An extremely fine British War Medal awarded to The Reverend Major H. C. Eves, M.C. and Second Award Bar, Royal Army Chaplains’ Department, late Machine Gun Corps and Durham Light Infantry, who was twice decorated for personally capturing an enemy machine-gun and crew, and was later recognised for holding back waves of the enemy on the First Day of the German Spring Offensive. Devoting his later life to the study of theology and God, he became a much admired and loved personality in Newmarket, notably after suggesting Public Houses could become good recruiting grounds for the next generation of parishioners British War Medal 1914-20 (Major H. C. Eves.) attractively toned, minor edge bruise, good very fine £200-£240 --- M.C. London Gazette 4 February 1918: ‘For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. He personally captured an enemy machine gun and two of the team. On reaching the final objective he went forward in advance of the Tanks and captured two field guns. He showed great daring and initiative.’ M.C. Second Award Bar London Gazette 26 July 1918: ‘For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty during an enemy attack, when he controlled his battalion under very heavy fire, and later advanced to a most advantageous position, where his guns did great execution. Finally, although partially surrounded, he fought his guns to the last until overwhelmed by enemy bombers, and when all his guns except one had been knocked out, he succeeded in retiring with it.’ Harold Cecil Eves was born in Redcar, Yorkshire, on 13 June 1894. Educated at Coatham Grammar School, he was appointed to a commission as Second Lieutenant in the Durham Light Infantry in the London Gazette of 9 June 1915. Posted to France on 4 June 1916, he transferred to the Machine Gun Corps and was twice decorated with the Military Cross. The Second Award Bar was later notified in The North-Eastern Daily Gazette on 9 May 1918: ‘Lieut. H. C. Eves, who was recently awarded the Military Cross, has now received a Bar to his distinction for bravery in holding up the enemy with the machine-gun during the attack on March 21st.’ Hostilities over, Eves was admitted to St. Chad’s College, Durham University, where he was awarded a theological scholarship and a prize for Hebrew in 1920. Graduating B.A. (1921) and M.A. (1924), he won an open exhibition for mathematics with £30 and represented the University at football; he also played for Stockton Football Club. Ordained at Durham Cathedral, he took appointment as Curate at Brotton Parva and Carlin Howe, followed by Wath-on-Dearne from 1926-31. The Sheffield Daily Telegraph later recorded Eves experiencing further sporting success, this time on the golf course: ‘Bishop of Sheffield and the Game for the Clergy. The Reverend H. C. Eves of Wath, is the first winner of the Cup presented by the Bishop of Sheffield for competition among the members of the newly-formed Sheffield Clergy Golfing Society. On the course of the Abbeydale Club yesterday morning, the Rev. Eves led the way with an excellent card of 89-16: 73.’ The event proved a fine success, the Bishop keen to add: ‘He could think of no finer way for the Sheffield Clergy to get together than in God’s fresh air.’ Appointed to the living of Bradfield St. George, near Bury St. Edmunds, Eves subsequently spent the full duration of the Second World War as Chaplain to the Forces. The Bury Free Press & Post of 28 September 1945, adds: ‘In the early months he was in France, and was among the last to return to this country through St. Nazaire after the fall of Dunkirk. Since that time he has served in Scotland and Bury St. Edmunds.’ Transferred to the Suffolk and Essex Home Guard, Eves later found himself looking for new ways of filling his church pews with peace returned: ‘The Pub and the Parson. The Reverend H. C. Eves, former Rector of Bradfield St. George and now rector of St Mary’s, had something to say about racehorses and “pubs” when he addressed his annual parochial meeting this week. He described his five months’ stay in Newmarket as simply wonderful, and later went on to speak of the danger of young folk losing their vision in Christ... “We must do our bit,” he said. “It is our part of the battlefield...” There was laughter when the Rector said he had hinted to the men where they could talk about it, and he added: “I think the public house can be the best friend to a Parson!”’ A married man, the Reverend Harold Eves died at Newmarket on 6 January 1979.

An interesting Victory Medal awarded to Captain E. W. S. Bardsley, King’s Own Royal Lancaster Regiment, attached King’s African Rifles, who was wounded in action in 1915 and joined with his father in becoming a keen advocate for demilitarisation and the establishment of The League of Nations Victory Medal 1914-19 (Capt. E. W. S. Bardsley.) nearly very fine £80-£100 --- Eric William Schofield Bardsley was born in Litherland, Lancashire, on 18 January 1896, the son of the Reverend Joseph Udell Bardsley of Ulverston Parish. Educated at Eton, he finished third in the college’s Senior Sculls in 1914. Appointed Temporary Second Lieutenant in November 1914, Bardsley served during the Great War on the Western Front from 27 September 1915 with 8th Battalion, King’s Own Royal Lancaster Regiment. Subsequently attached to the 6th Battalion, King’s African Rifles, the Illustrated Sporting & Dramatic News of 18 December 1915 records him wounded in action. Evacuated home to his father’s residence at ‘The Vicarage, Lancaster’, Bardsley survived the war and later bore witness to his father becoming a prominent advocate for the League of Nations; the Reverend Joseph Bardsley was appointed Vice President of the Lancaster League of Nations Union in 1921. Regarded as a family of ‘peace pilgrims’, the Lancaster Guardian noted that ‘warm tributes were paid to the Reverend’ upon his death in 1928. According to family repute, Bardsley married Fabienne Eugenie Georgette Tombeur at Marylebone Registry Office on 14 December 1922. He was later awarded a bronze medal by the City of Bordeaux before returning home to Lancashire upon the death of his mother on 7 September 1939; interestingly, his Belgian wife is recorded in Elles ont suivi de Gaulle as joining the Free French in London on 21 April 1943, serving in the administration and health departments.

Manchester United Opus. Limited to 10,000 copies and personally signed by Sir Alex Ferguson and Sir Bobby Charlton. The ultimate tribute to a unique sporting institution, telling this story in greater depth than ever before with 400,000 words and 2,000 images displayed on an epic scale. Weighing in at 37 kilos and 850 pages long, each half a metre square, The Official United Opus is the biggest football book ever produced, and contributions by Britain’s finest sportswriters and photographers in collaboration with Red icons ensure that the Opus brings the reader closer to United than ever before. The story of Manchester United is one of the most emotive in the entire world of sport. Note: It’s the tale of a football club established by a humble group of railway workers in 1878 and taken on an incredible journey to the summit of world football; a journey encompassing the tragic loss of Sir Matt Busby’s incomparable Babes in the 1958 Munich air tragedy, and the manager’s own recovery from life-threatening injuries to build a new team and lead them to European Cup glory a decade later. Busby’s inspiring success and the style in which it was achieved attracted a global fan base and set a template for future managers. After years of hopes and false dawns, Sir Alex Ferguson finally emulated and exceeded those feats, culminating in the Treble of 1999. Comes in its original box. Buyer collects
