British Sports and Sportsmen, Sports & Sportsmen Ltd., London [1908-1933], limited edition 997/1000, folios, thirteen-volume set, comprising Shooting and Deerstalking, The Story of Shipping, Polo and Coaching, Cricket and Football, Breeding and Agriculture, Commerce and Industry, Racing and Coursing, Hunting, Past Sportsmen (in two volumes), Golf, Athletics and Winter Sports, Modern Commerce, Motoring and Aviation, Athletics, Tennis and Rackets, full morocco, each individual front board stamped and picked out in gilt with title and Ex-Libris Cyril Aubrey Nicholson, marbled endpapers, tooled throughout, gilt-edged text bloc. Provenance: Cyril Aubrey Nicholson (1887-1955) was a leading Sheffield stockbroker in the inter-war years. In 1934 Nicholson bought Firbeck Hall, nr. Rotherham and spent £80,000 transforming the hall into a luxurious country club, epitomising this louche age. Membership fees ranged from three to seven guineas; and the members themselves were equally far-ranging, from the Prince of Wales (the future Edward VIII) to the ill-fated Amy Johnson. The BBC even transmitted its weekly show 'Late Night Dance Music' with Henry, Carroll Gibbons and Charlie Kunz. As with most things the Second World War brought the end to this decadence: the country club hosted the Sheffield Royal Infirmary and the Royal Air Force.
