David James - Waiting for the Tide, an oil on canvas, 40cm x 30cm, signed lower left hand corner, framed together with mixed oils and watercolours, one of The Tower of London (6 total)Location:

Two stained glass and leaded window panels, early 20th century, of Masonic interest, one dated 1912 and inscribed for George Traill, mounted in a window frame 77cm high, 57cm wide, the other with the Traill family motto 'Discriminae Salus', mounted in a window frame 109cm high, 57cm wide These panels appear to relate to George TRAILL (1874-1940) shipowner of Hampstead, Middlesex the son and heir of George TRAILL (1833-1887) merchant and shipowner by Julia ELWICK (1844-1928). In 1901 he married Clara Louise PARKER (born 1876).  In 1876 George TRAILL (sr) was initiated at the Grenadiers Lodge 55. In 1907 his son George TRIALL (jr) was initiated at the Lodge of Fortitude and Old Cumberland, Lodge 12 of St James, London. The motto DISCRIMINE SALUS is that used by TRIALL of Holland and earlier by the TRIALL family of Ballyhough House, Co.Antrim, whose earliest ancestry is found in Scotland. The modern adopted crest as per the second panel here is: a beacon tower issuing from waves of the sea proper. The original crest is derived from a 15th century shipwreck and rescue experienced by the family.Condition Report: Flaming Torch panel:As catalogued this is 109cm high, 57cm wide fitted in a window frame - the panel itself is approximately 102cm x 50cm.

THE STEEPLE KIRK, DUNDEE COMMUNION CUP, A CHARLES I SCOTTISH PROVINCIAL COMMUNION CUP ROBERT the tapered bowl engraved around upper rim 'EX DONO IACOBI SMITH MERCATORIS', raised on a tapered baluster knopped stem with foliate decoration to cushioned lower knop, on a stepped spreading base with flat chased foliate border(23cm high, diameter of bowl 12cm, diameter of foot 11.5cm, 19.3oz)Footnote: Provenance: Gifted by James Smith, Merchant, Dundee circa 1640 Kirk Session, Steeple Kirk Dundee Previously on loan MacManus Galleries & Museum, Dundee from 1974 Note: This cup forms part of the main and earliest section of the communion plate in the Steeple Kirk of Dundee, with the original gift, of three matching surviving, cups commissioned from Robert Gardyne II. All bearing the same inscription and decoration these are the three earliest surviving cups and are amongst the earliest surviving Communion plate in Dundee. One now resided within MacManus Galleries & Museums, its pair sold Lyon & Turnbull, Scottish Silver & Accessories, 14th August 2012, lot 398. It is unknown how large the original gift of cups was and seems highly likely that three would not have been the full complement; possibly other cups latterly being recycled and re-worked into the later surviving cups; or even destroyed in the turmoil Dundee has born witness to over the past four centuries. Dundee's Steeple Kirk is one of the most historic and important early buildings within the city. Built in the 12th century by the Earl of Huntington, brother of Scottish King William the Lion, it has withstood the numerous onslaughts of Dundee's tumultuous history to become the city's most important church and its oldest surviving building. The Earl of Huntington on returning from the Crusades reportedly made a vow that should God deliver his ship safely home he would build a Church in his honour. Upon his arrival he set about constructing the Steeple Kirk, selecting a spot out with the burgh boundaries. In 1303 the Kirk experienced the first of what would be many reincarnations after the forces of Edward I attacked the city and torched the church; work didn't begin on rebuilding the Kirk until the 15th century and was completed by the city council in 1462. Not only a building of importance in Dundee the north and south transepts were the largest of any ecclesiastical building in Europe, while the tower, which was completed in the 1480s is the only original part of the 15th century structure still standing today. This tower would witness the key role the Kirk was to play in the city's history, beginning in 1547 when it was captured by English forces and used as a stable by the soldiers. During this occupation it caught fire, and all but the tower and the choir was burnt to the ground. The council eventually built the west end of the choir and in it established the first Reformation Church of Dundee, further renovations on the destroyed south transept were carried out in the 16th century in order to house a second congregation. However, this would not be the last of the Kirk's troubles; the English General Monk, under orders from Cromwell, besieged the city in 1651, and the tower played an important role in the city's defences. Cannon ball marks can still be found on the building, a testament to its endurance, and the lock on the door leading from the hall to the stairs is the very same that held firm against Cromwell's onslaught. In 1759 the north transept was rebuilt, housing a third congregation, and in 1789 the nave was rebuilt allowing a fourth congregation under the Kirk's roof. Until 1841 all four congregations remained under one roof, each with their own ministers, but sharing the tower and bells. Even into the Victorian era problems beset the church and in 1841 another fire broke out, this time in the heating system, and once again the transepts were destroyed leaving only the nave and the tower. The Chapter House, adjoining the north wall of the east Church was also burnt down, along with the library of over 1800 volumes, including works in Latin and Greek, many dating from pre-reformation clergy. The east and south transepts were rebuilt in 1844 for their respective congregations, the north transept's congregation was re-housed. These three congregations remained in the one church until the 1980s when they finally amalgamated, giving the Kirk and its congregation its present-day appearance. This group is now split between McManus Museum & Galleries, the Steeple Kirk and private collections. The timing of these presentations of plate to the Kirk shows not only the variety of makers and styles in Dundee but the growth in wealth within the city which would have been far more prevalent in these ‘safer’ times than the turmoil the Kirk was so well exposed. This group was the most complete service of Dundee Communion plate and without doubt the most important grouping within the city, perhaps only outranked by a single object – the highly important – The Fithie Basin by Thomas Lindsay. Little is known about Robert Gardyne II but it is safe to say he forms part of the important Dundee, Perth and St Andrews family of makers who were responsible for some of the most important early Scottish plate made in the nations expanding Burgh's. At least three members of the family are recorded and possibly an earlier fourth member working within the trade. This would put the spread of the Gardyne's careers at around 1561 - 1708 with Robert Gardyne II falling within the middle of this period known to have been active around 1624 - 1656. It is assumed, as was the tradition within early Goldsmithing families, that Robert was apprenticed to his father Robert Gardyne I also of Dundee and is first mentioned a Freeman of the trade in 1624 within Dundee. There has often been confusion with the working dates of Gardyne and this has previously caused these cups being attributed as late as 1692. This however was more on the assumption they were presented by James Smith who was harbour master in that year. However, the donor appears far more likely to have been James Smith Merchant of Dundee, who died in 1640 and was interned in Dundee's historic graveyard, the Howff. Gifts of money within wealthy patrons' wills for the benefit of the church was not uncommon in Scotland; this date and the known working dates of Gardyne fit better than previous attributions. Also, close comparisons of marks on other dated early Gardyne plate confirms this theory.

Sir Hugh Casson (United Kingdom, 1910 - 1999) "Windsor Castle, London" Original Watercolor painting on Paper. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting is the original painting which was published on the Fleetwood First Day Cover for the Westminster Collector's Society Great Britian block of four stamps issued May 7, 1980. Windsor Castle -- located about twenty miles west of London on the River Thames -- is perhaps England's most famous castle, due primarily to the fact that it is the British royal family's chief residence, as well as a stopping point for many heads of state on official visits to Britain. Originally built around 1070 by William the Conqueror, the castle was a Norman motte and bailey with a timber stockade atop a dirt mound. The Round Tower and stone walls were added by Henry II a century later. The artwork depicts the Round Tower, viewed from across the River Thames. Since Henry II's additions, successive monarchs have remodeled and added to the castle. The decorations which adorn much of the interior are the result of George IV's massive redecorations in the 1820's. The Grand Reception Room and Waterloo Chamber are among the most lavish and magnificent rooms in the castle. Used for State receptions and other formal affairs, they -- like others of the State Apartments -- are open for public viewing during most of the year. In 1475, Edward IV began the construction of St. George's Chapel, one of the most magnificent of English churches. In this chapel are buried many monarchs, including Henry VIII, Charles I, and George VI. Today, Windsor Castle stands as an impressive and monumental reminder of the royal family's influence on British life throughout the centuries. In addition, it has remained a favorite residence among various monarchs, including Queen Victoria and the present Queen Elizabeth II. Image Size: 12.5 x 14.5 in. Overall Size: 14 x 16 in. Unframed.

The Indian Mutiny Medal for the Defence of Lucknow awarded to John Phillips, an Uncovenanted original defender who fought bravely at Germon's Post and was considered one of the bravest men in the defence, accompanying sallying parties on no fewer than 3 occasions and being described by Captain R. P. Anderson, 25th N.I. as a ‘brave old volunteer’ Indian Mutiny 1857-59, 1 clasp, Defence of Lucknow (John Phillips) one very minor edge bruise, otherwise dark toned, nearly extremely fine £2,000-£2,600 --- John Phillips was born in Calcutta around 1807, of British descent. Little is known of his life until 1 March 1834, when he married Sarah Christiana Joyce at Cawnpore, stating he was an Uncovenanted Clerk in the Jubbulpore Agency, Saugor. In 1840 he is shown as a clerk at the Delhi Magazine and later clerk in the Revenue department at Agra in 1843. These appointments indicate that he worked in the Non-Regulated States or Political Agencies under the control of a Resident, as against working in the direct Company governed provinces. On 9 November 1849, Phillips was appointed to the important position of Head Clerk of the Lucknow Residency, on a salary of 190 Rupees per month. The Head Clerk managed all the various agency departments, replacing the previous incumbent, Mr Hare, who had been terminated by Sleeman for embezzlement. Phillips worked directly under the orders of Captain Fletcher Hayes, head of the Military Secretary's Office. The demise of Mr Hare, who had been in the King's pay, gave Captain Hayes the opportunity to infiltrate the King's Palace via the newly arrived Head Clerk. Successive British Residents at Lucknow had become increasingly alarmed at the King of Oudh's profligate expenditure, chaotic administration and hedonistic lifestyle of the court, so Phillips was instructed by Captain Hayes to set about organising a loose network of informers who could pass back information and gossip from the various departments as to what was happening in the palace. He was assisted in this endeavour by having several relatives and in-laws within the various Residency departments. Phillips was assigned a most prestigious house set in a large compound to the South West of the Residency which became known during the siege as “Phillips’ House and Garden Battery”. It gave full view to the Judicial garrison (Germon’s Post) and was only silenced in early October after the arrival of the first relief force. After several warnings, Lord Dalhousie annexed the province on 7 February 1856, using an egregious political device called the Doctrine of Lapse which was instrumental in sowing the seeds for the disasters that would follow in 1857. On annexation Phillips became Head Clerk to the Military Secretary’s office in the Chief Commissioner's office. He continued working in the Chief Commission's Office until 1861, when he retired and returned to Calcutta. He died at Calcutta of ‘decline due to old age’ and was buried at the General Episcopal Cemetery, Lower Circular Road, Park Street, on 30 June 1888, aged 81 and 11 months. The grave is still extant and was erected by his daughter, Ellen, wife of Christopher Best who also served throughout the siege. John Phillips was aged 50 when the siege commenced and served throughout at Germon's Post, named after Captain R. C. German, 13th Bengal Native Infantry, the commanding officer. The Post was greatly exposed to fire from the tower of Johannes’ House, just outside the Residency perimeter, and from the gun and mortar batteries from Phillips’ House and Garden battery which opened up with such force and accuracy that the position became untenable, with the wives being evacuated to the cellars of the Tykhana where the wives of the officers were sheltering. Repeated attacks were made on Germon’s Post with the one on 20th July being the fiercest. The Uncovenanted distinguished themselves greatly, all being under arms from eight in the morning to eight at night. Copies of the original lists of those who served throughout the siege show that John Phillips, Christopher James Best (son in law) and William Charles Phillips (relative) all accompanied sallying parties out of the Residency on no fewer than 3 occasions. The Colonist newspaper of 6 April 1858, has an interesting article by one of the original defenders, probably the Uncovenanted Mr John Lawrence, whose notes of the siege were given to L. E. Rees and form the basis for his book Siege of Lucknow. Under the title “Siege and Bombardment of Lucknow” it makes for interesting reading revealing a litany of prejudices and some of the less savoury aspects of the siege: ‘They then took possession of all the highest houses adjacent to our garrison and loopholed the walls from whence they used to pick off our men unceasingly. It was scarcely safe to run from one house to another without making a good mark for their riflemen. They were so far safe that our cannon could not play on their buildings, our space being very limited, whilst they had every facility for bringing their guns to bear upon us; their guns and mortars were placed in the compounds of the houses of Messrs Jhn. Phillips and J. Johannes, the former an Uncovenanted servant and the head of the Chief Commissioner's Office and the other a merchant. One day in particular and on the consequent on the annoyances and losses that we had been subjected to, from the unerring shots of both matchlock and riflemen, from the above two houses, a storming party had been ordered to dislodge them from these strongholds, and Mr Phillips had been asked to point the way, through heaps of rubbish, to his residence. This old gentleman most willingly undertook to do, expecting neither reward or thanks for what he had already done, but satisfied he was doing his duty and a public benefit besides. He asked to be accompanied by one of his brother-in law, Mr Richard Joyce (a fine smart young stripling), who was also an Uncovenanted assistant in the Chief Commissioner's Office. They went with the storming party, who had been successful with but small loss and am most happy to add that Messrs P and J return unscathed... the Uncovenanted servants of Government have to express the hope that, should these lines meet the eyes of the Home authorities, that the families of those Uncovenanted servants who have fallen in action, and the widows who had conducted themselves properly, and the residue of the Uncovenanted, will in future be treated with the consideration they are entitled to, and that suitable provisions may be directed to be made and their grievances be redressed, for well may they be dubbed THE HEROES OF LUCKNOW.’ Sold with comprehensive research and maps including Napier's dispatch of the taking of Phillips' Battery.

Elizabeth II Tower of London 1078-1978 commemorative limited edition (8/90) hallmarked silver gilt platter, London 1978, maker St James House Company, diameter 20cm, weight 294g, in original box

J. Craig Thorpe (American, B. 1948) "Minnesota Locomotive" Signed lower right. Original Oil painting on Paper. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting is the original painting which appeared on the Fleetwood Legendary Locomotives of the 50 States Minnesota Commemorative Cover postmarked July 31, 1995. With the discovery of rich, red iron ore in Minnesota's Vermillion Range came the means to transport this precious commodity to Lake Superior for transshipment to America's steel-making centers. In 1882, Charlemagne Tower and his son Charlemagne Jr. began construction of the Duluth & Iron Range Railroad (D&IR) to make such shipments possible. The following year work began on a wooden dock at Two Harbors, the terminus of this route. The dock was completed almost simultaneously with the driving of the last spike on the D&IR's main line. On July 31, 1884, the Duluth & Iron Range Railroad's locomotive No. 8 hauled Minnesota's first trainload of iron ore in five 20-ton wooden cars measuring 28 feet in length each. The iron ore came from the Breitung Mine near Soudan, and was carried to the new dock at Two Harbors, where it was loaded onto the steamer Hecla and the schooner Ironton. The engineer on this historic trip was Thomas Owens, who eventually became superintendent and vice president of the D&IR. During the first mining season, the Duluth & Iron Range shipped more than 62,000 tons of iron ore. In 1901, the railroad was purchased by U.S. Steel Corporation, and in 1930, the D&IR merged with the Duluth, Missabe & Northern to become the Duluth, Missabe & Iron Range. Pictured here is the D&IR's famed No. 8 at the ore docks at Two Harbors. This 2-8-0 freight engine was built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1883. Image Size: 14 x 12 in. Overall Size: 18 x 15 in.
