Seller: Cat's Curiosities, Pahrump, NV, U.S.A.
Book First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. No Jacket. Illustrations by Lorraine Gill (The City and Guilds of London Art School) / Front cover illustration "The Lord Mayor's Procession Passing the Mansion House," 1844 (illustrator). 1st Edition. Booklet with white plastic comb binding. Many of the seafood recipes are, of course, from the Worshipful Company of Fishmongers. The egg mousse recipe, however, is from Mr. A.J. Balcombe, Master of the Worshipful Company of Tin-Plate Workers. The Drapers, the Barbers, and the Plumbers are also heard from in turn, though the recipe for Filet of Beef Wellington (a bit heavy on the bacon for our taste, though she does note liver pate can be substituted) is from Mrs. Ralph M. Snagge. (Pamela Scrimgeour, 1913-2004, as most of us surely know, married Ralph Mordaunt Snagge (1911-2001), son of Sir Mordaunt Snagge, at London in 1938. And no, none of these people were characters in a Harry Potter novel.) Heavy on the desserts, of course (including Sherry Hedgehog, though lamentably no mention of Spotted Dick.) No, we cannot explain the spellings "Bortsch" or "Spinach Roularde." We also reluctantly conclude Mr. George Vine, Master of the Worshipful Company of Clockmakers, was not pulling Lady Heap's leg when he submitted with a straight face his recipe for "Greek Moussaka a L'Anglaise," entirely lacking bechamel and substituting "young cabbage" for eggplant. Young. Cabbage. 121 pp. including Index. (Our prix est fixe.).
Published by 1 June With printed details of The "Silver Thimble" Fund its Wimbledon address deleted and replaced by Wilbraham s: 26 Lower Sloane Street SW1 London, 1918
Manuscript / Paper Collectible
An evocative artefact of one of the most successful British charities of the Great War. The Silver Thimble Fund was founded by Hope Elizabeth Hope Clarke of Wimbledon in 1915, and run from her house. Damaged trinkets made of precious metals, including 60,000 silver thimbles, were collected and melted down, paying for fifteen ambulances for the front and other medical transportation and equipment. The recipient is Mrs. Evelyn Julia Allan, listed in 1918 in the London Gazette as Honorary Secretary, Chelsea Division, British Red Cross. Wilbraham writes on both sides of an unillustrated postcard, whose letterhead names her as President, and Hope Clarke as Founder and Organiser . Worn and creased. Folded three times, with small closed tear to vertical fold at foot. The postcard is not made out with the recipient s address. Wilbraham s voice comes across very clearly in the hurried message: Dear Miss Allan / How too kind of you, and also a cheque, it is most noble of you. And I cannot thank you enough. I enclose a paper of our sale next week, which I hope you will be able to come to. Yes times are too depressing, if only one could see day light any where. How splendid your Red X sale has been. With renewed most grateful thanks / Yrs sincerely / Maud B Wilbraham .

Manuscript / Paper Collectible
According to her entry in the Oxford DNB: ' Also in 1941 she embarked upon what became the most substantial public work she ever undertook when she became chairman of the Red Cross Aid to Russia Fund. Of the £9,000,000 collected in Britain to help the USSR, Mrs Churchill's Fund , as it was popularly known, raised £6,700,000. In March May 1945, at the invitation of the Russian Red Cross, she visited Russia to inspect many of the institutions equipped or otherwise helped by her fund. She travelled widely in the Soviet Union, was received by Stalin, and was awarded the order of the Red Banner of Labour. As Winston told her in a telegram on 2 April, 'at the moment you are the one bright spot in Anglo-Russian relations' (Speaking for Themselves, 521). At home, in recognition of her work for the Russian Fund and her other services, she was appointed GBE in the victory honours list.' 2pp, 4to. In fair condition, lightly aged, with light staining to one corner. A good facsimile of a twenty-three line autograph letter. Reads: Dear Sir, / I send you my warmest thanks for your generous contribution to my "Aid to Russia" Fund. / I have been deeply touched by the splendid response to my broadcast appeal. Cheques & postal orders & Treasury notes are reaching me in sackfuls, & I only regret that it is impossible for me to reply adequately to every kind letter that accompanies them. / But believe me, I am deeply appreciative of the gifts & letters that have reached me from you and thousands like you. Your contributions will enable the Red Cross to send off substantial supplies of the drugs & surgical equipment of which our Russian Allies are urgently in need. / Yours sincerely / Clementine S. Churchill .
