![[The Newbury Coat.] To Robert Throckmorton Esq.re Buckland House Farringdon This Print respresenting the beginning progress & completion of an extraordinary undertaking](jpegs/31236.jpg)
[The Newbury Coat.] To Robert Throckmorton Esq.re Buckland House Farringdon This Print respresenting the beginning progress & completion of an extraordinary undertaking to prove the possibility if Wool being manufactured into cloth and made into a coat between sunrise and sunset, which was successfully accomplished on Tuesday 25th June 1811, Is respectfully dedicated his most obliged and humble Servant John Williams Sand Steward to the late Sir John Throckmorton.
Drawn on Stone by J.W. Giles
London Published by John Mitchell, 33 Old Bond Street.
Lithograph with large margins. Printed area 540 x 740mm (21¼ x 29"). A few creases in the sky.
A composite image showing a race to create a wool hunting coat from scratch in one day, held in Newbury Berkshire. The origin of the event was a comment made by John Coxeter, owner of Greenham Mills in Newbury to Sir John Throckmorton: 'So great are the improvements in machinery I have lately introduced into my mill, that I believe that in twenty-four hours I could take the coat off your back, reduce it to wool, and turn it back into a coat again'. Throckmorton calculated the time required for the various processes, accepting it could be done. Shortly after Throckmorton made a wager a thousand guineas that at eight o'clock in the evening of June the 25th, 1811, he would sit down to dinner in a well-woven, properly-made coat, the wool of which formed the fleeces of sheep's backs at five o'clock that same morning. A holiday was declared so the town could watch (greasy-pole climbing and fencing competitions can be seen to the right), and the race was on. Starting at five in the morning, Coxeter presented the coat to Throckmorton at 6.20, who put the garment on before over five thousand people, and sat down to dinner at eight o'clock in the evening. The sheep that provided the wool were roasted for the spectators. The 'Newbury Coat' is still owned by the Throckmorton family; an identical coat, made in a 1991 re-enactment, is in the West Berkshire Museum in Newbury.

View of the Port and Town of Newcastle upon Tyne, from the Rope Walk Gateshead. Dedicated with Permission to the Right Worshipful the Mayor & Corporation of that Ancient Town by Their obliged and Obedient Servant. T.M. Richardson.
T.M.Richardson pinxit. Engraved by Rob.t Havell & Son. 3 Chapel Str. Tottenham Court Road.
Published Feb.y 1819 by T. M. Richardson, Newcastle.
Coloured aquatint with washed borders. 670 x 470mm. Two tears effecting the washed margins. Reverse has worn areas from an old card backing.
Thomas Miles Richardson, (1784-1848) Having revealed a deep love of drawing he didn't follow this passion until after his fathers death when he accepted a position as Drawing Master at a Newcastle school. In 1813, after six years as both master of St Andrew's and a private drawing master, he resigned his school position to devote his life to painting. Initially his work attracted little local interest, and he found it difficult to make a living as an artist. However, from 1814, he began to gain a wide reputation as a result of his exhibiting works in London, at the Royal Academy and the British Institution. In 1813, after six years as both master of St Andrew's and a private drawing master, he resigned his school position to devote his life to painting. Initially his work attracted little local interest, and he found it difficult to make a living as an artist. However, from 1814, he began to gain a wide reputation as a result of his exhibiting works in London, at the Royal Academy and the British Institution. Richardson continued to live in Newcastle, and so dominate the local art scene. In 1822, his own house in Brunswick Place was used as the venue for the first fine art exhibition to be staged in the North of England. The success of the exhibition led to the foundation of first the Northumberland Institution for the Promotion of Fine Arts, and later the Northern Academy of Arts. In 1831, he also helped to launch the Northern Society of Painters in Water-Colours. A leading exhibiting member of these organisations, he made a particularly notable contribution to the Northern Academy in 1830 with four large paintings. Moot Hall, the Castle Keep, the neo-Gothic spire of St. Nicholas' church ar all visible in this view. Gateshead was a prosperous settlement in the Roman Times, and during the Industrial Revolution and Victorian Era it became one of the focal points for industries in the North East due to its easily accessible port.

[Thomas Pelham-Holles, Duke of Newcastle] The Compleat Vermin-Catcher of G-B-n, or the Old Trap New Baited.
Publish'd according to Act of Parliament April 18th. 1754.
Etching with engraving. 245 x 345mm (9½ x 13½"). Narrow top margin, tear in top of image taped, creasing. Small margins
A satire on parliamentary corruption. The new prime minister, the Duke of Newcastle, sits by the House of Commons, using a fishing rod to lure parliamentary candidates (all on horseback) to support him with promises of advancement. The riders all express their interests, including one saying 'Jews, & no Jews'. This image reflects popular backlash against England’s highly unpopular Jewish Naturalisation Act of 1753, often called the “Jew Bill.” The law allowed Jews to apply for naturalisation through Parliament. It passed easily in the Lords but faced strong Tory opposition in the Commons. Despite this, the Whigs, supporting broader religious tolerance, secured its passage, and it received royal assent. A surge of public antisemitism followed, prompting its repeal in 1754.

Scarce aquatint, printed in sepia. 380 x 505mm (15 x 20"). Trimmed to plate.
A view of GreyFriars, founded 1237, bought by a merchant Robert Anderson after the Dissolution of the Monasteries. It was here that Charles I was held after he surrendered to the Scots Army in 1646, before being handed to Parliament. This view shows the building when owned by Newcastle builder George Anderson (between 1782 and his death in 1798), who converted it into three residences. In 1835 it was demolished by another Newcastle builder, Richard Grainger, during the construction of Grey Street. Newcastle-upon-Tyne.

Thomas Miles Richardson, (1784-1848) Having revealed a deep love of drawing he didn't follow this passion until after his fathers death when he accepted a position as Drawing Master at a Newcastle school. In 1813, after six years as both master of St Andrew's and a private drawing master, he resigned his school position to devote his life to painting. Initially his work attracted little local interest, and he found it difficult to make a living as an artist. However, from 1814, he began to gain a wide reputation as a result of his exhibiting works in London, at the Royal Academy and the British Institution. Richardson continued to live in Newcastle, and so dominated the local art scene. In 1822, his own house in Brunswick Place was used as the venue for the first fine art exhibition to be staged in the North of England. The success of the exhibition led to the foundation of first the Northumberland Institution for the Promotion of Fine Arts, and later the Northern Academy of Arts. In 1831, he also helped to launch the Northern Society of Painters in Water-Colours. A leading exhibiting member of these organisations, he made a particularly notable contribution to the Northern Academy in 1830 with four large paintings. Moot Hall, the Castle Keep, the neo-Gothic spire of St. Nicholas' church ar all visible in this view. Gateshead was a prosperous settlement in the Roman Times, and during the Industrial Revolution and Victorian Era it became one of the focal points for industries in the North East due to its easily accessible port.

Vue Perspective de la Prison de Newgate a Londres.
Dessine par Bourjot Md. de fer.
Se vend a Paris, rue Antoine, No.216, au coin de la rue ci-devant Royale [n.d., c.1790].
Very rare double-page folding engraving with hand colouring. 375 x 580mm, 14¾ x 22¾". A good impression.
A very interesting French view of Newgate Prison, Old Bailey, City of London. Several figures in the inner court include newly-arrived prisoners being separated into male and female groups by men with cudgels (far right). Ship's masts, suggestive of the Thames, are visible in the distance at right. The view is probably imaginary, as can be determined from the hills added on the left, and overgrown classical architecture reminiscent of Piranesi's Rome views on the right. By Ferdinand Bourjot (1768-1840?).
