1978 MGB GT Transmission: manualMileage:88334The MGB was launched in May 1962 to replace the MGA. Introduced as a four-cylinder roadster, a coupé with 2+2 seating was added in 1965, with production continuing until October 1980. The MGB GT sported a ground-breaking design by Pininfarina with the launch of its sporty 'hatchback' style. By combining the sloping rear window with the rear deck lid, the GT offered the utility of a hatchback whilst retaining the style and shape of a coupé. Acceleration of the GT was slightly slower than that of the Roadster due to its increased weight although top speed was improved by 5mph to 105mph due to better aerodynamics.Originally registered on 22nd March 1978 this one owner MGB GT is finished in Inca Yellow with grey striped interior. The history file dates back to 1993, these cars are not complicated mechanically and can be looked after by a competent enthusiast. The Owner's Club are also very supportive in their advice and parts supply. This manual gearbox with overdrive example runs well although the bodywork will require some time and investment, hardly surprising as it is 45 years old. Offered for sale without reserve, this MGB GT is supplied with a V5C registration certificate together with a collection of paperwork.

Lazaro Pardo de Lago (Cuzco, Viceroyalty of Peru, Active between 1630 - 1660)."Appearance of Christ and the Virgin Mary surrounded by angels to Saint Francis, in the Porziuncola Chapel of Santa Maria degli Angeli, in Assisi"Oil on copper. Handwritten in golden letters at the bottom margin: "Jubileo o Indulgencia de Porciuncula" (Jubilee or Indulgence of Porziuncola).29 x 22.5 cm.This painting is undoubtedly the work of Maestro Pardo de Lago. In our opinion, it can be compared to Lázaro Pardo's "Exaltation of the Cross," which is kept in the Pedro de Osma Museum in Cuzco, Peru. Additionally, the delicate features of the Virgin Mary's face and hands in this painting can also be compared to the painting of the "Immaculate Conception" also kept in the Pedro de Osma Museum.It is worth noting that themes dedicated to such an important episode in the life of Saint Francis were significant references for Pardo de Lago due to his strong connection with the Order.Another important noticeable element in this painting is the heraldic shield seen on the altar, which belongs to the Chaves family. Originating from Extremadura, with roots in Portugal and ancestral properties in Trujillo and Ciudad Rodrigo, this family also had a branch that moved to Peru. They proved their nobility in the Orders of Santiago, Calatrava, Alcántara, Charles III, and the Knights Hospitallar.Their coat of arms consists of a gules field with five gold keys arranged in a cross with their eyes looking downward. There is also a bordure (border) of gules with gold saltires alternating with the quinas of Portugal.This wonderful painting portrays the moment of the apparition when Saint Francis asked the Lord to grant an indulgence to all who visited the church dedicated to the Virgin Mary, under the title of Maria degli Angeli. The Lord accepted this request and instructed Saint Francis to go to Perugia to obtain the desired favour from Pope Honorius II. The Holy Father granted this indulgence in 1216.This indulgence is still granted today if, between August 1st and 2nd, one visits any chapel in a Franciscan convent and receives "the grace of Porziuncola, where complete forgiveness is obtained, and peace with God is established."Saint Francis of Assisi had a "great desire for the salvation of all souls," and that the faithful, with piety and devotion, would receive the indulgence by fulfilling the Church's provisions.As cited by the Real Academia de la Historia (Royal Academy of History), Lázaro Pardo de Lago was a: "Painter, gilder, and Creole or mestizo sculptor, who ranks among the first important masters who worked in the ancient Inca capital. His work was primarily linked to the Franciscan Order, and his more personal style appears to echo early Hispanic naturalism, blending the observation of immediate reality with refined formal stylisation. In 1630, Pardo painted, at the request of the Franciscan monastery of Cuzco, two large canvases depicting the Franciscan martyrs of Japan, which can be considered his masterpieces. Both scenes reveal a painter of exceptional quality, judging by the meticulous precision of his work, the luminous colour, and the strongly characterised heads of some martyrs. Deploying ingenious local expressive resources, Pardo depicted the Asian friars with features similar to those of mestizos or the mixed Hispanic and indigenous people of his time.Furthermore, Lázaro Pardo was one of the first Cuzco artists who used engravings by Peter Paul Rubens and his school as a starting point for his compositions. An example of this is the Assumption of the Virgin, executed in 1632 by order of the parish of San Cristóbal, based on a homonymous work engraved by Cornelis Galle, following the original design by Rubens.His workshop must have been one of the largest in Cuzco during his time."The coat of arms which appears on the altarpiece is the heraldic shield of the Chaves family.They came from the Extremadura province of Spain, and were originally from Portugal with ancestral properties in Trujillo and Ciudad Rodrigo. One branch settled in Peru. Their nobility was verified by the Orders of Santiago, Calatrava, Alcántara, Charles III, and the Knights Hospitallar.Arms: In the gules field are five golden keys placed saltirewise with their eyes downward; there is a bordure of gules, full of gold saltires alternating with the quincunx of Portugal.Reference bibliography:- Real Academia de la Historia.

1970 Volvo 1800E Coupé Transmission: manualMileage:15845With truly international credentials, this modern departure from Volvo's standard fare was planned in Sweden, built both in the UK and Sweden but designed by a Swede working at Carrozzeria Frua in Italy. Given the streamlined and elegant lines that adorn this model, it was produced both as a two-door coupé and latterly as a shooting brake. Initially marketed as a P1800S, the 'S' standing for Sweden, the power output was increased in 1970 with the addition of Bosch fuel injection hence P1800E, the 'E' standing for Einspritzung, the German for fuel injection allowing for a top speed of, incredibly for the time, 118mph.Supplied in Inca yellow with a contrasting black leatherette trim, the quality here is clear to see. Maintenance has been relentless over the years with very little reference to cost. As a result, the history file is extensive with numerous invoices, old MoT test certificates, original owners handbook and detailed information including engine-rebuilds, fuel systems overhaul, much additional mechanical work with, in 2016, all sills and outriggers replaced with a CD detailing works done including paint. With only 58 P1800E models registered with the DVLA (of which 32 are declared SORN), this is a rare car, even more so in this outstanding condition and they are quickly rising in popularity as a great 70's icon. There is little wonder why this was the motorcar of choice by the most elegant of detectives, Simon Templar himself, in the long-running TV show, The Saint.
1973 Triumph Stag Transmission: automaticMileage:75929Like the Triumph 2000 it was developed from, the Stag was styled by Italian maestro Giovanni Michelotti and featured the monocoque construction, independent suspension, disc/drum brakes, power-assisted rack and pinion steering and driveline of that saloon. The powerplant, though, was an all-new OHC, V8 of 3000cc capacity fed by a pair of Stromberg carburettors. The newcomer received a warm reception at the time of launch in 1970. However, once in the hands of customers there were quibbles over build quality and engine maladies. Although Triumph itself failed to fully resolve the issues, independent specialists have, and well sorted Stags are now the rival to the Mercedes-Benz SL they were always intended to be.Originally registered on 27th September 1973, this Triumph is finished in Inca Yellow with a contrasting dark brown interior with tan piping and a dark brown mohair soft top. Subject to a comprehensive restoration this Stag benefits from excellent paintwork and interior. The significant history folder confirms an expenditure of over £8,000 with the car having covered less than 100 miles since then. To be expected after such a level of spend, we are advised the car drives with no known faults, the automatic transmission operating as it should with smooth gearchanges. Also benefitting from power steering this Triumph Stag is a perfectly useable example. Supplied with a V5C registration document and a current MoT test certificate valid until 20th February 2024, this is a delightful example for a relatively modest outlay.

London: Longman, Hurst, Rees [&c.], 1823. 8vo, lithographed portrait frontispiece, 4pp. advertisements at beginning, engraved bookplate of Sir William Middleton Bart., of Shrubland Park, original boards, uncut, paper label to spineNote: Note: The third edition of John D. Hunter's Memoirs of a Captivity was published in 1824, so this 'new edition' would appear to be the second edition. This copy contains the rare lithographed frontispiece by C.R. Leslie printed by Hullmandel, which was not present in the copy examined for the Wagner-Camp entry, or in the Library of Congress copy. Wagner-Camp notes that "Hunter's autobiography includes his story of a journey across the mountains to the Pacific Ocean, `on the south side of the Chok-a-li-lum (Columbia River)'." Wagner doubted the veracity of this account, although he accepted Hunter's description of life among the Kansas and Osage Indians as authentic. He claimed to have been abducted at an early age by Kickapoo Indians, but escaped to white settlements to get an education. He visited London where he was lionised in 1823-34 and then returned to America where he was murdered by Cherokees.
