A Second War ‘Liverpool Blitz’ M.B.E. group of eight awarded to Chief Radio Officer B. J. Smith, Mercantile Marine, late Army Service Corps, for his gallantry on the occasion that the ammunition ship S.S. Malakand was bombed and exploded in Huskisson Dock, Liverpool, during the May Blitz, 4 May 1941 The Most Excellent Order of the British Empire, M.B.E. (Civil) Member’s 2nd type breast badge, silver; 1914-15 Star (S4-143301 Pte. B. J. Smith. A.S.C.); British War and Victory Medals (S4-143301 Pte. B. J. Smith. A.S.C.); 1939-45 Star; Atlantic Star; Burma Star; War Medal 1939-45; together with the recipient’s Brocklebank Medal, 32mm, silver and enamel, the obverse featuring the blue and white enamelled company flag, the reverse inscribed in raised letters, ‘Thos. & Jno. Brocklebank Ltd., Liverpool, S.S. “Malakand” 4th May 1941, Sunk by Enemy Action’, unmounted, generally very fine and better (8) £600-£800 --- M.B.E. London Gazette 9 January 1946. The original Recommendation, dated 24 February 1943, states: ‘For long and meritorious sea service in dangerous waters from September 1939 (still serving at sea). From 1914 to 1918 this officer served in the Army overseas and joined Brocklebanks’ Wireless Transmission Service in 1925 (This Company owns all the wireless gear on its ships and the Wireless Officers are direct employees of the company). Mr. Smith was the Chief Wireless Officer in our S.S. Makalla when she was bombed, set on fire, and sunk at sea in 1940, and was serving in a similar capacity in our S.S. Malakand, which was set upon fire and blew up in dock during the Liverpool blitz of 1941. From the nature of their service in the wireless room Radio Officers are either the objective of any first attack or are among the last to leave their ship when torpedoed &c. It is not surprising, therefore, to have to record that seven of our Radio Officers have already lost their lives at sea, and one has been badly wounded by shell fire. I have selected Mr. Smith as typical of the men of this particular rank serving in our fleet. When a ship has to be abandoned it is the special duty of one of the radio officers to ensure that the portable transmitting set goes into a boat and that he gets in with it. It is the proud boast of these men that so far they have never failed to do this.’ A further Recommendation, dated 30 July 1945, additionally states: ‘During this War this officer has served continuously in dangerous waters in the North and South Atlantic and Indian Oceans, and has at all times set a high example of Leadership and Devotion to Duty.’ Bernard John Smith was born in York in 1897 and served with the Army Service Corps during the Great War in the Balkan theatre of War from 18 November 1915. Discharged Class ‘Z’ Reserve on 8 September 1919, he joined the Brocklebank Shipping Line, Liverpool, as a wireless operator in 1925, and served with them continuously for the next 25 years. His first ship was the S.S. Matheran, and he then served in the S.S. Mahratta, and the S.S. Maidan. Following the outbreak of the Second World War he served in the S.S. Makalla- whilst in convoy this vessel came under attack for German He.115 bombers off the Pentland Firth, and was set on fire, eventually sinking, with the crew being successfully evacuated. Smith’s next appointment was to the S.S. Malakand. On 3 May 1941, whilst berthed in the Huskisson Dock, Liverpool, and carrying 1,500 tons of high explosives, the city and docks suffered a heavy German air raid, party of the city’s ‘May Blitz’. Flares and incendiaries showered the ship, causing a huge fire which ignited the ammunition. The fire services could not contain the fire and on 4 May 1941, a few hours after the raid had ended, Malakand exploded, destroying the entire Huskisson No. 2 dock and killing four people. It took seventy-four hours for the fire to burn out. For his gallantry that night Smith was recommended for the M.B.E., which, having been re-recommended on a further three occasions, he eventually received in 1946. For the rest of the Second World War Smith served in the S.S. Fort Churchill. He retired in the 1950s, and died in York on 7 June 1960. During the Second World War, Brocklebanks lost 18 ships and a further 5 were damaged. A total of 255 officers and crew lost their lives. The company produced a silver medal to the crew of those 18 ships lost by enemy action, and a bronze medal to the crew of those 5 ships damaged by enemy action but brought to port. Approximately 1,750 medals were produced. Indian crew members frequently wore these medals on a cord around their necks, and when some Lascars did so at a Liverpool dock parade they attracted the King’s attention, and received his compliments. Sold with copied research including a photographic image of the recipient.

A well-documented Second War ‘Arnhem’ ‘Immediate’ D.F.C. group of seven awarded to Battle of Britain Hurricane pilot Squadron Leader B. P. Legge, Royal Air Force, who served with 601 Squadron during the Battle of Britain, and saw further service in North Africa; as a Dakota pilot on D-Day; and at Arnhem during Operation Market Garden, where his was Dakota was badly hit and both he and his second pilot were severely wounded: despite the loss of blood he remained at the controls and effected a safe landing, for which gallantry he was awarded an Immediate D.F.C. Distinguished Flying Cross, G.VI.R., reverse officially dated 1945, on original mounting pin; 1939-45 Star, 1 clasp, Battle of Britain; Air Crew Europe Star, 1 clasp, France and Germany; Africa Star, 1 clasp, North Africa 1942-43; Italy Star; Defence and War Medals 1939-45, generally good very fine and better (7) £5,000-£7,000 --- D.F.C. London Gazette 2 February 1945: ‘This officer has completed much operational flying and throughout has displayed efficiency and zeal of a high standard. One evening in September, 1944, he piloted an aircraft on a mission involving the dropping of supplies to our ground forces near Arnhem. When approaching the target, the aircraft came under anti-aircraft fire and was hit in several places. Nevertheless, Flight Lieutenant Legge went on to the dropping zone and released his containers with precision. Shortly afterwards the aircraft was again hit Flight Lieutenant Legge was severely wounded in the leg; his co-pilot was also wounded. Undaunted, Flight Lieutenant Legge remained at the controls. Although suffering severe pain and becoming weak through loss of blood he flew the aircraft to base where he effected a safe landing in difficult conditions. This officer displayed great courage and fortitude and was undoubtedly responsible for the safe return of the aircraft and its crew.’ The original Recommendation, dated 26 September 1944, gives some additional information: ‘On the evening of 24 September, Flight Lieutenant Legge was briefed to drop re-supply panniers on a D.Z. to the west of Arnhem. A considerable amount of flak was encountered over the majority of the route and the aircraft was hit in several places. In face of concentrated machine gun and 20mm fire, Flight Lieutenant Legge pressed on over the Drop Zone and carried out an accurate drop. Just after turning away the aircraft was again hit, wounding the second pilot in both legs, and seriously wounding Flight Lieutenant Legge in the right leg, damaging the muscles and denying him the use of his leg. He lost a lot of blood on the route home, and arrived over base in a very weak condition. In spite of a slippery runway and a high cross wind, Flight Lieutenant Legge carried out a successful night landing. The courage and determination of this officer in the face of heavy opposition, is worthy of the highest praise. Remarks by Air Commodore Darvall, Officer Commanding HQ 46 Group: Flight Lieutenant Legge saved his aircraft and crew by a splendid display of courage and airmanship. Strongly recommended for an immediate award of the D.F.C.’ Brian Pauncefoote Legge was born at Snaresbrook, Essex on 5 May 1920, and spent his early years in China, before being educated at Exeter School. He joined the Royal Air Force on 6 February 1939 and was commissioned as an acting pilot officer on 15 April 1939. Following the outbreak of the Second World War Legge received his first operational posting, to 73 Squadron, on 12 May 1940, and his first flight over foreign soil took place the following day, in Hurricane L1826, when he was detailed for a Sector Recce. He notes in his log-book, ‘Did first aerobatics in Hurricane’. His next flight was on 15 May when he was one of six Hurricanes from ‘A Flight’ to take off after lunch to intercept enemy aircraft over Rheims. Legge records in his log, ‘Interception of 20-30 enemy bombers, Rheims - Chased a He 111 but was unable to catch it. Flak over Germany, fight with a Hurricane ensued.’ At the beginning of June, Legge had several attacks of malaria, resulting from his early days in China, and on 10 June he was declared unfit for further flying with the squadron and he was sent back to the UK immediately. It would appear that his days off sick combined with his strong personality did not endear him to the CO and other officers of 73 Squadron (who were a tight knitted bunch having been through rough times in France). Battle of Britain Legge was returned to No. 1 RAF Depot at Uxbridge where he stayed until July, and after a posting to an Officer Training Unit finally rejoined a Fighter Squadron when he was posted to 601 Squadron at Exeter on 13 October 1940. Between 18 and 27 October he was engaged on practice flights/formations, and cross country flights along with sea firing exercises, but finally, on 28 October, he did his first ‘operational sortie’ which would earn him the Battle of Britain clasp. He completed two further sorties on the 29 October when Portsmouth was attacked during the morning, and on 30 October he did another sortie with no contacts, noting in his log on each occasion the single word, ‘Flap’. North Africa At the start of November Legge was posted back to his old squadron, 73 at Debden, who had just been ordered to join the Desert Air Force, and by January 1941 the squadron was up and running, and having taken over from 112 Squadron they were soon on local defensive patrols over Tobruk. As he wrote in a letter to his mother: ‘I can’t tell you very much about the journey out here, except it was the most interesting one I have ever made. A forced landing in the bush followed, but I managed to make a big city for Christmas. The sand gets rather boring after a while; we have it for lunch, tea and supper, sleep in it, breathe and drink it, not to mention the sandstorms, which rip up our tents. Owing to the censorship regulations I can’t tell you about our activities out here, but the last week has been very exciting.’ On 21 January, during a dawn patrol, and with several Fiat G50s appearing over Tobruk, the CO led an attack on them with Legge, Wareham, Wainwright and Griffith, sharing in the destruction of one and Legge damaging another. He was subsequently hit by ground fire resulting in his engine bursting into flames. He made a forced landing at El Adem dousing the fire with sand and water and was rescued by the CO of 113 Squadron in a Blenheim. On returning to base Legge heard on Italian radio that the Italian fighters had ‘encountered five Hurricanes that morning and had shot one down in flames, and the other four had fled.’ Legge himself noted in his log book: ‘Attack on Tobruk begins, attacked several G50s, chased two for ten miles at ‘0 feet’, used up all my ammunition but only damaged one. Was shot in glycol tank by ground fire, when returning, and force-landed at El Adem. P/O Wainwright shot down in flames, Sgt Murray got a G50. (Sgt Murray later recalled ‘I was convinced that we were caught in a trap’). Benghasi fell on 6 February and by the following day the Allied attack captured Tobruk, the retreating Italians were caught at Beda Fomm in a battle that saw their army destroyed, 130,000 prisoners taken along with 850 big guns and 400 tanks, the Italian Air Force being virtually wiped out. Legge flew on the 1st in Hurricane TP-L on a ground strafing sortie in the morning led by Beytagh where they destroyed several Lorries on the road near Apollonia. He notes in his log book: ‘Set alight a (Caproni) Ghiblis which Sgt Murray had shot down, destroyed 2 motorbikes and drivers and one petrol lorry in flames. Ran into heavy A/A on way back.&rs...

RAY MAN: (1890-1976)American visual artist, a significant contributor to the Dada and Surrealist movements and a renowned pioneering fashion and portrait photographer. T.L.S., Man Ray, one page, 4to, Paris, 31st January 1962, to Jean. Ray writes in a business-like manner regarding the sales of his works, apologising for writing in English ('in which language I can express myself more shortly') and referring to an agreement he had entered into with his correspondent in 1959, which had led him 'to believe that I would be freed from all matters of keeping accounts and from endless discussions', continuing to rectify several points raised in his correspondent's recent letters, in part, 'Our contract gives you control of world sales, and the exhibitions in New York were arranged with the approval of the Galerie Rive Droite….To date no accounts have been given me of transactions….Among other activities in New York I was responsible for selling a watercolour for $400, as well as some drawings at a good price….In your second letter you say you haven't taken paintings to cover the contract. I have receipts for all the works you have taken which exceed what you have paid me. You admit you haven't paid me the four millions due in 1961. The contract stipulates three millions to be paid over the period…..I cannot go into details here, since you promised to keep accounts for me. Anyhow, your small investment in me has paid off already, I'm sure. And will continue to pay. I have done much more than you in the way of publicity: interviews, radio and television in France and abroad, as well as participating in non-commercial official exhibitions. In 59, before our contract I consigned only the Orateur to Loeb, asking him only 300.00 francs for it. He did not sell it because he probably asked a couple of thousand dollars for it, and I took it back. I sold it to you for 200.00 frs. as an object, although I have always considered it as important as any painting. But I wasn't going to argue with you - I counted on the future. So, the contract is void as from today.' A couple of very light, extremely minor corner creases, VG

Mountbatten further writes 'I see from your letter that you wrote the English version of the pamphlet you enclosed. I am astonished to note that no effort has been made to translate your English into French, for the French version appears to be entirely different in layout and phrases. I also regret to see that no attempt has been made to produce the diagrammatic figures with French titling in the French text. In fact anybody who understands both languages would be thoroughly lost trying to compare one version with the other. I wonder what the explanation is.' Accompanied by the original envelope.
