WILLIAM KENNETT LOFTUS (BRITISH 1820-1858): AN AUTOGRAPHED LETTER SIGNED 'WM. KENNETT LOFTUS' ADDRESSED TO 'BLACKLOCK' WITH MENTION OF JAMES DAVID FORBES (SCOTTISH 1809-1868) AND OTHERS, A four page signed letter to a Mr. Blacklock mentioning the damage sustained to some specimens destined for the museum. With mention of the Geological Society, British Museum, Edward Forbes and others. Reads: My dear Blacklock, I called at Dowgate Wharf on Wednesday and Mr Nichol, having got the order from …. Lynch, promised to have the box at his place this morning. I regret to say that on opening the lid, a wretched scene presented itself. Altho’ the box was lined with tin and every care taken with soldering, which was done under my own inspection, the sea water had got in & completely destroyed the skins with the exception of 5 or 6 which are much damaged. I have not looked over the plants, but they must be in wretched plight also, since the paper is of course wet thro’ - the only things which have escaped wholly uninjured are the germs and seeds in bottles! I pitched the refuse into the Thames, & have taken possession of the few skins, & till an opportunity offers of sending them since they are positively not worth the carriage to …. alone. It is much to be regretted that the specimens are lost since they were all exceedingly fine ones and would have been an interesting & valuable addition to the museum. I strongly suspect that the heat of the two summers at Baghdad has melted the soldering, and hence the cause of the damage done. One of the boxes for the Br. Museum was in a similar state. I was at the annual meeting of the Geological this afternoon when Hopkins (the president) gave us a grand geologico-geometrical address, - and our friend Edw Forbes is the president elect. - Give my best remembrance to Mr Alder, Charlton & to all friends & believe me, Truly Yours, W Kennet Loftus. Further… I was extremely sorry that I was unable to call on Mr when in Martle…. ? There appears to have been some charge on the box from …… I shall write Lynch to look it. Feb - 18. 1853.

Mon 29 Jul

Olympic Games/ Summer, 1924/ Paris/ Hurdler. A superb hardwood jewelry box, the artist has carved a superb hurdler into the colored lid, near the engraved words "Olympiade de Paris 1924". Here he is on the hurdle, and it's a safe bet that Géo André (1889-1943) was the inspiration for this creation. He was the star of the French team, the flag-bearer, the champion chosen to take the oath, a double choice dictated by an extraordinary career and life: Olympic high jump vice-champion in London in 1908, decathlete, rugby international (13 times), war hero, bronze medallist at the Antwerp Games (4x400), he represented, at 34, the nobility of French sport.And in direct relation to this unique piece, Géo had failed to reach the foot of the podium (4th against 4 Americans) at the Antwerp Games in 1920, precisely in the 400m hurdles. Diameter: 9.5 cm, height: 5 cm.

Salvador DALI (1904-1989) E.G.I France BOITE A BIJOUX rectangulaire gainée de skaï marron à motifs Daligramme ouvrant à un abattant en partie haute découvrant deux casiers et un plateau et un tiroir en partie basse. Intérieur gainé de velours moutarde à motifs losangiques. Charnières en laiton doré. Serrure en façade avec sa clé. Haut. 13 cm ; Larg. 29 cm ; Prof. 19 cm Si l’activité de Salvador Dalí devait se résumer en un mot, nous pourrions choisir celui de protéiforme. Ses créations artistiques multi-supports semblent, tous les jours, nous paraître un peu plus complètes. Si nous pensions déjà connaître l’artiste peintre, sculpteur, réalisateur ou encore auteur, c’est au créateur de mode que nous sommes aujourd’hui confrontés. Cet exceptionnel ensemble signé Salvador Dalí résulte d’une histoire Daliesque comme on n’en fait plus. Au tournant des années 1970, Salvador Dalí décide, conjointement avec son bras droit et homme de confiance : John Henri Moore, de s’attaquer au marché de la Mode et de la Maroquinerie. Pour ce faire, ils s’associent à la société E.G.I France (Editions Graphiques Internationales) afin de mettre en œuvre une collection de diverses pièces de bagagerie, maroquinerie et petite maroquinerie destinées à être commercialisée au plus grand nombre. La production est lancée, les meilleurs artisans de Paris sont sélectionnés et la production est exposée dans les vitrines passantes des boutiques parisiennes ou belges, dont la société Lancel. En 1971, les premières campagnes publicitaires sont publiées et l’échantillon produit par EGI France -que nous présentons aujourd’hui - est exposé. Elle en fait la promotion dans son numéro de décembre 1971 en titrant « Emporter Dalí en voyage, c’est assez extraordinaire. Et possible (…) ». Sauf que l’aventure tourne court, brutalement, dans les quelques mois qui suivent cette campagne publicitaire. « On arrête tout » mentionne un simple télégramme adressé aux gérants d’EGI France. Pourquoi cette collaboration meurt-elle dans l’œuf ? Pourquoi une campagne pourtant prometteuse doit-elle s’arrêter ? Nous ne le savons pas. Reste que la production, en nombre très limitée, reste sur les étalages des maroquiniers pour arriver, le 2 août 2024, sur les cimaises de Côte Basque Enchères. Outre, les rares pièces vendues au lancement de la collection, un ensemble d’une telle envergure reste inédit sur le marché de l’Art. D’une grande qualité de manufacture, les quelques vingt échantillons que nous présentons ont toujours été soigneusement conservés par ceux qui les ont créés, assemblés. Produit à titre d’échantillons de vente, ils présentent bien sûr quelques usures et traces du temps passé mais reflètent véritablement un pan de l’Histoire contemporaine de la Mode.

Known as the 'clamshell' and inspired by the colorful line of G3 iMacs, the original iBook was introduced in 1999 to much success, targeting the entry-level consumer and education markets. Vestiges of its distinctive design are still seen across Apple's notebook lineups: the iBook moved interface ports from the back to the sides (and left them uncovered), omitted a latch for the computer's lid, and provided multiple color options. The original iBook is on exhibition at the London Design Museum and the Yale University Art Gallery. This complete lineup of all five colors—each in its distinctive, matching box—makes for an impressive display.
