Fifteen poems with, tipped-in, two original accomplished watercolours, one showing a view of Robert Taylor Drive in what was Rhodesia at the time it was painted, the other a view of Itchen estuary. The latter accompanie…s the poem ''Itchen Estuary: Bitterne''. A handwritten note explains that the father of the poet's wife Eva ''once had a farm above the estuary''. Most of the poems are set in Zimbabwe where the British-born poet spent most of his life, with a long career as a teacher. There are a few minor corrections in the author's hand.Signed and dated in 1985 by the author. Presentation copy from him, inscribed on the verso of the first blank: ''Walter Allen - with thanks and good wishes''.Some mottling to the covers. Internally fine.

Condición: Very good plus. First Edition. Hand-corrected typescript chapter from Protheroe's "Budge and Betty" children's adventure series, with five original pen-and-ink drawings and one watercolor painting for use in the completed book. Ernest Hanley Protheroe was an extremely prolific writer and illustrator of both fiction an…d nonfiction for children, under his own name as well as assorted pseudonyms. The "Budge and Betty" series featured twins who travel together to the dominion of the Frost King at the North Pole, the Americas, Fairyland, and other real and unreal places. This chapter, with original draft illustrations from the 1929 book to which it belongs - BUDGE AND BETTY IN FAIRY TOWN (London, Renwick of Otley) - outfits its child-heroes in bobbed haircuts, dropped-waist dresses, and sailor collars, and takes them through the landscapes of several classic fairytales accompanied by several much less fashionable elves. A small but revealing archive from this noted children's author. 11'' x 8.5'' (typescript). [17]-page typescript manuscript, typed rectos only, with hand corrections in pencil. Five pen-and-ink drawings over pencil on watercolor boards (assorted sizes), with pencil notations for book placement, one watercolor painting on board with tissue guard. Five additional proofs of the same illustrations, all printed in black and white. Light edgewear. Corner creasing and a few small tears to manuscript leaves.

From the Macqueen-Pope papers. The occasion of the article was the forthcoming premiere of Rattigan's play 'The Sleeping Prince', Olivier's production of which, at the Phoenix Theatre in London, opened on 5 November 1953. The movie rights were bought by Marilyn Monroe, and the Hollywood film appeared in 1957 as 'The Prince and t…he Showgirl', with Olivier reprising his stage role, and Rattigan also writing the filmscript. See the entries on the Oliviers and Macqueen-Pope in the Oxford DNB. Interest in Beauchamp's novels has grown in recent years. All three of the present items are lightly-aged and in fair condition; the first two somewhat creased at extremities, the third less so. Item One with rust spots to one corner from paperclip. ONE: ALS from 'Barbara Beauchamp / Fiction Editor', Newnes & Pearson's, London, 15 September 1953. 1p, 12mo. Sheila Gould has informed her that MP 'will be able to write us a 1,500 word feature article on the new Terence Rattigan play, which the Oliviers are appearing in'. The publishers are planning the feature 'as a double spread in our issue of the 5th November, which is, incidentally, both the opening night, and, I believe, Vivien Leigh's birthday'. She asks for the article before the end of the month, and suggests 'a payment of forty guineas for British Empire serial rights'. The following two items are typed on 4to leaves of cartridge paper. TWO: Carbon of MP's covering TL to Beauchamp, 24 September 1953. 1p, 4to. With short autograph pencil filing note by MP. Begins: 'Here you are - the Olivier and Leigh First Night story - not critical naturally as being written before the event - but an attempt to show the whys and wherefores of the importance of this occasion and a little of the Theatre atmosphere.' He asks her to excuse his typing: 'being in the middle of hectic rehearsals at Drury Lane and without a secretary throws it all on me'. In a postscript he suggests a future article on 'the inside story of a first night'. THREE: Duplicated Typescript of MP's article, 'This is Real Theatre / The Oliviers Return to Town / by / W. Macqueen-Pope'. It does not seem to have been published in book form, nor does it appear to have left a digital footprint. 6pp, 4to, with each page on its own leaf. Double-spaced. MP begins in anticipation of a first night 'providing a thrill which no other type of entertainment can give, a thrill beyond anything which the Films, the Circus, Radio or Television can compass, and which even Grand Opera never reaches in general appeal', when 'the Leader of his Profession and his Leading Lady take the stage again'. He places the occasion within a wide context, with historical references beginning with 'the first true Theatre in Europe - that playhouse so rightly called The Theatre, in Shoreditch, where it arose in 1576'. After mentioning a number of notables in the history of the London stage, he praises Rattigan's play, of which he gives a synopsis. He continues in fulsome terms: 'Everybody who is Anybody - and a sprinkling of those who are not - will be there. [.] It will be like one of the great days of old. [.] an Occasion of Occasions'.

Michael Howard's obituary of Ticehurst in The Times, 30 October 1975, describes him as 'a persuasive pioneer among those who sought to reestablish the harpsichord as a serious musical instrument'. ONE: Carbon typescript, 7pp., 4to. Headed 'Harpsichord to Australia | by John Ticehurst.' With a few minor manuscript marks. In autog…raph next to the title: 'April 1951/Feb 1952'. In good condition, on lightly-aged paper, with slight rust staining from paperclip. A sprightly account, apparently unpublished, beginning: 'I must admit that when the idea first originated of a harpsichord tour in Australia, the difficulties of such an undertaking seemed somewhat formidable. But the idea of introducing the harpsichord to audiences on the other side of the world who had for the majority neither seen nor heard one 'in the flesh," coupled with the project of meeting cousins whom we had always promised to visit "someday," [sic] let alone a daughter out in Canberra on a two-year contract, finally proved an inducement great enough to determine us to overcome the obstacles.' He describes the difficulties surrounding the transportation of his 'eighteenth-century KIrkman' across the world, and its arrival at the first venue, Sydney University's Great Hall, with 'not a string broken, not a jack sticking, nor - the worst of nightmares - a cracked soundboard'. From Sydney he travels to Canberra, Brisbane and Melbourne, before returning to Sydney. In conclusion he sums up the trip as 'a strenuous time, but a most interesting bit of musical pioneering, which one felt had been really worthwhile'. TWO: Slip of paper, intended to provide the caption for the reverse of a photograph. Heavily damaged. Reads: 'Harpsichordist John Ticehurst | (of England) with his harpsichord at Adelaide Town Hall set up his instrument & having correctly balansed [sic] same played 3 short pieces (on request) to appreciative press reps.' THREE: Programme handbill (2pp., 8vo) for recital by 'John Ticehurst | On his Return from AUSTRALIAN TOUR', and Viola da Gamba player Francesca Palmer, at London's Wigmore Hall, 28 May [1952]. With photographs of the performers. FOUR.
