A car boot sale find 25 years ago has revealed how a luxury cruise liner was converted for transporting thousands of troops during the Second World War. Costing just £25 in 1996, the plans are now estimated at £3000-4000 at Ewbank’s auction in Send, Surrey, on March 26. The owner said he bought them after learning that the vendor intended to put them on a bonfire when he got home if they did not sell. The full set of plans relating to the requisitioned RMS Queen Mary – one of the three grandest liners of the period – comprise 14 individual sheets (see picture below for an idea of length), packed with intricate details of how the ship was stripped to make way for nearly 17,000 men including the crew. The Queen Mary arrived in New York as Britain declared war against Germany on September 3, 1939, and remained there in berth alongside the Normandie for the next six months before being joined by the Queen Elizabeth, which had made a dash across the Atlantic from Clydebank. The plan was to use the ships as troop carriers, but the Normandie was destroyed in a fire during the conversion process. The Queen Mary left for Sydney in Australia where the Admiralty’s plan for conversion went ahead with a view to her transporting troops from Australia and New Zealand. On October 2, 1942, as she set off with thousands of American troops to join the Allied forces in Europe, the Queen Mary accidentally ploughed a course directly across the deck of her cruiser escort, HMS Curacoa off the Irish coast. The Curacoa sank with a loss of 239 lives. Just under a year later, the Queen Mary set a record for the largest number of passengers ever transported on a single vessel when she carried 15,740 soldiers and 943 crew. Further duties included carrying Prime Minister Winston Churchill across the Atlantic to the US for meetings. When the war came to an end, the Queen Mary was refitted and went back to her duties as an Atlantic cruise liner. She is now moored in Long Beach and used as a hotel. ewbanks.co.uk 3

This was the case when Wilkinson’s (20% buyer’s 1 premium) opened its tri-annual 7 period oak furniture sale with 209 treen lots from the collection of Graham Cutts, a well-known Norfolk enthusiast who is diversifying his collection. His material included some 30 5 6 18th-19th century metal or bone items, among which was the one failure, a pair of 18th century steel tongs. Everything else sold and generally well above expectations. “The collection really captured 8 people’s imagination,” said auctioneer Matt Gibson after the February 27-28 Doncaster sale. “It had some of highest prices we’ve ever 4 seen for treen, as well as some of the highest prices seen by some of the avid collectors.” Estimated to fetch £50,000- 80,000, it totalled £163,000.

How to get away with murder Collection offered in London auction included Agatha Christie and other crime classics

by Ian McKay

Agatha Christie was a major attraction in an online sale of crime fiction that ended on February 4 at Sotheby’s (26/20/13.9% buyer’s premium). This was an auction in which a great many of the more significant lots came from the collection of the late Alexis Galanos (1940-2019), an English-educated, Greek Cypriot politician and bibliophile. 1 3 The most expensive of them was 2 a copy of Christie’s The ABC Murders of 1936, which along with a few other top lots was published under the ‘Collins Crime Club’ banner. Formerly in the extensive crime and fantasy collections of a South African collector, Ronald Segal, it had made £8500 in his Sotheby’s sale of 2000. However, the £38,000 paid this time was an auction record, as were the sums achieved for all of the Christie books noted here – and indeed for all those works by other writers that follow.

Herbert’s collecting seemed to have started in earnest, some 40 years ago, when Helen, his Governess, passed away. He adored her, but she didn’t like the idea of Herbert collecting.” Kennard had a deep affection for 18th century English furniture, satinwood in particular and associated works of art such as boxes, tea caddies and trays. Working in Berkeley Square, he made purchases from leading antiques dealers often at the top fairs.

There once was an artist called Lear...... whose painting skill is now clear... as a first selling exhibition for 30 years underlines

by Gabriel Berner

Though he is best known today for limericks and sending the owl and the pussy cat to sea in a beautiful pea green boat, Edward Lear (1812-88) was an artist by trade. It was not until the Royal Academy held a major show of his work in 1985 that his achievements with the paintbrush were brought to the attention of the general public. A selection of works from the Edward Lear exhibition at Guy Peppiatt Fine Art: Since then, exhibitions have been Above left: Study of two Water Shrews, a 4½ x 10in (11 x 24cm) watercolour – £8500. held at the Ashmolean Museum Above right: Corfu Town from Vido with Agioi Deka in the distance, a 12 x 18in (30 x 46cm) watercolour – £30,000. and on the island of Corfu (where he later lived), while the first major Below left: There was an old Lady whose Folly Induced her to sit upon Holly, 9 x 7in (23 x 18cm), pen and brown ink – £12,500. biography on Lear as an artist was Below right: Pallanza, Lago Maggiore, a 7 x 15in (18 x 38cm) watercolour – £24,000. published in 2017. Now, the first selling exhibition dedicated to Lear’s pictures for at least 30 years is under way at St James’s gallery Guy Peppiatt Fine Art. The online-only show, which runs until April 9, includes more than 30 drawings and watercolours covering his artistic career. “Lear’s paintings and drawings have over the years become better known,” says the gallery’s Guy Peppiatt, although he admits to being surprised by the lack of recent exhibitions on his work. “His distinctive style, which evolved out of his desire to rapidly American ornithologist John James limerick drawings, the earliest of completed in the studio and on-the- capture the myriad subjects before Audubon and has prompted David which date from his time entertaining spot sketches. him, and his dynamic use of colour in Attenborough, a collector of Lear’s children at Knowsley Hall while The exhibition contains a few of both oil and watercolour are a visual work, to describe him as “probably he was under the patronage of the Lear’s early landscape drawings such reflection of the man, his insatiable the best ornithological illustrator Earl of Derby.
