* MERVYN GOODE (BRITISH b.1948), A SUSSEX FARMHOUSE ON THE RIVER ARUN oil on canvas, signed 51cm x 67cm (20 x 26 inches) Framed Note: Mervyn Goode is one of the country's leading and most respected traditional landscape painters in oil. His first One-man Exhibition, at the Highton Gallery in London in 1970, which featured entirely oil paintings depicting the Hampshire landscape, was a 'sell out', and stimulated considerable interest and achieved rare acclaim from Collectors and Critics, both here and abroad. Numerous One-man Exhibitions held in London and the provinces; a One-man Exhibition in the U.S.A; countless invited featurings in Mixed Exhibitions in Public and Private Galleries throughout the country; featurings in television documentaries; and an ever-increasing demand from Collectors in the UK and abroad. Mervyn Goode's work has been reproduced by the Medici Society, Kingsmead Publications, the Bucentaur Gallery, CCA Stationery, Royle Publications, Country Cards, the Almanac Gallery, the Paper House Group, Phoenix Trading and Rosentiel's (who, during 2004, launched a publication of strictly limited edition prints of two of his paintings, each being an issue of 295 copies signed by the artist), and in numerous Fine Art Books and Periodicals.

A 1st Edition Private Eye, 1961 Vol. 1, no. 1, six pages stapled and printed on white paper, October 25th, 1961, along with a photocopy of the original letter from Andrew Osmond to Christopher Matthew reading "Dear Chris, one lot of a hundred and one of 50 of our new paper. (NB; This is just a trial run!). Could you arrange for the distribution of these as soon as poss this week ... " Provenance: Christopher Matthew, the first owner Taken from Andrew Osmond's obituary in The Independent in 1999: "When Christopher Booker, Willie Rushton and Richard Ingrams (whom Osmond had met at Oxford) put together the first issue of "Private Eye" in 1961, they approached Osmond for funds. To their amazement he coughed up the then vast sum of pounds 300. Although memories differ, it is generally agreed that Osmond thought up the name "Private Eye" during a meeting in Rushton's bedroom, which doubled as the editorial office in the early days. He then helped sell the first issue, wandering through Chelsea pubs and offering it to likely looking readers for six old pence a copy."
