Doctor Who cassettes: Collection of recordings on cassette tapes, some of the episodes are believed to have been 'lost' and to our knowledge have never been commercially released by the BBC. These recordings were taken from original off-air broadcastsIncluded are recordings for the following stories. All stories are complete - except The Wheel in Space and Moonbase: The Unearthly ChildThe DaleksEdge of DestructionThe AztecsPlanet of the GiantsThe Myth Makers (lost story)Daleks Invasion of EarthThe RescueThe RomansThe Web Planet (this one appears to have a around 5 secs of extra audio footage not featured on the VHS release.)The Space MuseumThe Smugglers (lost story)Power of the Daleks (lost story)The Highlanders (lost story)Tomb of the Cybermen = 5/6Evil of the Daleks (partially lost story)The Web of Fear (partially lost story)The Mind Robber = 8 Fury From the Deep (lost story) The Invasion (partially lost story)The Krotons Moonbase (partially lost story l. Please note episode one is missing from this cassette tape)The Ice Warriors (partially lost story)The DominatorsThe Wheel in Space (partially lost story. Please note episodes 5 and 6 not included)The Seeds of DeathThe War GamesPlease note we believe that The Mind Robberand The Seeds of Death are later broadcast recordings. The Seeds of Death is a recording of an unabridged broadcast (similar to the early BBC video release). The Mind Robber has something running over the end credits which suggests it was a repeat broadcast. Still, this suggests that all these recordings have indeed come from television broadcasts. Provenance: The vendor placed an advert in their local newspaper around 15 years ago asking for film reels of film and TV shows, including Doctor Who. We believe the original owner of these tapes was a Doctor Who fan who, back during the original transmission of the episodes, recorded the stories via a magnetic tape recorder. They then were transferred/re-recorded the recordings onto cassette tape much later. The quality of the recordings varies due to their age and the way in which they were originally recorded.

Johnson, Dalí & Magritte, exh. cat., Brussels, 2019 (illustrated p. 69).'How can one forget that constant play between the interior and exterior worlds created by the large windows facing out on the ruins of the Imperial Forum; the palm in front of the French windows; the American vine on the facade, its fiery red colour in autumn ... The exterior creeping in, regularly interspersed with musical instruments, the creative disorder of the scores and books on the piano and on the tables, the drawers overflowing with recording tapes, the ancient objects, the portraits of the Yoga Masters and the Ascetics – a corner of mysterious Icons - the discreet tapestries, the worn rugs and, on the sofa in a visual axis with the palm, under two golden silhouettes, Giacinto Scelsi' -Luciano Martinis (translated from 'A proposito di un dittico di Dalí', in I suoni, le onde. Rivista della Fondazione Isabella Scelsi, no. 9, Rome, April - June 2002).For the fortunate visitor to Giacinto Scelsi's home in the historic centre of Rome, the sight of Salvador Dalí's Surrealist masterpiece Couple aux têtes pleines de nuages would have been an unforgettable one. In the midst of the composer's many scattered instruments, notes, recording tapes and antiquities, hung these exceptional panels in hand-carved shaped gilt frames: a couple, leaning contemplatively towards each other, their torsos filled with the unmistakable dreamscapes of the Spanish painter's finest work. The enigmatic and revolutionary composer Giacinto Scelsi Conte d'Ayala Valva (1905-1988) dedicated his life to writing innovative music, only achieving critical acclaim a few years prior to his death. Scelsi was born into a noble family in the South of Italy, and started playing the piano at the early age of three. After studying composition and harmony in Rome, Scelsi travelled abroad extensively and moved within Europe's avant-garde elite. Whilst living in Paris in the 1920s he encountered the Surrealists. Notable among these artists, writers and poets was Paul Éluard, the first husband of Gala Dalí and to whom, according to Scelsi, Dalí's stunning diptych Couple aux têtes pleines de nuages first belonged. He recounted to his biographer Luciano Martinis that the work had been gifted to Éluard by Dalí as a wedding present, and that he had in turn acquired the diptych from the French poet. Scelsi keenly followed the currents of Surrealism, and wrote Surrealist poetry in French – he often declared his love of Éluard's poetry to close friends and maintained links to the group, spending time with Salvador Dalí and Gala during their travels in Italy during the Spanish Civil War.Scelsi was a true innovator, and developed an idea of a 'spherical' sound which he translated through microtonal elements in his music. Much like the Surrealists before him, Scelsi was fascinated by the concept of automatic and intuitive improvisation, which he used to create works such as La nascita del Verbo (1948), Quattro pezzi su una nota sole (1959) and String Quartet No. 4 (1963), recorded séance-like on a tape recorder. He collaborated with American composers such as John Cage, Morton Feldman and Earle Brown, and became a source of inspiration for Ennio Morricone's Gruppo di Improvvisazione di Nuova Consonanza. However, Scelsi remained largely unknown for most of his career and he stopped composing in the late 1970s. The Parisian group Itinéraire declared Giacinto Scelsi the father of the avant-garde in 1982, and a series of concerts in the late 1980s debuted many of his pieces to great acclaim shortly before the composer's death. The impact caused by the late discovery of Scelsi's works was described by Belgian musicologist Harry Halbreich: 'A whole chapter of recent musical history must be rewritten: the second half of this century is now unthinkable without Scelsi [...] He has inaugurated a completely new way of making music, hitherto unknown in the West' (Halbreich quoted in P. A. Castanet, Giacinto Scelsi aujourd'hui: actes des journées européennes d'études musicales consacrées à Giacinto Scelsi (1905-1988), Paris, 2005, p. 191). In 1987, Scelsi founded the Isabella Scelsi Foundation and presided over it until his death in 1988. He named the Foundation after his sister Isabella, to whom he had remained close throughout his life. The Foundation is dedicated to the study and dissemination of his work, and the support of new music. Issuing from the height of his Surrealist period, Couple aux têtes pleines de nuages foregrounds some of the most iconographic elements of Salvador Dalí's best-known works. Painted at a time of huge personal and political change, the innovative format of the present work and the fascinating provenance place it as one of the most important works by this extraordinary artist ever to appear at auction.The Catalan artist's involvement with the Surrealist movement and his passionate relationship with his future wife Gala both began in the same year, and from then on, his romantic life and his practice would forever ...
