ONE: Typed article titled 'The Other Tyrone Power / by / W. Macqueen-Pope.' Undated. 11pp, 4to, paginated 1-9, with two-page 'Inset'. With a few minor autograph emendations. Begins: 'A…t the present moment, Mr Tyrone Power, "in person", is appearing at the London Coliseum in a play called "Mr Roberts". [.] The fact is that there was another Tyrone Power, who was a very celebrated actor indeed in his time.' TWO: Another copy of Item One, but without any autograph emendations. THREE: Page proof of MP's article, stamped '19 AUG 1950 / EVERYBODY'S'. 1p, folio, with small square of paper with additional text attached at foot, and proof of a cartoon titled 'Ferrier's Searchlight (critical of Noel Coward's play 'Ace of Clubs'). FOUR: TLS to MP from Sidney Gordon, Features Editor. 1p, small 4to. He informs him that the editor 'Mr Poke' (Greville Poke, 1912-2000, who also has an Oxford DNB entry) 'would very much like to go ahead with it. / It would certainly tie-up with "Mister Roberts" and perhaps you would send the MS in to us as soon possible'. FIVE: Carbon of TL from MP to 'Mr. Gordon', 28 July 1950. He is enclosing the article, with suggestions for illustrations, including photos of the film star by Angus McBean. SIX: Typed acknowledgement of receipt of article 'The other Tyrone Power'. On printed envelope addressed to 'Macqueen Pope, Esquire., / 359 Strand, / W.C.2.' 1p, 12mo. SEVEN: Carbon of Typed Letter from MP to'Mrs Guthrie'. 3 October 1950. 1p, 4to.

He discusses the colour of Power's hair before concluding 'I know Mr Tyrone Guthrie but never knew of his connection with Power.' Postscript: 'Besides my work in the Theatre and at Drury Lane, I am a theatre historian with a fair amount of books to my credit.'.

Add to basketFrom the Macqueen-Pope papers. See his entry, and that of Brooke, in the Oxford DNB. The five items are in good condition, lightly aged and worn. ONE: Carbon of Typed Article titled 'London Was Unlucky to Him / The Story of Gustavus Brooke, The Tragic Tragedian'. 11pp, 4to, on eleven leaves. Begins: There is nothing so ephemeral… as the art of the actor. Very very few of the names live on. Yet there are some, who in their day were of the first magnitude and are now forgotten, save for the delving historian. That is a pity, for many of them deserve a niche in Fame and such a one was Gustavus Vaughan Brooke, the Tragic Tragedian. His life was one long exciting adventure of triumph and disaster. [.] He was one of the great ones of the early nineteenth century. His life ad his career resembled that of Edmund Kean.' TWO: Carbon of (apparently earlier) draft of article. 11pp, 4to. No changes to text are apparent, but the layout is different. THREE: Another carbon of Item Two. FOUR: Carbon of TL from MP to the editor of 'Everybody's' Greville Poke (also see his entry in the Oxford DNB). 13 July 1950. He is sending 'the story of Gustavus Brooke. I know it is a little long but, believe me, it is a great story.' He has 'plenty of illustrations'. Elsewhere he writes that he is 'rather sorry' Poke did not like his 'suggestion concerning the musical comedy situation because this turned out to be what I think is one of the best articles I have ever written. I sold it elsewhere at once'. FIVE: TNS written on behalf of the editor of 'Everybody's' magazine, Greville Poke (also see his entry in the Oxford DNB), on the magazine's letterhead, 14 July 1950. 1p, 4to. Signed 'for Greville / WS'. Reads: 'My dear Popie, / Thanks for sending along the manuscript of GUSTAVUS BROOKE. I shall be getting into this in the near future, I hope.'.

Add to basket4pp., 4to. Bifolium. Good, on lightly-aged paper. Addressed on the reverse of the second leaf to 'T: P: Cooke Esqre | Royal Coburg Theatre', with two postmarks. The two men do not appear to have been related. TSC requests TPC's 'friendly interference to endeavour at getting from Mr. Chilvers music copyist to the Coburg Theatre a… Symphony which he got from me two months since under a promise to let me have it copied in six days.' TSC states 'I have been seriously injured (and am unlikely to be more so) in my profession for want of it, as it is a work of much labour and I have been compelled to repeatedly disappoint those to whom its perusal was to be submitted for their approval of my qualifications for a situation of considerable import to me-'. He has 'time after time allowed sufficient scope to avoid interference' with Chilvers' 'duty to the Theatre But in fact he trifles with me beyond all endurance, and what is worse has made me appear to do so with others who have it in their power much to serve me.' He continues to complain of Chilvers' 'shameful neglect', and requests from TPC 'all the convenient dispatch in this affair in your power'. Accompanying the letter is an original engraved portrait by Thomson from Burgess of 'MR. T. COOKE, AS CARLOS.', published in 1818 by Simpkin & Marshall. It is lightly spotted, but otherwise in good condition on a 12mo leaf.

Add to basket6pp., 4to, good condition, IN IRISH, translation as follows: "(On top) Write to me soon! ||Deirdre, my dear friend I was delighted to receive your letter. Thank you very much. Forgive me for not writing much earlier: we are all greatly upset here over the deaths of Arthur Griffith and Michael Collins isn't it terrible news! I ca…nnot believe it is true I don't know what the country will do without them. It disgusts me to think of Michael Collinsand the way they killed him like a dog; a curse on them, may they choke, the dirty villains! He was a fine man; I saw the account your brother Roibeárd [Robert Lynd] wrote about him in the Daily News did you see it? I feel proud that Richard Mulcahy will be taking his place; I think he is a good man: do you know him? But look, I get very angry when I think about it I hope the other side is satisfied now. Do you know there is an Irish woman here and she is strongly on the side of De Valera; I don't have to tell you she has not set a foot on the land of Ireland since she was a small girl and I suppose she is afraid that she will not be 'Irish enough' if she is on the side of the Free State she's another Erskine Childers, my dear. She told Máire O'Keefe that Harry Boland had been murdered she heard it from some priest: did you hear anything about that? 'And isn't it a terrible thing that they didn't have an inquest'. 'Terrible altogether,' said Máire' 'it's strange that his own people did not ask for one. Cathal Brugha had one'. I was sorry about the death of Harry Boland all the same, he was a nice boy. But did you hear that they murdered him? I think it is only a rumour. About Paris I am sad to say and it grieves my heart to tell you that I don't think that I will be able to come. I am in a rage about it, but what can I do? I have no money saved or anything; apart from this I would be able to come, and I would love it. Oh, why can't I? Alas! It makes me angry! And to think that you and Lucie will be there without me. I would like to kill myself when I think of it. But listen I have a strong intention if I can to save some money; I would like to come home for a short while to Dublin anyway maybe in the Autumn. You see, I could stay in London for a short while and sell pictures there, and then put in three weeks or so in Dublin. Wouldn't this be nice ? I am working at present on a couple of book covers for Hodder and Stoughton and I hope to get more work from them they give good money although I do not like the work much. But one must live! By the way . The Swiss who are a lot of contemptibles. I don't think much of them they are *** (unclear word), stupid, mean, frigid, misunderstanding [used by him as an adjective here], fat etc., etc., etc.! Of course I'd like a change if possible. But I must wait. There are many Irish here and we drink tea together nearly every day and we are continually talking of Ireland. We're all Free-Staters .[He finishes with] Sunday: Dublin Monday: Sevilla Wednesday: Howth Thursday: Taormina (?) ETC. ETC". Maire Gaster has written a note on the original envelope identifying the recipient and revealing Mac Liamoir's passion for her.
