Nicholas Culpeper, Culpeper’s English Physician and Complete Herbal, 1805Nicholas Culpeper, edited by Ebenezer Sibly Culpeper’s English Physician and Complete Herbal, 1805–1807, Quarto (2 volumes bound in 1) 21cm x 25cm, modern full leather binding, new end papers, hand coloured plates, light foxing and browning through outNicholas Culpeper (1616–1654) was an English botanist, herbalist, physician, and astrologer. Best known for his work The English Physician, later expanded as Culpeper’s Complete Herbal, he sought to make medical knowledge accessible to ordinary people by translating medical texts from Latin into English. Culpeper’s approach combined traditional herbal remedies with astrological medicine, reflecting the belief in a connection between celestial bodies and human health.Culpeper was a controversial figure in his time, challenging the practices of licensed physicians and advocating for affordable and natural remedies. His detailed herbal descriptions, paired with practical advice, made his work a household staple for centuries. Culpeper’s writings remain influential in the fields of herbalism and alternative medicine, and his name is synonymous with the democratization of medical knowledge.Book Description:This 1805–1807 edition of Culpeper’s English Physician and Complete Herbal, edited by Ebenezer Sibly, is an enhanced and expanded version of Culpeper’s original work. Sibly, a prominent astrologer and herbalist, updated Culpeper’s text with additional commentary and illustrations, preserving its relevance for early 19th-century readers. The book is richly detailed, featuring hundreds of herbs, their medicinal uses, and astrological correspondences.Bound in one quarto volume, this edition combines two volumes into a single, accessible reference for herbalists and medical practitioners of the time. It includes beautifully engraved plates depicting various plants, enhancing its value as both a practical guide and a collector's item. Culpeper’s focus on natural remedies and Sibly’s astrological insights make this work a fascinating blend of science, folklore, and early medical theory.

AN INDIAN PRESENTATION ‘RACKETS’ TROPHY UNMARKED The deep cup with a beaded border above and engraved inscription ‘D. C. LUSK ESQr BY ATHLETIC CLUB M.C.C.’ chased hunting depictions, with lions, elephants and hunters to the body, raised on three supports modelled as racket racquets, to a circular foot with a foliate border 18cm high, 7.9oz The game of rackets was surprisingly borne in London prisons, particularly, Fleet Prison. First established in the 18th century, it took another hundred years for the game to become respectable after its introduction to Harrow school in 1822. Charles Dickens does however mention in his novel The Pickwick Papers (1836–37) how the inmates played racket. The rules and etiquette can be found in the publication by Atkins, J. R. The Book of Racquets. A practical guide to the game and its history and to the different courts in which it is played, London: Frederick Warne, [1872] which details that the game itself is similar to other racket sports but is played in a 9.1m by 18.3m enclosed court, with a ceiling at least 9.1 m high., although it must be mentioned that in India, the roofs were removed. Games could be long as leaving the court would mean forfeiting the match. The engraving to the border of this cup mentions the Athletic Club M.C.C. which may relate to a cricket club.

Desirable manual gearbox carHardtop roof includedVanos system plus major service in 2020The BMW M3 is one of the most iconic sports cars of all time. The vehicle first entered production in 1986 and quickly became known for its high performance and excellent driving dynamics. The E46 generation of M3s was produced from 2000 to 2006 and was the third generation of the M3. The E46 generation was powered by the legendary S54 3.2 litre inline six-cylinder engine, which produced 343bhp and could boast a redline of 8000rpm. This power was sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transmission, or the optional SMG semi-automatic. The E46 M3 was also equipped with several performance features, including a limited-slip differential, larger brakes and improved suspension. The E46 M3 was praised for its handling and power, and it is still considered to be one of the best M3s ever made.First registered on 7th March 2003, the beautiful M3 convertible on offer here has led a pampered life having been extremely well cared for. Supplied with the desirable six-speed manual gearbox and 19” alloy wheels as well as a hardtop roof, the car also comes with the private plate M300 OOF.

A quality low mileage exampleSupplied with Jaguar Heritage CertificateThe first XJ was launched in 1968; a designation which has been used for successive Jaguar flagship models ever since and was also the last Jaguar saloon to have had the input of Sir William Lyons, the company's founder. In late 1979, the XJ was face-lifted and was known as the 'Series III'. Using the long-wheelbase version of the car, the XJ6 incorporated a subtle redesign by Pininfarina. Externally, the most obvious changes over the Series II were the thicker, rubber bumpers with decorative chrome only on the top edge, flush door handles for increased safety, a one-piece front door glass, a grille with only vertical vanes, reverse lights moved from the boot plinth to the larger rear light clusters and a revised roofline with narrower door frames and increased glass area. The introduction of the Series III model also saw the option of a sunroof and cruise control for the first time on any XJ models.This delightful 4.2 litre XJ6 was originally registered on 1st January 1983 and is presented in metallic silver with a full leather trim, both an optional extra when new. This cars specification from new is, unusually, nearer to Sovereign levels and coupled to the metallic paint and leather trim the extras included air conditioning, Pepperpot alloy wheels and an automatic gearbox, all of which were very costly options. The first owner of this Jaguar was B.D Cook & Partners of London and the quality of this car has to be seen to be appreciated, the engine bay presents very well, the interior is stunning and the coachwork and underside certainly show quality, thus viewing is highly recommended for any Jaguar enthusiast. Having covered just 33,200 miles from new, this car is offered with the full book pack including stamped service booklet, a Heritage Certificate and MoT test certificates dating back to 1990, these are coupled to invoices and a full years MoT test certificate. Owned by a fastidious enthusiast, this quintessentially British saloon is a delightful example offering comfort and prestige in equal quantities. Consigned by Stewart Banks. Guide price £9,000- £12,000 THIS IS A LOVELY LOW MILEAGE EXAMPLEA VERY HIGH SPECIFICATION XJ6 INCLUDING, LEATHER TRIM, ALLOYS AND AIR CONDITIONING
