Good glassware to include two cut-glass, urn-shaped pedestal bowls (probably early 20th century), an Art Deco period chromium-mounted circular (30cm diam.) fruit dish with opalescence centre and a heavy Baccarat cut-glass spirit glass (half-matchhead sized chip to rim) (the turnover bowl 20cm high and 26cm in diameter) (6) Condition Report: The turnover bowl is very heavy and the underside of the star-cut base exhibits some scratching as expected and commensurate with age. The very bottom of the circular foot has a half matchhead sized chip which could be ground out. It is noted on close inspection that the piece is signed Waterford to the underside. There is some surface scratching and clouding to the bottom of the inside of the bowl. The outside rim all appears with no damage and the rest of the bowl also appears in good general overall condition.

Christie.) edge bruising to the QSA and KSA pair, light contact marks throughout, generally very fine and better (9) £800-£1,200 --- D.C.M. London Gazette 19 August 1916: ‘For conspicuously good work rendered during the performance of a difficult operation. He has set a fine example to his Battalion.’ David Christie was born in Edinburgh in 1874 and attested there for the Royal Scots on 20 June 1892. He transferred to the Highland Light Infantry on 30 November 1892, and served with them during the Occupation of Crete, 31 July to 26 December 1898, being Mentioned in Despatches (London Gazette 24 January 1899). Major I. C. Conway-Gordon, 1st Battalion, Highland Light Infantry, was an eye-witness to Christie’s act of gallantry, and later wrote the following testimonial: ‘On 6 September 1898 fire was suddenly opened on the troops stationed at Kandia, Crete, by the Bashie Bazouks. Sergeant D. Christie immediately turned out “A” Company, 1st Battalion, Highland Light Infantry, of which Captain A. G. Balfour was in command. Captain Balfour took up a position with his Company and shortly afterwards Private Walton was wounded. The Hospital was situated about 100 yards from the position occupied by “A” Company, and the ground between was open all the wire to fire. Sergeant Christie volunteered to take Private Watson to the Hospital. He succeeded in doing so although exposed to a heavy fire from the enemy. Against the advice of the Medical Officer he returned across the zone of fire and rejoined his Company. I was an eye-witness of this action on the part of Sergeant Christie and consider he showed the utmost bravery and coolness under fire in carrying out the duty he had volunteered for. Throughout the remainder of the action he continued to display the same gallant spirit and much assisted and encouraged the men by his example.’ Christie saw further action in South Africa during the Boer War from 23 October 1899 to 11 January 1903, and received the Queen’s South Africa Medal with clasps Cape Colony, Paardeberg, Wittebergen, and Transvaal (his entitlement to the Transvaal clasp appearing on a supplementary roll), as well as the King’s South Africa Medal with both date clasps. Remaining with the Regiment, he was awarded his Long Service and Good Conduct Medal, before transferring to the permanent staff of the 6th Battalion (Territorial Force), and served with them during the Great War in Gallipoli from 2 July 1915 as Acting Regimental Sergeant Major. For his services in Gallipoli he was awarded the Distinguished Conduct Medal, as well as being once more Mentioned in Despatches (London Gazette 25 September 1916). Embarking for England from Alexandria on 3 September 1916, he was discharged at Hamilton on 20 October 1916, after 24 years and 123 days’ service, and was awarded a Silver War Badge.
A Second War 1940 ‘Bomber Command’ D.F.M. group of five awarded to Sergeant R. F. H. Jones, Royal Air Force, Wireless Operator and Air Gunner in No. 40 Squadron Distinguished Flying Medal, G.VI.R. (552118. Sgt. R. F. H. Jones. R.A.F.); 1939-45 Star; Air Crew Europe Star; Defence and War Medals 1939-45, these last four unnamed as issued, the first with repaired and re-affixed suspension, otherwise good very fine (5) £1,200-£1,500 --- D.F.M. London Gazette 30 July 1940. The recommendation by Air Commodore J. M. Robb states: ‘Sergeant Jones has carried out 19 operational flights since 10th May, 1940. Although he has not had the opportunity to carry out any outstanding feat, his general work against the enemy has been of an exceptionally high standard. Towards the end of May, 1940, as a result of casualties, he was of necessity sent on missions on four successive days. Sergeant Jones, by his fine spirit and indomitable courage, set an excellent example to the new crews who were posted in to replace these casualties and he was, in my opinion, very largely responsible for maintaining the esprit de corps of the squadron. I recommend the award of the Distinguished Flying Medal.’ Sold with full research including copied extracts from 207 Squadron O.R.B.
A Second War D.F.M. group of four awarded to Flight Sergeant C. H. Wolstenholme, Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve, who completed 36 operational sorties with 90 and 7 Squadrons, many as part of the Pathfinder Force against some of the heaviest defended targets in Germany, and was killed in action when his Lancaster was shot down by a German nightfighter during a raid on Hannover in September 1943 Distinguished Flying Medal, G.VI.R. (1154508. F/Sgt. C. H. Wolstenholme. R.A.F.); 1939-45 Star; Air Crew Europe Star; War Medal 1939-45, good very fine and better (4) £2,400-£2,800 --- Provenance: Dix Noonan Webb, April 2020 (Distinguished Flying Medal only) D.F.M. London Gazette 15 October 1943. The original Recommendation, dated 17 August 1943, states: ‘This N.C.O. has navigated bomber aircraft on 29 operational sorties; of these, 12 have been with the Pathfinder Force. Flight Sergeant Wolstenholme has achieved a very high standard of navigation. His careful pre-planning and the accuracy maintained throughout the flight have set a fine example. His targets have included many in Germany and Italy and against these, he has directed his Captain with such precision that very successful bombing runs resulted. Throughout his operational tour, Flight Sergeant Wolstenholme has displayed a fine spirit.’ Cyril Hayworth Wolstenholme was born in Cardiff in 1914. Working as a Clerk and living in Ammanford, Carmarth, he enlisted in the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve in 1940 and trained as a navigator. Serving with 90 Squadron, flying Stirlings, his first operational sortie was a raid on Lorient on 13 February 1943. During the following two months, he took part in another 17 sorties, including a large number over targets in Germany, including Cologne, Wilhelmshaven, Nuremberg, Berlin, Essen, Kiel, Duisberg, Frankfurt, Stuggart, and Manheim. Transferring with his crew to 7 Squadron in May 1943, flying Stirlings as part of the Pathfinder Force, his first sortie with this squadron was a raid on Dortmund, followed by raids on Bochum, Dortmund, Wuppertal, Le Creusot, Krefield, Elberfield, Cologne, and Hamburg, before converting to Lancasters for an attack on Nuremberg on 10 August 1943. Continuing in Lancasters, three raids on Italian targets followed - to Turin and twice to Milan - before a series of four raids on Berlin and Nuremberg. On 5 September 1943, during a raid on Mannheim, Wolstenholme’s Lancaster was attacked by an Me210 which was shot down in flames by the rear and mid upper gunner. However, during their next raid, to Hannover on 27 September 1943, Wolstenholme’s Lancaster JA849 MG-F, under the command of Pilot Officer D. A. Routen, D.F.M., was posted as missing. A report noted they were shot down by a nightfighter and crashed at Osteressen. Wolstenholme, who had completed 36 operational sorties, and four other members of his crew were killed; two other members of the crew survived and were taken Prisoners of War. Wolstenholme is buried alongside his fellow crew-members in Rheinbery War Cemetery, Germany. Sold with quantity of research including copies of Operations Record Books for both 90 and 7 Squadron; Combat Reports; and other research including photographic images of the crew.
