Journalist (1855-1931), editor of Vanity Fair, 1889-1904. One page, quarto. Very good, if a little dusty. Docketed and bearing R.S.A. stamp. There is 'no apparent chance' of F. V. Brookes delivering his 'promised lecture' at the R.S.A. 'Of course I would be willing if necessary to read this paper for my old friend; but [.] I would very strongly urge that it would be better in every way to postpone this lecture for some time. Its subject is one that is peculiarly Mr. Brooks's own, and I think no one else would deal with it so well.' Signed 'Oliver A. Fry'.

12mo, 1 p. On first leaf of a bifolium. Text clear and complete. Fair, on aged paper. In reply to the recipient's note, by which he is 'much worried', Fry does not know that he can offer him 'any more than the few short notes for us in "Men & Women of the Times". Little is known about Fry, apart from the fact that he was born in Van Diemen's Land, the son of the Church of England clergyman Henry Phibbs Fry (c.1807-1874).

The three items, all in manuscript, are in good condition, on lightly-aged paper. All three are folded into the usual packets, with the two items by the accountants each titled in manuscript on the outside. Item One (Gibson's report): 'Report to accompany the Accounts of "Vanity Fair" for the six months ending 30th. Septr. 1880'. In Bowles's autograph, and signed by him at the foot, 'Thos. G. Bowles | 10 Novr 1880'. 1p., foolscap 8vo. As 'Managing Partner' Bowles reports an 'increase of the value of the property which has been particularly marked during the past half year', and describes increases in income, expenditure and net profit compared with the previous year. He sets out proposals, 'with the concurrence of his co-partners', and calls a 'half-yearly meeting' on 15 December 1880, at 2 Bolton Street, Piccadilly. Item Two (balance sheet by Masson & Lewis): '"Vanity Fair" | Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account for the half year ending 30 September 1880 | Masson & Lewis | Accountants | 27 Leadenhall Street'. 6pp., foolscap 8vo. Neatly laid out in manuscript, on two half-sheets sewn together with green thread. The balance sheet and profit and loss account are both double-page spreads, and there are also single pages on 'Creditors' and 'Stock on Hand'. The document gives full details of the interest of Bowles and his three named 'co-partners', with itemised costs (for such items as 'Cartoons. Drawing' and 'Lithography & Paper') and expenses (beginning with 'Managing Partners Salary' and 'Office Salaries & Wages'). The section on 'Sales' includes break-downs for Numbers, Volumes, Albums, Titles, Cases & Portfolios, Binding, Proofs, Doublets, Waste Paper. 'Advertisements' bring in £2200 10s 9d. Item Three (comparative statement by Masson & Lewis): 1p., landscape folio (31.5 x 40.5cm). The document has eight columns giving the half-year and whole-year income and expenditures, with increases and decreases. Income comprises 'Sales' (broken down into eight entries), 'Books sent for Review sold', 'Waste Paper' and 'Advertisements', and expenditure comprises 'Cartoons: - Drawing', 'Cartoons: - Lithography & paper', 'Contributions', 'Paper for Letterpress', 'Printing', 'Binding & making cases', 'Doublets', 'Discount on Sales & Adverts', 'Expenses & depreciation', 'Bad Debt a/c'. The three items derive from the papers of one of Bowles's three 'co-partners', Major-General Roberts.
