Adrian Jeanes (British, Contemporary) - ' Katja IV ' - An original 21st century graphite pencil on paper nude drawing of lady. Signed & titled in pencil to bottom. Mounted, framed & glazed. Measures approx. 64cm x 27cm. From Adrian's website: Graphite pencil is the only medium used, and absolutely no computer manipulation what-so-ever has been employed. My non-professional models are either friends or work colleagues, and I direct and shoot my own photographic reference material. I usually use three to five pics - each shot under different lighting conditions - and these are arranged around the drawing board, which is balanced precariously on my lap. This is the only way I can work, so unfortunately, due to the length of my arms, this determines the overall maximum finished size of a drawing to approximately 63cm. Each study takes between 30 and 80 hours to complete, depending on size, complexity, and of course, other commitments. Although, I have always considered drawing to be my hobby, I was very fortunate to have been invited to exhibit at Bristol and Bath, and then at Toronto and New York. This exposure has since led to commission work and the very welcome offers of modelling.

Registration No: SV 7308 Frame No: A2473 Engine No: 02722 CC: 269 MOT: ExemptA rare British pioneer machineFormed part of a private collectionIdeal pioneer run machineJuno was the name given to motorcycles sold by the Metropolitan Machinists Co. of Bishopsgate, London, between 1905 and 1924. Juno motorcycles were often built to order, and the company started out with a small 3hp solo and a 3½ hp forecar fitted with Fafnir engines. Later they turned to Precision engined machines, JAP and the 269cc Villiers engines. Typical of the era, the machines had belt drive, one or two speeds and Druid forks. There was a very small demand and production was limited. Post-WWI, the company resumed again, having stopped in 1915. Production was modest and the machines were mainly built to order and to customers' specifications. This trend continued until at least 1924, when they were advertising a lightweight fitted with a 147cc Villiers engine, two-speed gearbox and electric lighting. By that time the company was called the Juno Cycle Co.This 1914 Juno lightweight machine has formed part of a private collection of machines. It is a rare survivor today, especially being from 1914. Restored many years ago it has had little use since completion. Recommissioning would be advised before use. For more information, please contact: Mike Davis mike.davis@handh.co.uk 07718 584217
Registration No: 515 XVU Frame No: 309683 Engine No: 651402 CC: 125 MOT: ExemptExtremely original and standardIn fully working order ATCValuable accessoriesV5C for use on UK roadsThe Lambretta Li Series 1 was properly launched in April 1958. Some 7 months after the TV175 series 1 was launched. By then Innocenti had eliminated most of the engine problems that the 175 had. The Li 125 was a dramatic departure from the shaft driven LD range that had preceded it. The new enclosed chain driven engine was centrally positioned under the frame and had more power than the LD. With larger 10 inch wheels and beautifully designed panel work it was a superb scooter to ride and was instant hit. The Lambretta Li125 series 2 was launched in October 1959. Based on the successful series 1 with the obvious difference was the position of the headlight on the handlebars for better lighting when cornering. It had an engine based on the Li125 series 1 but with an increased stroke and several other small modifications all over the scooter that made it the best-selling Lambretta of all time.This very original machine was sourced according to our vendor via Rimini Lambretta Centre and was subject to a service there before being imported around 2020 into the UK. Originally licensed in Ancona, Italy the scooter is supplied with its original ‘Targa’ Italian number plate in addition to the UK license plate. During the service the scooter had a new rear shock fitted and new tyres. We are informed that even the piston is the original although it has had new rings fitted which are still not yet run in. The electrics are still on 6v points and all over the scooter one can see originality including the lights, carburettor and engine. The original paint shows no obvious signs of any touch ups and has a pleasant all over patina with a good condition front mudguard. The scooter has some valuable accessories including a Cavalli Falbo ‘pig nose’ horn cast embellisher, Cavalli fork covers and a top of the range Rimini leopard Pegasus seat. Other accessories are original hand and lever grips. The scooter comes with the steering lock key and is fitted with an aftermarket Li125 speedometer. We are informed by the vendor that the sooner rides really well and we were able to see the scooter running very well with no issues at the time of consignment. The original light switch has been damaged in storage and supplied is a genuine NOS replacement switch will be supplied with the lot. This scooter is ready to ride and enjoy on the road.

GLEN GRANT 10 YEAR OLD GORDON & MACPHAIL 1970S 26 2/3 FL OZ SPEYSIDE SINGLE MALT 70° Proof / 26 2/3 fl oz Glen Grant was the first distillery in Scotland to have electric lighting installed, thanks to its forward-thinking owner, and all-round colourful character, Major James Grant. Grant was an innovator who was one of the first people to realise the potential of exporting whisky abroad. Initially, this paid dividends, and in 1897 The Major began construction of a second distillery across the road. However, as was the case with so many distilleries built around this time, Glen Grant 2 was mothballed after just a few years. Although, it did re-open in 1965 under the name Caperdonich.While it might not be a household name in the UK, Glen Grant is consistently one of the top selling single malts in Italy due to the groundwork laid by legendary importer Armando Giovinetti in the 1960s. It, therefore, seems appropriate that the distillery is now owned by Campari, an Italian company.
