British Special Operations Executive (S.O.E) War-Time Propaganda Forgery German Postcard, these cards of which there are other types, were printed by the special Operations Executive (SOE) and were “Franked” with British Forgery of the 3 Reichspfenig definitive stamp (Hitler head) issue of 1941. The format and text were designed to lower the morale of the German Population, in this case by contrasting the Food Rationing Scales that were available to the Cadres of the National Socialist Leadership to those that were available to the normal population. On the obverse of the card were printed by SOE what the Ration Scale allowed to the Political Leadership consisted of (by Decree of the State Food Secretary Backe of 26.I.1943) To the reverse was a statement by Dr Robert Ley in his office as National Housing Minister (which was reported in the Newspaper “Der Angriff” of 12.10.1943) in which he claimed to be an ordinary “consumer” on the same Ration Scale as the rest of the population. How these were to be distributed to War-time Germany remains obscure, whether by SOE Agents, by Post from Switzerland or by RAF “Air-Drop” just some of the means SOE distributed their Propaganda to Germany. Very rare item.

London.- Bartlett (J.A.) & Britton (John) Topographical Survey of the Borough of St. Marylebone, ... from Surveys & Drawings by J.A. Bartlett under the direction of John Britton F.S.A &c., from Oxford Street to The Spaniards Tavern, with Regent's Park and part of Hyde Park, including plans and elevations of 20 public buildings, engraved map, by B.R. Davies, with early hand-colouring, 1120 x 950 mm. (44 x 37 1/2 in), dissected and mounted on linen, some scuffing and handling creases, browning and surface dirt, folding with brown endpaper bearing presentation inscription from Britton to 'JW Philipps Esq.', modern half-calf, marbled boards, 4to, 1834. ⁂ A scarce large-scale plan of Marylebone. Following the Great Reform Act of 1832, Marylebone became a new parliamentary constituency. It was one of five new parliamentary boroughs enfranchised in the same year, and was defined as consisting of three civil parishes: St Marylebone, Paddington, and St Pancras. The present map serves as a contemporary account of Marylebone as it was at this juncture, and illustrates new information obtained during the process of establishing it is a parliamentary constituency. Alongside the map itself, there are also elevations and plans of 20 churches, chapels, and municipal buildings, which were produced by the respected antiquarian and architectural historian John Britton (1771-1857). Marylebone was to remain its own constituency until 1885, when the Redistribution of Seats Act split it into eight single member divisions.
London.- Banks (J.H.) A Cosmoramic View of London, a bird's-eye panorama, looking north from above Elephant and Castle, from Vauxhall Bridge to St Katherine's Dock, etching and aquatint, with early hand-colouring, 470 x 1065 mm. (18 1/2 x 41 7/8 in), dissected and mounted on linen, varnished with discolouration, minor surface dirt, handling creases with occasional minor surface wear, folding with brown cloth endpapers, without slipcase, E. Wallis and J.H. Banks, 1843. ⁂ This is the first edition of this view, re-issued slightly later in 1845 as 'A Panoramic View'. The composition is similar to that found in cosmorama rooms as public attractions, but this version has been adapted for a smaller scale environment, such as libraries and coffee houses.
Ellis (Frederick Startridge, bookseller and author, friend of the Pre-Raphaelites, 1830-1901) [Fairy Tales in Verse from Grimm Brothers], autograph manuscript signed, 143pp., written on rectos only, numerous crossings out and corrections, autograph manuscript poem: "To Percy Bysshe Shelley 1792-1892 For the Shelley Centenary" loosely inserted and initialled "E.", browned, original cloth, remains of paper label on spine, sm. 4to, F.S. Ellis, Chelston, Torquay, 8th October 1894. ⁂ Unpublished. "For many years Ellis was official buyer for the British Museum, which brought him into rivalry with trade opponents in the auction rooms. He was also commissioned to edit the catalogue of Henry Huth's famous library, which was printed in 1880 in five volumes. Ellis was a publisher on a limited scale, and brought out the works of William Morris and Dante Gabriel Rossetti, with whom he was on terms of close friendship. Among other friends were A. C. Swinburne, Sir Edward Burne-Jones, and John Ruskin, whose Stray Letters to a London Bibliopole were addressed to Ellis and republished by him in 1892. Ruskin called him Papa Ellis (E. T. Cook, Life of John Ruskin, 1911, 1.371). It was in 1864 that William Morris was first introduced by Swinburne to Ellis, who later took over from Dante Gabriel Rossetti the joint tenancy, with Morris, of Kelmscott Manor in Oxfordshire. They shared an enthusiasm for fishing. Ellis advised Morris on his purchases of manuscripts. In Morris's last illness in 1896 he was with him every day, discussing a projected edition of the Border Ballads, and Ellis was one of the poet's executors (J. W. Mackail, Life of W. Morris, 1899, 1.193)." - Oxford DNB.

Following a very successful degree show, she began exhibiting in Glasgow and Edinburgh galleries. She exhibits in R.G.I. and P.A.I., in both drawing and painting exhibitions. The female form is her inspiration, interpreted in a contemporary manner. Her work is usually on a small scale, representational but not slavishly so. It can be mysterious and vaguely mythical.
