A pair of early 20th century carved wood and painted hunting bookends attributed to Frank Whittington, of Forest toys, each made of walnut and applied with a huntsman on horseback accompanied by a fox hound, 20cm high. (2) Frank Whittington (1876-1973) established a toy making firm at the end of World War I in the New Forest, making carved animals and people, inspired by his surroundings and from regular trips to London Zoo and the Natural History Museum. Originally making the toys from home the demand became such that in 1922 he built a factory on the edge of the New Forest (Brockenhurst). The popularity of the figures rose when Queen Mary ordered two dozen Noah`s Arks after seeing them at the British Industries Fairs during the inter war period. For a similar pair of bookends see Janet Gent, 'The Forest Toys of Brockenhurst', p.13.
Broadhurst (Arthur Brooks). 'Three Months Tiger Shooting in the Deccan, Secunderabad, Liberty Hall, 1884', manuscript in brown and black ink on paper, [4] 1-139 [2] 140-144 pp. (pp.145-186 blank), 7 pen-and-ink sketches to half-title, title-page and text, 14 watercolours in text (1 full-page), a few manuscript corrections, first leaf (half-title) tipped to inside front cover with 4 strips of paper, soiled and slightly nicked along fore edge, inside front cover inscribed 'Arthur Brooks Broadhurst XIV Hussars', original silk-embroidered black felt binding, front cover titled 'Old Deccan Days' with elaborate monogram 'ABB', tiger vignette to rear cover, 8vo (17.7 x 11.5 cm) (Qty: 3)NOTESCf. Czech (Asia) p. 1. Original autograph manuscript of a rare account of Indian big-game hunting. The printed edition, issued privately at Secunderabad in 1884, is untraced in libraries, and two copies have appeared at auction, in 1974 and 2018; Czech cites the work from a reference in the Journal of the Bombay Natural History Society , but had not seen a copy. In each of these cases the author is listed simply as 'A. B. B'. The ownership inscription in our copy allows the author to be positively identified as Arthur Brooks Broadhurst (1860-1930) of the 14th (King's) Hussars. Broadhurst was born at Cheetham Hill, Lancashire and later lived at Penrith; his father was the industrialist Henry Tootal Broadhurst. He reached the rank of captain and was gazetted adjutant of auxiliary forces in 1888. For Broadhurst's personal fishing priest and binoculars (from the same source) see the following lot.
