His work hangs in many civic, corporate, and private collections. Danny Ferguson entered the Glasgow School of Art in 1941. His studies were interrupted and he served in the RAF in the Far East. Post-war studies at GSA gave him the highly-coveted diploma in drawing and painting, winning at the same time the RSA prize and the RSA travelling scholarship. In 1954 he married Margaret Dunn, herself a graduate of the Glasgow School of Art and a very fine embroideress and weaver. Ferguson was a great sportsman and in his early days he played football for various teams including Blantyre Victoria, where he took over as centre-half from Jock Stein. He was frequently snooker champion of the Glasgow Art Club, was keen on bowling and was also a member of the Tighnabruich Curling Club. From early post-war years he was recognised as an outstanding teacher in the east end of Glasgow and gave credibility to art education in these formative years, gaining recognition from Jordanhill Training College and Her Majesty's Inspectorate in Scotland for the pioneering and impressive results he was achieving. During these years he also taught in the evening school at the GSA. He joined the permanent staff of the GSA in 1968 and was one of the most devoted teachers the school has known.

Crabtree, Second World War Defence and War Medals, unnamed as issued. Mounted as worn. James Joseph (Jimmy) Crabtree (1895-1965) was born in the Lancashire town of Clitheroe, the second son of James Crabtree a Brewer from Burnley who married Margaret a Clitheroe girl in 1884. He was a pupil at Stoneyhurst College, Clitheroe and later worked as a clerk in one of the cotton mills owned by the chairman of Blackburn Rovers Football Club. He was to become a very successful goalkeeper before and after the First World War playing a total of 77 games in the Football League. Initially playing for Stonyhurst College he played for Clitheroe Amateurs and performed so well that he made ten appearances for Blackburn Rovers proir to the War, deputising in goal for the final game in 1914 when Blackburn clinched the championship. He also played in goal for England amateurs in 1914 when England beat Wales 9-1 at Home Park, Plymouth. After the War he made 60 appearances for Rochdale who played in the third Division, despite being the regular keeper, on one occasion he scored two goals whilst playing at left back. In 1924 he joined Accrington Stanley where he managed just six first team appearances. Crabtree's Military career began almost as soon as Britain entered the War, being amongst the first to volunteer joining the 1/5th Loyal North Lancashire Regiment on the 5th September 1914. He left for France on the 11th February the following year and his abilities were soon recognised as he was recommended for Officer Training on the 9th October 1915. He returned to France as a 2nd Lieutenant with the 1st Loyal North Lancs. He was wounded during fighting at the Battle of Morval on the 25th September 1916, the final objective of Flers-Courcelette as part of the Battle of the Somme when this area was held by the German 1st Army. A short spell in Hospital saw him return to his unit by December and he saw further action at the Battle of Arras and then at the Third Battle of Ypres known as Passchendale. Whilst fighting at St Julien, on the 26th September 1917 his courage and leadership led to the award of the Military Cross (London Gazette 26th September 1917, p9974. The London Gazette of the 9th January 1918 p596 providing a citation:. 'For Gallantry and Distinguished Service in the Field: When his company commander had been killed and the other officer wounded, he led his company on and captured his objective in spite of heavy machine gun fire. He afterwards reorganised the company, which had suffered many casualties, and successfully consolidated his position. During the three days which followed, his splendid cheeriness and disregard for personal safety very greatly inspired his men. Four weeks later he was wounded for a second time and returned home to Britain to recover, he would not return to the fighting leaving the Army in 1919. Playing his part for a second time between 1939 and 1945 he served with the Border Regiment and was promoted from a War Substantive Captain to Captain from 1st April 1949 with seniority from the 3rd July 1940. He continued his part in football becoming a linesman and referee in later years. Married to his wife Frances he worked as Travelling representative for a brewery, perhaps his Fathers'.

The Who: A Custom T-Shirt Made For Keith Moon, Designed And Printed By Richard Barnes, 1974, one of only two produced, with distinctive Panic In New York and Moon Doom graphics, the other worn by Keith for the Charlton Athletic Football Club concert, 18th May 1974, this one was the backup and stored ever since, Footnotes: Provenance: From the collection of Richard Barnes, who was Pete Townshend's sixties art school flatmate. Barnes ran the Railway Hotel in 1964 where The Who had a residency. It was at this historic venue that Townshend first smashed his guitar and where managers Kit Lambert and Chris Stamp first met the band. Barnes was the Who's first official biographer with his best-selling book 'The Who: Maximum R&B', first released in 1983. A crowd of some 50,000 attended the day's events at the Charlton football ground, with support acts Lou Reed, Humble Pie, Bad Company, Lindisfarne, Maggie Bell and Montrose. The Who took to the stage that evening and, whilst it wasn't perhaps one of their best concerts musically - Pete Townshend admitted to being drunk - the crowd were well pleased with the characteristic energy of the band's performance. Please contact the department for images of Keith Moon performing in 1974 while wearing the only other shirt produced with this design. For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
