Lot 2009

- Fitted with unique Shooting Brake coachwork (ex-chassis 1346) that HRH the Prince of Wales had Barker refinish to his own design in 1923. - Current family ownership since 1994 and enjoyed on numerous 20-Ghost Club events plus tours through Europe, South Africa and Australasia etc - Maintained by Cliff Long and will be driven to the sale - Matching chassis and engine numbers, Whitehead front wheel brakes Further Info: The exemption from capital gains tax for only or main residences has distorted property prices in the interim but when new a Rolls-Royce 40/50hp Silver Ghost was not so much the price of a good town house - as its modern equivalent would be today - but rather the price of a good street. Thus, it is no surprise that initial or subsequent owners often sought to prolong the lifespan of their Silver Ghosts by re-bodying them. The elegant Barker Shooting Brake coachwork which adorns the lot on offer (chassis 107EM) was originally fitted to chassis 1346 which in turn had been supplied new to W.J. Stevens Esq. of Margate, Kent as a Barker Limousine. The more sporting / utilitarian body is thought to have been constructed in 1921, a year before the car was acquired by H.R.H. the Prince of Wales. The future King Edward VIII decided to put his own stamp on the Shooting Brake during 1923 by commissioning Barker to apply a bespoke walnut effect finish to its aluminium panels. An article entitled `A Royal Shooting Brake' which appeared in Country Life magazine some five years later remarked: `It is not, however, generally known that the idea of grained wood finish originated with H.R.H. the Prince of Wales, whose Rolls-Royce Shooting Brake set the fashion . . . The idea was original and experimental, but the car thus painted five years ago has been in commission ever since and has only once been revarnished. The painting is still as good as the day when it was turned out and the finish has proved as durable as any ever placed on the road . . . Experience with shooting cars suggests that they have to do all kinds of work and carry abnormal loads over impossible ground. Keepers and loaders with nailed boots, retrievers, lunch hampers, bags, gun cases and weighty cartridge magazines - all these are things which are very definitely productive of excessive wear and tear. A journey along a rather overgrown wood ride to a lunch hut will play havoc with either paint or panel that is not of the best, and there are few cars which could stand two successive shooting seasons without showing very marked exterior deterioration'. Whether there is any truth to the rumour that H.R.H. the Prince of Wales used the Shooting Brake to smuggle Wallis Simpson into and out of Balmoral is unknown (its rear compartment contains black `pull down' silk blinds). Acquired by Sir H. Mackenzie in September 1940 and Allan Grey Esq. some eight months later, the Rolls-Royce certainly spent a considerable amount of time in Scotland. Part of the Ayrshire-based John C. Sword Collection for many years, it achieved the highest price of the day - £3,100 - when the first part of the Collection was dispersed by auctioneers John Watson & Son of Glasgow on 7th September 1962. Autocar magazine carried an illustration of the Shooting Brake a week later as part of its sale report, while the successful purchaser was a Canadian solicitor John Burnett Esq. On display at the Niagara Falls Antique Auto Museum for several years and bought by Californian B. Paul Moser during 1972, chassis 1346 was subsequently divorced from the Barker Shooting Brake body and currently wears Roi-des-Belges-style tourer coachwork. The lot on offer - chassis 107EM - was supplied new to John Gardener Esq. of Glasgow as a Windovers Torpedo Tourer. Mr Gardener had Whitehead front wheel brakes fitted to the Silver Ghost in 1927 before selling it to R.G.W. Berkeley Esq. of Worcester. The latter retained the car until 1966 when D.A. Payne of Birmingham took ownership. Sporting Sunbeam Tourer coachwork for a while, the Rolls-Royce had been stripped to a `matching numbers' rolling chassis by the time that marque enthusiast David Toms Esq bought it from Adrian Liddell of Andover (who owned the famous Straker Squire Brooklands racer for many years). Mr Toms not only recommissioned chassis 107EM but also fitted it with the discarded ex-H.R.H. the Prince of Wales Barker Shooting Brake coachwork which had previously adorned chassis 1346. Although not road registered until 1924, chassis 107EM was built in 1923 the same year that the future King Edward VIII had Barker apply the wood grain effect finish to his trend-setting Shooting Brake. Partially restored since entering the current family ownership in 1994, the Barker Shooting Brake has continued to transport notable personages (including eight Lord Mayors on one occasion) as well as being enjoyed on numerous tours and rallies in New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Norway, Sweden, South of France, Alps, Pyrenees and Ireland etc. An accompanying letter from Cliff Long - the former proprietor of Cliff Long (Engineering) Veteran, Vintage & Classic Car Restorations - recalls that after pre-purchase vetting `The car was sent into my workshops for regular servicing and maintenance. When I retired I continued to service and maintain the car at the owner's home on a regular basis, so therefore the car has always been well looked after and hopefully ready for any long distance rally as required at any time'. Currently MOT tested until 24th July 2015, it is anticipated that chassis 107EM will possess a fresh certificate by the time of sale. Starting readily upon inspection, the lady vendor has every intention of driving the Rolls-Royce some 95 miles to Burghley House. The Dark Green hued wings and Black leather upholstery exhibit a certain amount of patina but the car remains in fair to good cosmetic order. Boasting Royal connections thanks to the provenance of its unique Barker coachwork, this imposing Rolls-Royce 40/50hp Silver Ghost would grace many a collection (especially if the new owner had access to a suitable estate). H&H are indebted to renowned Rolls-Royce historian and co-author of `The Edwardian Rolls-Royce' John Fasal for his assistance in the preparation of this catalogue description.

Lot 2023

PLEASE NOTE: Since the catalogue went to press we have been contacted by F.G. Wade Palmer's former business partner Rick Ford who informs us that (a) Chassis 89RM had already been converted into a garage breakdown truck (complete with hoist) by the time Wade Palmer bought it in 1958. (b) The Jack O'Lantern garage was located on the main road from London to Bournemouth and as such the Rolls-Royce's services were frequently called upon by stranded motorists. (c) Wade Palmer supplied two Silver Ghost Tourers - as well as the more famous Armoured Cars - for the Lawrence of Arabia film and indeed used the rear wings from one of the 'Lawrence of Arabia' Tourers when re-bodying chassis 89RM during 1963 by which time he had relocated to the old Jam Factory in Romsey. Interestingly, the front wings are thought to be the original Hooper crafted items (d) The bus coachwork fitted to chassis 89RM began life aboard a Ford commercial operated by a firm of New Forest ironmongers named Pink & Stretch who used it to ferry passengers from Lyndhurst Road Railway Station to the Lyndhurst Crown Hotel. Pink & Stretch scrapped the bus but local dentist Mr Edwardes saved the body, storing it under a tarpaulin in his garden. (e) Mr Ford took the newly configured Silver Ghost Estate Bus to the RREC's 1964 Goodwood meeting where he tells us it received 'a typical mixed reception'!     - Supplied new to financier and MP Sir Harry Deeley Mallaby-Deeley - Converted into a Shooting Brake by Wade Palmer of Jack O'Lantern garage during the late 1950s - Past refurbishment work by Ashton Keynes totalling over £40,000 Further Info: Originally fitted with Enclosed Drive Limousine coachwork by Hooper, chassis 89RM was supplied new to the financier and MP Sir Harry Mallaby Mallaby-Deeley of Mitcham Court, Surrey on 11th November 1924. Returned to the factory some twelve years later, the Silver Ghost was treated to an engine overhaul, upgrade to Andre Telecontrol shock absorbers, re-tempered leaf springs, sundry rewiring and a conversion to well base wheel rims. Passing to Sir Guy Meyrick Mallaby Mallaby-Deeley upon his father's death in 1937, the Rolls-Royce appears to have remained in the Surrey area until 1958 when Bertram Cowan sold it to fellow dealer F.G. Wade Palmer for £100. Based at the Jack O'Lantern garage near Romsey in Hampshire, Mr Wade Palmer breathed new life into countless Silver Ghost and Phantom chassis. As well as recreating the Silver Ghost Armoured Cars that featured in the 1962 film Lawrence of Arabia, he rebodied chassis 89RM as a Shooting Brake / Estate Bus. Operated by a firm of ironmongers named Pink & Stretch and used to ferry passengers from Lyndhurst Railway Station to the nearby Crown Hotel for a time, the Silver Ghost was offered to marque historian and co-author of `Edwardian Rolls-Royce' John Fasal in mid-1965 for the princely sum of £500. Recalling that `being nine feet high and over twenty feet in length I had no garage at the time to accommodate this useful vehicle', Mr Fasal noted its appearance in renowned dealer David `Bunty' Scott-Moncrieff's Motor Sport magazine advertisement a few months later. Priced at a somewhat more bullish £1,875, chassis 89RM was said to be `fitted with original `Servants' Bus' fourteen-seater body' and further described as: `the type of bus, kept by great houses, to replace the wagonette to take servants' luggage to the station (nearly everybody brought their own valet or lady's maid in those days), beaters to the shoot etc. Chassis-wise the vehicle is in well above average condition. It had a complete mechanical overhaul at the Rolls-Royce works in 1945 (sic) and has done less than ten thousand miles since'. Subsequently sold via Frank Dale Ltd to theatre impressario T. Mitchell of Gore Bridge, Midlothian in June 1966, the Silver Ghost was re-registered from `PD 3078' to `YT 33'. Given an engine overhaul during the mid / late 1980s by its then keeper, Richard W. Blake of Lamorna Vintage & Classic Restorations Ltd, chassis 89RM was visited in Cornwall by Mr Fasal who remembers Mr Blake as being `a very accomplished woodworker and the man responsible for the incredible huge drums that were used in the film Zulu'. Coincidentally, `YT 33' is understood to have appeared in an `Age of Innocence' (a BBC2 documentary on the life of photographer Charles Roff) and to have featured in Colonel Eric Barrass's `A Source Book of Rolls-Royce'. Relocating to Scotland once more, the Estate Bus was photographed outside the famous Skibo Castle in Caithness during 1997. Entering the current family ownership via Christies some eleven years ago, chassis 89RM underwent circa £47,000 worth of cosmetic and mechanical fettling between July 2004 and August 2005. Carried out by Ashton Keynes Restorations, the work included attention to the coachwork, gearbox, brakes and suspension etc. Kept garaged, maintained and regularly MOT tested, the fourteen-seater is felt to be in `fair to good overall' condition. Pleasingly retaining its original engine, this singularly imposing Silver Ghost is currently employed as a Shooting Brake on the vendor's estate. H&H are indebted to Mr John Fasal for his assistance in the preparation of this catalogue description.
