Cary. Strand. just above VIRGO; each pivoted via the poles within a brass meridian ring divided for degrees, and set within engraved paper horizon ring with compass points and degrees in both directions, Zodiac and calendar scales, the stands comprising four delicate ebonised baluster turned supports united by conforming cross-stretchers over bell-shaped feet.Each 13.3cm (5.25ins) high, 10.8cm (4.25ins) diameter overall. Provenance: Consigned as part of a group of items mostly originally the property of Harry Taft Hayward (1868 - 1930) and Edith Wires (1872 - 1962). Members of the Boston elite, they had two daughters, Mary Elizabeth Hayward (1906-1976) and Harriet Taft Hayward (1907-1968), both painted by the artist John Lavery. They latterly lived at Oakwald, Franklin, Massachusetts; Harry Taft Hayward was cousin of William Howard Taft, 27th president of the US from 1909-1913. Mary Elizabeth married the Chilean born Henry Bernard Arthur de Bruyne and eventually came to live in England at Skyring House, Worthing from circa 1929 until 1939 when the house was commandeered by the British Army. After World War II they moved, Hurstpierpoint, Sussex. Thence by descent. The celebrated Cary family business of scientific instrument and globe makers was established by John Cary at Johnson's Court, Fleet Street, London in 1782 moving to a new address at 'Corner of Arundel Square', Strand the following year. He was primarily an engraver of maps, charts and globes who moved again in 1783 to 188 Strand. By 1791 he had entered into what appeared to be a relatively casual partnership with his brother, William; this partnership lasted until circa 1816 by which time William and John Cary had moved again to 181 Strand before finally settling in 86 St. James in 1820. The following year he was succeeded by his sons, John (II) and George Cary, who continued from the firm's 181 Strand address until 1851/2 when the business was acquired by Henry Gould. The terrestrial globe in the present lot is most often seen presented as a pocket globe within a ray-skin covered folding two-part case with celestial representations pasted to the inside surfaces. The celestial globe is much rarer as was generally only supplied as either part of a more extensive 'set' (with both globes in shagreen cases) or presented as a pair of miniature table globes as is the case with the current lot. An essentially identical terrestrial globe on stand was sold in these rooms 15th March 2006 (lot 1) for £3,800 hammer. Condition Report: Terrestrial- old unrestored surface with overall moderate browning to varnish, no visible cracks or bruising. Faults limited to a few light surface scuffs most noticeably to the Gulf of Mexico and to the South Pacific and overall age-related minor wear. The meridian ring is in fine original condition with mellow patination. Stand has overall slight to moderate varnish rubbing a wear to the horizon papers but with no losses.

A VICTORIAN TWELVE-INCH TERRESTRIAL FLOOR-STANDING LIBRARY GLOBEUNLABELLED BUT ALMOST CERTAINLY BY THOMAS MALBY AND SON, LONDON, THIRD QUARTER OF THE 19th CENTURYThe sphere applied with twelve hand-coloured engraved gores and polar calottes extensively annotated with nation states, extensively labelled principal cities, mountain ranges in pictorial relief, major rivers and other topographical features, the oceans labelled and annotated with islands and archipelagos, Antarctica incomplete and labelled THE SUPPOSED ANTARCTIC CONTINENT, with fully graduated Equatorial calibrated in minutes and conforming ecliptic, now with later carefully drawn lines possibly indicating lines of varying intensity of the Earth's magnetic field, with brass hour circles to both poles and pivoted through their axis within a brass meridian circle divided for degrees, set within a hand coloured paper horizon ring with compass points and degrees in both directions, Zodiac, calendar scales and wind directions, between March and April are explanatory notes and text Engraved by Cha's Malby, the stand with four down-curved quadrant supports cradling the globe over an acanthus carved baluster upright issuing three leaf-carved down-curved scroll supports terminating with brass castors, (the sphere with some historic damage and repair).86.5cm (34ins) high; 42.5cm (16.75ins) diameter overall. Thomas Malby and Company are recorded in Gloria, Clifton Directory of British Scientific Instrument Makers 1550-1851 as working 1843-50. First as Thomas Malby alone at 22 Houghton Street, Clare Market, London in 1839, then from 3 Houghton Street, Newcastle Street, Strand 1845-48 and finally at 37 Parker Street where the firm became Thomas Malby and Son in 1851. Thomas Malby is perhaps most remembered for producing an impressive 36 inch diameter terrestrial globe based on Addison's 1825 model. Latterly the firm of Thomas Malby and Son aligned themselves as geographical publisher for The Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge (S.D.U.K) and innovated the inclusion of 'magnetic lines of variation' within their terrestrial globes. By 1898 Thomas Malby and Son were trading as 'Globe and Map Sellers to the Admiralty' from 37 Tithe Queens Street Holborn, London. The Engraver's signature to the horizon paper relates to Thomas's brother, Charles Isaac Malby (1816 to post 1868), who worked as one of the principal engravers within the firm. The hand-drawn lines to the present globe would appear to represent variations in the Earth's magnetic field. This may be of some relevance with regards to Thomas Malby and Son's collaboration with The Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge and the development of the inclusion on 'magnetic lines of variation' within the annotations of their terrestrial globes.

He was in consequence present at the destruction of the French shipping in Aix Roads in April 1809 and had an opportunity of witnessing the capture of a large number of the enemy’s vessels, armed and otherwise. On leaving Emerald he was received on board the Tigre 74, Captain John Halliday, stationed in the Channel, where he remained until again placed in May 1813 under the order of Captain Maitland, at that time commanding the Goliath 74, on the coast of North America. In July 1814 he became Master’s Mate of the St Lawrence, bearing the broad pendant on Lake Ontario of Sir James Lucas Yeo, who nominated him 9 March 1815, Acting Lieutenant of the Princess Charlotte, Captain Richard O’Connor, an appointment which the Admiralty confirmed by commission dated 1 July in the same year. In October 1815, after having served for some time with Captain Peter Sampson Hambly in the Star sloop, he obtained command of the Confiance schooner on Lake Huron, and from October 1816 until July 1817 he was again employed on Lake Ontario, in the Netley 10, Captain Fraser Brace. His next appointment was 29 July 1822, to the Tees 26, Captains Thomas Coe and Fred Marryat, the former of whom on becoming Senior officer in India, appointed him to the command in 1824 of the Larne sloop at New South Wales. As he was at that time engaged in the Burmese war, he was not able to join her until 15 April 1825. Whilst serving in Larne he conveyed Lady Brisbane (wife of Commodore Sir James Brisbane) and her two daughters from Madras to Penang, and the Archdeacon Scott from Sydney to Van Diemen’s Land. Following this the ship visited New Zealand, Norfolk and Melville Islands, Batavia and Singapore. Being superseded on his return to Madras in the following July, Lieutenant Kingcome was next appointed to the Pandora sloop, under Captain William Clarke Jervoise. From that vessel he removed in 1826 to the Warspite 76, bearing the broad pendant of Sir James Brisbane. Attaining the rank of Commander on 8 January 1828, Captain Kingcome served in that capacity in the Coast Guard from 24 October 1835, until appointed on 18 June 1837 to the Wellesley 74, bearing the flag of Sir F. L. Maitland on the East India Station until 28 June 1838. On 23 October 1841 he was appointed to the Belleisle troop-ship, in which he sailed for China and arrived there in time to witness the closing operations on the Yangtse-Kiang. He paid off the Belleisle at the close of 1843, but rejoined her on 24 March 1846 in command. Commanded the Royal William in February 1854 and was present during the operations in the Baltic in 1854-55. He was promoted to Rear Admiral in 1857, Commander-in-Chief Pacific in October 1862, Vice-Admiral in 1864, retired 1866, and was advanced to Admiral in 1869. He was appointed K.C.B.
