Add to basketThe three items of ephemera are in good condition, lightly aged. ONE: Circular headed 'SHAKESPEARE MEMORIAL THEATRE / STRATFORD-UPON-AVON / ENDOWMENT FUND.' Dated 1 November 1923, and with autograph signature (possibly by proxy) of 'H C Lacey' ('Organising Secretary | H. C. LACEY M.B.E.'). Shakespeare's coat of arms printed in r…ed ink at top right. Begins with the debatable assertion: 'Many men and women have given great gifts to our Nation - inventions, discoveries, territory, and creations of literature and art - but the greatest of all is the glorious inheritance bequeathed to humanity by William Shakespeare.' Continues in the same pretentious vein before describing the 'reproach that the Library, Sculpture and Art Gallery, Reading Room and Lecture Hall at Stratford-upon-Avon, is unable to complete its catalogue, maintain a librarian, or fully develop its educational facilities owing to lack of funds. / The entire Press of the English-speaking world, the leaders of Politics, Art, Drama, Literature, and Society, the Lord Mayor of London and the Mayors of the principal cities and towns warmly endorse the appeal of the Governors of the Memorial for funds to enable the intentions of the Founders to be fully realised. / To this end November 8th. is to be observed as National Shakespeare Day. Each district, city and town has been asked to raise its quota. There will be no street collections, prize schemes, or ballots, but just this appeal to those who value the "Common Heritage" to send a subscription, be it large or small, one shilling or hundreds of shillings, one pound or hundreds of pounds to the Shakespeare Memorial Endowment Fund.' Ends with reference to 'our greatest [sic] National Bard'. TWO: Printed advertisement for 'National Shakespeare Day Appeal / for Tribute to Shakespeare / TO ENDOW THE MEMORIAL THEATRE, LIBRARY, / READING ROOM, ART GALLERY, AND LECTURE ROOM / Erected in the Poet's Memory in Stratford-upon-Avon, the Town of his Birth.' Titled on front cover (with black and white illustration of rural scene) 'OUR "COMMON HERITAGE." / THE SHAKESPEARE MEMORIAL THEATRE, / STRATFORD-UPON-AVON.' 4pp, landscape 16mo. Bifolium. Middle two pages describe 'The Appeal in Brief' in small print: 'The Hope', 'The Measure of Realisation', 'The Great Need'. At end: 'Will you pay tribute?' List of 'Patrons, Governors, Hon. Governors, and Life Members' on last page, with quotation from The Times, 23 April 1923. Enclosed is THREE: A 'Donation & Subscription Form' on one side of single 16mo leaf of browned paper. Headed 'NOVEMBER 8th. 1623. / Publication of the First Folio of / SHAKESPEARE'S PLAYS. / His Glorious Gift to Humanity.' The entry in the Oxford DNB for its director Bridges-Adams reminds us that 'On 6 March 1926 the Memorial Theatre was burnt down, greatly to the relief of G. B. Shaw.'.

Add to basketThree scarce items, with no other copies traced. All three carry the Club's badge. The 1929 menu is in good condition; the other two items are in fair condition, lightly aged and worn. The two 'Christmas Supper' menus are uniform in layout. Each is printed on an 8vo piece of white card, with the same photograph of 'J. Windsor Bu…rgess as Father Christmas' on one side and the menu on the other. (The menus differ and are dated.) Each menu is wrapped in a grey-paper 8vo bifolium, printed on all four sides. The Menu for 19 December 1927 states on the cover: 'J. H. Brocklehurst, Esq. President, in the Chair'. In the menu of 16 December 1929 the President is A. C. Wilson. The other three pages of the wraps carry the order of the 'Music and Observances', printing the texts of songs including 'The Boar's Head Song' and Walter Emsley's 'Here's to his Health'. The third item is an invitation (1p, 8vo) on card to the 'Complimentary Supper to Prof. F. E. Weiss, D.Sc., F.R.S., F.L.S. (Professor of Botany at The University, Manchester.)', on 5 March 1928. The toast is given by Brocklehurst as President, J. Cuming Walters (from whose collection the material derives) and Councillor C. W. Godbert'.

Matted and framed with three images of items from the Forbes Magazine Collection of Faberge, with presentation slips from the publisher presenting the recipient William J.P. Smith III of Data General…Corporation with a complimentary subscription to Forbes. This was purchased directly from Bill Smith, who worked as an advertising representative, and explained that he received this invitation as a result of his professional relationship with Forbes Magazine. Dated May 4, 1979, the full text of the letter reads: "Dear Bill: A selection of Faberge objects from the FORBES Magazine Collection is currently on loan to the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. The exhibition marks the first public showing in this country of Faberge's masterpieces, the Coronation Egg and the Lilies of the Valley Egg, which have just been added to the collection. To help us celebrate this exciting event, I am writing in the hope that you and Ann will be able to join Jim Dunn, Kip Forbes, Steve Nicoll, Arnold Prives and me for dinner and a private viewing of the exhibition on Wednesday, May 23rd. Cocktails and the viewing will begin at 6:00 P.M. Dinner will be served in the Asian Galleries at 7:30 P.M. Enter the museum at the Huntington Avenue entrance. Supervised parking will be available in the museum lot on Museum Road. Yours sincerely, Malcolm S. Forbes." The second letter reads: "Dear Bill: Thank you so much for that fascinating data, and we'll probably be making reference to it in FORBES. It was a pleasure to see you at the Faberge show in Boston - the only greater joy would be in seeing you put the advertising pages of FORBES to work on occasion for Data General! Cordially, Malcolm S. Forbes. Signed by author.

Add to basketFrom the Macqueen-Pope papers. (See his entry in the Oxford DNB.) Interesting London ephemera: the plans for the Refectory Club were clearly ambitious, but there is little to be gleaned about it, and it is unclear whether it even opened. Zinkeisen and her sister Dora are the subject of a 2022 monograph by Philip Kelleway, Emma R…oodhouse and Nicola Evans. The four items in good condition, lightly aged, but with rust staining from a paperclip. Folded for postage.

We shall, of course be honoured to accept you but regret that we must ask you to apply formally for membership on the enclosed application form. After you have completed this, we should be grateful if you would forward it to Mr. Nathan for proposal.' Information regarding fees follows. TWO: Illustrated Printed stapled publicity booklet. 7pp, 16mo. With three photographs of interiors (Dining Hall, Lounge and Common Room), together with reproduction of drawing of the Dining Hall on the cover. 'The mediaeval Dining Hall is architecturally unique with its finely vaulted ceiling, supported by columns and pilasters of the utmost delicacy. / Curved wall panels provide the perfect setting for exquisite murals by Miss Anna Zinkeisen. The distinguished artist has captured the atmosphere of the period and portrayed it ith touches of subtle humour and gaiety. [.] The Lounge, pannelled in oak, with rich period furnishings, is a pleasing combination of things old and new. The old has been made to serve again in an unusual, recessed, long bar. / The pine-pannelled Common Room, dominated by a fine old refectory table, is reserved for private dinner parties. [.]' The architect is named as H. Hubbard Ford, the 'Decor' is by Dickeson & French Ltd, and the murals are by 'Miss Anna Zinkeisen'. THREE: Notice, printed in red. 1p, 12mo. Headed 'The Refectory Club. / The Club will be open to Members on and after 3rd May, 1955.' Gives details of opening hours, bar hours and restaurant hours, and of membership fees.

Begins: 'The prolongation of the War during the past academical year (1917-1918) has postponed for a while the hope of a revival of the happier, more tranquil state of normal times.' Later: 'For the moment, however, the Provost, a single Tutor, a Treasurer and less than a handful of Fellows, fourteen Undergraduates, and a small remnants of servants dwell in, or use, some of the rooms in the Front and Back Quadrangles, while a Principal, Tutors, Bursar, and students of the other sex retain in their large numbers their temporary occupation of the new and older buildings of St. Mary's Quadrangle.'

Begins: 'The numbers were slightly lower than in the previous year.'

Schemes for further improvements are under consideration.' FOUR: Handbill prospectus for 'The Provosts and Fellows of Oriel College Oxford' of Richards and Shadwell. Basil Blackwell, Oxford.
