If a charity or organisation needed help, Sir Ray was there.

He was also a director for 18 years on the main board of The Guardian & Manchester Evening News, and Chairman for ten years of the Belfast News Letter, the UKs oldest provincial daily. He was a founder shareholder and, for many years, an alternate director, of Capital Radio.He became Master of the Worshipful Company of Stationers and Newspaper Makers in 1985 after some 20 years of service on several committees and of the Court.Over the years he also donated sizeable sums to various worthy causes and projects, particularly in and around his hometown of Farnham.In 1973 Sir Ray was appointed OBE for services to the newspaper industry and in 1987 he was appointed CBE.

Six various silver sets in cases, comprising six sterling spoons with decorative handles, two knife fork and spoon sets, six 800 standard cake forks, and six seal top tea spoons SILVER COLLECTION OF SIR RAY TINDLE CBE DL 1926-2022 The following obituary (edited) was published by Tindle Newspapers: Sir Ray Tindle was a man who had a life-long commitment to, and passion for, the newspaper industry. He was a newspaper man through and through.After leaving school he enlisted in the 1st Battalion Devonshire Regiment and saw service in the Far East between 1944 and 1947, rising to the rank of captain.He was extremely proud of his association with the now-disbanded regiment and greatly mourned its passing, going so far as to name his previous home in Farnham Devonshire House in its honour.Sir Ray made the Surrey town his home in the 1960s and made such an impact in the following 50 years that he was known by locals as Mr Farnham. If a charity or organisation needed help, Sir Ray was there. He eventually stepped down as Chairman of Tindle Newspapers when he was 90, remaining as president, with son Owen, who runs the Oxon Hoath Retreat and Conference Centre in Kent, taking over as Chairman.After returning to the UK after the War,Sir Ray acquired his first newspaper title, the Tooting & Balham Gazette, with his £300 demob payment. It was to be the first of many and, over the years through a series of launches and acquisitions, the group grew to a considerable force under the collective banner of Tindle Newspapers Ltd. It now owns local papers and radio stations covering large parts of Surrey, Hampshire, Essex, Somerset, Devon and Cornwall, Wales, Ireland, the Channel Isles and the Isle of Man.

Vittorio di Colbertaldo, 1902 Forli – 1979 VeronaPortraitkopf „Luz Long“Höhe: 48 cm.Am Sockel links signiert und datiert „1936“.Der Bildhauer wurde vor allem in den USA bekannt durch seine Denkmalstatue für Christopher Columbus von 1957 in San Francisco. Der Stil des Bildhauers, der mehrere Denkmäler, wie das Monumento Paronzini in Verona mit einer Bronzepietà von 1929, Portraitbüsten, Tierfiguren etc. schuf, kann als bewegter, dynamischer Expressionismus bezeichnet werden. Der Portraitierte, Carl Ludwig Hermann Long (1913-1943), entstammte einer Leipziger Familie mit bedeutenden Vertretern, verwandt mit Justus von Liebig, Adolf von Harnack, Hans Delbrück, geb. Thiersch, sowie Urenkel einer Prinzessin von Sagan. Er studierte Jura, gehörte dem Leipziger Sport Club an. Als Anwalt arbeitete er in Hamburg. Berühmt wurde er aufgrund seiner Sportkarriere, vor allem während der Olympischen Spiele 1936, wo er nach Jesse Owens die Silbermedaille erhielt. Vor Augen Hitlers umarmte er den afroamerikanischen Sieger, was zu Aufsehen führte, aber auch zu einer bewegenden Korrespondenz und Freundschaft. („Lieber Freund Jesse! ... ich fürchte nur, für die falsche Sache zu sterben.“) Long erlag 1943 einer Kriegsverletzung. Leipzig und München widmeten Straßennamen nach ihm. Kopf, idealisiert, auf würfelförmigem mitgearbeitetem Sockel, weiße Modelliermasse. A.R. (1340956) (4) (11))

Vidal Sassoon CBE signed card, typed letter from secretary and original mailing envelope. (17 January 1928 - 9 May 2012) was a British hairstylist, businessman, and philanthropist. He was noted for repopularising a simple, close-cut geometric hairstyle called the bob cut, worn by famous fashion designers including Mary Quant and film stars such as Mia Farrow, Goldie Hawn, Cameron Diaz, Nastassja Kinski and Helen Mirren. His early life was one of extreme poverty, with seven years of his childhood spent in an orphanage. He quit school at age 14, soon holding various jobs in London during World War II. Although he hoped to become a professional football player, he became an apprentice hairdresser at the suggestion of his mother. After developing a reputation for his innovative cuts, he moved to Los Angeles in the early 1970s, where he opened the first worldwide chain of hairstyling salons, complemented by a line of hair-treatment products. He sold his business interests in the early 1980s and began funding Israeli think tanks with his profits. Vidal Sassoon: The Movie, a documentary film about his life, was released in 2010. In 2009, Sassoon was appointed CBE by Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace. In 2012, he was among the British cultural icons selected by artist Sir Peter Blake to appear in a new version of his most famous artwork, The Beatles' Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album cover to celebrate the British cultural figures of the last six decades. Good condition. All autographs come with a Certificate of Authenticity.

II, p. 602, cat. no. 1352 (as untraced)EngravedWilliam Sharp, line, 5 November 1794The sitter of the present portrait was a Manchester cotton merchant and political reformer. Having already been acquainted with the writings of Rousseau, Hume, Locke, and Voltaire, his political interests were most likely further aroused after he married Hannah Shore in 1775, whose brother, Samuel Shore was a Unitarian and member of the Society of the Friends of the People. As an outspoken protectionist, Walker earned national fame in 1785 when he successfully led a local campaign to oppose the government's introduction of a fustian tax. By the end of 1787 Walker had become chairman of a Manchester anti-slavery committee, holding the post for several years. These efforts endeared him to many leading Foxite Whigs, especially the earl of Derby, who became godfather to one of Walker's sons and who sponsored Walker's election to the Whig Club in 1788. Walker was also associated with the Manchester Revolution Society and on 1 February 1788 he became a member of the Society for Constitutional Information. Following the outbreak of the French Revolution, Walker was elected a steward of the London Revolution Society. In 1791 he helped establish the Manchester Herald and his house became a rendezvous for reformers after they were excluded from local taverns and public houses. He was tried and acquitted of High Treason in 1794.Romney's Ledger records that the present portrait was begun on 9 July 1793, that the first recorded sitting was on the 15th and the fourth and final one on the 31st of that month. The sitter paid £20 on 20 July and the balance of £15 16s, possibly as early as the same day, judging from the entry in the Receipt Book which suggests that the whole fee was received at once. The work was sent to William Sharp to be engraved on 10 October. It is highly likely that it was undertaken for the purposes of the engraving all along and Sharp no doubt viewed it as a sequel to his engraving of Romney's portrait of Thomas Paine, the first state of which had been published in 20 April, 1793. Together with Paine, Walker was Romney's most prominent Radical client during the early 1790s and the commission reinforced the artist's image as a sympathiser with the French Revolution. Sharp's engraving was the subject of a witty letter from engraver to sitter requesting him to 'get into a scrape' in order to make the print sell well after it was initially published on 5 November, 1794. In February 1795 Walker requested alterations to the engraving and it is recorded in March of that year that it was 'finished under Romney's directions'.We are grateful to Alex Kidson for confirming that the present portrait is Romney's original that was hitherto only known from Sharp's engraving.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

R.W. Martin & Brothers, Double-sided Face character jug, 1903, Salt glazed stoneware, Underside incised 'R.W. Martin / & Bros. / London / & Southall / 12-3.1903', 15.8cm high.Together with important documentation relating to the purchase and operations of the Martin Brothers - including a photograph, brochures and a significant letter dated 1914 transcribed below.Provenance:Purchased directly from the studio at Southall in 1914 and thence by descent. Purchased by George Swinburne whilst he was in Australia, through an agent in England - Reverend W.G.Beardmore - and kept in the family until now. Footnote:Original letter from Reverend W.G. Beardmore to George Swinburne dated 26 June 1914 is included in this lot and transcribed as follows:'Yesterday I went down to the Martins place in Brownlow St, Holborn to see what they were doing regarding your order; but I found the place closed. They have given up the shop; and are now only to be found at their works in Southall - 10 miles from London! It is a very grave error of judgement. They are very unworldly and unpractical men in relation to business. Moreover, two of the brothers are now dead. One died very suddenly; and unfortunately with him died some of the most important secrets of the production, blending of clay, firing and colour XXXXing. He had rather foolishly kept much of this a secret even from his brothers, and left no written record. He also was 'the thrower', or chief man at the wheel of the potter. He died with tragical suddenness, just as they were going to give a demonstration of their work at The Burlington Arts Club. There are now only 2 of them left; and one of them has had an operation upon the tongue, suspiciously suggestive of cancer. The eldest one (Wallace) however is fairly well, but getting old. He is the one who makes the face jugs. But I fear they will never again do work equal to that of the former days. The loss of the technical secrets which died with their brother, has left them nervous and terribly at sea. They were secrets which pertained to the soft glowing fusion of colour and the rich delicacy and subtle charm of surface. I find this lacking in their recent work. The samples which you bought in Melbourne were done in their best period; take great care of them.I hope my letter, of a few days ago has reached you safely ....'And he signs off 'NB. All our great treasure houses in London are closed owing to Suffragette Circus!'.Also in this lot; -another letter dated 9 December 1918, expressing the reverend's relief at having heard a letter from George Swinburne, and delight that the war is over. It concludes with a note regarding Martin-Ware advising to keep a firm grip on all that 'you have for you will never get any more; there is only one servicing brother in England / the greatest genius of ...', - hand-written note in pencil noting the address of 'R W Martin & Bros Ltd Potteries, Havelock Rd, Southall' with telephone number 'Southall 1601' and directions, - sepia photograph of the brothers, verso written in ink: 'Martin Bros making Martin Ware at the Studio, Southall Midsex England', - rare brochure titled 'A NOTE ON THE WORK OF THE MARTIN BROS.' by Sidney Greenslade, - newspaper cutting from The Times reporting the 'DEATH OF R.W. MARTIN', - brochure entitled 'MARTINWARE' by Holbrook Jackson, Reprinted from T.P.s Magazine, November 1910, Richard Clay and sons, Suffolk.Overall condition very good, no damage or restoration found.

He was commissioned into the Royal Navy for service during the Great War, and appointed Midshipman on 15 September 1917. Serving in H.M.S. Warspite from 26 September 1917, he was withdrawn from H.M. Service on 29 April 1919. Post war, he became a Stockbroker, and a keen mountaineer, joining the Alpine Club in 1931, his application showing that he made a guided ascent of the Wetterhorn at the age of 12, and climbed many of the major peaks after the Great War, including a number in the Dolomites. Whilst at Chamonix, he made a guided ascent of the Arete des Rochassiers to the Col des Courtes and descent by the couloir. This was the first traverse of this Arete and took in two points which the French Alpine Club officially called Pointe Payot and Pointe Eales. He died in early 1983, aged 82. Ernest Greenway attested into the Somerset Light Infantry for service during the Great War, but does not appear to have served overseas. He was commissioned into the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve on 10 May 1916, and served in Motor Launches M.L.254 and M.L.389 and M.L.176. He was demobilised on 5 January 1919.

He commanded his battalion with the greatest skill and ability, pushing resolutely forward in face of extreme machine-gun fire, and after a personal reconnaissance continuing his advance and capturing and consolidating a position some 6,000 yards in front of the jumping-off line. His courage and leadership were admirable.’ D.S.O. Second Award Bar London Gazette 8 March 1919; citation published 4 October 1919: Maj. (A./Lt.-Col.) John Pollands Girvan, M.C., 15th Bn., Can. Inf., 1st C. Ont. R. ‘For marked gallantry and ability in the attack on Canal du Nord on 27th September, 1918. Crossing the canal on light bridges, and the River Agache by planks, under heavy machine-gun and sniping fire, he pushed on. He personally attacked and captured an enemy machine gun, shooting the gunner and turning the gun on the enemy. He went on and assisted in capturing Chapel Corner and the village of Marquion, and then gained his final objectives. His courage and dash were a fine example to his command.’ M.C. London Gazette 18 October 1917; citation published 7 March 1918: Capt. (A./Maj.) John Pollands Girvan, M.C., Canadian Inf. ‘For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. Throughout an attack he led his company with the greatest skill and courage, continually going forward into our own barrage at great personal risk in order to check men who were advancing too fast. He directed his men amidst the fiercest shelling, and it was due to his gallant personal example that hostile counter-attacks were fruitless. His reports were invaluable, and it was largely due to him that the enemy were held back from the captured ground.’ M.I.D. London Gazette 16 March 1916. French Croix de Guerre London Gazette 1 May 1917. John ‘Jack’ Pollands Girvan was born born on 28 November 1887, at Kingarth, Argyll and Bute, Scotland. In 1907, he became a clerk in the Civil Service. He was a fine athlete, winning numerous championships as a member of the Argonaut rowing club. He belonged to an active militia when he attested on 14 September 1914, at Valcartier, Quebec. During the Great War, he married Nursing Sister Jean Elizabeth Sword. Girvan sailed on 3 October 1914, with the first contingent, arriving in England on 16 October 1916. On 4 February 1915, the 15th Battalion battalion paraded in light marching order for ‘Inspection & Review’ by H.M. the Kin, followed by the March Past, at North Larkhill camp. The following week, they boarded S.S. Mount Temple, at Avonmouth, on 12 February 1915. After a very rough voyage with high seas, they arrived at St Nazaire, in France, on 15 February 1915. Two days later, they arrived at Hazebrouck in Belgium, moving into billets at Caestre the next day and into billets in Armentieres on 23 February 1915. The 15th Battalion entered the trenches for the first time on 24 February 1915, suffering their first casualty on the night of the 27th. They entered the trenches at Rue Petillon, on 6 March 1915, pulling out three days later. In April 1915, the Canadians moved to the Ypres area and took part in the battle of Kitchener’s Wood (Second Battle of Ypres). The 15th Battalion held the line against the German chlorine gas attack, but suffered heavy casualties. The battalion was at the apex of the Canadian position on 24 April. The 15th Battalion suffered the heaviest casualties of any Canadian unit, with over 647 casualties, being hit by the heaviest of the gas, and was overrun by the Germans. Girvan’s No. 1 Company, was on the extreme right flank of the Battalion’s three forward companies and was very lucky to have survived. In the battle of Festubert, on 15 May 1915, the battalion again suffered heavy casualties. Girvan was promoted to be Sergeant, in the field, ‘A’ Company, 15th Battalion, on 11 June 1915. He was appointed to Temporary Commission, and posted to 15th Battalion on 26 September 1915; granted 5 days leave, 17 October 1915; granted 7 days leave, 5 January 1916; to be Captain, 27 April 1916; granted leave of absence from 25 May to 2 June 1916. On 3 June 1916 the Battalion conducted the first Canadian counter-attack of the war against Observatory Ridge, in opening stages of the battle of Mount Sorrel, again suffering heavy casualties. Now a Major commanding No. 3 Company, he was wounded during the battle of Flers–Courcelette on 24 September 1916, by a bullet wound which penetrated his right chest at the sternum, and travelled down and lodged in abdominal muscle. He was admitted to 2nd Red Cross Hospital, Rouen, on 27 September 1916, and to Yorkhill War Hospital, Glasgow, on 1 October 1916. He was discharged on 18 October 1916, but was declared unfit for service for three months and granted leave to Canada, 21 October 1916 to 21 January 1917. Girvan returned to England in late March of 1917, and was appointed Acting Major on 28 April 1917. Then, awarded the Croix du Guerre, on 1 May 1917. Here he spent several months in Bramshott Camp, Hampshire, where his future wife Jean Sword was undergoing training at the camp hospital, and they undoubtedly spent some time together. Girvan returned back to France where, on 30 July 1917, he was indemnified for loss of kit. He was in command of No. 1 Company leading the forward assault of the 15th Battalion during the battle of Hill 70, and was awarded the Military Cross for this action in which the 15th Battalion assaulted and captured Puits 14 and Bois Hugo as part of the Canadian Corps assault on Hill 70 near Lens, France. The battalion was in the first wave of the assault on the Corps’ exposed and vital left flank. Having secured all their objectives on the morning of 15 August 1917, the battalion defended its position for a day and half against numerous German counter attacks until it was relieved and withdrawn from the line. Girvan was struck off the strength of the 15th Battalion to attend a Command Officers Course at Aldershot on 27 June 1918 for 8 weeks, and during this time married Nursing Sister Jean Sword. Girvan, now second in command of the 48th Highlanders of Canada, proceeded overseas to the 15th Battalion, from Witley, on 20 August 1918. For the third time, he landed in France, on 23 August 1918, and rejoined his unit on 26 August. With the Commanding Officer Lieutenant-Colonel C. E. Bent severely wounded, Girvan took command as the Acting Commanding Officer. Upon the C.O.’s return, several times Girvan acted as C.O. while the commander was away. On 30 August 1918, he narrowly escaped death when the Battalion H.Q. dugout took a direct hit from a German artillery shell. Gir...

His courage and leadership were admirable.’ D.S.O. Second Award Bar London Gazette 8 March 1919; citation published 4 October 1919: Maj. (A./Lt.-Col.) John Pollands Girvan, M.C., 15th Bn., Can. Inf., 1st C. Ont. R. ‘For marked gallantry and ability in the attack on Canal du Nord on 27th September, 1918. Crossing the canal on light bridges, and the River Agache by planks, under heavy machine-gun and sniping fire, he pushed on. He personally attacked and captured an enemy machine gun, shooting the gunner and turning the gun on the enemy. He went on and assisted in capturing Chapel Corner and the village of Marquion, and then gained his final objectives. His courage and dash were a fine example to his command.’ M.C. London Gazette 18 October 1917; citation published 7 March 1918: Capt. (A./Maj.) John Pollands Girvan, M.C., Canadian Inf. ‘For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. Throughout an attack he led his company with the greatest skill and courage, continually going forward into our own barrage at great personal risk in order to check men who were advancing too fast. He directed his men amidst the fiercest shelling, and it was due to his gallant personal example that hostile counter-attacks were fruitless. His reports were invaluable, and it was largely due to him that the enemy were held back from the captured ground.’ M.I.D. London Gazette 16 March 1916. French Croix de Guerre London Gazette 1 May 1917. John ‘Jack’ Pollands Girvan was born born on 28 November 1887, at Kingarth, Argyll and Bute, Scotland. In 1907, he became a clerk in the Civil Service. He was a fine athlete, winning numerous championships as a member of the Argonaut rowing club. He belonged to an active militia when he attested on 14 September 1914, at Valcartier, Quebec. During the Great War, he married Nursing Sister Jean Elizabeth Sword. Girvan sailed on 3 October 1914, with the first contingent, arriving in England on 16 October 1916. On 4 February 1915, the 15th Battalion battalion paraded in light marching order for ‘Inspection & Review’ by H.M. the Kin, followed by the March Past, at North Larkhill camp. The following week, they boarded S.S. Mount Temple, at Avonmouth, on 12 February 1915. After a very rough voyage with high seas, they arrived at St Nazaire, in France, on 15 February 1915. Two days later, they arrived at Hazebrouck in Belgium, moving into billets at Caestre the next day and into billets in Armentieres on 23 February 1915. The 15th Battalion entered the trenches for the first time on 24 February 1915, suffering their first casualty on the night of the 27th. They entered the trenches at Rue Petillon, on 6 March 1915, pulling out three days later. In April 1915, the Canadians moved to the Ypres area and took part in the battle of Kitchener’s Wood (Second Battle of Ypres). The 15th Battalion held the line against the German chlorine gas attack, but suffered heavy casualties. The battalion was at the apex of the Canadian position on 24 April. The 15th Battalion suffered the heaviest casualties of any Canadian unit, with over 647 casualties, being hit by the heaviest of the gas, and was overrun by the Germans. Girvan’s No. 1 Company, was on the extreme right flank of the Battalion’s three forward companies and was very lucky to have survived. In the battle of Festubert, on 15 May 1915, the battalion again suffered heavy casualties. Girvan was promoted to be Sergeant, in the field, ‘A’ Company, 15th Battalion, on 11 June 1915. He was appointed to Temporary Commission, and posted to 15th Battalion on 26 September 1915; granted 5 days leave, 17 October 1915; granted 7 days leave, 5 January 1916; to be Captain, 27 April 1916; granted leave of absence from 25 May to 2 June 1916. On 3 June 1916 the Battalion conducted the first Canadian counter-attack of the war against Observatory Ridge, in opening stages of the battle of Mount Sorrel, again suffering heavy casualties. Now a Major commanding No. 3 Company, he was wounded during the battle of Flers–Courcelette on 24 September 1916, by a bullet wound which penetrated his right chest at the sternum, and travelled down and lodged in abdominal muscle. He was admitted to 2nd Red Cross Hospital, Rouen, on 27 September 1916, and to Yorkhill War Hospital, Glasgow, on 1 October 1916. He was discharged on 18 October 1916, but was declared unfit for service for three months and granted leave to Canada, 21 October 1916 to 21 January 1917. Girvan returned to England in late March of 1917, and was appointed Acting Major on 28 April 1917. Then, awarded the Croix du Guerre, on 1 May 1917. Here he spent several months in Bramshott Camp, Hampshire, where his future wife Jean Sword was undergoing training at the camp hospital, and they undoubtedly spent some time together. Girvan returned back to France where, on 30 July 1917, he was indemnified for loss of kit. He was in command of No. 1 Company leading the forward assault of the 15th Battalion during the battle of Hill 70, and was awarded the Military Cross for this action in which the 15th Battalion assaulted and captured Puits 14 and Bois Hugo as part of the Canadian Corps assault on Hill 70 near Lens, France. The battalion was in the first wave of the assault on the Corps’ exposed and vital left flank. Having secured all their objectives on the morning of 15 August 1917, the battalion defended its position for a day and half against numerous German counter attacks until it was relieved and withdrawn from the line. Girvan was struck off the strength of the 15th Battalion to attend a Command Officers Course at Aldershot on 27 June 1918 for 8 w...
