Lot 363
An early 20th Century Negretti & Zambra forecasting aneroid barometer with calibrating dial, Patent No. 6276 1915, and the forecasting aneroid barometer in brass drum case with dial No'd. 9871 CONDITION REPORTS Overall with wear and scuffs and dirt. Box with quite a lot of wear and scuffs and some tears, the covering to the box is very thin and is very brittle, particularly to the underside where it has lifted away from the box and there are losses and tears. When tried on 27.3.14 with the pin to the the edge of the dial lined up with the main hand, and the barometer raised in height, the long hand did move anticlockwise and then returned towards the spike mark when the barometer was lowered again, however, please note that we can make no guarantees as to whether or not the item is in working order. Dial of barometer appears to be in good order with no chips or cracks. The brass dial in the box has an easel back.

Lot 19
A large 19th century two handled mug, inscribed to the base in gilt "Sir Philip Musgrave", the body painted with an ancestral home and with coat of arms verso. Height 5.25 ins. CONDITION REPORT: Visually this piece looks to be in good order. However closer inspection suggests old extensive professional restoration. The inside has clearly been over sprayed in places and there is evidence of marks indicating restoration. Our feeling is that the piece has been broken into several pieces and restored probably some 20 years ago. The gilt rim has clearly been repainted. The restoration is not significantly discoloured and the item, as stated, looks good from a visual point of view.
Lot 175
A Continental porcelain inkwell stand, probably French and depicting Chinese sportsmen and acrobats. Width 6 ins. CONDITION REPORT: There is no makers mark as far as we can see. The item is in generally good condition. The two detachable pots appear to be in good order. The central carrying handle is slightly off centre and looks to have been repainted as does the whole of the top of the piece. We cannot see that this is covering any restoration, however the whole of the top inner section has certainly been painted over as has the outside edge. Whilst it doesn't appear that this is covering restoration it would probably be safe to presume that it is particularly if you are buying blind.
Lot 329

The item has clearly been dropped and the narrow part of the base is buckled and twisted. The silver is reasonably heavy gauge around this point however a silversmith would need to repair this buckle.
Lot 341
A George IV wine funnel, in two sections both stamped with the makers mark for Pierce & Burroughs, London 1827. Length 6.25 ins (see illustration). CONDITION REPORT: The wine funnel is generally in reasonable condition. There are no major areas of problematical damage. The proud lip to the underside of the sieve is misshapen but this is not an issue and not visible when the item is together. The base has one or two small dents but nothing of any significance and the spout is in good order. The hallmarks are slightly rubbed but visible and easy to read. The overall weight of the piece is 160 grams.
Lot 1080

Width 35 ins (see illustration). CONDITION REPORT: This chest of drawers is in extremely good order. It could be used or resold in its current condition without the need for any repair or restoration. The drawer fronts are all in good order. The bottom drawer has evidence of three old veneer cracks and possible replacement of sections of cockbeading and two small veneer repairs. These have been done perfectly well and do not detract from the appearance of the piece. Other than minor scuffs and scratches the item is really in extremely good order.

Nelson Mandela No Easy Walk To Freedom - SCARCE 1ST. EDITION OF MANDELA`S FIRST BOOK 8vo. A superior copy of this book, very scarce in the hardcover edition. It comprises a collection of his leading speeches and articles between 1953 and 1964 and includes accounts and transcripts of the three major trails in which Mandela was the chief accused, including notably his famous closing speech in the Rivonia trial. It was published while Mandela was incarcerated in Robben Island and for obvious reasons was banned in South Africa. The book was edited by Ruth First with a foreword by Oliver Tambo. A softback edition of this book was published simultaneously and is also scarce but appears occasionally on the market. There was also a US. edition which is somewhat more common. This copy would appear to be unread in about fine condition. The only flaw is an 8mm. circular orange mark on the front board (see picture) of uncertain origin. Internally it is clean and unmarked. The scarce dw. is in very good condition. It is price-clipped and has a 2cm. closed tear at the lower edge of the front panel and some light edge wear, but is otherwise complete and attractive. An essential item for all Mandela collections. Very Good Plus London Heinemann 1965
