I am delighted with the pictures. They are remarkably good. The one of your right profile is an amazingly good photograph. There is something astonishingly alive about it as though you were just about to break into a smile... One day Sadie Mother & I went to Lakeside by train sailed up Windermere Lake took a bus to Coniston & train home. I was repeated sick throughout the journey. The sale on the... lake was pleasantly breezy & there are one or two fine views of Wansfell Helvellyn Kirkstone...” and his work “I thought that you would like to know that the LP record is out. ARGO RG 452. I share it with four others but they`ve allowed me nearly twenty minutes on the one side which is really very generous indeed. The rest of that side is taken up by Stevie Smith whom I can`t stand! But the other side contains 10 minutes of WR Rogers who comes over very strongly as a personality though I think the poems are rather gimmicky; 15 mins of Vernon Watkins a fine poet but rather too impersonally bardic as a reader to suit my taste” and on receiving his OBE “This week has been very busy. I did a radio interview on Monday at Whitehaven; worked all day on Wed. for Granada TV... there have been many callers and visitors since the local press has made a lot of fuss about the OBE - far more than they did about the Queen`s Medal though the Medal seems to me to be a more important award. Thanks for you [sic] mention of Financial Times. I went to the Bank and the Manager gave me his copy. As you say a terrible photo but a nice review. I haven`t seen any other... except the local papers which praise the book to the skies but don`t really know what they are talking about!” autograph manuscript copies of some of his poems including: “Rising Fire”; “Francesca”; “Ode (Written for the Wedding Day of the Beautiful Princess Marina & our beloved Prince George)”; “An Interior”; “Andahte (Bach`s D minor Concerto for 2 violins)” etc. folds some browned; signed presentation copies of Nicholson`s books including: Man and Literature 1944; The Fire of the Lord 1944; Five Rivers 1944; Rock Face 1948 all but the first first editions dust-jackets with tears; and 4 others 3 by or about Nicholson v.s. v.d. *** A detailed insight into the life and work of a twentieth century Lakeside poet.

Barbara Worth (1925-2010), ten sculptures. This collection of the work of the late Barbara Worth has been consigned for sale by her executors following her death in January 2010. It comprises 10 pieces in various styles from different stages of her career, supported by her own notes of exhibitions, lists of sculpture, photographs, press cuttings, letters and other information about her career. She was born as Barbara Wigglesworth in London in 1925 and never married, adopting the professional name of Barbara Worth. After the War she worked as a Youth Leader until taking up a place at London University and obtained a Diploma in Social Studies 1948-1952. She went to Canada 1953 -57 travelling and working in TV and Radio as well as in the Probation Service in Vancouver. She travelled extensively around the world before returning to the UK in 1958. Then she pursued her artistic training at the City & Guilds School (1958-9, Sculpture and Modelling); Hammersmith College of Art (1959-62, Sculpture and Modelling); Chelsea School of Art (1960-62, Drawing), before returning to Canada in 1962. More courses followed at the University of British Columbia (1963-4 Bachelor of Education) and Seattle University (1964, Summer School in Bronze Casting). She was sculpting and exhibiting in Canada in this period, mainly in Vancouver. She returned to London in 1964 where she remained for the rest of her life, combining increasing success with her sculpture, exhibiting at some well know galleries alongside Moore and Epstein, and taking a wide variety of jobs to support her artistic career through the 1960s - 1980s. In later life she turned increasingly to painting in watercolour and pastels, drawing inspiration from her passion for music which was reflected in her earlier abstract sculptures, and busts and drawings of well known orchestral conductors. There are a number of lists typed by the artist of her work and places exhibited, with photographs taken at the time of some of them. There is also some copy correspondence about specific commissions. The pieces offered here are: Chinese Man, on a wood base, 35cm high overall (1963?).
