Cricket Broadside. Cricket. On Monday, October 1, 1798, a Match of Cricket, will be played on Tunbridge-Wells Common, between Mr R Hoskins and Mr Day, (of Mayfield) for Ten Pounds. The wickets to be pitched at 10'Clock, and the Game played out, Tunbridge Wells: Sprange, Printer, [1798], letterpress broadside on laid paper, some overall spotting and browning, 250 x 195 mm, tipped on to a later paper backing sheetQTY: (1)NOTE:A very rare and early cricket broadside. The printer would be Jasper Sprange (1746-1823), a printer, bookseller, and postmaster. The Tunbridge Wells Museum owns the Sprange Collection which contains over 300 sheets of proofs kept by Sprange in two albums as a record of the printing he completed between 1800 and 1802.A Mr Hoskins is identified as a lodging-housekeeper at 17 The Parade in The Directory: Or, The Ancient and Present State of Tunbridge Wells... , Tunbridge Wells: Jasper Sprange, 1808, p. 33. Mr Sprange is also listed at 1 The Parade. Hoskins, tailor, is listed at Bath Square, p. 31. As no initial for Hoskins's first name is given it is not possible to say whether this is the same man as who appears on the broadside and the identity of the other 'Captain', Mr Day of Mayfield, Sussex, is entirely unknown.The match which took place on Tunbridge-Wells Common refers to what is now known as Higher Common Ground which was used as a ground by Kent County Cricket Club in the nineteenth century and is now the home ground of Linden Park Cricket Club. It is known that cricket was played on the Tunbridge Wells Common since at least the eighteenth century and the first recorded match on the ground took place in 1782. The first first-class cricket match was held on the ground in 1844, when a team of Married cricketers played a Singles' team. Kent County Cricket Club first used the ground in 1845 and county matches were played on the ground until 1880. In 1882 a first-class match took place there between a United Eleven, captained by W.G. Grace, against the touring Australians. The ground has been used by Linden Park Cricket Club since 1906.

* Napoleon I (1769-1821, Emperor of France). A fragment of wallpaper from the living room of Longwood House, St. Helena where Napoleon died, with foliate fleur de lys star pattern motif in green/blue on yellow background, with circular ink stamp to recto of the Agenc[e] Consulaire de France S. Heléne, with pencil note to verso 'Don de G. Colin. Papier du salon o? il est mort 1932', 18.5 x 12.5 cm, together with a Société des Amis de Sainte-Hélène typed letter signed addressed to Capt. V[ictor] Brisson, c/o Ed. Little Esq., 170 Phillip Str. Sydney, Australia regarding his new membership to the Society, dated 14 December 1932, signed by the Society Secrétaire General, also with Victor Brisson's membership card, and typed letter from Sir Spencer Davis inviting Captain V. Brisson to luncheon on Friday 4 November 1.15 pm at Plantation House (Government House), St. HelenaQTY: (4)NOTE:Longwood House, St. Helena was the final residence of Napoleon Bonaparte, who was held in exile on the island of Saint Helena from 10 December 1815 until his death on 5 May 1821. The location was wet and windswept and the interior of the house was damp and unhealthy which may have contributed to Napoleon's ill health and death. Longwood was originally a farm which belonged to the East India Company, and it was later given as a country residence to the deputy governor. The property was converted for the use of Napoleon in 1815, but following Napoleon's death in 1821, Longwood House reverted to the East India Company and later to the Crown, whereupon it was used for agricultural purposes once more. In 1858 the ownership was transferred to the French government. By the 1940s the condition of the property had deteriorated and the French government considered demolishing the building, but the decision to restore Longwood was made and it is now a museum. Captain Victor Brisson was born in France and spent many years sailing and living in the Pacific. A number of his log books from voyages between 1928-1936 are held in the Rare Book Collection at Fisher Library, University of Sydney, Australia. Captain Brisson could likely have visited St Helena in 1932 on one of his voyages and acquired the wallpaper sample at that time
* Whitefield (George, 1714-1770). Anglican cleric and evangelist who was one of the founders of Methodism and the evangelical movement. Autograph Letter Signed with initials, Kilrush, Ireland, 16 November 1738, to James Hutton, Bookseller, without Temple Bar, London, in full: ‘On Tuesday when our water was quite gone and all reduced to greatest traits G[o]d brought us on shore near this place. I am now on my way to Dublin, chearful, in good health, and nicely equip’d by a Sergius Paulus whom G[o]d has commended to receive and sustain us. A Captain of a ship who I hope was effectually converted by the way in my Fellow Traveller. Pray and give thanks for us both. Particulars you shall have when I read you my journal. If you send me a letter to Coventry directed at Mr. (?)Gravenol’s to be left there till call’d for, I know not but it may meet me. For we are to pass thro’ Coventry. Oh dearest James I long to see you and take sweet council with you and our other d[ea]r friends. Oh when will it once be! I wrote my other letter some time past, therefore excuse all improprieties. Once more forget not to pray for yours eternally, GW’,‘G. Whitfield’ added in another later hand at head and the date over-inked, 2 pages with integral address leaf with ‘SHIP’ handstamp, a little dust-soiled, 4toQTY: (1)NOTE:A very rare autograph letter by ‘the first international celebrity’, who is widely considered to be the most famous religious figure of the eighteenth century, and one whose fame stretched to both sides of the Atlantic. It is estimated that Whitefield (or Whitfield) preached more than 18,000 formal sermons, visiting North America (he made 13 hazardous Atlantic crossings, eventually dying in America), Ireland, England, Wales, Scotland, Bermuda, Gibraltar and the Netherlands.This letter is written on Whitefield’s safe arrival from America in the west of Ireland, after over nine weeks on board. An account of the journey and his arrival in Ireland can be found in A Continuation of the Reverend Mr. Whitefield's Journal, from his Arrival at Savannah, to his Return to London (London: James Hutton, 1739), pp. 14ff. ‘This morning [16 November], about 11 o’Clock, after being most hospitably entertain’d by Mr Mac Mahon, and furnished with three horses, I and my servant, and my new Convert set out for Dublin, and reach’d Kilrush, a little town, about eight Irish miles from Karrigholt, about two in the afternoon, where we were sweetly refreshed, and tarried the remainder of the day with Captain Coc, who last night with his whole crew was like to be shipwreck’d’ (ibid., p. 30).James Hutton (1715-1795), Moravian leader, who may be called the founder of the Moravian church in England. He was educated at Westminster, and apprenticed to Mr. Innys, a bookseller of St. Paul's Churchyard. About 1736 he opened a bookshop of his own at the Bible and Sun, west of Temple Bar. Before the end of his apprenticeship he had met the Wesleys at Oxford, and when they left for Georgia in 1735 he accompanied them to Gravesend. Though he fell out with John Wesley, who vainly tried to persuade him away from Moravianism, they were later reconciled. In 1738 and 1739 Hutton published George Whitefield's Journal.Of additional interest is the well-struck ‘SHIP’ handstamp, believed to be the earliest recorded of the second type Dublin Ship letter mark. Only a handful of British ship letter marks are known to exist from pre-1750.

![Arthur Elliot, British, mid / late 19th century- Landscape sketches in Jersey, Guernsey, Serk [sic.] etc.; album of sketches](https://cdn.globalauctionplatform.com/688844f1-38a6-44ef-9fcb-b0a800b8d6f8/764e8a61-634b-4f29-849a-b0ac00d33a13/468x382.jpg)
Arthur Elliot, British, mid / late 19th century- Landscape sketches in Jersey, Guernsey, Serk [sic.] etc.; album of sketches, variously pencil, pen and ink, and watercolour on paper laid down on card, some signed 'A. Elliot', variously titled and dated, variously titled to the card, the frontispiece signed and inscribed 'Designed + drawn by A. Elliot' (lower right), 130 drawings altogether, 38 x 32 cm. Provenance: Private Collection, UK. Note: The present charming sketches illustrate, in the main, the picturesque and highly varied landscape of the Channel Islands, particularly the islands of Jersey, Guernsey, and Sark. Some, however, capture other locations, such as Hastings and, rather more exotically, Biarritz. These works offer a rare and captivating snapshot into the landscapes, lifestyles, and communities of the Channel Islands in the 19th century.
Giovanni Paolo Panini, Italian 1691-1765- View of Piazza Colonna with the Column of Marcus Aurelius, Rome; black chalk, pen and grey ink and watercolour on laid paper, watermark fragment fleur-de-lys with a crown, signed with initials ‘G.P.P.’ and indistinctly inscribed (lower left), further inscribed 'P.H.' (lower right), 25.3 x 36 cm. Provenance: William Esdaile (1758-1837), London; His sale, Christie's, London, 20 June 1840, lot 450 (2 gns to Hogarth). Unidentified collector's mark P. H. (L. 2084). Lore and Rudolf Heinemann, New York; Their sale, Christie's, London, 1 July 1997, lot 75. with Kate de Rothschild, London (Master Drawings, July 2001, no.11, illustrated). Private Collection, Europe. Exhibited: New York, The Pierpont Morgan Library & Museum, 'Drawings from the Collection of Lore and Rudolf Heinemann', 1973, no.32, illustrated. Note: By contrast with his extensive output of capricci, Panini’s detailed topographical ‘vedute’ of Rome like this view are rare. In this drawing, several important symbols of modern Rome can be identified around Piazza Colonna: the Palazzo Chigi and the Curia Innocenziana to the right, the Residenza di Monsignor Vicegerente at the centre, and the Chiesa dei Santi Bartolomeo e Alessandro dei Bergamaschi to the left. The same view appears in Panini’s painting ‘Modern Rome’, pendant to Ancient Rome, both in the Louvre [no.R.F. 1944-22; F. Arisi, ‘Gian Paolo Panini, e i fasti della Roma del’700’, Rome, 1986, no.500, ill.]. Other versions of these well-known views can be found in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York [nos 52.63.1 and 52.63.2], the latter showing the Piazza Colonna from a different viewpoint, and in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston [no.1975.805], also showing the Piazza Colonna from a different angle.
