Lot 121

An album of postcards compiled by Lily Brown, from the 1920s onwards, including whilst she was in service as head housekeeper for Sir Oliver Stanley MP and his wife. The album includes pictures taken at Blackpool Pleasure Beach, Birthday and Greetings Cards, humorous cards including designs by Donald McGill, Mabel Lucie Attwell, Beatrice Mallett and Bonzo Series, Military Postcards, Photographic Portraits including some of Stanley family, Lyndford Hall, Allenheads, the RMS Mauretania and Aquitania and further assorted postcards (approximately 298) *These postcards were collected from the 1920s by Lily Brown, the great aunt of the present vendor. Brown was initially sent to London from Chirk to be 'in service' when she was 14. After two unhappy placements, she found a position with Sir Oliver Stanley MP and his wife Lady Maureen at Witherslack Hall in Cumbria and at their London Home in Grosvenor Place. Sir Oliver was a younger son of Lord Derby of Knowsley and the family socialised and visited other notable families of the time - with Lily accompanying them on many occasions. Whilst in service she rose in position from maid to head housekeeper, and was the inspiration for the maid in "Spring Cleaning ", the play by Frederick Lonsdale, which he wrote at Witherslack Hall in 1943/1944. The staff often communicated with their own families, and with each other by postcard, often with a line to say what time they were expected, or that they had arrived safely. They had photographs taken as postcards to send to friends and family The lady of the house insisted that all mail be delivered to her on a silver salver at breakfast each morning, where she would look at each item and pass it to the recipient. The footmen decided that it would be a great joke to send saucy postcards to the maids and bought them on their days off. They either posted them or slipped them onto the tray. Whoever was on duty at breakfast would report the lady's reaction in the servants hall. This is why there are a number of Donald McGill and other saucy postcards in the collection. Lily later married Stanley Orr the chauffeur and worked happily for the Stanley family until their premature death. The household was broken up, Witherslack became a school; Lily retired, coming back to live in Chirk.
