MOORE BOBBY: (1941-1993) English Footballer, Captain of the England World Cup winning team, 1966. Rare A.L.S., Bobby Moore, on the verso of a slim oblong 8vo colour picture postcard showing two views of the Guadalajara Hilton hotel in Mexico, n.p. (Jalisco, Mexico), n.d. (June 1970), to Mrs. Kynaston in Manchester. Moore thanks his correspondent for her letter, which he greatly appreciated, and comments `Hoping to bring the cup back to England for all the folks at home`. Some light overall age wear and creasing, G The year 1970 was a bittersweet, mixed and eventful one for Moore. He was again named as captain for the 1970 World Cup but there was heavy disruption to preparations when an attempt was made to implicate Moore in the theft of a bracelet from a jeweller in Bogotá, Colombia, where England were involved in a warm-up game. A young assistant had claimed that Moore had removed the bracelet from the hotel shop without paying for it. There was no doubt that Moore was in the shop-he had gone in with Bobby Charlton to look for a gift for Charlton`s wife. The accusation was not proved. Moore was arrested and then released, he then travelled with the England team to play another match winning his 80th cap, and England were 2-0 victors, but when the team plane stopped back in Colombia on the return to Mexico, Moore was detained and placed under four days of house arrest. Diplomatic pressure, plus the obvious weakness of the evidence, eventually saw the case dropped entirely, and an exonerated Moore returned toMexico to rejoin the squad and prepare for the World Cup.

MALANGA GERARD: (1943- ) American Poet and Photographer, an assistant to Andy Warhol from 1963-70 who played lead parts in many of his early films. An interesting A.L.S., Gerard & Eileen, three pages, 4to (onion skin), Xania, Crete, Greece, 22nd May 1972, to the literary agent Andrew Wylie. Malanga states that he has been staying in Crete for two weeks, after having left Italy (`because of the air of appressiveness and Western influence that hangs over the atmosphere like a wet rag`) and continues to refer to a party following a reading, `Patti Smith was conspicuously absent from the reading if my memory serves me correctly, which is the last slap in the face I will ever take from her. After all, how many times does someone turn the other cheek. She`s proven to be what she`s wanted to be all along: a professional groupie with social-climbing overtones accompanied by an ego as blotted as a water-logged melon. I`m not out to publicly make her a cultural whipping boy; it would only add to her defensive/offensive offensive weaponry arsenal of tricks. It is not my nature to ask for favors or to be given thanks; but to see Patti acknowledge friends of Warner Bros., Reprise, Bearsville Records etc., and to Bobby Neuwirth was a knife thrust in my heart....I really don`t recall any of them having been responsible for getting her first book of poems published. But if you remember correctly we know who did! Patti`s reason for not citing my name was this; in her very own words: "I didn`t want to give you any free publicity". She never came to my reading because there was one of those rock-record company food-catering, boos parties that coincided, and Patti`s always one for putting in an appearance-she thinks it`s chic. She should only come to the realization that nothing is more important than anything else....I find it somewhat difficult to say here and now that for all the love I have for Patti I won`t be helping her fortify her career. She`s on her own from here on in. But I must say this without trying to sound like a male chauvinist pig by making a distinction of the sexes: that Seventh Heaven is the most exciting book of poems I`ve encountered and read. Not since H.D. [Hilda Doolittle, 1886-1961, American Poet] has a woman poet come across with such strength and originality. Every poem in Seventh Heaven contains the tone of that inner voice that is unmistakably Patti Smith!` Malanga continues his letter by urging Wylie to contact a Patent Office, `You don`t realize how hot "hot dice" is! With the Rolling Stones` Tumblin` Dice coming out someone`s bound to pick up on a similar idea. You should devise a word game that could be played by everyone and copyright this idea, keeping it all in the family.` Accompanied by the original envelope hand addressed by Malanga and signed by him in full to the return address panel. A letter of fine content. A few light stains, not affecting the text or signature, otherwise VG Patti Smith (1946- ) American Singer-Songwriter, Poet & Visual Artist.

2 rare WW1 period glazed and wood framed games of skill. ‘Sky Pirates’. ‘A Duel In The Air’. A game of ‘British Manufacture’, using a small ball bearing (representing the aeroplane) running in a grooved track made of card. The track has 11 holes (shells) for the ball bearing to negotiate. The picture on the card is of a British Bi-Plane (bottom left) and a Zeppelin (top right) within the beam of a searchlight. The idea is to complete the game and to destroy the Zeppelin. Plus another similar game by the same maker- ‘Trench Football’. Basically the same idea with a ball used to miss the holes in the trenches. The theme this time is to beat the German defenders who are notable characters including Count von Zeppelin and to score a goal by dropping the ball into the Kaiser’s mouth.
