THE RUTH ASPINALL ANTIQUITIES COLLECTION A finely carved Egyptian dark grey granodiorite figure of a man, mounted on a two-tiered alabaster base, height 52.5cm (60cm including base), depth 22.5cm, width of figure 11cm. These items come from the estate of the writer Ruth Aspinall. Ruth was the granddaughter of Sir John Ormerod Scarlett Thursby, Baronet. Thursby was a prominent Lancashire landowner, a Director of the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway, the Manchester and County Bank, and President of the Lancashire and Cheshire Coal Association (1916). He was High Sheriff of Lancashire (1905) and Deputy Lieutenant of the county.great passions were horseracing and chess, having been elected president of the British Chess Federation and president of the National Chess Congress.Aspinall estate contains many valuable items that had been inherited via the Thursby line. We draw your particular attention to Lot 2145, the Liverpool Spring Cup in our December Antiques sale, also Thursby's Trinity College chess medal, lot 2419.In our January Fine Art Sale, the most valuable paintings, lots 364 & 365 by Maxwell Ashby Armfield and Algernon Newton also came from the Aspinall estate. The base is inscribed in the style of early British Museum & Pitt Rivers exhibits with the following: “GRANITE PORTRAIT STATUE OF AN EGYPTIAN OFFICIAL CALLED NAS (?) - ARU - NEFERU. THE PLYNTH OF WHICH HAS BEEN INSCRIBED WITH A PRAYER TO OSIRIS FOR SEPULCHRAL OFFERINGS. FROM KURNA (THEBES) (XXII nd DYNASTY BC 1000)” The bare chested figure wears a striped shendyt-kilt or loin cloth and wide belt. He wears a ‘khat’ bag-wig headdress. His arms are held stiffly by his side and his left foot is striding forward. In his right hand he carries a towel. He carries another object in his clenched left hand, which due to damage, is unidentifiable. The figure has been damaged in places and repaired. Currently the base and feet of the figure are separated above the ankles and fit together with an internal metal rod. The stone is much darker in colour from his mid-shins downwards. The granodiorite back-pillar is inscribed with crudely carved hieroglyphs that read: ‘A royal offering of Osiris, Lord of Djedu: may he give an invocation-offering of bread, beer, beef, and fowl for the ka of Isi(?), born of Nefru.’ The finely carved head with headdress and large ears is in the style of the 12th dynasty or an imitation of that period. Note: This figure was studied at length in 2013 by curators at the British Museum, who were unable to confirm its authenticity. Although aspects of the piece are convincing such as the fine carving of the head and feet, at the time it was examined the figure had no provenance whatsoever and the BM felt that it had several anomalies which cast some doubts on it being what it purports to be. As such, we offer it with no assurances of antiquity. We have also recently learnt that Miss Aspinall originally left the figure to a leading Cambridge historian,but the gentleman fell out of favour and was removed from the will.
[LAUDER HARRY]: (1870-1950) Scottish Entertainer. A contorted hazlenut walking stick, 35" in length, apparently previously belonging to and used by Lauder, featuring an inset circular metal disc (possibly a 1922 shilling) to the handle, engraved with Lauder's name. Lightly varnished and with some minor age wear, VG Provenance: The walking stick is accompanied by various typed statements etc., which state that it was presented by Lauder to the American entertainer Danny Kaye in 1949. Apparently Kaye later gave the stick to British comedian Roy Hudd who in turn donated it to a variety auction. Subsequently purchased by an unknown bidder it was then presented to the Merseyside Artists Association, of which Ken Dodd was President, and displayed in their club in Liverpool along with other Music Hall artifacts and ephemera. When the club closed, many of the contents were sold at auction by Cato Crane of Liverpool which is where the current vendor acquired the walking stick in October 2004. Harry Lauder frequently performed in full Scottish regalia, including a kilt, sporran, Tam o'Shanter and a twisted walking stick. Indeed the twisted shrub contorted hazelnut (Corylus avellana contorta) whose parent is the Common Hazel,is also frequently referred to as 'Harry Lauder's Walking Stick'.
