Rimward from here, There be Dragons! No star chart or encyclopedia tells us what lies beyond, only whispered tales of scouts and pirates provide us myth-inspired answers. The Twilight Sector lies on the edge of the edge. What has been found here is a wonder. Earth! Or at least an exact copy. A beautiful blue-green ball of cosmic habitat that resembles the mother planet down to the shape of its continents. A mere quarter of the sector has already yielded two class one worlds, Precursor ruins and so much new territory you could spend a lifetime unlocking its secrets. What lies in the rest of the sector? More Precursor ruins? Perhaps, finally, first contact with an alien race? Will you be one of the bold explorers that chart the sea of stars. …

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'.…
