Tennis Althea Gibson signed 5x3 white card. Althea Neale Gibson (August 25, 1927 - September 28, 2003) was an American tennis player and professional golfer, and one of the first Black athletes to cross the colour line of international tennis. In 1956, she became the first African American to win a Grand Slam title (the French Championships). The following year she won both Wimbledon and the US Nationals (precursor of the US Open), then won both again in 1958 and was voted Female Athlete of the Year by the Associated Press in both years. In all, she won 11 Grand Slam tournaments: five singles titles, five doubles titles, and one mixed doubles title and 56 career titles. Gibson was inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame and the International Women's Sports Hall of Fame. She is one of the greatest players who ever lived, said Bob Ryland, a tennis contemporary and former coach of Venus and Serena Williams. Martina Navratilova couldn't touch her. I think she'd beat the Williams sisters. In the early 1960s she also became the first Black player to compete on the Women's Professional Golf Tour. Good condition.

Francis Picabia (1879-1953), Jeudi (Thursday), signed and dated 'Francis Picabia 1951' (lower right), oil on canvas, 46x38,5 cm, The elusive and mercurial Francis Picabia (1879-1953) dedicated his life escaping any and every label that couldpossibly be put on him, whether it regarded his personal life or his artistic endeavours.In 1912 a New York Times critic called him the “Cuban who out-cubed the Cubists”, much to Picabia’s pleasure,as he loved to provoke and to play up his “exotic” background. Born in Paris to a wealthy Cuban father and aFrench mother with her own fortune, Picabia actually never fitted in any specific culture or art scene, nor couldhe or would he play the ‘poor Romantic painter’ card.After studying at the École des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, Picabia tries his hand at Impressionism, but whereasMonet and his colleagues work en plein air, Picabia uses postcards as inspiration. This approach is key tohis art: he is playing with the assumptions and structures of a certain style, translating these into a ready-madestyle, and thus questioning the whole movement altogether. The next typical Picabia move is to then make aclean break and jump to a completely different style, while vehemently condemning the previous one. Thisprocedure would become Picabia’s very trademark.Picabia’s career is one that covers most art movements of the first half of the 20th century. After a brief periodof experimenting with Impressionism and Fauvism, he transitions to Cubism, only to denounce the latteragain at the onset of World War I. During WWI Picabia spends quite some time in New York, then a haven forEuropean artists escaping the war. Here he plays a catalytic role in bringing modern art to America. He diveshead over heels into Dadaism together with his Dada friends Marcel Duchamp, Man Ray and the photographerAlfred Stieglitz. His Portraits Mécaniques, in which bodies morph into pistons and pumps, were exhibited atAlfred Stieglitz’s gallery 291 while Stieglitz’s journal of the same name carries numerous other Picabia’s Dadacontributions. Travelling between New York, Zürich and Barcelona, Picabia picks up new artistic ideas and artfriends as new toys to play with, ever ready to let go of them as soon as he becomes captivated by new ones.By 1920 Dada slowly sizzles out and we see Picabia denounce the movement in his typical way with the crypticstatement: “I separated from Dada because I believe in happiness and I loathe vomiting; the smells of cookingmake a rather unpleasant impression on me.”Dadaism is followed by a short fling with Surrealism while the frenzied mood of the 1920s and 1930s is reflectedin Picabia’s skipping between abstraction, figuration and optical illusion on an almost daily basis. Time andtime again he is playing with the fictional idea of originality and the boundaries of good taste. Materials likehousehold paint, feathers and pasta are put to good use in his everlasting attempt to deliberately mock theholiness of a certain style.In 1937, Picabia’s work takes yet another surprising turn as he starts to produce realistic nude portraits. Subjectsfrom soft-core pornographic magazines are worked over with smooth, fluid brushwork to imitate the sheen ofphotographic paper. Initially, their garish appearance was much frowned upon, decennia later to be connectedwith the work of Rauschenberg, Warhol and Koons and considered a tongue-in-cheek attack on mass media.After WWII Picabia leaves Southern France to return to Paris and although plagued by ill health during his finalyears, he keeps on working tirelessly. True to his fierceful dislike of consistency he creates hybrid works thatmerge the very disciplines he had previously helped shape. See the present lot (Jeudi/Thursday, no. 31) on sale,showing one of his latest works of 1951 and in itself reminiscent of a work by him of 1949, titled ‘Colloquium’.“Notre tête est ronde pour permettre à la pensée de changer de direction: Our heads are round so ourthoughts can change direction”, is another famous quote by Picabia. In 2016 the Museum of Modern Art in NewYork took this citation as the title for its extensive exhibition of Picabia’s work. (MoMa, 2016-17). After havingconsidered his manifold and capricious career we can see why. Impressionism, Cubism, Dadaism, Surrealism,Realism: Picabia has been there and done that. As his friend Marcel Duchamp once said, his oeuvre was a ‘akaleidoscopic series of art experiences’.Consistent in being inconsistent is one thing, but the true genius of Picabia does reveal itself if you try to lookpast Style with a capital S. With wispy watercolours on the one hand and kitschy photo-realism on the other,often in one and the same year, he is the first to push the boundaries between high art and low art, betweendelicate good taste and downright kitsch.Especially in this era where the premises of high art and low art are continuously being questioned, Picabia canbe looked upon as a refreshing example who knew how to scramble elements of good and bad taste. Or, in hisown words: “If you want to have clean ideas, change them like shirts.”-Francis Picabia: ‘the grasshopper of contemporary art’ in: Christies, stories, 18-02-2022, Francis Picabia: ‘the grasshopper of contemporary art’ | Christie’s(christies.com)-Francis Picabia: Our Heads Are Round so Our Thoughts Can Change Direction / by Anne Umland et al.

He has taken part in a very large number of sorties, involving attacks on targets in the Ruhr, Berlin, Hamburg and many others equally important to the enemy's war effort. Throughout the operations he has displayed outstanding determination and the successes obtained are an excellent tribute to his great skill. His loyal and devoted service has been worthy of the highest praise"; photocopy of DSO recommendation; together with his Flying Log Book (Air Observer) covering the period January 1940 to 3rd August 1945 and Signed By Wing Commander Guy Gibson (4 times), Flt/Lt David Shannon, Flt/Sgt Burpee (all to be Dam Buster Pilots) and W/Cdr John Searby (one or two pages missing).

The targets were the Research & Development Works, the Production Factories and the Camp and Settlement. A "spoof attack" on Berlin by Mosquito fighters diverted the German attention away from the real target area. 600 bombers took part in the Peenemunde Raid but it was Searby's Lancaster (with Scrivener as Navigator) which took control of the Bomber Command attack and stayed with it. Searby's mention of Scrivener in the publication states "Norman Scrivener, small of stature and with more than a hundred heavy bomber sorties behind him had been my Navigator for some time: his role tonight was a vital one for he had to get the aircraft to the target alone and ahead of all the others with precisely 5 minutes in hand. We would need this to complete our survey of the aiming points before the real show started". After the Path Finders had marked the area of attack with yellow and green flares the bombers followed in. Searby's Lancaster had to orbit several times to ensure that targets were being hit. As it became increasingly difficult to determine the various features once bombing commenced, the leading Lancaster had to fly lower and as Searby remarked "to my horror the gunners informed me that they had seen large four thousand pound bombs falling past our aircraft: this was most alarming but was to be expected since many bombers were flying well above the height at which at we were orbiting....The possibility of our being walloped by a passing 'block buster' was more frightening than anything the enemy could do". Forty four-engined bombers and one Mosquito failed to return with the loss of more than 280 Officers and NCOs.
