on the reverse 'Edith Downing', maker's name engraved on reverse of top bar ('Toye 67 Theobalds Rd/ London'), overall c.75 x 40mm.; in original purple roan presentation box, lined with green velvet, padded silk inner lid with dedication to Downing printed in gilt, box c.60 x 102mm., [1912]Footnotes:HUNGER STRIKE MEDAL OF WELSH-BORN SUFFRAGETTE AND SCULPTOR EDITH DOWNING.Edith Elizabeth Downing (1857-1931) was born in Cardiff and spent most of her working life in Chelsea, where she became known primarily for her bronze and marble busts and figures. In 1908 she joined the Chelsea branch of the WSPU along with her sister, using her artistic talents to support the cause, helping to organise processions with Marion Wallace-Dunlop and selling her work to raise funds.Her first arrest came in 1911 when she broke a window of Somerset House and was sentenced to a week in jail. The following year she was again arrested for throwing a stone through a West End shop window during a mass WSPU window-smashing campaign. This time she was sentenced to three months in Holloway Prison, where went on hunger strike and was forcibly fed. A vocal critic of police and prison brutality, hers was one of the embroidered signatures on the Suffragette Handkerchief. On her release in June 1912, Downing was awarded the WSPU medal. Her sister Caroline was also awarded a medal, which is now part of the collection in the Houses of Parliament.The military-style medals were awarded by the leaders of the WSPU to suffragettes who had gone on hunger-strike in protest at not being recognised as political prisoners. They hang on a length of ribbon in the WSPU colours from a silver pin bar engraved 'For Valour' in the style of the Victoria Cross. On the obverse is engraved 'Hunger Strike', and the reverse is engraved with the name of the recipient. Some medals had silver bars added in recognition of periods of hunger strike, or striped enamelled bars to denote forcible feeding. Edith Downing's medal has a silver bar engraved 'Fed by Force 1/3/12', actually the date she was imprisoned prior to going on hunger strike and being forcibly fed.The medals were made by Toye & Co. at a cost of £1.00 each, and were first presented in St James' Hall in early August 1909, to women who had gone on hunger strike while serving sentences in Holloway Prison. Downing's medal comes in its original purple box with green velvet lining, and the wording on the inside lid, printed in gold on white silk 'Presented to Edith Downing by the Women's Social and and Political Union in recognition of a gallant action, whereby through endurance to the last extremity of hunger and hardship a great principle of political justice was vindicated'.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ** VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

DOWNING (EDITH)Silver 'Portcullis' or 'Holloway' brooch awarded to Edith Downing, depicting the portcullis of the House of Commons, two hanging chains and superimposed broad arrow in purple, green and white enamel, with safety chain and pin, stamped 'SILVER and Toye & Co/London' on reverse, 25 x 20mm., [1909]Footnotes:Known variously as the Portcullis Badge, Holloway Prison Brooch and the Victoria Cross of the Union, the silver brooch was presented by the WSPU to women imprisoned at Holloway Prison for militant suffragette activity. Designed by Sylvia Pankhurst and manufactured by Toye & Co. London, it includes the portcullis symbol for parliament, the chains of imprisonment and the broad arrow of the prison uniform picked out in purple, white and green enamel, the colours of the WSPU. Having been initially mentioned in Votes for Women on 16 April 1909, the first brooches were presented by Christabel and Emmeline Pankhurst, Annie Kenney and Emmeline Pethick Lawrence at a large meeting at the Albert Hall on 29 April to coincide with the meeting in London of the International Woman's Suffrage Alliance. It was presented with the illuminated addresses also designed by Sylvia Pankhurst that had been awarded to released prisoners since September 1908.This brooch was awarded to Welsh-born suffragette and artist Edith Downing (1857-1931). Whilst producing artwork and sculpture to raise proceeds for the WSPU and collaborating with Marion Wallace-Dunlop on numerous processions, pageants and tableaux, she was also involved in more dangerous militant protest. On 18 November 1910 she was arrested after being involved in the brutal 'Black Friday' disturbances, during which she declared that she nearly lost her life (Crawford, p.172). In March 1912 she was again arrested after breaking the window of a fine art dealer in Regent Street as part of a 200-strong protest and sent to Holloway for four months where she took part in hunger strike (for which she received a Hunger Strike Medal) and was forcibly fed.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ** VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

ALBUM – CONSTANCE MARSDENAutograph album of photographer Constance B. J. Marsden of Redcliffe Gardens, South Kensington, containing some 35 signatures and quotations including Christabel Pankhurst ('Aspirations are proportional to destinies'), Emmeline Pankhurst ('Votes for Women'), Emily Wilding Davison ('Deeds, not Words... March 30th 1909 1 month. Holloway./ July 30th 1909 2 months Holloway (Hunger-Strike)/ Sept. 4th 1909 2 months Strangeways... Oct 20th 1909 1 month (hard) Strangeways (2 Hunger-Strike & Hosepipe)'), Flora Drummond ('...I am writing in honour of one of the best 'Votes for Women' paper sellers...'), Constance Lytton and her alias Jane Warton, Charlotte Despard, Annie Ainsworth, Frederick William Pethick Lawrence, Marion Wallace-Dunlop, Ethel Smyth (musical quotation 'We have waited so long, we will wait now no more' dated June 1913), Catherine Emily Perie ('nurse to Mrs Pankhurst'), Mildred J. Marsden, Emmeline Pethick Lawrence, Laura Ainsworth ('Ride on to Victory'), green calf, worn, 4to (165 x 198mm.), 1908 to 1913Footnotes:'ONE OF THE BEST 'VOTES FOR WOMEN' PAPER SELLERS': The album of a WSPU photographer and activist.Constance Marsden's album reads like a 'Who's Who' of the suffrage movement. She was a member of the WSPU and photographed Emmeline Pankhurst in August/September 1913. The portrait was subsequently accepted by the Royal Photographic Society of Great Britain for an exhibition at the Royal Society of British Artists in Suffolk Street (Crawford, Elizabeth, The Women's Suffrage Movement: A Reference Guide 1866-1928, 1999, p.548). The entry in the album from Flora Drummond dated July 1910 makes reference to her considerable paper-selling skills on behalf of the cause. In the summer of 1910, she came third in a sales competition run by the WPSU for individually selling 1,448 copies of Votes for Women in a three month period, behind Miss McKenzie of Scarborough (1,797) and Mrs Axed of North Kensington (1,652) (pigott-gorrie.blogspot.com). One of nine siblings, her sister Sybil (a dressmaker trading under the name Madame Mantalini) is known to have shown her suffragist affiliations by making an anti-government statement on her census form of 1911. Her father, Algernon Moses Marsden, was a fine art dealer whose artists included James Tissot, who painted him in 1877, but, by the turn of the century, had been declared bankrupt several times (womanandhersphere.com suffrage-stories blog).As well as containing the signatures of Emmeline and Christabel Pankhurst, other contributors to this album include the suffragette martyr, Emily Wilding Davison, and illustrator Marion Wallace-Dunlop, who is credited with being the first to initiate the hunger strike as a means of retaliation. According to Votes for Women, Ethel Smyth's March of the Women with words by Cicely Hamilton was 'at once a hymn and a call to battle'. Also represented is Lady Constance Bulwer-Lytton (known as Constance Lytton), the author of Prisons and Prisoners who signs her alias 'Jane Warton' beneath her own name. Not wishing for preferential treatment due to her social status, she disguised herself, cut her hair and used an alias, taking on the character of 'an ugly London seamstress'. Subsequently, when arrested she suffered the same harsh treatment accorded to other prisoners and was repeatedly force fed, leading to a heart attack and several strokes (her book, a copy of which is offered in the present sale, was written with her left hand). Her extremism went as far as carving 'V' for Votes for Women on her chest whilst in prison using a needle and broken hatpin.Provenance: The Rev. Frederick Hankinson (1875-1960); Reginald Andrew Couzens (b.1904); thence by descent to the present owner.Suffragettes: The Hankinson-Goode Collection (lots 52-110) This remarkable collection of suffragette ephemera was assembled by the current owners' late parents, Myrna and Philip Goode, who inherited and then built on the collection bequeathed to them by the Rev. Frederick Hankinson (see lot 72). As the owners recall: 'Our Great Grandmother took her adopted son, my grandfather, to one of the Rev. Hankinson's churches and that this is how they met. My grandfather, Reginald Andrew Couzens, was born in 1904 and 'Hank' reputedly looked upon him as a surrogate son. My grandfather stayed close to Hank all his life. He did his accounts, cut his hair and various other things, right up until Hank died. My grandmother used to boast about the time that, through Hank, Lord and Lady Pethick Lawrence came to tea. With both our grandparents coming from very ordinary and relatively poor families, it was a huge honour to have gentry in their home. 'When Hank died in 1960, it was discovered that he had left his entire estate to our grandfather. They found Hank's papers and the autograph albums and were fascinated by them. At the time, they were worth very little, and there was little interest in the Suffrage movement, but our parents thought they were important historically. Now, we are amazed at their foresight. The whole lot could easily have ended up being thrown away. The documents were packed into boxes and stored in our grandparents' loft, unsorted, until our grandfather died. My grandmother then gave them to our parents, who began to go through and research them. 'Our parents became more and more interested in the subject and started collecting bits and pieces they came across, which in the 60s and 70s were still cheap to buy. We would go to any postcard fair we came across locally and on holiday, and search through for Suffragette postcards. It was on one of these jaunts in Norfolk that the window-smashers set was discovered. It seems hard to believe, but at that time a lot of the sellers didn't really know who or what Suffragettes were. 'As time went on and material became much better-known and sought-after, our parents decided to invest in some lots that would enhance the collection. They bought the Emily Wilding Davison and Duval collections at auction, the Suffragette newspapers and so on. They wanted their collection to be useful as well as giving them pleasure, and so they put on several exhibitions using their material, and shared documents with researchers, students and museums, including the Museum of London. They gave talks in schools and for societies in the area as well. Although the time has come to place the care of the collection in other hands, Hankinson remains an important part of our family's history and his legacy has had a huge and positive impact on all of us'.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: •• Zero rated for VAT, no VAT will be added to the Hammer Price or the Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

According to this 'official' souvenir it took 'two men over two hours to erase the violet ink stains with pumice-stone, soap and water'. Whilst in prison she instigated the first hunger strike. A week later on the 29th, a deputation set out from Caxton Hall to confront Asquith at the House of Commons. On being rebuffed by Asquith's private secretary at the door, Emmeline Pankhurst struck the unfortunate policeman, whilst another knocked off his hat. This resulted in a prolonged melee in which 3,000 police were engaged and some 108 women were arrested. Towards the end of the demonstration, a small group partook in breaking the windows of the Privy Council, Treasury and Home Office, using small stones wrapped in paper and hung on strings so as not to injure the people inside (Andrew Rosen, Rise Up, Women!, 1974, p.118-119).For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

The Jaguar Mk. II was a medium sized saloon built from 1959 to 1967 as a successor to the 2.4 and 3.4 litre models. The Mk. II was handsome, powerful, and good handling saloon which was offered with a choice of three six-cylinder twin cam engines; 2.4 litre, 3.4 litre or 3.8 litre. After the appreciation of the Mk. I, Jaguar's successor was well received thus making a good car even better. Similar in appearance but with a bigger glass area, it boasted a wider track to improve road holding together with minor front suspension changes to reduce body roll and fitted with the new Dunlop disc brakes all-round rather than drum brakes. The 210bhp 3.4 litre engine variant proved to be the most popular, offering the best compromise between performance and economy. Naturally, the performance was excellent, and the Mk. II has enjoyed great success on the track and can still be a very competitive historic race car. Raced by all the top drivers of the day including Graham Hill, Roy Salvadori and Michael Parkes, the Mk. II scored victories throughout saloon car races in the 60's and was also raced across Europe in the Tour de France and Monte-Carlo rally. The car also gained a reputation as a capable 'getaway car' among the criminal underworld. The Mk. II had seating for five adults and in 3.8 litre specification, could outrun almost any other car on the road.This example is presented in light Quartz Gunmetal Grey with blue leather interior. This was originally a Rhodesian car which we understand was imported to the UK in 2014 and registered with the DVLA in May 2015. Its original 3.4 engine has been replaced by the more potent and powerful 3.8 litre which is mated to a Borg Warner three-speed automatic gearbox. The interior is in good condition with the burr walnut woodwork looking good and is complimented by the Moto-Lita wooden steering wheel, so evocative of this era. The car comes with an original Jaguar workshop manual, Jaguar Heritage Trust certificate and various invoices. These are quintessentially British and evoke many nostalgic memories for a great deal of people, this is no exception!
