It is now reported that Lockwood and Brainard of the U. States Expd under Greeley succeeded in getting 3 ½ miles farther North – but no ship has beaten the 'Alert'...'), Admiral Robert Patton, Charles Spurgeon, William Gull (signed autograph envelope fragment); the second album containing mainly theatre and music hall stars (Dan Leno, Charles Reade, Nellie Melba, Ellen Terry, signed photographs of Percy Grainger and Gertie Millar amongst others), also Henry Morton Stanley (autograph letter accepting an invitation), George Meredith, many cut signatures including the Grossmiths, Charles Parry, Clara Schumann, Robert Peel, George III, Earl Nelson, actors, nobility, politicians etc.; third album containing c.280 signed free fronts from politicians and the nobility, mostly 1820's and 30's; with a folder of c.20 loose autograph letters including Henry Irving (letter of thanks in the hand of his secretary Bram Stoker), Arthur Sullivan, Charles Spurgeon (6), the Princess Royal, Jan Smuts (letter of thanks, 1942), two from General Wavell, one from Pacific Command, Java, 1942 ('...I have a difficult job here and some dangerous and anxious times ahead, but we shall eventually check and then drive back the Japs...'), c.150 leaves in all, half roan, folio and oblong folio, the second with visiting card of Miss Buckston Browne affixed to inside front board, predominantly nineteenth century (4)Footnotes:This collection comes from the descendants of the daughter of Sir George Buckston Browne (1850-1945). Coming from a long line of medical men, Buckston Browne enjoyed much success in his early career and in 1874 became private assistant to Sir Henry Thompson, the leading urologist of his day, specialising in prostate problems and bladder stones. Both men were held in high esteem by their patients and colleagues (Browne is the dedicatee of George Meredith's Lord Ormont and his Aminta), and moved in the highest social circles, treating many illustrious names as demonstrated by the letters in this collection. Buckston Browne was with Thompson for fourteen years before starting his own consultancy, becoming a much respected, and wealthy, connoisseur and benefactor of the arts. In 1927 he purchased Charles Darwin's Down House, thus preserving it for posterity (see livesonline.rcseng.ac.uk website). Sir Henry Thompson (1820-1904), his mentor, was the 'archetypal Victorian polymath', and several of our letters refer to his celebrated 'Octaves', dinners comprising eight dishes, beginning at eight o'clock, for eight guests (see Robert Browning's letter above): 'Renowned for their cuisine and conversation, they were attended by royalty, colleagues, famous men (no women) from the arts, literature, the professions and politics, and foreign visitors' (Alex Paton, ODNB).This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: •• Zero rated for VAT, no VAT will be added to the Hammer Price or the Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
