SIR JOHN LAVERY (IRISH 1856-1941) PORTRAIT OF MINNIE PLOWDEN AND HER SON HUMPHREY, STUDY FOR A FULL LENGTH PORTRAIT Oil on canvas Signed (lower left) 35.5 x 25cm (13¾ x 9¾ in.)Provenance: Minnie Plowden, thence by descent to the present owner Literature: Kenneth McConkey, John Lavery, A Painter and his World, 2010 (Atelier Books, Edinburgh), p. 71 In 1898 Lavery, with the help of fellow Glasgow Boys and under the Presidency of James McNeill Whistler, established the International Society of Sculptors, Painters and Gravers, with the idea of staging annual exhibitions or 'art congresses' in London. As Vice-President, Lavery's three contributions to this radical departure were Portrait Group (Père et Fille), 1897, (Musée d'Orsay, Paris), A Garden in France, 1897 (National Gallery of Ireland, Dublin) and Mrs Roger Plowden and Humphrey for which the present canvas is the oil sketch. It is not entirely clear where and when the painter met the Plowdens. A member of an old Catholic legal and clerical family that hailed at the time of the Crusades from Shropshire, Roger Herbert Plowden was the son of a banker in Rome where, in his early years he led the life of a country gentleman. After his marriage to the daughter of Henry Jump of Woolton, near Liverpool in August 1883, he and his wife led a peripatetic existence between Rome, the south of France, their house at 32 Portman Square, London and Scottish estates, leased for the hunting and shooting seasons. They had been living in Rome before returning recently to Scotland where in 1897 Plowden rented and then purchased the Strachur estate on Loch Fyne from the Duke of Argyll. As with most large portrait commissions (fig. 1) Lavery planned his composition with a swift sketch as shown in Lot 43. In comparing the two it is instantly apparent that the composition has been reversed and the boy's leg positions changed. His silver suit has also been replaced by a black tabard. Sittings cannot have been easy since Minnie Plowden was unwell and increasingly immobile. As a 'mother and son' subject, the finished work is nevertheless a fine complement in tone, colour, handling and scale to the Orsay 'father and daughter'. For its part, the sketch is also more than a snapshot, making play with the flash of red in the sitter's cape and creating, in its soft greys, its own fine harmonies. Kenneth McConkey Condition Report: Light surface dirt throughout. A very minor loss to the centre of the lower edge. There is an area of slight undulation to the canvas visible to the upper right corner. Some very fine craquelure to the black pigment of Minnie's dress. Very small loss and surface scratch visible just above the signature, hardly noticeable. Inspection under UV reveals no obvious evidence of restoration or repair. In overall good original condition.

JAMES BOND: YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE (1967) - James Bond's (Sean Connery) Screen-Matched Costume - James Bond's (Sean Connery) screen-matched costume from Lewis Gilbert's Bond movie You Only Live Twice. Bond wore his suit in multiple scenes, from his arrival in Tokyo and his encounter with secret service agent Aki (Akiko Wakabayashi), up until Tiger Tanaka (Tetsuro Tamba) welcomed him into his home. A distinctive pinch in the jacket's left shoulder screen matches to the moment Bond met sumo wrestler Sadanoyama Shinmatsu.It is rare for examples of Sean Connery suits to come up for auction, as many were taken from the set by the actor after producer Albert "Cubby" Broccoli stated he could keep any of the costumes he requested. This lot was initially obtained by a crew member from a set costume sale when production wrapped.

The jacket features two button fastenings and three pockets on the front. An Anthony Sinclair label with handwritten blue text reading "July. 1966, S. Connery. Esq, 464 - 5468 Repeat" is located in the jacket's interior right-breast pocket. An additional label reading "May 1966, lt., S. Connery Esq, g., F456As5468/bm18h.b." is sewn into the pants.The suit's white cotton dress shirt and black knit tie are reproductions constructed by Turnbull & Asser, the same company that originally made the garments for the movie. Completing the display is a pair of smart black shoes. The suit displays minor signs of production use and age.Estimate: $40,000 - 80,000Bidding for this lot will end on Tuesday, March 12th.

Production distressing to the Yautja bio-mask in this lot screen-matches it to the one Classic Predator picks up after Royce freed him.Predators was lauded as a return to form for the beloved Predator franchise, winning two awards from the Taurus World Stunt Awards for "Best High Work" and "Best Specialty Stunt." Of particular acclaim were its Predator costumes designed by KNB EFX GROUP, Inc. to better accommodate the wearers than previous iterations while still paying homage to those from McTiernan's film.This Predator costume features a urethane rubber bio-mask intentionally distressed by production to appear damaged, lined with fiberglass cloth on the interior, affixed with mesh over the eye holes, and inset with a green wire on the temple; a stack of black foam neck rings; a body suit made of foam latex sculpted into a muscular, alien body with hand-punched rubber bristles and nylon netting around the legs and sculpted greaves; foam latex hands with sculpted gloves; and a pair of dense foam feet, molded over a pair of Asics shoes (size U.S. 13) marked "J. Classic Predator" on the interior. The accompanying head is made of foam latex and has an array of foam dreadlocks glued on the back, hand-punched rubber bristles, and plastic eyes and teeth. The bottom pincers can be moved up and down. The interior of the gloves are hand-marked "Classic Pred" in black.

RIEFENSTAHL LENI: (1902-2003) German film director. A significant and interesting correspondence collection comprising two A.Ls.S. and nine T.Ls.S. (several with holograph additions), Leni Riefenstahl, sixteen pages (total), 4to, various places (Munich etc.), January 1952 - December 1958, the majority to Christian Bourcier de Carbon (and, indirectly, Henri Langlois), in German. Riefenstahl writes on a variety of subjects, including her work and the efforts she made to recover her films reels, which had been confiscated by the French government at the end of World War II and retained at the Cinematheque Française, thanking De Carbon for supporting her in the return of her films, explaining that she intends to go to Paris personally 'as soon as possible to bring about the handover there and I would be happy if I could ask for your help. In order to obtain my French entry permit, it is necessary for me to receive an official invitation….from you as soon as possible (by express) so that I can receive my entry visa from the French consulate in Munich in a few days' (26th January 1952), further stating, in part, 'Many weeks have now passed since my stay in Paris and unfortunately the return of my material to the Austrian Embassy has still not become a fact…..If all these efforts are unsuccessful, then the last resort I see is either a civil suit against Monsieur Petitjean, a French film officer who at the time brought the material to France without permission and without a mandate from the French military government, or that I have to file a complaint with the International Court of Justice in The Hague' (19th March 1952), 'On 4th April I finally have my world premiere of 'Blauen Licht' in Munich….I wanted to go to Kitzbuhel over Easter and from there to Breuil to test the ski area there for my film 'Die roten Teufel'' (1st April 1952), 'Unfortunately I haven't received any sign of life from you since we were last together in Munich and wonder whether you are in Paris and whether you are aware of the outrageous article about me in the magazine 'Samedi Soir' of 10th May 1952. This article took over the pictures of the Munich 'Revue', made the same claims and published more fictional and forged Streicher letters. As a result, the already officially confirmed transfer of my films to the Austrian Embassy was thwarted at the very last hour…..I ask you to treat the contents of this letter as confidential. It is only intended to show you the base means by which my enemies in France are trying to prevent the return of my property. This new setback has made my current situation even more difficult, but I hope to be able to resolve the matter through a lawsuit. For this process I now need an absolutely flawless translation of the article from 'Samedi Soir' and I would be particularly grateful if you would have the same made, as I have no money to pay for the translation…..I will give you back your expenses after the case has been won…..My lawyer will ask the newspaper 'Samedi Soir' to bring a correction. If the newspaper does not do this, I will be forced to sue 'Samedi Soir' and again I would like your advice on which French lawyer I should hire?' (1st June 1952), 'Above all, I would like to tell you that your faith and the trust you have placed in me have given me a lot of strength. On the day of your visit in Munich I was really completely devastated by the mean slanders of the 'Revue'. Your encouragement helped me a lot. The next day I flew to Berlin and had the strength to face a big public hearing in Berlin to refute all allegations against me, although the chairman of the court was a Jew, he possessed the necessary objectivity to conduct the proceedings fairly, I was acquitted on all counts and fully rehabilitated. This was a great victory and will also help me to fend off further attacks. For your information I am enclosing a newspaper report from which you can see the means by which an attempt was made to destroy me. I am also enclosing the copy of the Berlin verdict, which is of particular value because the most severe verdicts are pronounced in Berlin. As a result of this Berlin verdict, I am now in a position to sue the illustrated magazine 'Revue' for defamation and professional damage. So I will once again have to endure a lawsuit, but I am convinced that I will win it and then the way for my future work will be free….I wrote to Mr. Borst today to find out how far my 'Tiefland' affair has progressed…..I cannot understand why the handover has still not taken place. If you are still in Paris, I would be indebted to you if you would ask Mr. Borst, or even better, Mr. Langlois directly, when the handover will take place, It can't be that my life's work is destroyed by the French' (5th June 1952), 'It has been a long time since we last spoke. In the meantime my 'Tiefland' film has begun in Germany and Austria with a very strong response from the press and so far I am very satisfied with the artistic success. If you don't have the opportunity to see it in a cinema somewhere, it will be my great pleasure to show you the film on your next visit to Munich. Only now can I fully immerse myself in the realisation of my ski film 'Die roten Teufel'…..I would now be interested, dear Mr. de Carbon, whether you are still interested in any way in co-financing the film…..I think it's going to be big business and it's worth investing capital in, It would also make the work easier because, if francs are available to me, I could finance French skiers and workers and possibly also some outdoor shots in French territory' (9th June 1954), the later letter of 1958 regarding a proposed ballet based on Das blaue Licht (1932, 'The Blue Light') in which Riefenstahl had appeared as an actress in the role of Junta, with Rosella Hightower suggested for the same role, Riefenstahl asking 'Is this prima ballerina a household name?'. Together with a few associated carbon copies of letters, two original envelopes, a small series of handwritten notes by Riefenstahl, and several French newspaper articles relating to the director. Some light overall age wear and a few letters with small tears and creasing to the edges, G to generally VG, Sml. Qty.Christian Bourcier de Carbon (1912-?) French civil and industrial engineer who invented the de Carbon hydraulic shock absorber in 1953, also establishing the De Carbon Company in the same year.Henri Langlois (1914-1977) French film archivist and cinephile, a pioneer of film preservation and co-founder of the Cinematheque Française.Towards the end of World War II the French government confiscated all of Riefenstahl's editing equipment, along with the production reels of Tiefland. After years of legal wrangling, these were returned to her, but the French government had reportedly damaged some of the film stock whilst trying to develop and edit it, with a few key scenes missing. Riefenstahl edited and dubbed the remaining material and Tiefland premiered in Stuttgart in 1954, however it was denied entry into the Cannes Film Festival. In the 1950s and 1960s the director attempted to make many other films, but was continually met with resistance, public protests and sharp criticism. Although both film professionals and investors were willing to support her work, most of the projects she attempted were stopped owing to ever-renewed and highly negative publicity about her past work in Germany, and Tiefland would subsequently remain as her last feature film.

DODGSON CHARLES LUTWIDGE: (1832-1898) Lewis Carroll. English author, poet and mathematician whose works include Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865). A good A.L.S., C L Dodgson, two pages, 8vo, The Chestnuts, Guildford (Surrey), 5th January 1874, to 'My dear Jebb', father of one of the author's 'child-friends'. Dodgson, writing in his characteristic violet ink, explains that he delayed from writing until knowing something of his plans, continuing 'Would it suit you to take me in for 2 or 3 days about the 17th?' and further stating 'I should much like to see you all again - though I can't help fearing that at last Edith has ceased to be a child, & that I shall find her with her hair done up 'a la grown-up' - Is it so? It will be a great shock to my feelings! But if it is so, I must bear it'. Dodgson also remarks 'I used to have a paper of your children's ages & birthdays, but have lost it. Could you tell me them again? I have lost count & can't make out Edith's age', before concluding by sending his regards to Mrs. Jebb and his 'Love to any daughters not too old'. With only a small, thin portion of the integral leaf of the bifolium remaining. Some very light, extremely minor age wear, VGDodgson had first encountered Edith Jebb (b.1858) in 1866 whilst staying in the coastal town of Whitby, North Yorkshire. The author sought an introduction to Edith and her sister, describing them as 'remarkably pretty', and succeeded in making their acquaintance. He took a photograph of Edith, her sister Florence, and their brother Alvery, at Braithwaite's in Whitby on 25th September 1866. Edith would also sit again for Dodgson in 1874, presumably soon after the present letter was written.
