The Beatles: A Rare Concept Drawing By Heinz Edelmann For The Film Yellow Submarine,1967,pencil with some red ink, depicting several 'Pepperland' inhabitants and monsters, 11 1/2in x 16in (29.2cm x 40.6cm), unframedFootnotes:Provenance:Chief designer and art director Heinz Edelmann (1934-2009) created many of the central characters and the overall style of the film, released in 1968. According to Dr. Robert R. Hieronimus, Edelmann was ...much more than just the designer. His contributions shaped the plot and direction as well. He was absolutely the key to the success of the project. (From 'Inside The Yellow Submarine: The Making of The Beatles' Animated Classic', Krause Publications, 2002).Dick Sawyers (Sawers) is listed in the credits of the feature-length animation as designer, together with Jon Cramer. He and Cramer met Heinz Edelmann at the 'SheeKeys' restaurant (established in London in the 1890s) for an extended lunch to discuss the design and look of the film. It was at this meeting that Heniz created this pencil and ink drawing and gave it to Dick to serve as a style guide for some of the many subsidiary characters that were to appear alongside The Beatles and Blue Meanies. It took the work of many animators and illustrators - about 200 in all - to complete this ground-breaking task within the eleven-month schedule and it was from Edelmann's concepts that they took inspiration.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ARAR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Konon Molody, aka "Gordon Arnold Lonsdale" (1922-1970), Soviet intelligence officer during the Cold War and mastermind of the Portland Spy Ring. Archive of handwritten correspondence addressed to 'Molly' (Mrs C M M Baker) on sheets stamped 'Wormwood Scrubs' (prisoner number 148), 'Manchester Prison' (number 2502) and 'Winson Green' (number 5399). More than 30 letters, lengthy inscriptions, dated between 23 March 1961 and 29 December 1963. Together with a letter on headed paper (War Office), dated 6 April 1961, requesting that Mrs Baker help the authorities; a Visiting Order for Mrs Baker and M R Hurd; a letter on headed paper (Wormwood Scrubs), dated 16 June 1961, informing Mrs Baker that Lonsdale has been transferred to HMP Manchester; typewritten letters to 'Molly' (Mrs Baker) from Lonsdale following his release/exchange, May & June 1964, describing life at home with family; a typed agreement from The People newspaper offering to pay Lonsdale for various documents and his 'life story'; correspondence to and from Michael Hurd (solicitor).An example of the content: 'I must finish this letter before the lights go out & therefore have no time to think everything out before I begin...I will firstly reply to the part that hurt me. You ask: "are you a human with normal feelings?" etc. Yes, Molly, I am a human with normal feelings...But I am just like everybody else - there are people I like & people I don't like; things I like & other things that I hate...Where I differ from many people is in my attitude to money. I do realise money is necessary & important in everyday life. But it isn't the end all as far as I'm concerned. I hate the idea held by many that "everyone has his price", and no matter how hard I try I can't respect people who belong to that category...There is only one thing I'm afraid of and that is to lose my self-respect. In fact I think I was very fortunate that what has happened happened here. In other places, where I have spent many a year, the penalty is death.'The CIA and MI5 began to track the Portland Spy Ring in 1959. MI5 put Lonsdale under surveillance and learned that he was regularly visiting Peter and Helen Kroger (also spies) at their home in Ruislip. The Krogers, whose real names were Morris and Lona Cohen, were Americans spying for the Soviet Union, and had been living under deep cover as antiquarian booksellers in Middlesex. Lonsdale, who purportedly dealt in jukeboxes and bubble gum machines, was arrested on 7 January 1961. It materialised that microdots containing secret information had been smuggled between Britain and the Soviet Union within antiquarian books; these would have included secrets passed on by Harry Houghton and Ethel Gee (members of the spy ring). The Kroger house was full of spying equipment, including a radio transmitter-receiver for communicating with Moscow. Lonsdale was sentenced to 25 years in prison in March 1961. On 22 April 1964, he was exchanged for a British citizen held by the Russians as a spy.Provenance: By descent. Our vendor is handling the archive on behalf of his friend, the son of Mrs C Baker (recipient of the correspondence)
Lot 74
Political History. Manuscript. 19th century. Black ink on lined paper bound in black quarter-calf with marbled page edges. 35 numbered pages of writing, titled, 'a Political Journal kept by Sir Edward Knatchbull Bart. Beginning with the Dissolution of the Whig Govt. 1834'. Entries from 1834 to 1848. Some entries are brief, but many are detailed, for instance this one near the beginning of the journal: 'Sun. Jan 25. Went to church at St. Margarets. Paid three or four visits, and called on and saw the Duke of Wellington, with whom I had some interesting conversation about newspapers and the formation of the Govt. The Duke regretted that Sir R. Vyvyan was not in office. While I was at Apsley House, the servant came in and said the Duke of Cumberland was at the gate. The Duke of Wellington said "yes", and turning to me said, "I must". I did not remain two minutes, and upon going out of Apsley House gates, I ran directly against the Duke of Cumberland, who seeing me come from the House, held out his hand and was going to speak to me, but perceiving he did not know me, retreated. I do not know whether he is acquainted with me or not, as yet in my public life it has been my fortune never in society to have met, though I have very often been invited to meet him. All this I have written on this Sunday night Jany. 25th 1835, alone in London, having left my wife and all that is dear to me at Mersham Hotel, and yet there are those who believe that my position compensates for the loss of home and wife and children, who believe that the splendour of the world, and its imaginary greatness, are of more value than domestic happiness, such are not my feelings; I give up, for a time only I hope, all that I most love and value, from a sense of duty, and with the anxious desire of serving my country. The happiest moment of my life will be, if ever I live to see it, when I can with credit retire from public life, and repose in the bosom of my family. That this is true, thou o God, who knowest the very secrets of my heart, best can tell. Oh! of thy mercy, give me health, and strength, and confidence, and courage, and every needful ability to perform to the good of my country, and to the glory of thy name, the arduous duties I have undertaken. Upon thee do I rely, for Christ's sake, strengthen me, and support me in this my time of trial. I suppose henceforth to keep this journal, and if I do not make daily entries, at least to set down shortly, the principal events that befall me.' The final entry in the journal, dated 28 April 1848, is almost three pages in length, criticising Sir Robert Peel, 'I have no particular inducement to continue my entries...but events have occurred which lead me once more to write. I have endeavoured, often times in my own mind, to justify Sir R. Peel's character and conduct in the matter of the Repeal of the Corn Laws - but in vain. Either in 1842, and previously, he was acting a deceitful part, or his mind is of that unstable vacillating cast, as altogether to disqualify him for the position he held, as first minister of this country...The times in which we live are fearful indeed. The French Revolution, the state of the whole of Europe - the condition of England - its dense population, its large national debt, the want of sufficient employment for the people, the misery of a bad harvest, and of deficient crops - if such should be our fate, the dissatisfaction openly aroused, and secretly entertained, the loss of confidence in public men - and the want of a master mind to govern the state, these and such considerations, may make the boldest heart to tremble - but we ought all, and I hope we shall all, strive to do our duty, and may God in his mercy protect us. As to Ireland, I believe the maintenance of the Union will be difficult.' We are unable to ascertain if the manuscript is in the hand of Knatchbull himself, a secretary, or an unrelated person. Sir Edward Knatchbull, 9th Baronet (1781-1849) was a British Tory politician
