Offered from the National Motorcycle Museum Collection c.1933 Vincent-HRD 499cc Model PRegistration no. not UK registeredFrame no. D705Engine no. 9005•Rare Rudge Python-engined Vincent-HRD•Initially assembled from parts circa 1973•Cosmetically restored by Ian Savage and the National Motorcycle Museum•Non-runner for display purposes onlyThe Vincent-HRD marque originated in 1928 when Philip C Vincent acquired the name, jigs, tools and patterns of the recently liquidated HRD Company. ('HRD' stood for Howard Raymond Davies, the Isle of Man TT winner who had founded the firm in 1924). Like Davies before him, Vincent relied on proprietary engines until increasing dissatisfaction with suppliers led to the creation of Vincent's own in 1934. One of the firm's suppliers was Rudge, whose proprietary engines were sold under the 'Python' brand name. According to document on file, written by the VOC's Ian Savage, its restorer, this Python-engined Vincent-HRD was built from parts by the late George Maple of Douglas, Isle of Man circa 1973 using a Vincent-HRD rear frame and swinging arm bearing bracket set from a Model P with frame number 'D705', dating from 1933. The other major components are a Series-A frame with no visible number; Series-B Brampton forks; and a Burman gearbox from a JAP-engined Vincent Model J of similar period. The engine, number '9005', appears to be a mixture of Rudge parts from the Ulster and Special models dating from 1933/34. The period 1933-1934 marked a transition in the specification of Vincent-HRD machines. From single brakes to twin brakes; to rod operated rear brakes; Terry to Dunlop saddles, etc. As the rear frame is of the earlier (cable-operated) pattern, the machine has been built to this period. The rest of the cycle parts are a mixture of pre-and post-war Vincent 'A' or 'B' items. Since acquisition the machine has benefited from further restoration by the NMM, as commemorated by the attached silver plaque.It should be noted that this motorcycle has been prepared for display purposes only and no attempt should be made to start it, as many of the engine's internal components are badly worn. The engine has been greased and oiled during assembly but not filled with oil, while the gearbox and cycle parts are greased as necessary. Accordingly, prospective purchasers must satisfy themselves with regard to this motorcycle's condition, completeness, correctness, or otherwise prior to bidding. The machine is offered with correspondence; the aforementioned document (perusal recommended); and an old (1972) Isle of Man logbook.Footnotes:As with all Lots in the Sale, this Lot is sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness, and originality prior to bidding.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
RICHARD KOČÍ 1954: TOPO IV 2008 Lacquered polymer 104 x 77 cm Topo IV falls into the playful period of Richard Kočí's work, when he experimented with various materials. Topo belongs to a very limited series of 6 - 7 similar sculptures, which are characterized by a significant role of colors and morphological shapes. There is an abstraction of previous philosophically tuned works into a free form, which requires a masterful mastery of the craft and considerable concentration. With the exception of the band saw, only basic hand tools are used in production. The author himself says of his work: "I am closer to art, which contains the process of search, independent of artistic trends, but in accordance with the time we live in. It follows that tradition is important to me, because I believe that we are based on something and we're building on something. "
