“IT BECOMES A MEMORY....IT REMAINS A MONUMENT”CHURCHILL, W. S. (Editor). The British Gazette. His Majesty’s Stationary Office, May 5 - May 13, 1926. [33391]
8 issues. A complete set of the British Gazette. All in very good condition, with some browning - one issue more so, and occasional, minimal rubbing at folds; a few edges frayed. Contained in a half brown morocco solander box with gilt to spine and marbled boards. During the the General Strike of 1926, Churchill edited the paper, which was initiated to combat the closing-down of the newspaper offices. It was published from the Daily Telegraph building in Fleet Street, where it was also printed by a volunteer staff.
The British Gazette ran for eight issues between 5 May and 13 May excluding Sunday 9 May. Its circulation figures are of interest, since they will probably never be equalled for relative increase. The figures are: 232,000; 507,000; 655,000; 836,000; 1,801,400; and 2,209,000. The sales for the last issue are not known, but they were well in excess of the 2,000,000 mark.
It used to be thought that only one article could be ascribed to Churchill. It is now assumed that most of the paper was written by him. In the final issue, the article The Birth and Life of the British Gazette closes with the most Churchillian turn of phrase : ‘It becomes a memory; but it remains a monument’. £375

George Newnes’ Strand Magazine (January 1891-March 1950) was the most popular and important British periodical of its time. Geared to the English Victorian middle class, the success of the Strand was intertwined with the writing of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and P.G.Wodehouse. The combination of fiction, current events, informative articles and the promised 'picture on every page' proved a winning formula for the magazine, which proved a popular source for the best in current fiction, featuring the works of some of the greatest authors of the 19th and 20th centuries including H.G Wells, Jules Verne, Leo Tolstoy, H Rider Haggard, Rudyard Kipling, D.H. Lawrence, E.Nesbit, Winston Churchill, Graham Greene, J.B. Priestley, C.S.Lewis, W.E. Johns, and, of course, major contributors Doyle and Wodehouse.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was to prove one of the Strand's most popular (and prolific) writers. Right until his death in 1930, he was a regular and frequent contributor to the magazine, which featured not only his classic 'Sherlock Holmes' investigations but also a wealth of his other short fiction and serialized novels including the hugely successful 'Professor Challenger' stories, his historical fiction, spiritualism and military journalism.
Continuing the tradition started by Doyle, the Strand became a source for new detective and adventure fiction from authors such as Agatha Christie (with Hercule Poirot), G.K. Chesterton (Father Brown), Margery Allingham (Mr. Campion), E.C. Bentley (Trent) 'Sapper' (Bulldog Drummond, Ronald Standish), Edgar Wallace, Leslie Charteris (the Saint), E.Phillips Oppenheim, Dorothy L. Sayers (Lord Peter Wimsey), Georges Simenon (Inspector Maigret), Eric Ambler and Carter Dickson. There were even detective stories from established authors otherwise unknown for their crime writing; notably W. Somerset Maugham and Aldous Huxley. £65

Inscribed at the start of the term which saw Churchill take office once more; He had been a restless and bored leader of the Conservative opposition in the immediate post-war years but following Labour’s defeat in the General Election of 1951, Churchill again became Prime Minister. His third government — after the wartime national government and the brief caretaker government of 1945 — would last until his resignation in 1955. During this period, he renewed what he called the "special relationship" between Britain and the United States, and engaged himself in the formation of the post-war order.

Colonel Sir Mark Sykes, 6th Baronet was an English traveller, Conservative Party politician and diplomatic advisor, particularly about matters respecting the Middle East at the time of World War I. A protege of Lord Kitchener and contemporary of Lawrence of Arabia, Sykes worked at the War Office advising the Cabinet on Middle Eastern affairs; at his instigation the Arab Bureau was created, and it was Sykes who revived ancient Greek and Roman names for Middle Eastern regions, such as ‘Syria’, ‘Palestine’ ‘Iraq’ and ‘Mesopotamia’. He also designed the Flag of the Arab Revolt. Sykes died prematurely in Paris, 1919, while involved in Peace negotiations; he was a victim of the Spanish flu pandemic. In 2008, it was agreed to exhume his body.; his remains were of interest to virologists as he had been buried in a lead-lined coffin, thought likely to have preserved Spanish Flu viral particles intact. Samples taken were to be used for research in the quest to develop defences against the swine flu and future flu pandemics. £195

4 volumes. Finely bound in recent full red morocco with gilt titles and extra gilt to spines, gilt rules to boards, top edges gilt; marbled end papers. A fine and distinguished set of first editions. The four-volume history of the British stem of the English-speaking people and the American branch, covering the period from Caesar's invasions of Britain (55 BC) to the beginning of the First World War (1914). It started in 1937 and was finally published 1956–58, delayed several times due to war and his work on other texts. Churchill was himself half-American on his maternal side, had a firm belief in a so-called "special relationship" between the people of Britain and the Commonwealth of Nations and the people of the United States who had broken with the Crown and gone their own way. His book thus dealt with the resulting two divisions of the "English-speaking peoples".

All First Editions thus. 6 volumes; 8vo. Publisher’s ivory cloth with burgundy title label and titles to spines, Churchill’s signature stamped in burgundy to uppers.
SIGNED and dated by Winston S. Churchill to paste down of vol.I.
Loosely inserted is a typed letter on Chartwell letterhead from Grace Hamblin, Churchill’s longtime secretary, dated July 9, 1952, to ‘Miss Mitchell’. In part: ‘‘I asked Mr. Churchill about the kitten, and he was most grateful... but he does not think he should have another while ‘Mickey’ exists... The book may take some time, but I won’t forget...’’.
Also present is a letter dated 4 August 1983 from Richard Langworth, Churchill’s bibliographer, the next owner of the books, addressed to Miss Hamblin. Apparently he found the first letter, mentioned above, in the signed copy of The Gathering Storm; he is asking her if she remembers her correspondence with Miss Mitchell about the kitten and recalls having had the volume of The Gathering Storm signed for her, as he is ‘‘...wondering if Miss Mitchell’s offer of a kitten caused him to make an exception (in inscribing her book)....’’.
And, finally, a card with an illustration of Jock of Chartwell by Anne Robinson, handwritten by Grace Hamblin, replying to Mr. Langworth ‘‘...I have no recollection of Miss Mitchell,’’ she writes, ‘‘but I feel very sure that your assumption is correct and that her offer of a kitten softened the Master’s heart! His love of cats (and other animals) was well known ...’’.
At the time of Miss Mitchell’s offer, Mickey was serving Sir Winston as Lord Warden of the Cinque Mouseholes. Upon his passing, Jock succeeded him in that distinguished and dangerous job. Neat owner’s name and date to paste down. Boards of volume I waterstained and slightly shaky, others a touch dusty. Generally clean and sound set of one of Churchill’s most famous works, signed by him and with a delightful correspondence attached to it. £3,250

CHURCHILL, Winston S[pencer], [Sir] (1874-1965). Signed photograph, as Prime Minister. [1954]. [31325]
Photograph, boldly inscribed and autographed by the subject on the mount ("Kind regards, Winston S Churchill"), showing Churchill disembarking from Eisenhower’s Presidential aircaft (now termed ‘Air Force One’). The Prime Minister is followed by his son-in-Law Christopher Soames, and other dignataries, who are in turn being welcomed by an official. A classic image of the veteran premier, in tropical three-piece suit complete with bow tie and hat, with trademark cigar and cane in hand. The presidential badge of office is clearly visible to the inside of the opened hatch.
Lightly creased to foot, overall 240 x 190mm, mounted, glazed and framed.
During his second term as PM, and as a tonic from the difficult situation at home and the foriegn crises he was facing, Churchill devoted much of his time in office to the close Anglo-American relations he had so diligently cultivated during WWII, and although Churchill did not get on well with President Dwight D. Eisenhower, he attempted to maintain the special relationship with the United States and made four official transatlantic visits to America during his 1951-55 tenure. £4,750

George Newnes’ Strand Magazine (January 1891-March 1950) was the most popular and important British periodical of its time. Geared to the English Victorian middle class, the success of the Strand was intertwined with the writing of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and P.G.Wodehouse. The combination of fiction, current events, informative articles and the promised 'picture on every page' proved a winning formula for the magazine, which proved a popular source for the best in current fiction, featuring the works of some of the greatest authors of the 19th and 20th centuries including H.G Wells, Jules Verne, Leo Tolstoy, H Rider Haggard, Rudyard Kipling, D.H. Lawrence, E.Nesbit, Winston Churchill, Graham Greene, J.B. Priestley, C.S.Lewis, W.E. Johns, and, of course, major contributors Doyle and Wodehouse.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was to prove one of the Strand's most popular (and prolific) writers. Right until his death in 1930, he was a regular and frequent contributor to the magazine, which featured not only his classic 'Sherlock Holmes' investigations but also a wealth of his other short fiction and serialized novels including the hugely successful 'Professor Challenger' stories, his historical fiction, spiritualism and military journalism.
Continuing the tradition started by Doyle, the Strand became a source for new detective and adventure fiction from authors such as Agatha Christie (with Hercule Poirot), G.K. Chesterton (Father Brown), Margery Allingham (Mr. Campion), E.C. Bentley (Trent) 'Sapper' (Bulldog Drummond, Ronald Standish), Edgar Wallace, Leslie Charteris (the Saint), E.Phillips Oppenheim, Dorothy L. Sayers (Lord Peter Wimsey), Georges Simenon (Inspector Maigret), Eric Ambler and Carter Dickson. There were even detective stories from established authors otherwise unknown for their crime writing; notably W. Somerset Maugham and Aldous Huxley. £45
