It contains various bits of news from that time, but most importantly, excerpts of the September 30, 1780 London Gazette with news from Sir Henry Clinton and Lieutenant General Earl Cornwallis of the progress of the American Revolutionary War and General Washington's troop movements in New York State. "Letter from Sir Clinton to Lord George Germain, dated New York, August 14th 1780; "Letter from Sir Clinton to Lord George Germain, dated Long Island, August 20th 1780; "Letter from Lt.

A total of more than 3 columns of reporting on the American Revolutionary War in 1780. The Morning Post was a conservative daily newspaper published in London from 1772 to 1937. General Sir Henry Clinton (1730-1795) was a British army officer and politician who sat in the House of Commons between 1772 and 1795. He is best known for his service as a general during the American War of Independence. First arriving in Boston in May 1775, from 1778 to 1782 he was the British Commander-in-Chief in North America. Lt. General Earl Cornwallis (1738-1805) joined the army in 1757, seeing action in the Seven Years' War. He saw military action in 1776 in the American War of Independence. Active in the advance forces of many campaigns, in 1780 he inflicted an embarrassing defeat on the American army at the Battle of Camden. Cornwallis surrendered his army at Yorktown in October 1781 after an extended campaign through the Southern states, marked by disagreements between him and his superior, General Sir Henry Clinton. Lord George Germain, (1716-1785) was a British soldier and politician who was Secretary of State for America during the American War of Independence.…

A curious artefact, indicating Garbo's iconic status, and an early example of a journalistic trend which has gained ground since the late 1960s. Hayden-Guest, still active as a writer, is the son of the diplomat Peter Haden-Guest, 4th Baron Haden-Guest, and brother of the 5th Baron, Christopher, who is won fame as 'Nigel' in the film 'Spinal Tap'. Anstey, who edited the Daily Telegraph magazine for twenty-two years from its inception in 1964, has been variously described as 'the last of the great autocratic magazine editors', 'tyrannical' and 'completely terrifying', with a habit of sending his employees 'alarming memos on the eve of their summer holidays'. He 'did not often meet his reporters personally, instead, he wrote notes and invited them once a year to the magazine's Christmas party'. While grateful for the money, John Betjeman found working for the magazine 'hateful'. Gitta Sereny, who contributed extensively to what she considered 'the best of the weekend colour supplements', found Anstey 'difficult', but 'extraordinary'. Both are items in fair condition, lightly aged, and stapled together. ONE: Unsigned Carbon Typescript of article titled 'GRETA GARBO - a Personal Memoir Anthony Haden-Guest'. 5pp, long 8vo. Single-spaced on five leaves. As Item Two makes clear the article is a spoof of the 'type of article' which Anstey describes as the 'anti-profile': pretentious and implying in conspiratorial tones an implausible familiarity with the subject. (It is the sort of writing which Martin Amis would begin by satirizing.) The beginning sets the tone: 'Some people, just a few, call her 'Greta', right to her face (That face). Charlie Chaplin does, to name but one. All the same, most people who are so close that they could call her 'Greta' in fact call her 'G. G.'. Acquaintances (But wouldn't that be enough?) call her "Miss Garbo", and a very few indulge her own conspiratorial urges and refer to her as "Miss Brown". As indeed she sometimes does herself. I am indebted for this information to the writings of Mr Norman Zierold who does not say what he calls her, or what she calls him. / Personally, I like to call her, simply, "Greta Garbo".' Further on comes a passage which, like the rest of the article, may or may not be a complete fiction: 'Actually the first time that I was introduced to Greta Garbo was under pretty funny circumstances, but Destiny (as so many of her great motion pictures have pointed out) gets up to some pretty funny things. Certainly it seemed funny to see Garbo at a party, especially this sort of party, a flourescent celebration of . . . Well, not Garbo, though she is incontestably the centre of it all. An acid/rock group is pounding nervily away into the statutory light-machine, and a film is being projected onto a wall, which is white and narrow - so narrow that most of the party is taking place, without artistic licence, in the movie.' Towards the end Haden-Guest stretches the bounds of credulity with the following: 'Great Garbo! Now she is looking at me . . . The ageing roue is nowhere to be seen. Her shoulders are working hugely, and her throat, and the face . . . planes shift as conflicting emotions do massive internal furniture removals, but now Garbo looks so worried, and she says it -, She actually says it - "I want to be alone". / Yes, she is really saying it, and not just once, because she repeats it - "I want to be alone". / Well, yes. Great Garbo want to be alone -'. TWO: Typed Letter Signed ('J A') from John Anstey, 20 March 1970, addressed to 'Anthony Haden-Guest, Esq. | C/o Chateau Marmont | Los Angeles | California | U.S.A.' ('c. c. Pat Kavanagh') 1p, 8vo. He begins: 'Dear Anthony, | I read the Great Garbo article when it first came in. Last night I read it again. It is a difficult one. However, I know that you have misgivings about it - and I fear that I have them too.' Anstey's opinion is that the piece 'just does not work at the moment. 'It does not come across as the sort of "anti-pro.…

1p., 4to, on recto of first leaf of bifolium, with verso of the second addressed by Hale to 'Henry Vose jr. Esq | Counsellor at Law | Springfield | Mass', and carrying Hale's red wax seal, broken into two parts, and a red postmark. Good, on lightly-aged paper. Hale writes that he is enclosing 'the sum with which you were so kind as to accommodate me last week - I don't know how I should have "got along" without it'.

Hale is notable for having introduced regular editorial comment as a newspaper feature.…
