1932 Bentley 4/8-Litre TourerRegistration Number: GT 8776Chassis Number: VF4008Engine Number: WK2665With their ultra-desirable running gear based on the 8-Litre chassis, many 4-Litre Bentleys were converted into specials using the more traditional and often more powerful WO Bentley engines. GT 8776 is one such car, having started life as a standard 4-Litre in January 1932, it originally wore HJ Mulliner saloon coachwork. Many decades ago, this body was removed and, according to Michael Hay, reinstated on a Rolls-Royce Phantom II. Apparently dismantled by the late 1960s, it was later rejuvenated and rebodied with a curvaceous Vanden Plas body, in which form Alex Tanner bought the car.Discovering the coachwork was not best suited to his intended trips overseas and with the 4-Litre running gear widely regarded as the ultimate 'blank canvas' for the basis of that mythical beast, the 'Le Mans-style 8-Litre', Alex Tanner instructed specialists, VBE Restorations, to create for him such a car from VF4008. The 4-Litre's major components have remained together, but with the addition of a powerhouse of an 8-Litre engine.The engine is based on a 6 ½-Litre, formerly fitted to a William Arnold saloon, and had been on loan to, and displayed at the BDC HQ. A rebuild to 8-Litre specification, with a new crankshaft with modern shells, special rods, crankcase conversion and opening up the crankcase to suit 110mm pistons, was carried out by Elmdon Vintage Automobiles Ltd.Clearly constructed to a very high specification, the 8-Litre has been used since 2010 for extensive touring on the Continent, including almost annual trips on the 'Downs' Vintage Bentley Tours of France.Finished in very dark British Racing Green, the coachwork is in Vanden Plas-style 'Le Mans' four-seat tourer configuration, with fabric-covered body, cycle wings, leather bonnet straps and quick-release radiator cap. Headlights are large diameter, top-quality Carl Zeiss.The green leather interior with green carpeting is in lovely condition and just starting to mellow. The rear seats were removed to provide extra luggage space and, now refitted, show hardly any use. Matching door cards feature a raised 'B' detail and the steering wheel is string-bound.The engine bay is in wonderfully presented condition and obviously dominated by the near-monolithic triple-carburettored engine. Bills on file refer to further engine work being undertaken to the cam damper and to improve the cooling system by NDR Ltd. in 2017.A small quantity of paperwork is present with the car together with a current V5C Registration Certificate.
1963 Bentley S3 Continental CoupéCoachwork by H J Mulliner & Co.Registration Number: OLM 7Chassis Number: BC120XAEngine Number: 60 ABCLaunched in 1962, the Bentley S3 Continental was the final Rolls-Royce/Bentley model to be constructed with a separate chassis. The 6.2-Litre V8 engine was improved with a higher 9:1 compression ratio and larger SU carburettors, and produced a healthy 210hp. The coachwork, originally penned by Vilhelm Koren, continued the non-top front-to-rear waistline, but now featured twin paired headlamps and styled flashing indicators and side lamps.First registered on 3 May 1963, OLM 7's first owner was Lady Margaret Howard, Countess of Suffolk, an American heiress. Reported to have had just five owners since, it has been in the current family ownership since 1975.One of only ten cars to carry this body style - six right-hand drive and four left-hand drive - this is reputedly the last of the ten to survive. The build cards show that the car was supplied new with electric windows, parking and flashing lights, a 630T radio, India Super Speed tyres and a special driver's seat. A beautiful Negretti & Zambra Auto Altimeter takes pride of place on the dash.Presented in 'Regal Red' with cream coachline and beige leather interior with matching carpets, the car has been fastidiously maintained by Rolls-Royce and Bentley specialists, P&A Wood, since 1969, and there are significant invoices for major works, including a full repaint in the original colours in 2010, within the history file. Invited by Bentley Motors to participate in the launch of the Bentley Arnage at Le Mans in 1998, the car is also mentioned in the book 'The History of P&A Wood, Attention to Detail' a copy of which is included in the sale.With a recorded 105,222 miles at the time of cataloguing, believed to be original, the history file contains the original buff logbook and current V5C, along with copies of the build cards and numerous invoices from P&A Wood dating back many years. Condition ReportThis car has had a huge amount spent on it at P & A Wood and at Jonathan Wood, however the car is being sold by the executors of the estate and as such Sworders have provided an extended 5-day viewing period for purchasers to satisfy themselves as to condition.The history file will be available during the viewing and on the day prior to the sale Mr Tanner's in-house mechanic will also be on hand to start the car.The car is in good overall condition and the seats appear to be clean.

NELSON (HORATIO)Ticket admitting the bearer to Nelson's funeral at St Paul's Cathedral ('Admit the bearer to a seat in the West Gallery Within the Church on the day of Lord Nelson's funeral'), issued to John Pape, and numbered 95, with uncommon red wax seal, printed with manuscript insertions, countersigned with initials ('J.P.'), on card, some dust-staining and other marks, 78 x 116mm., printed by W. Wilton, St. Peter's Hill, Doctors' Commons, [9 January 1806]; with a copy of The Times from Friday 10 January 1806, reporting on the funeral (2)Footnotes:'ADMITTANCE AT THE IRON GATE UNDER THE SOUTH DIAL OF THE CLOCK, WHERE THIS TICKET MUST BE PRODUCED, BUT NOT DELIVERED UP': a scarce named and numbered ticket bearing a red seal. The State Funeral of Lord Nelson, the first commoner to receive such an honour, was the most lavish state occasion of the era and lasted over five days, initiating an outpouring of public grief. A carefully orchestrated ceremony, it was '...a performance influenced by the prevailing theatricality of the day...' (Timothy Jenks, 'Contesting the Hero: The Funeral of Admiral Lord Nelson', Journal of British Studies, Vol.39, No.4, October 2000). The lying-in state in the Painted Hall at Greenwich from 5 to 7 January attracted between 15 and 30 thousand mourners and was followed by a grand river procession up the Thames to Whitehall on 8 January. The following morning hushed crowds watched the funeral procession travel the 2 miles to St Paul's Cathedral. Within the cathedral large stands had been erected for specially invited ticket holders. Named, numbered tickets bearing a red seal, rather than the usual black, and inviting the bearer inside the cathedral rather than to the procession, are uncommon.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
[AUSTEN (JANE)] – ADMIRAL SIR FRANCIS WILLIAM AUSTEN & CASSANDRA ELIZA AUSTENAlbum relating to Jane Austen's elder brother Admiral Sir Francis William Austen (1774-1865) and his daughter Cassandra Eliza Austen (1814-1849), containing some 73 landscape and maritime watercolours and drawings depicting scenes in the West Indies, Bermuda and Canada, comprising c.12 topographical reliefs probably by Francis ('Porto Santo', 'Peak of Teneriffe at Sunset April 3rd', 'St Lucia', 'Souffriere Mountain, St Vincent', 'Guadaloupe'); and 12 signed with the initials 'C.E.A.' and many dated ('St Pierre, Martinique, Feb 14 1846. French Steamer Styx', 'Port Royal at Sunset March 19 47', 'Halifax from the road to Point Pleasant, Sept 3rd 47', 'Kingston and Port Royal, Jamaica'); further drawings of shipping ('HMS Illustrious & Persian/ Bermuda', ''HMS Pickle') and landscapes abroad ('Clarence Hill Bermuda May 27 1845' (2), 'Shultzs Inn Great Lake Halifax', 'Quebec') and at home ('Godmersham Church', 'Godmersham Park, Kent') with a portrait of a young gentleman; plus 45 photographs of European landscapes etc., twentieth-century ownership inscriptions in pencil on inner front board, pencil, pen and watercolour, half calf, marbled boards, worn, drawings 175 x 254mm. and smaller, album 225 x 300mm.), [1845-1848]; with document dated 9 March 1860 confirming the position of the Austen family plot in Brompton Cemetery ('No.9669 on the plan of the said cemetery') and official Notice of Intestacy of Martha Austen nee Lloyd (first wife of Francis William Austen), dated 3 April 1843Footnotes:JANE AUSTEN'S NIECE RECORDS TRAVELS WITH HER FATHER IN THE WEST INDIES AND CANADA. Admiral Sir Francis William Austen, brother of Jane Austen, enjoyed a long and distinguished career in the Navy during the Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, and his memoir, offered in the present sale, describes in detail the many actions he encountered. After peace with France he served as Commander in Chief of the North America and West Indies Station from 1845-1848, when the scenes in this album were painted. In his memoir he describes at length the various places visited during this appointment including Bermuda, Nova Scotia and a Saratoga, where he found the men coarse and the women lacking modesty and decorum. Francis, by his own volition, enjoyed considerable talents in the area of topographical drawing and it is supposed that those drawings in the album are his ('...Capt A from a very early period of his Naval Life had given great attention to Hydrography, never missing an opportunity of doing something of the sort wherever he went...'). Many of the other works are likely to be by his unmarried daughter Cassandra Eliza (1814-1849), who travelled with him, along with her sister Fanny. Indeed, his ship Vindictive (1844-1848) could well be described as a 'family ship', with his sons Herbert and George and his cousin Charles Jnr, also taking positions on board. The artist who painted these delicate watercolours was described in far from glowing terms by a young Lieutenant, William King-Hall in his diary: '...An amused and amusing witness... Cassandra, a woman of forty features as 'Miss Vindictive' and the 'atmosphere' on board was 'dangerous'. If the ship's captain (Michael Seymour) were to leave 'Cass would be the Adl. and commanding officer'... In a later entry when the Vindictive had reached Bermuda, he observed that 'She is the Mistress of the Ship, influences the Adl. in every way, and in fact, I imagine will soon be Commander in Chief'. Such, he commented, were the 'evils of a Family Ship'...' (Brian Southam, Jane Austen and the Navy, 2000, p.320). Also of note in the album are two delicate pencil sketches of Godmersham, the seat of Edward Austen Knight, Jane Austen's eldest brother.A pencil inscription on the front paste-down by a descendant and dated February 1972 erroneously attributes the signed watercolours to Cassandra Esten Austen (1808-1897), daughter of Francis' other 'sailor brother', Charles, and great favourite of Jane Austen, not to be confused of course with her aunt Cassandra Elizabeth (1773-1845), Jane Austen's sister. Cassandra Esten also accompanied her father on his voyages and by all accounts had a similar childhood and upbringing as her cousin Cassandra Eliza (see 'Cassandra Esten Austen, Naval Childhood during the Napoleonic Wars', online blog by Sheila Johnson Kindred).Provenance: Admiral Sir Francis William Austen (1774-1865); his son Rev.
