Seat board is present but detached. Case is in reasonable condition. Some minor damage to veneers. Trunk door hinges are replacements and door no longer fits.

Lot 439
DISRAELI BENJAMIN: (1804-1881) British Prime Minister 1874-80. A.L.S., B Disraeli, four pages, 8vo, Down Street, Piccadilly, n.d. (c. July/August 1837) to Mr. Wickham. Disraeli announces 'Although the election in my own count & other similar matters have engrossed my attention since I left Maidstone, I beg to assure you I have not forgotten my kind friends & constituents & especially those to whose spirited support I am mainly indebted for the high honour of being their representative' and continues to thank Wickham personally, commenting 'Your energy & unwearied assiduity did wonders. I hope I shall always find you at my right hand in similar situations.' Disraeli further adds 'The good cause looks well. England is true to herself & as long as that continues we shall baffle all traitors.' Framed in the original wooden frame and glazed to both sides to an overall size of 11 x 9. The letter is neatly split into two pieces at the horizontal central fold (and with some slight splits to the other folds), only very slightly affecting the text, which remains perfectly legible. Disreali won a seat in the House of Commons in the Election of July 1837, representing the constituency of Maidstone as a Tory. He made his maiden speech in Parliament on 7th December 1837 and remained MP for Maidstone until 1841.
