Sport Esther Williams signed 10x8 black and white vintage photo. Esther Jane Williams (August 8, 1921 - June 6, 2013) was an American competitive swimmer and actress. She set regional and national records in her late teens on the Los Angeles Athletic Club swim team. Unable to compete in the 1940 Summer Olympics because of the outbreak of World War II, she joined Billy Rose's Aquacade, where she took on the role vacated by Eleanor Holm after the show's move from New York City to San Francisco. While in the city, she spent five months swimming alongside Olympic gold-medal winner and Tarzan star Johnny Weissmuller. Williams caught the attention of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer scouts at the Aquacade. After appearing in several small roles, and alongside Mickey Rooney in an Andy Hardy film and future five-time co-star Van Johnson in A Guy Named Joe, Williams made a series of films in the 1940s and early 1950s known as aquamusicals, which featured elaborate performances with synchronised swimming and diving.

§ Rose Dempster Bonnor (Welsh, 1875-1967) Portrait of Captain Charles Stafford Price-Davies, M. C. (1892-1959) of the King's Royal Rifle Corps, half-length in uniformsigned and dated 'Rose. Bonnor / 1920' (lower left)oil on canvas75 x 62cmProvenance:Presumably by descent from the sitter at Wood Hall, Hilgay, Norfolk after 1959Charles Stafford Price-Davies was the only son of Lieutenant-Colonel Stafford Davies Price-Davies (1866-1939) of Marrington Hall, Shropshire and Ethel Charlesworth (1872-1953). He was born in 1892 and educated at Eton and Sandhurst. During WWI, Price-Davies reached the rank of Captain and was awarded the Military Cross for his distinguished service. He commanded the 7th Royal Welsh Fusiliers from 1929 to 1937 and became Colonel in 1937. From 1939 to 1940 Price-Davies served as a Brigadier in the 115th Infantry Brigade. He held the court roles of Extra Equerry from 1935-42 and Comptroller to HRH the Duke of Connaught from 1940-2. He was awarded the medal of the Royal Victorian Order on 14th February 1942. According to the plaque affixed to the frame, this portrait was presented by the tenants of the sitter's Shropshire estates to him on his 21st birthday. As this portrait however is dated 1920, when the sitter would have been in his 28th year, this can perhaps be explained by the probability that he was at Sandhurst in 1913 and as war broke out the following July, he possibly went straight to the front and therefore could not sit to have his portrait taken until after the war had finished.Framed 92 x 79cmThe painting is executed in oil on a canvas support which has not been lined. The canvas tension is slack and there are minor undulations across the surface. The reverse of the painting is very dirty. The paint layers are in a good condition overall. There are localised areas of high gloss in the darkest paint passages where the artist has applied glaze layers to saturate the paint below. The varnish is even and semi-glossy. There is a layer of surface dirt present with white spots in the background.

"..Thank God I am here to write this, we all as usual turned out half an hour before day break, and when it got light the guns on the advanced field works thrown up by the turks began to fire, an aide de camp came gallloping in to us to say we were to advance, as the enemy were approaching in large numbers, so on we went near the field works, the enemy still continued to move on & the round shot came into us (spent balls) but still with sufficient force to do damage, one ball came rolling down the hill straight where I stood, I saw it was coming right to me, so put the spurs into my horse and only just in time, for it went close behind me and broke the legs of two horses, the next took a long hop and hit a man on the head and he never moved more... The enemy had advanced.. took one of the hills from the turks... after a time up comes their cavalry part of which made a dash where the 93rd flanked by turks were waiting to receive them, and as soon as they saw them coming away went the turks leaving the 93rd to stand the brunt of it... and sent the Huzzars to the right, at the same time another body of cavalry came at us, the Greys - 6th were ordered to meet them... however they soon sent them off with a flea in their ear & our horse artillery opening on them quickened their pace, we then advanced to the top of the hill and saw their army in the valley ... it was near 12 o clock and all remained at status quo for a couple of hours, when an order from Lord Raglan was brought to Lucan to attack the enemy which he did by sending the light cavalry into the greatest trap that ever was made, we and the Greys advanced first and then somebody said let the light cavalry go on, and on they went ... to take some guns in front, we followed at a trot, they went at a gallop and we saw nothing more of them until we saw them coming back by ones and twos some mounted but mostly dis-mounted, such a smash never was seen , they were murdered it seems they got & took - killed the gunners at the guns but could not keep them, the infantry played on them and when they looked round they found their way stopped by cossacks, then they cut their way through and about 40 came back in a body, the French Cavalry came down at this time and cleared the opposite hills of the guns but for us now we got about three parts of the way and the shot & shells & bullets came down on us like hail, every second I expected to get one, when luckily Scarlett gave the word Halt.
