George Washington was an American political leader, military general, and the first President of the United States. He was born on February 22, 1732, in Westmoreland County, Virginia, and passed away on December 14, 1799, at his plantation, Mount Vernon, Virginia. Washington is widely regarded as one of the most important figures in American history.As a military leader, Washington played a pivotal role in the American Revolutionary War. He commanded the Continental Army and led the colonial forces to victory over the British during the American Revolution, which resulted in the formation of the United States of America. Washington's leadership, strategic skills, and perseverance were instrumental in securing American independence.Following the Revolutionary War, Washington became a symbol of the new nation's aspirations for self-governance. He presided over the Constitutional Convention in 1787 and was unanimously elected as the first President of the United States in 1789. Washington served two terms as president, from 1789 to 1797, and played a vital role in establishing the foundation of the federal government.As President, Washington set important precedents and shaped the office's role. He emphasized the importance of a strong executive branch while respecting the balance of powers outlined in the Constitution. Washington's leadership helped shape the early institutions and policies of the United States, including the creation of a national bank, the establishment of a judicial system, and the development of foreign policy principles.Washington's decision to step down after two terms set a precedent for future presidents, solidifying the peaceful transfer of power and the concept of a limited presidency. In his Farewell Address, he warned against political factions and entanglements in foreign affairs, advocating for unity and the importance of maintaining national interests.Beyond his military and political career, George Washington is celebrated for his character and integrity. He is often referred to as the "Father of His Country" and is admired for his leadership qualities, moral values, and commitment to the principles of liberty and democracy.Washington's contributions to American history and his instrumental role in the nation's founding continue to be recognized and celebrated. His image is prominently featured on the United States one-dollar bill, and his legacy as a visionary leader and statesman remains an enduring part of American identity.Measures 5 x 11.
When Ford initially commissioned the inaugural batch of Mercury Cougars in 1966, they instantly became a huge success with the public. The name itself evoked vivid imagery of strength, power, and style. The Cougar went on for a few generations, though the original generation is arguably the most well-known. Ford created the Cougar as a halfway point between Mustang and Thunderbird, most notably as a step-up from the Mustang. Ford had projected a sale of about 85,000 units in its first year. However, the public surprised the company by buying 150,000 units. The Cougar had a distinct look, feel, and appeal from its highly successful predecessor, complete with longer chassis and wider wheelbase. The Cougar continued to win many accolades in the years immediately following its launch. 1969s got a minor body restyle and facelift, with a new grille that was now horizontally-barred and stretched all the way across the nose, replacing the previous vertical split "electric-shaver" grille design. Taillights were restyled too, they now canted inward instead of outward, but the style was largely the sameThis Cougar is registered post April 1969, as it is the subtle face lift version. Presented in White with black hood stripe and black vinyl roof over. The interior is black leather or leatherette. It comes with the 351 cid 250bhp 5.8l Windsor V8, which we believe have had a few uprated items fitted to it. The hood appears to be from an Eliminator of the same year too. The car was imported by our vendor last year, from Texas. It is clear it hasn’t seen any rain or salty air! The car appears mechanically sound (but buyers are advised to check this). There is some trim to be refitted both externally and internally. However, all items appear to be with the car. The original black sports dials are with the car. For now though, it is fitted with performance race dials, which do look the part. This is an extreme muscle car and wants to be driven. For those who love Americana, this first gen Cougar is a must.

1924 Rolls-Royce 40/50hp Silver Ghost Coachwork by Steuarts of Calcutta Registration no. R 2509 Chassis no. 82EU Engine no. U176•Body believed built for the Maharajah of Mysore•Late Ghost with four-wheel brakes and AutoVac fuel system•Restored by the late Tony James. Ex RREC Chairman. •Recent service by Ristes of Nottingham•Ready to enjoy A car with a fascinating history, '82EU' was originally sold to Barkers who bodied it for the first owner, one Benjamin Sassoon of London. The car was signed off by Eric Platford on 29th November 1924 and delivered on 20th January 1925. Being a late Ghost, it benefits from four-wheel brakes and an Autovac fuel feed. The car's current body is an original open-drive example built by Steuarts of Calcutta circa 1913, it is believed for the Maharajah of Mysore. This in turn was a copy of a body built by Barkers in 1913, which was displayed at Olympia on chassis number '2366'. The Steuarts body was imported from India in 1967. This car is the life's work of noted Rolls-Royce luminary and enthusiast, the late Mr Tony James, who sourced the body (from James Black). Taken beside Lake Dhakhuria in 1965, a photograph of the body on the previous chassis comes with the car. A passionate restoration was carried out by Engineer, businessman, horologist, renown Rolls-Royce enthusiast, tools specialist, Tony James, whose hero was fellow engineer Sir Henry Royce. Tony studied and knew intimately the working of Rolls-Royce motor cars. During his term as chairman of the RREC he applied his considerable business skill and love of Rolls-Royce (and Bentley) cars to ensuring the strong financial status of the club with, amongst other things, the inception of the year book; preservation of cars and the marque, imparted knowledge at seminars and in articles written with clarity and humour as well as solutions via phone and email communication direct with fellow enthusiasts and those needing help within the industry. Tony offered step by step advice to fix and improve the workings of many a car project and had a hand in restoring 147 Rolls-Royce motor cars, with a particular interested in pre-war examples. '82EU' is finished in Royal Blue with black wings and roof and a black interior, with the bonnet left in polished aluminium. Photographs of the unpainted body come with the car showing it as found and installed. The driver's compartment is upholstered in black leather with original seat backs and re-trimmed seat squabs. An aluminium dashboard with the requisite instruments completes the ensemble. The attention to detail is extraordinary from the hand-crafted multi-layer coach-line, the hand-woven silk window tapes to the leather gaiters on the springs. The vendor confirms that the Ghost needs and wants for nothing. '82EU' is of sufficient importance to have graced the R-REC stand at the NEC.The Ghost has most recently been at marque specialists Ristes of Nottingham having an extensive service and a tune-up.This is a supremely elegant car with rare and highly desirable Indian coachwork. It is also a super Ghost to drive. The open drive Limousine allows the driver to feel the exhilaration of guiding her, whilst passengers are closed in the back in comfort upon button backed restored leather seating with vanity items and footwarmer to complete the plush interior. Affording the prospect of Silver Ghost motoring at its finest, it is ready for long distance rallies and quite capable of driving the entire length of Europe.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
