1952 JENSEN INTERCEPTOR CABRIOLETRegistration Number: USK 657Chassis Number: INT 18344YRecorded Mileage: c. 23,900 milesExceptionally rare model with 8 known survivorsVery original example with low recorded mileageThe first generation of the 'Interceptor' was launched in 1949 at the Earl's Court Motor Show in London, with the saloon version entering production two years later. According to The Autocar, the new Interceptor, 'possesses that big-engined, high-gear charm of the past, but offers it in a modern guise.'As with other specialist low volume luxury cars of the early post-war years, the new Jensen adopted a hand-built aluminium alloy body formed over a steel chassis with an ash frame. Longtime marque stylist Eric Neale penned the model, in closed coupe, sedanca and full cabriolet body styles. The chassis was an extended Austin A70 unit, the six-cylinder straight six engine and drivetrain derived from the Austin A125 Sheerline limousine. Suspension consisted of an independent coil-sprung front end with a live rear axle, while Girling hydraulic brakes were found at each corner.The aluminium-bodied Interceptor joined the select band of genuine four-seaters capable of 100mph, keeping up with the likes of the Bentley R Type, Bristol 401 and Jaguar MK VII. The ride was comfortable and smooth, with more refinement up to higher speeds compared to its competitors, but just as much luxury. Bearing in mind the nearest Bristol and Bentleys were at least if not more than three times the Interceptor's price tag, the Jensen offered a top class driving experience whilst delivering exceptional value. Production continued through 1957. Jensen of course later reusing the name for a second-generation Interceptor which debuted in 1966. Interest in these early Jensen models has picked up in recent years, as enthusiasts have woken up to the hand-built qualities of these exceptionally rare early Grand Tourers.One of just 32 Interceptor cabriolets produced (and just 8 surviving), chassis 18344 is a rare and well travelled survivor. This super original Interceptor was was sold on 10th September 1952 via the specialist agent Brooklands Motors on London's Bond Street, and assigned with the registration mark LUF 832. Finished in grey, it was purchased by a Mr. Dunmore of Norwich who kept the Jensen in his possession for a further 10 years. The next owner, a Mr. Gibson of Great Yarmouth, kept the car for a further 6 years, during which time changing the body colour to Cream. Records of road tax end in 1969 so we assumed the Jensen was exported outside of the UK at this point.The history picks up around 1990 when a Mr. Mitchell from Sheffield, having owned a similar car earlier in his life, decided to relive his youth and to find another early Interceptor. The only suitable car was to be found on the other side of the world in Australia. So naturally Mr. Mitchell booked a flight and took off to Australia, buying this very car on the spot.The Jensen was shipping back to the UK and into Mr. Mitchell's ownership until the early 2000s, at which the current vendor acquired the car. The Jensen is exceptionally original, and with the exception of a colour change back to metallic Grey, appears not to have been restored. The convertible hood is, we believe, the original, as is the red leather interior which is in excellent condition with few signs of wear. The odometer reads just over 23,000 miles, and whilst we cannot warrant this figure, it is in our view a believable reading. The aluminium coachwork is in very good order and the older repaint holds up very well. The Jensen starts and runs nicely.Offered with original Buff log book and later 1990s V5, this is a very rare survivor in very original and unmolested condition. An interesting and stylish alternative to more obvious choices from the 1950s.

Lot No: 6 - Ref No: 038 Ottmossphere By Ann Montgomery Summer Holiday Home: Dartmoor National Park Visitor Centre, Princetown We are 'Ottmosspere' and we are clothed in mosses and are ambassadors for the moss world - because mosses are the unsung heroes in the battle against climate change. In particular sphagnum mosses may capture and store more carbon than any other land plant and as such are essential for cleaning up our atmosphere. So these seemingly modest plants are more important than most people give them credit for - they are also incredibly beautiful and are whole minute landscapes in themselves- tiny forests and rolling green hills and valleys which are every bit as spectacular as the larger landscapes they populate. The mosses that we are modelling here can all be found on Dartmoor. You can also find some cheeky favourite local beetles roaming in our mossy landscape, dung beetle and their favourite meal (poo)! and the spectacular but rare blue ground beetle which lives mainly in the mossy ancient forests of Dartmoor. "I have worked on and off as an artist/designer/illustrator on and around Dartmoor since moving here in 1990. I feel privileged to take part in this project which gives me a chance to say 'thank you' back to the place I love so much." This Otter is a 'Golden Otter' - one that has been specially selected by a panel of expert judges as being particularly stunning. Of the 81 Moor Otters there are only 25 Golden Otters. These Golden Otters will take their online bids to the live auction on Saturday, 2nd October 2021 at Bearnes, Hampton & Littlewood, Okehampton St, Exeter. You can continue to bid on these otters at the live auction in person or online.

English School, 19th Century, a rare 19th century Country House album of portrait sketches by an unknown hand, approximately seventy pen and ink portrait drawings of a range of primarily young aristocratic gentlemen, all named and virtually all dating from April 1874, none signed. Average size of each sheet 30cm by 20cm. Note: Some of the sitters can be identified including The Revd. Sir Charles Percy Graham-Montgomery, 6th Baronet, George Ralph Charles Ormsby-Gore, 3rd Baron Harlech, Francis Dudley Leigh, 3rd Baron Leigh, Amias Lucien Orde Powlett (of Bolton Castle) etc. The nature of the sitters and the close proximity of dates of the sketches perhaps suggests a son of the house may have entertained a number of his contemporaries in April 1874, perhaps as part of a series of house parties given by his parents. Most of the sitters identified would have been in the age range 18-20.

EDISON ELECTRIC PEN, the nickel-plated flywheel with a cast iron frame, decorated with a red line detail, the electric motor formed with two electromagnetic coils over a knurled shaft and oscillating steel stylus, pen 5¾in. (14.5cm.) high, Patented Aug. 15. 1876 The Edison Electric Pen was a reprographic device designed to create manuscript stencils and was driven by a wet cell battery. The vibrating stylus impressed minute perforations in a special wax-coated paper and although it sold well, surviving examples are rare. It was quickly superseded by the typewriter but has gained notoriety as the predecessor to tattoo machines. A gentleman called Samuel O'Reilly discovered that Edison's oscillating pen could be used to inject ink into the skin and in 1891 he patented an add-on ink reservoir and supply tube for this use. Soon after, Thomas Riley of London improved the Edison/O'Reilly rotary version by patenting a single coil machine fashioned from a modified doorbell. However, the Edison pen is widely regarded as the first 'modern' tattooing device. PROVENANCE: The Collection of Stuart Eastman
