A Fine Richard Glynne Silver and Gilt Brass Compass Dial, English, Circa 1710,signed R Glynne Fecit, the compass rose with thirty two compass points, 360 degree scale and centered by a finely engraved roundel of a dragons head and scrolling decoration, the folding silver gilt gnomon pierced and engraved with a demi-swan holding an arrow, the circumference engraved with an hour scale with Roman numerals reading to 5 minutes, the silver and red leather covered lid engraved on the inner surface with an Equation of Time, calendar scale, perpetual calendar and IIII-XII-VIII hour scale and locations Peking, Surrat, Caro, Rome, Paris, Dublin, Tenarif, Barbadoes, N.York, Mexico, 4/5in x 4in 4in (2cm x 10cm x 10cm) when closed Footnotes:Provenance:Bonhams, London, 21 April 2010, Lot 138.Private collection.Richard Glynne (1681-1755) was apprenticed to the well-known instrument-maker Henry Wynne in the Clockmakers' Company on 6 April 1696 and became free 29 September 1705. He would be Steward of the Company in 1725. He established himself 'next door to the Latin Coffee House in Ave Maria Lane, near St Paul's London' where the same year he was puffed as 'a very skilful and Accurate Mathematical Instrument-Maker' for 'Azimuth Compasses...as also other things' in the first English edition of Guillet's, The Gentleman's Dictionary... (London 1705). In 1705 also, he married Anne Lea, daughter of the map and globe retailers Philip (d. 1700) and Anne Lea (d. 1730) joining in partnership with the latter from at latest 1712. In December that year they issued proposals for the production of 36-inch diameter globes.By this time, Glynne was working from his partner's address at the Atlas and Hercules in Cheapside where he remained until c. 1718 when he is found opposite Salisbury Court, Fleet Street. In 1725 with Anne Lea he reissued Philip Lea's map of London, Westminster and Southwark but his main activity was 'all sorts of Mathematical Instruments either for Land or Sea, according to the newest improvements' as he stated in an advertisement in 1726. A range of mathematical instruments by him – sectors, drawing instruments, sun-dials, armillary spheres and armillary planetaria - are known by him, all of clean, uncluttered, appearance but finely and precisely engraved as in the major example of his work here offered.The influence of his master, Henry Wynne, can perhaps be seen on this dial in the inclusion of the series of places throughout the world, Wynne being perhaps the earliest London maker to deploy this refinement. Glynne, who formed five apprentices during his working career, ceased trading in 1730 when his stock was auctioned from the optician Edward I Scarlett's shop. He died in 1755.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
Registration No: 216 KO Chassis No: MHW6/18502 MOT: ExemptA mere 7,163 miles from new at the time of consignmentThree private owners from new with two from the same familyVery rare Traveller variant of the Farina OxfordSurely and unrepeatable opportunity with this originality, condition, provenance, and mileage?The Farina-designed Morris Oxfords were launched in 1959 and remained in production until 1971 and sought to continue the very successful and long-running Oxford name. The sixth Series offerings came in both Saloon and Traveller (Estate) forms from 1961, both using an uprated version of the B-Series BMC four-cylinder engine with a capacity of 1622cc. The basic body style was shared with the Austin Countryman but there were interior differences in dashboard and seating, as well as being built at different factories. Whilst many of the smaller Morris 1000 Travellers are still in circulation, the mid-range Oxford version, which was competing against the Singer Gazelle and Vauxhall Victor Estate cars of the time, is a far more rare find and a good one must surely be worth serious thought.First registered as ‘216 KO’, this amazing Morris was supplied new by Pheasant Garage Ltd of Erith, Kent to Mr A. R. Spilling Esq of St Paul's Cray (then classified as Kent but now part of Greater London) on 3rd January 1964. Maintained as a labour of love and very sparingly used, an accompanying MOT certificate from September 1973 reveals that the Oxford had covered just 4,150 miles up to that time. Taken off the road and put into storage the following year, the Traveller was inherited by Mr Spilling’s nephew during 1999. Sympathetically recommissioned and similarly only allowed to venture forth in good weather, ‘216 KO’ remained within Mr Spilling’s family until being acquired by the seller in 2004. Conscious of the Morris’s remarkable state of conservation not to mention the awards Mr Spilling’s nephew had collected, the vendor has done his best to preserve the Oxford’s remarkable originality, condition, and incredibly low mileage.Offered for sale now having covered just 7,163 miles from new, the Traveller displays numerous pleasing original features including the running-in instruction on the windscreen, the original crossply Dunlop tyres (albeit needing changing before any road use), the original Red leather interior (with the rear seats understood to have never been sat in), notably original paintwork in Dove Grey over Rose Taupe, and the registration number which has remained on the Morris from new. Accompanied by a history file that contains the RF60 buff logbook, original Passport to Service that displays the 1st service completed in May 1964 at 648 miles and corresponding ‘Shellubrication’ record, several original sales literature booklets and guides, several MOT certificates and some recent invoices, and a current V5C document. Recently fitted with a clutch slave cylinder in 2022, the Morris has also received a new battery in 2023. Traveller variants of the Farina Oxford are in short supply with very few surviving, so surely this example is unrepeatable with this originality, condition, provenance and mileage!

Registration No: FCH 880 Chassis No: B24WH MOT: ExemptSupplied new to Winston F. Martin Esq. of Healthguard Knitwear and reputedly later owned by the business tycoon Peter de SavaryPart of a private collection in recent years and employed for the occasional film and TV role including the Four Seasons mini-series (2008)Running and driving but in need of further mechanical recommissioning and a repaintWorthy of a return to its former gloryAn obvious evolution of its MKVI predecessor, the Bentley R-Type was introduced at the 1952 Earls Court Motor Show. Switching from riveted to welded frame construction at chassis B349TO, the newcomer featured independent coil-and-wishbone front suspension, a leaf-sprung 'live' rear axle and servo-assisted four-wheel drum brakes (hydraulic front / rod rear). Powered by a 'big bore' 4566cc straight-six inlet-over-exhaust engine allied to either four-speed manual or automatic transmission, the R-type was a surprisingly strong performer, able to reach more than 100mph. Praised by the contemporary motoring press for its high-speed handling and well-appointed interior, the model remained in production until 1955 by which time some 2,320 are thought to have been made (though, only 303 of those bore coachbuilt bodies). A decidedly rare motorcar, ‘FCH 880’ is understood to be one of just nine Bentley R-Type chassis to be clothed by Park Ward to its Design Number 552. A handsome four-seater Drophead Coupe with a power roof, well-resolved bustle boot and flowing wings, it was singularly expensive (especially when compared to a contemporary Aston Martin or Jaguar). Supplied new to Winston F. Martin Esq of the Healthguard Knitwear Company, the Bentley is thought to have spent time overseas before being re-registered with the DVLA during 1991. Further believed to have belonged to the noted collector and business tycoon Peter de Savary Esq, the R-Type entered the current family ownership some twenty-four years ago. Self-evidently the subject of much past restoration work, the Drophead Coupe helped earn its keep by appearing in the 2005 film ‘The Wedding Date’ and the 2008 TV mini-series ‘Four Seasons’. Showing just under 71,000 unwarranted miles to its odometer, ‘FCH 880’ appears to have covered less than 200 of those since last passing a MOT test. Laid-up in recent years, the Bentley has recently been recommissioned via the installation of a replacement starter motor. Although running and driving, it will doubtless require further mechanical work and servicing etc. Cosmetically, the Grey leather upholstery, wood veneers and soft-top are all in good order (albeit the power mechanism for the latter is not currently functioning). However, the plating has worn thin to the top of the radiator grille and the paintwork is heavily microblistered. A wonderful opportunity to acquire a scarce and very elegant coachbuilt R-Type for less than the price of a Special!
Registration No: SA55 HRO Chassis No: VF1CM0M0634145830 MOT: May 2024Just four former keepersOnly c.65,500 miles from newDesirable colour combinationOffered with the original stamped service bookIntroduced in September 2004, the first generation Mégane RS was available in three-door and five-door hatchback versions, both with the same engine, and was built at Renault's Dieppe factory by using body shells made in Palencia, Spain. The Mégane Renault Sport 225 used double-axis strut suspension with independent steering axis at the front. Powered by a four-cylinder, 2.0-litre turbocharged engine tuned to produce 225bhp, the car is capable of sprinting from 0-60mph in 6.3 seconds, before going on to a top speed of 147mph. Aimed at the potent SEAT Leon Cupra R and Honda's Civic Type R, it is distinguished by flared wheelarches, twin exhausts, and 18-inch alloy wheels.Manufactured in 2004, the 225 RenaultSport offered, was supplied new to the United Kingdom being first registered on the 6th of September that year. Finished in Blue with Renault F1 Team decals, the Mégane benefits from a Black interior upholstery. Having had just four former keepers, ‘SA55 HRO’ has covered a modest mileage of just some 65,500 miles from new. Last serviced by the owner last year, with very minimal miles covered since, it is offered with a history file that contains the book pack including the stamped service book, the file also has a collection of invoices, a selection of previous MOTs, a no advisory MOT until May this year, and a current V5C document.
