†Rick Griffin : Grateful Dead in Egypt, pencil on tracing paper, framed, overall 57 x 72 cm. Extra Information - When Rick produced this drawing he was working on illustrations for the 'Gospel Of John' and other art with Biblical themes. He was also reading about Egypt and, coincidentally, the landmark traveling exhibition, 'Treasures Of Tutankhamen', was mounted at the Los Angeles County Museum, further stirring Rick’s interest in Egyptian art. In September 1978 the Grateful Dead played a number of concerts at the Sound & Light Theatre at the foot of the Great Pyramid and next to the Sphinx in Cairo.Rick took this opportunity to create a work of art which reflected his interest in ancient Egyptian themes and which could be combined with the then current music happenings of the Dead. The image is based upon an excavation in Egypt and the figures in the foreground were derived from photographs taken in the 1920s when archaeologist Howard Carter discovered Tutenkamen's tomb.The 'Relix' in the centre refers to the title of the popular Deadhead magazine. According to Ida Griffin this art was created for the cover of the magazine, to commemorate the three nights that the Grateful Dead played in Egypt. Playing to a largely local audience who had little or no idea who the band was, and after various technical problems, the third night saw everything come good and the band performed under the eclipse of a full moon, which made for a very memorable event. Bill Graham recalled that it was '...one of the great experiences of my life - dancing to 'Sugar Magnolia' in front of the Great Pyramid.' Please note that VAT is payable on top of the hammer price at 20% in addition to standard buyers' premium inc. VAT for this lot. Please note this has been framed back to front!

Lot 1147
A rare and fine miniature steelyard by John Joseph Merlin (1735-1803), c.1780, with a graduated beam with fine adjustment calibrated counterpoise, with silver pan within an original shaped green-stained shagreen case with silver metal mounts, beam 7.1cm long John Joseph Merlin was born in Liège in 1735 and came to England in 1760. By 1793, he is described as a 'goldsmith, jeweller, watchmaker, harpsichord and musical instrument maker and general mechanic'. Somewhat of an eccentric, he went on to achieve celebrity at a function by playing a violin of his own make, on roller skates, where he impaled himself against a mirror valued at £500, smashing it to smithereens along with the instrument, and wounding himself most severely. Also known for producing numerous novelties, mechanical dolls and entertaining items, an invalid chair, a personal weighing machine, a roasting jack, and a watch for John Constable, he is also mentioned in Dr Johnson's diary for 28 March 1782: 'Merlin's steelyard given me'. Merlin's silver swan automaton is in Bowes Museum and his portrait, painted by Gainsborough in 1781, hangs In Kenwood House, depicting him with coin steelyard in hand. Merlin died in 1803 and most of the stock from 'Merlin's Mechanical Museum' was sold to Thomas Weeks for his newly opened museum in Tichborne St., London. See 'John Joseph Merlin, The Ingenious Mechanick', published by Greater London Council, 1985.
