WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT (1988) - Roger Rabbit Original Production Cel - An original production cel of Roger Rabbit from Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988). Who Framed Roger Rabbit was a landmark in animation history, produced at Elstree Studios in London and directed by Robert Zemeckis, with animation supervised by Richard Williams. Seamlessly blending live action and animation, the film revitalised the genre for a new generation and remains a masterclass in technical achievement and character performance.This shot shows Roger mid-line in a pivotal scene with Dolores and Eddie Valiant. Large, animated, and full of cartoon expression, this frame appears at 46:06 as Roger pleads his case while Eddie saws through the handcuffs in the backroom of the bar."You think my boss R.K. Maroon dropped a safe on Marvin Acme's head... just so he could get his hands on Toontown?!"It's classic, dramatic Roger, and this frame's sheer size and emotional energy make it fun and desirable. Original cels from key dialogue scenes are increasingly scarce, especially with this level of expression and scale. "77/16" and "238" written in black ink along the bottom. Dimensions: 31 cm x 42 cm (12.25" x 16.5")Sold without copyright; see copyright notice in the Buyer's Guide.VAT Status: M

WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT (1988) - Jessica Rabbit Original Production Cel - An original hand-painted production cel of Jessica Rabbit from Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988), captured in a key moment inside Benny the Cab as the tension ramps. Roger Rabbit was a landmark release, animated in London at Richard Williams' studio and released by Disney's Touchstone Pictures. Combining hand-drawn animation with live action in a way never seen before, the film was a commercial and critical success, earning multiple Academy Awards and redefining what animation could be on screen.This frame comes just as Jessica pleads, "We have to find my husband," to which Eddie Valiant, exasperated, asks, "Seriously, what do you see in that guy?" Her now-iconic reply: "He makes me laugh."A beautifully rendered cel, with Jessica's expression perfectly composed and her trademark poise intact. It's a rare moment where Jessica's eyes engage with ours, hard to notice with the speed of the scene. The lack of paint below the chest is entirely intentional; she's seated in the cab, and this cel would have been overlaid onto the interior setup. A practical production detail, but one that adds a layer of storytelling to the piece. "199/5" and "119" are written in black ink along the bottom.Good production cels of Jessica with this clarity, attitude, and context are increasingly sought after, and rightly so. It's a reminder of why Roger Rabbit continues to stand out: technically ambitious, culturally significant, and still every bit as entertaining today. Dimensions: 31.5 cm x 42 cm (12.5" x 16.5")Sold without copyright; see copyright notice in the Buyer's Guide.VAT Status: M

‘Blind Harry’ (c.1440-1492) The Acts and Deeds of the Most Famous and Valiant Champion Sir William Wallace, Knight of Ellerslie Together with Arnaldi Blair Relationes. Edinburgh: printed in the year 1758. 3 parts in 1 volume, 4to (22.5 x 17.5cm), [2] 403 [1], 79 [1], 443 [1] pp., early-19th-century straight-grain tan morocco gilt, rebacked to style, all edges gilt, main text in black letter, variable spotting and browning, part 1 with hole in D1 costing a few letters verso, marginal losses to S1, and 2Q2, 5O1-2 with marginal repair, closed tear in 5X2, part 3 (Robert Bruce) with small 2D1, marginal losses to 2I2 and 3U2, marginal repair to 4C1;and 11 others, Scottish topography and history (these not collated), including: Walter Scott, The Border Antiquities of England and Scotland, 1814 (first edition, 2 volumes, 4to, contemporary straight-grain morocco richly gilt); Wilson's Historical, Traditionary, and Imaginative Tales of the Borders, and of Scotland, Newcastle: Adam & Co., c.1880 (3 volumes, 4to, near-contemporary purple half morocco, lithographic plates); and similar (22) From the library at Park House, Inverkeithing. Uncommon black-letter edition of the work responsible for establishing William Wallace as a Scottish national hero of semi-legendary stature; the first edition was printed at Edinburgh by Chepman and Myllar c.1508 and apparently survives in a single fragmentary copy. 'Despite the lack of contemporary evidence regarding Harry himself, his poem has proved to be one of the most enduringly popular and most influential in all Scottish literature. John Mair and Hector Boece used it in the sixteenth century as a historical source; Robert Burns remarked on how it had inflamed his patriotic feeling; Sir Walter Scott drew on it for his Tales of a Grandfather; and its influence is visible in the hugely popular film Braveheart (1995). The place held to this day by Wallace in the popular imagination is principally due to Harry's portrayal; and on a more general level, his contribution to the Scottish sense of national identity is fundamental, matched only by that of Scott. This has long been recognized, but recent critical reassessments of his poem have materially raised his accepted standing as a writer, demolishing the notion of an untutored "minstrel" and revealing him as a poet of genius' (ODNB).

The extremely rare Great War ‘Mesopotamia’ D.F.C., G.S.M. ‘S. Persia’ pair awarded to Captain A. P. Adams, 47 and 30 Squadrons, Royal Flying Corps and Royal Air Force, one of a handful of pilots to qualify for the ‘S. Persia’ clasp; killed in action, 6 March 1919 - posthumously mentioned in despatches, and a unique casualty to the R.A.F. for the campaign. Adams was a man of action and multiple air rescues, often under fire and almost always from inhospitable and difficult terrain. After being shot down, 31 October 1917, he was himself rescued by Frank Nuttall, M.C., D.F.C., A.F.C., ‘clinging to one wing and the fuselage’ Adams’ luck ran out when his single-seater Martinsyde Scout was shot down whilst carrying out a low-level attack on hostile tribesmen at Khun, 6 March 1919. Despite valiant attempts by another pilot of his flight to land and rescue him, the terrain was deemed too treacherous, and it quickly became apparent from Adams’ prone body that the gallant airman was dead. His body was eventually recovered five days later by friendly tribesmen Distinguished Flying Cross, G.V.R.; General Service 1918-62, 1 clasp, S. Persia, with M.I.D. oak leaves (Capt. A. P. Adams. R.A.F.) mounted for display on card, nearly extremely fine (2) £4,000-£5,000 --- D.F.C. London Gazette 1 January 1919. The following is an extract for Special Order of the Day No. 123 dated 18 November 1918: ‘Lieut. Allen Percy Adams - For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. He has carried out a very large number of successful long distance reconnaissances and bombing raids by day and night and has fought many combats in the air. On one occasion although his machine was badly damaged by gun fire he landed behind the enemy lines and brought back a Scout pilot who had been forced to land.’ M.I.D. London Gazette 3 February 1920, Adams, Capt. A. P. , D.F.C., 30th Sqdn., R.A.F. (Killed in action): ‘For valuable services rendered with the Bushire Force in Persia during the period from 1st April, 1918, to 31st March, 1919.’ Approximately 30 General Service Medals for ‘S. Persia’ were awarded to Royal Air Force personnel, just five aircraft of No. 30 Squadron being present in the qualifying period November 1918 to June 1919. Allen Percy Adams was born in June 1897, resided at ‘Oaklands’, Halstead, Essex and was educated at Felsted School. He was commissioned Second Lieutenant in the Royal Flying Corps, Special Reserve in April 1916. Adams carried out training at No. 2 School of Aeronautics; with No. 4 Reserve Squadron and at Brooklands and Hythe. He was placed on the General List in July 1916, and posted for further training with 49 Squadron. Adams advanced to Flying Officer (Observer) in December 1916, and was posted for operational service with 47 Squadron in the Middle East. He receives several mentions for his service as an Observer with the Squadron in Over the Balkans and South Russia (47th Squadron), by H. A. Jones. In particular for an attack on an enemy Kite Balloon, when ‘the Bulgar showed great anger at this attack, and a considerable number of “flaming onions” were thrown up at the aeroplane.’ Adams was graded as Pilot in June 1917, and posted for operational flying with 30 Squadron (BE 2c’s) in the Middle East. The Squadron were active in Mesopotamia, with Adams in the thick of it: ‘By late 1917, the R.F.C. were beginning to enjoy air supremacy but did not always find their reconnaissance or bombing tasks could be performed without difficulty. On October 31, for instance, I Corps were about to attack on the Tigris front, and six Martinsydes, led by Lieutenant F. Nuttall [M.C., D.F.C., A.F.C. - awarded the M.C. for saving Adams], were sent to bomb Kifri aerodrome on the Diyala front as a diversionary measure. As they came into attack an enemy aircraft took off and engaged one of the BE 2c’s of the British force. The pilot, Lieutenant A. P. Adams, his aircraft heavily laden with bombs, was unable to take sufficient evasive action and received tremendous punishment. With his engine useless, he had no option but to land in an area close by some Turkish troops. Nuttall saw Adam’s predicament and ignoring the danger of the troops, flew down to rescue the other pilot. As he touched down, Adams was busy destroying his aircraft. By the time he had finished this task and had half run, half stumbled across to Nuttall, the line of retreat was cut off by Turkish troops. A few brief bursts from a machine gun soon dispersed this hazard and, with Adams clinging to one wing and the fuselage, Nuttall took off again and reached his base safely.’ (The Royal Flying Corps - A History, by G. Norris refers) Adams was appointed Temporary Lieutenant in January 1918, and advanced to Acting Captain and Flight Commander in December 1918 (whilst the relevant rolls confirm that Captain Adams’ D.F.C. and G.S.M. were forwarded to his father Colonel P. Adams, V.D. (C/O 5th Battalion, Essex volunteers) there is no record of his BWM and VM having been issued. The rubber stamps. which normally confirm issue, are absent from his Record of Service. Further the D.F.C. and G.SM. were purchased directly from his sisters - whilst their father’s medals, with some uniforms, appeared in a local auction in Halstead in the early 1970’s). The next part of Adam’s service is described in detail by the article A Death in South Persia by Wing Commander J. Routledge: ‘If the personnel of No. 30 Squadron, Royal Air Force believed that the signing of an armistice between the British and Turkish Governments as from 12 noon on October 31, 1918, meant that for the first time in four years they could relax, they were in for a shock. The squadron had been on active service in Egypt and Mesopotamia ever since its formation; its career had been a strenuous one and its percentage of casualties high. However, the cessation of hostilities against the Turks found time for new roles in Kurdistan and Northern Persia. Numerous landing grounds were selected in outlying parts of the country and progress was made in opening up the region for aviation. To their surprise, on Christmas Day 1918, orders were received for more operational work in the area of Bushire in South Persia, where a frontier war was in progress against the Qashqais and other tribes. The tribesmen to be subdued were nomadic brigands who had been giving trouble for some time, and the country of Fars was more or less a lawless state. In May 1918, Saulat, the chief of the Qashqais, had declared war against the British and the South Persian Rifles, believed to be at the instigation of German agents. The Qashqais were good fighters, and with some 30,000-45,000 men armed with modern rifles, were a formidable force. Autumn 1918 had seen the landing of Major-General J. A. Douglas’s division in Bushire with the aim to establish law and order, but the wild and mountainous country with practically no roads made for very difficult campaigning. It was felt that the R.A.F. might be the solution for bringing the operations to a speedier end. Thus it was that Captain Allen Percy Adams was ordered to take ‘C’ flight to Bushire at the beginning of January 1919. Adams had only recently been advanced to the rank of Captain on the departure to England of the previous flight commander. The award of a Distinguished Flying Cross for his heroic services with 30 Squadron had been announced on October 31, 1918 (subsequently gazetted January 1, 1919). He had twice saved downed colleagues by landing in the face of advancing Turkish forces and carrying out rescues in the most hazardous circumstances...

London Gazette 14 March 1916, the original citation states:'For meritorious service in H.M.S. Swiftsure in operations in the Dardanelles. Lieutenant Carnduff performed good service during the evacuation of Sulva and Helles, being specially selected for the evacuation from Helles in view of his good service during the evacuation of Sulva 'M.I.D. London Gazette 14 March 1916.Herbert Julian Carnduff was born on 13 July 1892, the son of Sir Herbert Carnduff, C.I.E, a High Court judge in India. Educated at Danesbury Prep School, Bengeo, Hertford he entered the Royal Navy as a cadet on 15 January 1905, passing out as Midshipman on 15 September 1909. He served on a number of shore bases and vessels prior to the Great War; elevated to Lieutenant he was appointed to Swiftsure on 2 February 1914.During the Great War, Swiftsure escorted Indian troop convoys from Bombay to Aden from September-November 1914, when the destruction of the German light cruiser S.M.S. Emden, which had been raiding in the Indian Ocean, made this escort duty unnecessary. She was then transferred to the Suez Canal Patrol on 1 December to help defend the Canal, although she remained East Indies Station flagship while at Suez. From 27 January-4 February 1915 the ship helped to defend the Canal near Kantara during the First Suez Offensive by Ottoman forces.Swiftsure was relieved as East Indies Station flagship by the armoured cruiser Euryalus later in February 1915 and transferred to the Dardanelles for service in the Dardanelles Campaign. She joined the Dardanelles Squadron on 28 February 1915 and took part in the attack on Fort Dardanos on 2 March. She and Triumph were detached from the Dardanelles on 5 March for operations against forts at Smyrna, returning to the Dardanelles on 9 March. She participated in the main attack on the Narrows forts on 18 March and supported the main landings at West Beach at Cape Helles on 25 April and subsequent landings, including the attack on Achi Baba on 4 June. On 18 September, a German submarine unsuccessfully attacked her while she was on a voyage from Mudros to Suvla Bay. She took part in the bombardment of Dedeagatch on 18 January 1916. Swiftsure left the Dardanelles in February 1916.Carnduff left Swiftsure on 13 January 1916, joining Ribble for a two-month appointment followed by Mosquito for the next four months ending 13 July. A number of shore-based appointments followed after which he was posted to command the patrol boat P59 from 19 February 1917 until 7 September followed by command of P45. The Commander-in-Chief, Portsmouth, considered Carnduff 'much to blame' in a grounding of P45 and Carnduff was cautioned to be more careful in future.He was next appointed to command the destroyer Lucifer on 28 January 1918 serving aboard her until the end of the war. Carnduff married Nina Iris Grahame Chambers in 1918, sister of Pansy Chambers, a Great War poet. Nina was credited with launching the fashion trend of adorning a lady's arm with a fancy-coloured butterfly tattoo in 1919; quite risqué at the time!Appointed to Valiant on 1 September 1921, Carnduff drowned at Plymouth 'under mysterious circumstances' on 13 April 1922. He had gone ashore to play rugby, and was seen in Plymouth at 11.20pm, 'sober and normal'. His body was found the next day off Bull Point. It was thought that he might have fallen into the water while trying to find a boat that could take him back to the battleship.Carnduff's brother, Captain K.M. Carnduff, was killed in action on 12 January 1916 whilst serving with the 2nd Field Squadron, Royal Engineers; sold together with an extensive archive of copied research.…

The Lloyd’s War Medal for Bravery at Sea awarded to Cook and Steward E. Chalker, Merchant Navy, who was awarded the B.E.M. for services in the S.S. Cormount when she was attacked by an enemy aircraft on 21 June 1941; for his ‘supreme example of valour’ in the same action, Gunner H. H. Reed was awarded a posthumous George Cross Lloyd’s War Medal for Bravery at Sea (Cook & Steward Edgar Chalker, S.S. “Cormount”, 21st June 1941) in case of issue, extremely fine £1,000-£1,400 --- Provenance: W. H. Fevyer Collection, Dix Noonan Webb, September 2008. B.E.M. London Gazette 23 September 1941 Edgar Chalker, Cook and Steward (in a joint citation with Gunner Henry Herbert Reed, Royal Artillery [awarded the George Cross], and Chief Officer Clifford Walter Davies [awarded the M.B.E.]): ‘The ship was attacked by enemy aircraft with cannon, machine-guns and bombs. She replied at once with her defensive armament manned by Chief Officer Davies, Gunner Reed, and Steward Chalker, and the men at the guns went on firing despite the hail of bullets and cannon shell. Gunner Reed behaved with the utmost gallantry. He was badly wounded but when the Master asked how he was, he said that he would carry on. Chief Officer Davies and Steward Chalker were also both wounded, but the brave defence put up by these men drove off the enemy and saved their ship. Gunner Reed then carried Chief Officer Davies from the bridge down two ladders to the deck below and placed him in shelter near a life-boat. Gunner Reed then died. It was afterwards found that his stomach had been ripped open by machine-gun bullets. By his gallant and utterly selfless action Gunner Reed saved the life of Chief Officer Davies.’ Reed, Davies, and Chalker were also all awarded the Lloyd’s War Medal for Bravery at Sea, the citation giving some additional details: ‘The S.S. Cormount, a British collier of 2,841 tons, was attacked on 21 June 1941 by a German bomber from a low level with cannon, machine-guns and bombs. Two bombs struck the starboard side of the ship abreast the bridge; a fourth fell into the sea on the port side. She replied at once with her defensive armament, manned by the Chief Officer at the Schermuly Pistol, a Military Gunner at the Hotchkiss, and a Steward at the Lewis gun. They continued firing despite the hail of bullets and cannon shell. The Military Gunner behaved with unbelievable gallantry. He was badly wounded, but when the attack had ceased, and the Master asked how he was, he said he would carry on. He then insisted on lifting the Chief Officer, who was also badly wounded, from the bridge and down two ladders to the deck below, placing him in shelter near a lifeboat. He then died. It was afterwards found that his stomach had been ripped open by machine-gun bullets. The brave defence put up by these three men, all of whom were wounded, saved their ship, for the enemy was driven off before he could make a last and probably fatal assault. The action of the Military Gunner, utterly selfless and gallant, helped to save the life of the Chief Officer, and was the supreme example of valour in a valiant episode of the war at sea’.
