Foreword by the d/w illustrator Tom Adams whose gallery this was.

A search on the web revealed the following: 'In 1967 Adams opened the Fulham Gallery, which not only gave first exhibitions of some now famous artists, but was for several years the center of the late '60's phenomenon - the poetry print. With C.Day-Lewis (the Poet Laureate) and artist Joseph Herman and John Piper, Adams produced the investiture print for the Prince of Wales. Adams also designed posters for Mark Boyle's light shows (The Sensual Laboratory), going on tour with The Jimmy Hendrix Experience and The Soft Machine. His connection with the modern world of rock music continued when he met Lou Reed, an admirer of his Christie and Raymond Chandler covers. Reed asked Adams to design the cover for his first UK solo album. As a result of this friendship with Lou Reed, Andy Warhol offered to sponsor of exhibition of Tom's work in New York. Adams did eventually work in the States in the early 70's where he was asked by Marshall Arisman to teach at the New York Central School of Art.' Very good indeed. B23724 £60

ANNIGONI Pietro. UNTITLED SIGNED PRINT (VERONA: OFFICINA BODONI, 1975) LIMITED EDITION Ranelagh Editions, London, 1975 A 17.5 x 12 inch print, hand-printed at the Officina Bodoni and signed and numbered (475 were printed) by the artist. It was originally commissioned to accompany an anthology of speeches on the theme of European Union (Europe: The Quest for Unity (London: Ranelagh Editions, 1975)), and may be taken to depict an image of hope emerging from a landscape of bodies either dispossessed or slain by war. Insofar as the image is both allegorical and rough-hewn, it is an atypical Annigoni piece. However, its style of draughtsmanship, sense of composition and emphasis upon perspective all pay a marked homage to the Italian Renaissance masters; and a deep allegiance to the techniques of the latter were what, rather than a rejection of abstract art per se, defined Annigoni's unusual place in the story of twentieth century art. A noteworthy image in excellent clean condition. A66006 £90

Annigoni (1910-1988) was a fresco and portrait painter from Florence, Italy. His work was influenced by Renaissance painting and he became well known for his portraits of Queen Elizabeth II, John F. Kennedy and other notable people. The collection consists of: 23 hand-written letters, on headed, 6.5x4' notecards from Annigoni. All are signed: Pietro, and one has his full signature. Nearly all are written on both sides (two of which continue on a second notecard) and average between 100-200 words. Nearly all are on the subject of their book, from answering questions through to royalties, and Leslie Frewin is mentioned several times. There are also two pictorial postcards (one of his own work). 36 quarto pages (8x13') of questions and answers. These questions were initially typed by Wraight and answered, in pen, by Annigoni: approx 5000 words. As research for the book, they are all about the artist and cover all aspects of his life and work. Headings include: childhood, marriage, Paul Getty, trip to USA and Mexico, first London trip, painting the Queen, Maharanee of Jaipur and Julie Andrews, and the car crash which killed his friend and disfigured his ear. Also includes: 9.5x7' signed print of a sketch of figures in an Italian town. A quarto, 9 page, uncorrected typed manuscript 'Annigoni draws a portrait of Pope John XXIII'. 6 unused postcards. Humorously annotated photograph of Annigoni and his wife, Rossella. 2 photographs of both men together in Florence. Hand-written paint formula of the Old Masters. 10x7' print by Simone Martini with ink notes and sketches on the reverse. There is also a small collection from his wife, Rossella, after his death: a letter about his death, a Christmas message on one of his greetings cards and an information pack about the (roughly translated) Friends of Annigoni Association for Solidarity among People.

ANONYMOUS (George Glenny.) GEORGE GLENNY: HORTICULTURAL HORNET. TYPED MANUSCRIPT WITH CORRECTIONS. 1986? Foolscap spring back binder with 279 typed pages (recto only) with many excisions, hand written corrections and additions. This is an unpublished book - a comprenhensive life of Glenny the fruit of painstaking and probably unrepeatable research with an emphasis on the slightly scurrilous side of GG's career. A note loosely inserted in the book by another Glenny expert Will Tjaden accuses the book of 'dwelling ad nauseam on his endless repetion of scurrility..' The DNB says of him:- 'George Glenny (1793ñ1874), landscape gaerdener and writer on horticulture, became interested in gardening at an early age, after seeing a bed of tulips in Walworth, and helped by his father he started a garden in Spitalfields and began to grow tulips, hyacinths, and auriculas. In 1832 he helped to found the Metropolitan Society of Florists and Amateurs, and in 1833 he became a fellow of the Horticultural Society. He began to exhibit flowers at the Chiswick shows, with great success. The story was told that he once entertained fifty-seven guests at his table, and was able to set before each individual a silver cup won as a prize for showing auriculas, dahlias, tulips, and roses as an amateur. However, because Glenny criticized the judging at the Chiswick show in 1838 he was censured by the council of the Horticultural Society in 1839. He also organized shows himself for the Metropolitan Society and in his own garden at Worton Lodge, Isleworth, where he had moved in 1835. Glenny was bankrupt again in 1839, after three shows in his newly built floricultural hall at Stafford House, Chiswick, failed to attract many people. Glenny spent many years trying to improve the English tulip, publishing details of the ideal tulip towards which growers should aspire; during his lifetime, probably as a result of his efforts, the appearance of the English tulip changed dramatically. Glenny's first writings appeared in the Antigallican Monitor, and he subsequently edited a number of other journals. With the consent of Queen Adelaide he started the Royal Ladies' Magazine in 1830. He began to write seriously on horticultural subjects in 1832, when he started the Horticultural Journal, which was published until 1839. He also began the papers entitled 'Properties of flowers', originally published in the Horticultural Journal between 1832 and 1835. These were reprinted in 1864, and were his most important works. Glenny started the Gardener's Gazette, the first weekly gardening newspaper, in 1837, and edited various other periodicals, including the Garden Journal, the Practical Florist, and Glenny's Journal. After his bankruptcy in 1839 Glenny was forced to sell the Gardener's Gazette; but he remained as editor for a time. From 1841 he earned his living by writing on horticulture and did much to popularize gardening among the working population. He was the first garden journalist to have a column in a popular newspaper, Lloyd's Weekly London Newspaper, for which he wrote from 1852 until his death in 1874. In addition to journalism, Glenny was engaged in publishing many books, including Gardening for the Million (1838), which went into its seventeenth edition in 1849, Cottage Gardening (1847), Glenny's Handbook to the Flower Garden and Greenhouse (1851), and The Gardener's Every-Day Book (1863). Glenny was one of the founders of the Royal Gardeners' Benevolent Institution in 1839, and he subscribed the first 20 guineas. Glenny died at his home, Paxton Villa, Colby Road, Gipsy Hill, Norwood, Surrey, on 17 May 1874. His son, George Glenny, a gardener at Paxton House nurseries, Fulham, continued to publish Glenny's Almanac, which his father had started in 1837.' Very good indeed. A40832 £200

MANUSCRIPT NOTEBOOK OF AN 1841 TRIP TO PARIS. 1841 Small 8vo. 52 pages of a soft leather covered 200 page notebook of which 30 pages are written on in a legible hand. Over 5000 words. An account of a trip to Paris by an upper class young Englishman with many connections to French upper class and aristocratic families - there is much mention of comtes, ducs and marquises. The man is probably young and unattached as he has a keen eye for female beauty esp among young women. He is, however, also keen on cathedral architecture and there are several descriptions (inc small drawings) of the interiors of important churches. He stays with his family at the Hotel de Bristol. At one point he attends a lecture given by Victor Hugo (good detail given of content, acoustics etc.,) and also meets people who had known Napoleon and who give several personal anecdotes of the great man. He also associates in Paris with a Mr. Tichborne, probably a member of the famous 'claimant' family who it is known were living in Paris at the time. The best clue to his identity is the note 'I have but 2 relatives of my grandmother Seymours - Admiral de Moges and the Marquis de Saint Simon..'
