SIGNAC PAUL: (1863-1935) French Neo-Impressionist Painter. A very fine A.L.S., P Signac, one page, 4to, n.p., n.d., to a friend, in French. Signac asks his correspondent to forward his initial message to a lady showing the care taken on this matter, and states in part `Je vous copie la réponse de lelong, communiquez-la à Blanche pour lui montrer qu´on s´est occupé de son ptotégé: "Votre lettre en main, dites à Blanche que les Comités Suresnois n´autorisent plus les patrons à pratiquer eux-mêmes l´embauche du personnel ouvrier - Les contre-maitres sont seuls qualifiés pour cela et il suffit qu´on leur recommande quelqu´un pour qu´ils l´évincent avant toute audition - Deux pays, comme dit Forain. L´an prochain les ouvriers éliront leurs patrons!!!"´ (Translation: "I will copy you lelong's response, forward it to Blanche to show her that we have taken care of her ptotégé: "Your letter in hand, tell Blanche that the Suresnois Committees no longer authorize the bosses to choose the workers - The foremen are the only ones qualified for this and it is enough that someone is recommended to them for them to oust him before any hearing - Two countries, as Forain says. Next year the workers will elect their bosses!!!") Further Signac refers to his stay in Cannes, saying `Je reviens de Cannes, où malgré de savants virages, je n´ai pu mener à la gloire le canot automobile d´un ami... un sacré clavetage ayant claqué au moment, ou par forte mer, nous étions en train de noyer nos concurrents...´ (Translation: "I have just returned from Cannes, where despite clever turns, I was unable to lead a friend's motorboat to glory... a hell of a key having slammed at the time, where in rough seas, we were in the process of drowning our competitors...")

Registration No: BP 217 Chassis No: 6006 MOT: ExemptEntered from a large private collectionCoil / magneto ignition, conventional pedals, uprated transmission, improved fueling and cooling systems etcElegant four-seater coachwork with canopy topA proven and well developed 'London to Brighton' runnerA successful entrepreneur and intrepid adventurer, G. Adolphe Clement progressed from making bicycles through to cars, airships and aeroplanes as well as participating in numerous of the earliest inter-city and inter-country automobile races. Instrumental in the survival of Panhard et Levassor and the establishment of Austin and Talbot, autumn 1903 saw him sign away the commercial rights to his surname with the sale of Clement-Gladiator and found a new marque, Bayard (albeit ‘Constructeur A. Clement’ appeared prominently on the nascent concern’s vehicles and in any associated literature). The ‘Bayard’ name was a tribute to the Chevalier who had saved the town of Mezieres – site of one of Clement’s factories – from the Duc de Nassau in 1521. The irrepressible industrialist later changed his surname to Clement-Bayard and indeed the first airship to cross The English Channel was Clement-Bayard II. A ‘Voiture Legere’ manufacturer, Bayard used far fewer proprietary components than many of its peers and soon became synonymous with advanced design. Announced in October 1903, the Bayard AC2K (Adolphe Clement) model featured a pressed steel, channel-section chassis, semi-elliptic leaf-sprung suspension, expanding rear wheel brakes and shaft drive to a bevel axle. Cooled by a gilled, tube type radiator slung ahead of the hollow front axle, the sophisticated twin-cylinder 1.6-litre T-head engine boasted an automatic carburettor, water pump, coil / magneto ignition, dual camshafts, interchangeable valves and exhaust pressure-fed lubrication. Operated by a right-hand quadrant change mounted alongside the transmission brake lever, the gearbox contained three forward speeds and a reverse gear. Available in bare chassis guise, customers had the option of paying a modest supplement for handsome factory Rear Entrance Tonneau coachwork. Reputedly capable of over 30mph and praised for its reliability, speed and hill-climbing, the Bayard AC2K was also marketed in England as the Talbot CT2K (Clement Talbot). Information held at the Contemporary Archive Centre in Fontainebleau, France indicates that 1904 Bayard (Clement-Bayard) chassis numbers ran from 6003 to 6303. First UK road registered in West Sussex or so its ‘BP 217’ registration number would imply, chassis 6006 has previously been dated by the Veteran Car Club of Great Britain to 1904 under Certificate Number 1627. Seemingly highly original and thus covered in ‘A. Clement’ detailing from the dashboard-mounted oiler through to its sump plate, hubcaps, side / rear ‘AC’ treadplates and kickplates, the four-seater sports genuine chassis, engine and carrosserie plaques (the latter for body number 2520). Extensively restored whilst in the care of renowned, West Country collector Leslie Thomas Esq., he is understood to have added such niceties as a starter motor, throttle pedal, battery cut-off, windscreen wiper and cooling fan etc not to mention thoroughly overhauling the mechanicals and cosmetics. Subsequently belonging to Paul Tillion Esq, ‘BP 217’ entered the current family ownership in 2011. A multiple participant, and finisher, on the London to Brighton Run, the Rear Entrance Tonneau has lain idle as part of a large private collection in recent years. As such, it will require recommissioning prior to road use (albeit the engine turns freely). Again thanks to Mr Thomas’s ingenuity, the windscreen folds up into a recess within the canopy roof which in turn can be lowered to facilitate transport. It is thought that just eight ‘2K’ cars (be they badged as Bayard, Clement-Bayard, Clement-Talbot or Talbot) are known to the VCC. Surely worthy of a place in another collection, this appealing Veteran has much to recommend it. For more information, please contact: Damian Jones damian.jones@handh.co.uk 07855 493737
Registration No: BF 4385 Chassis No: 16/2639/20 MOT: ExemptSupplied new to Lady Sara Campbell, the second daughter of ex-pat New Zealand runholder, politician and racehorse owner William 'Ready Money' RobinsonRepatriated to the UK during 2007Treated to over £100,000 worth of renovation and improvement work by renowned specialists McKenzie Guppy since entering the current ownership in 2015An exceptional Vintage example of a well-regarded Edwardian designHaving cut his teeth at De Dion-Bouton, Clement, Panhard et Levassor, Humber and Hillman, Louis Coatelen joined Sunbeam in February 1909. A keen advocate of the ‘Race on Sunday, Sell on Monday’ philosophy, his first design for the Wolverhampton marque – the 14/20 - distinguished itself on the 1909 RAC ‘Ten Pound Note’ Trial (averaging 21.3mpg over the 100-mile road section and 56.65mph around Brooklands) and the 1909 Scottish Six Days’ Trial (finishing 2nd-in-class). Sharing Henry Royce’s aversion to proprietary parts, Coatelen ensured that ‘his’ Sunbeams were soon renowned for the quality and innovative nature of their engineering. Introduced in 1910, the 12/16 model gained a larger 3016cc four-cylinder monobloc engine the following October. Hailed as a class leader thanks to its sump-mounted oil pump, shaft drive, four-speed manual gearbox and efficient rear-wheel brakes, the newcomer could be had with open or closed coachwork. Proving a redoubtable staff car during World War One (with Rover building a version under licence), the 12/16 evolved into the Sixteen when hostilities ceased. A strong seller despite its lofty price tag, approximately 2,050 were made. Selected by the Automobile Association to evaluate the relative merits of benzol in 1919, a Sunbeam Sixteen thus fuelled covered 10,000 miles over sixty-two days (averaging 24.57mpg). Stripped after testing, its engine showed no appreciable signs of wear. Afterwards the car was sold to a gentleman in Wiltshire who wrote to the factory some five years later to inform them that it had covered 100,000 miles with minimal attention and never let him down! According to its accompanying 1920s registration certificate, chassis 16/2639/20 was supplied new to Lady Sara Campbell, the second daughter of ex-pat New Zealand runholder, politician and racehorse owner William 'Ready Money' Robinson. Correspondence on file records that Lady Campbell kept the Sunbeam until her death in 1927 whereupon it passed through the hands of J. Brown, F. Tozer and H.L. Boyd before being acquired in a dilapidated state by J.B. Loughnan during 1960. He got as far as commissioning a new aluminium body but the restoration was completed by Dudley Kitson who took possession in 1982 and subsequently used the Sixteen on a number of South Island Rallies (clocking up c.3,000 miles per event). Imported to the UK around 2007, the Tourer formed part of a small Sunbeam collection prior to entering the current ownership in 2015. Despite having undertaken numerous Club tours to Ireland, Wales and Yorkshire, the vendor found ‘BF 4385’ to be subpar mechanically and so entrusted it to McKenzie Guppy. Although better known for their work on WO Bentleys and pre-WW2 Rolls-Royces, the Dorset-based engineering firm were more than up to fettling the engine, gearbox, clutch, steering, front / rear axles, suspension, fuel system and electrical equipment etc (bills amassed during 2015-2016 total some £96,000). Treated to a further £12,000 worth of expenditure in 2022, it is hard to imagine that there is a better sorted Sixteen extant? Fitted with hood, sidescreens and an Auster screen, this elegant Vintage Tourer is deemed by the seller as being in ‘good’ (interior trim, paintwork), ‘very good’ (bodywork) or ‘excellent’ (engine, gearbox, electrical equipment) condition. Offered for sale with history file containing correspondence, assorted MOTs, copy instruction book and copy spares listing.

Registration No: YT 8613 Chassis No: LC 162 MOT: ExemptRegularly campaigned at a number of VSCC and MRL racing events where it was highly competitiveWon third place in the 2019 Goodwood Members' Meeting John Duff TrophyThree Litre chassis that is fitted with a ‘race-prepared’ 4 1/2 Litre Meadows power unitFitted with an ENV 150 Pre-Selector Gearbox and upgraded differential and half shafts to handle the powerSupplied with a large history file with stacks of receipts for works and correspondence including a buff logbook showing ownership from 1955Noel Campbell Macklin started the Invicta Car Company in 1925 and although it became one of Britain's classic sports cars his original aim was to build a car in which changing gears would become virtually unnecessary. Production continued until 1933 in Cobham, whereupon it moved to Chelsea until the outbreak of war, with its last four years being spent back in Surrey at Virginia Water.The fledgling firm initially built six prototypes that coupled a two-litre, six-cylinder Coventry Simplex engine together with a four-speed gearbox in a Bayliss-Thomas chassis and these were found to perform very satisfactorily. The press launch showed that it could go from a standing start in top gear up the steep Guildford High Street but unfortunately, all six engines were ruined when they were left without antifreeze during a cold spell meaning it was back to the drawing board and Henry Meadows was approached for one of the six-cylinder, overhead valve power units that had established an enviable reputation for durability.The first production model was fitted with a 2,692cc Meadows unit and was named the 2½ Litre in SC (Short Chassis) and LC (Long Chassis) forms to suit the customers' choice of body style - however soon Macklin was in search of more power. With Invicta in mind, Meadows devised a new 2,973cc unit for the new Invicta 3-Litre which was introduced for 1926. Flexibility was of prime importance to Macklin and the 3-Litre could be accelerated from virtually walking pace to its 70mph-plus maximum in top gear.It was during 1926 that Macklin's sister-in-law, the 25-year-old Violet Cordery, undertook a number of long-distance journeys which included taking a team to Monza where they captured World records for 10,000 and 15,000 miles and then in another outing covered 5,000 miles at Brooklands at an average speed of more than 70mph. They won the Dewar Trophy for Invicta, which was presented by the Royal Automobile Club, and in 1929 she won it for the second time with a Brooklands' run of 30,000 miles in 30,000 minutes. Quite a lady that did wonders for cementing the marque's sporting status.In late 1928, the Meadows block and head were redesigned with the bores equally spaced and therefore no longer in line with the crank pins. This permitted a bore of 88.5mm giving 4467cc and this unit was fitted to the new-for-1929 Invicta 4½ Litre 'NLC' and 'A-Type' models and went on to be fitted to the famous 'S-Type' Low Chassis models which are considered to be one of the most desirable pre-war British cars of all time. The 4½ Litre engine unit had a power rating of up to 180bhp as standard, giving a rough top speed of 95mph, however many of these units have been highly developed for racing and can deliver in excess of 200bhp when used in anger.First registered on the 2nd September 1927, 'YT 8613' was originally built as a 3-Litre, Long Chassis Invicta. The early Invicta records are believed to have been destroyed during the Blitz, so therefore little is known of the original body style of the car. The first record we have on file for the ownership of the Invicta is from 1955 with a continuation buff log book, when the car was owned by a Mr Raymond J. Menday of Dartford, Kent, and the engine number stated at that time was '6566'. At some point in the car's history, 'YT 8613' was fitted with the Meadows 4½ Litre unit numbered '8526' plus an ENV-150 Pre-Selector gearbox and an angled bulkhead which were believed to have only been fitted to 4½ Litres and S-Types rather than the flat example used in the 3 Litre. Interestingly, a very small number of late 3-Litre cars were reputedly modified to 4½ Litre specification by Dolphens & Lenarts for the Metropolitan Police Flying Squad based out of Scotland Yard, so this car could well be one of those examples.The vendor, who is a repeat Invicta owner, bought LC 162 in 1995 from a Mr Rides of Weston Super Mare who had owned the car since 1988. Upon acquisition, the plan was to upgrade most of the componentry in order to race the car at VSCC events. On file there are masses of receipts on file for various works, including for preparation to race specification at over £35,000. The vendor has subsequently used the car for a huge number of race meetings in the VSCC and Motor Racing Legends events over the years, where the car was proved very competitive with a number of podium positions and overall wins throughout the years. The car was also invited to the Goodwood member's meeting in April 2019 - proving its eligibility for those types of events. The vendor has now decided to sell the car as the chance acquisition of a Low Chassis 'S-Type' recently presented itself - and this car is now seeing more use on the track. It is therefore now a fantastic opportunity for any aspiring racer to acquire a very interesting and genuinely fast vehicle for use either on the road or the track.Upon inspection, 'YT 8613' presents as a well-used, but delightfully patinated racing car. The vendor advises that he has "corrected major issues with the bodywork as they have cropped up, but not to expect a concours queen - this is a working track car". The car is bodied as a Four-Seater tourer with a pleasantly aged Cream Leather interior and it is believed that the front and rear wings are original to the car. A long-range petrol tank has been mounted to the rear of the body with an electric SU pump providing supply to the carburettors. Mechanically, the seller has stated that the ongoing maintenance has been "top-notch" so everything works as intended and that driving the car is "hilarious" thanks to over 200bhp on tap from the thunderous Meadows power unit. The pre-selector gearbox also provides a instant gear change and is pleasurable to work without the frustration of grinding gears - although with the incredible amount of torque supplied, constant changing may not be entirely necessary and is therefore pleasurable to use on the road (for which the car is fully registered!).Eligible for a number of racing events including the Le Mans Classic and a rare example of the exclusive Invicta marque, 'YT 8613' is a wonderful opportunity for any prospective owner who wants to get the most from their car.

Registration No: CBU 698B Chassis No: 2303042 MOT: ExemptSubject to an extensive restoration in current ownershipConverted to right-hand driveOffered with a collection of restoration photosCurrent V5C documentA rare sight on UK roadsPanhard was among the earliest automobile producers and, by some criteria, the first volume car producer in the world, back in 1890. The Panhard 24 is a compact two-door coupé produced between 1964 and 1967 by the French manufacturer. It was powered by a front-mounted air-cooled two-cylinder boxer motor: the basic design of this unconventional engine dated back to the 1940s. Also familiar from a succession of post-war Panhard saloons was the four-speed all-synchromesh gearbox and the front-wheel-drive configuration. The wheels were independently suspended with telescopic shock absorbers and a torsion bar for the rear axle. Although the 24 had no Panhard badged successor, a number of the features of the Citroën GS which appeared (after an unusually long gestation period) in 1970 respected Panhard traditions. The Panhard 24 may be thought of as the swan song of Panhard car production.This Panhard 24CT 2 door Coupe is finished in Red and offered as a right-hand drive car, however, it had resided in much drier climes than the UK, in Southern France and has been converted to right-hand drive with the correct steering rack since being brought to the UK c.2016. When it was purchased in 2016 by the vendor the 24CT was located in a barn in the South of France, where it had stored in the dry for approximately 20 years. A lengthy restoration followed and was then UK registered in October 2021. 'CBU 698B' has been in use since and has been running well. There had not been any mechanical, engine or gearbox restoration, just servicing as the vendor advised that the car ran well even after 20 years in the barn. Offered with a collection of restoration photographs and current V5c document. For more information, please contact: James McWilliam james.mcwilliam@handh.co.uk 07943 584760
