Ω A finely turned ivory ball game or 'bilboquet' , early 19th century, 19cm high, 7cm wide The origins of the game bilboquet are somewhat uncertain although there are documents placing the game as far back as 16th century France. Designed for one player, the game was supposedly invented to train children s hand to eye co-ordination in hunting cultures with the aim being to throw a tethered object into the air and catch it on a pin. Records testify to bilboquet being particularly popular in the Royal courts of Europe during the late 18th and early 19th centuries through their depiction in paintings, including a portrait of the Masters Blair, by Thomas Beach, (signed and dated 1769) portraying Charles and Henry Blair, the Children of Charles Blair and Lady Mary Fane, in a wooded landscape holding a bilboquet (formerly with Mallett).Please note, this lot may be subject to CITES regulations if exported from the EU.Cites Regulations Please note that this lot (lots marked with the symbol Ω in the printed catalogue) may be subject to CITES regulations when exported.

[DODGSON, Rev. C.L.] Doublets: a Word-Puzzle. By Lewis Carroll. First Edition. title within black-ruled border, 39pp.; publisher's blind-ruled & gilt-lettered red cloth, with their blind-tooled monogram on upper cover, slim. 8vo. Macmillan and Co., 1879. * inscribed by the author (in his purple ink) at head of title - 'Alice Hull / from the Author'. * Dodgson had met the Hull family at Eastbourne, where he holidayed for many years from 1876 - a plaque at 7 Lushington Road marks the location of his chosen guest house. Doubtless the five daughters of the London barrister Henry Hull were a welcome addition to his 'child friends', with Eastbourne itself being a fruitful hunting ground for others. Doublets, a word transformation puzzle, had appeared in embryonic form as 'Word-Links' (a cyclostyled leaflet) the year previous, becoming in its developed form a very popular parlour game. As well as his sisters in Guildford, another lived in Brighton, also much visited by the author - who on occasion took a steamer trip between the two resorts; indeed it is at the latter place that Dodgson had a few copies of his 'legendary' pantomime song printed - thus far none have (knowingly) surfaced. Perhaps here, however, we may be able to claim an uncommon sighting of 'Oxford in Eastbourne'. Illustrated
