Conversation at Whites.
HB [John Doyle]. Printed by C. Mott, 23, Leicester Sq.r.
Published by Tho.s McLean, Haymarket Dec.r 30.th 1830.
Lithograph. Printed area 270 x 325mm (10½ x 12¾"). Tears in edges.
Three men stand in discussion by the fireplace of White's Club, although all are dressed for outside, with top hats. One says ''Of course vested Interest's will be respected, to which another replies ''How! no such thing as vesated Interests in our days''. Another man, seated reading a newspaper, eavesdrops and says ''That is one of S-ft-n's perculiar hits! agad! I'll send it as a hint to HB''. According to McLean's 'Illustrative Key to the Political Sketches of H.B.' (1841): The subject of this conversation appears to be the Reform Bill, then the prominent topic of the day. The dress and figure of the Speaker, who observes that ''vested interests will of course be respected,'' sufficiently prove him, although his face is not seen, to be Sir Francis Burdett; the respondent is the late Earl of Sefton, a nobleman equally eminent for the good things which he said, and for those which he devoured. Though not conspicuous in Parliament, he was a very distinguished and influential member of the Whig party, of which it was sometimes alleged, by their opponents, that Lord Sefton's head contained more sense than the heads of all the rest of the party put together. This species of supremacy, some of his party might not be disposed to allow him; but his taste and judgment in gastronomy were universally admitted. The other figures in the sketch are not portraits.

[White's Club armorial.] Claret. Cogit Amor Nummi.
MDarly Fec.t.
[London: Darly & Edwards, 1756-9.]
Etching. 85 x 120mm (3¼ x 4¾"). Small margins.
A satirical armorial adopted by White's Club, with playing cards, dice, and an arm shaking a dice-box, within a claret bottle ticket held up by an old and young Knave of Clubs. The motto translates as 'Love of money drives them to it'. The satire was the result of a discussion on a wet day at Strawberry Hill, between Horace Walpole, George Williams and painter George Selwyn, intended as a satire on the 'the Old and Young Club' which met at Arthur's, in St James's Street. Walpole had it engraved by Charles Grignon. A carved wooden copy now hangs in White's. This version was engraved by Darly for 'A Political and Satirical History of the Years 1756, 1757, 1758, 1759, 1760, 1761, and 1762', a volume of political and social caricatures covering a pivotal period in the history of Great Britain and the Americas. The letterpress (not present here) describes it as 'The arms of two great Gamesters well known at Arthur's and the Cocoa-tree'.

Paul Whitehead, Esq. of Twickenham. Obiit Dec.r 30 1774 Unhallow'd Hands, this Urn forbear / No Gems, nor orient Spoil, / Lie here conceal'd- but what's more rare / A Heart that Knows no guile
Publishd as the Act directs Sept.r 1 1773 by T. Wright Essex Street, Strand.
Engraving, sheet 205 x 120mm (8 x 4¾"). Trimmed.
Paul Whitehead (1710-74), satirist in the vein of Alexander Pope who also organised events such as a mock Masonic procession along the Strand which was depicted in a satirical print. By the 1750s Whitehead lived at the elegant Colne Lodge on the north side of Twickenham Common. At this time his friends included the painters Francis Hayman and George Lambert, while his portrait was painted by Gainsborough (now lost). Whitehead's last bequest was his heart to his patron Dashwood, now Lord Le Despencer, with £50 for a marble urn in which it could be placed in Dashwood's mausoleum at West Wycombe. The urn containing the heart (shown here) was ceremoniously deposited in the mausoleum at West Wycombe on 16 August 1775 but was later stolen by a tourist.

Letterpress advert. Sheet 180 x 110mm (7 x 4¼"). Laid on album paper.
Charles Whitlaw, a Scottish horticulturist, emigrated to North America in 1794 and spent about two decades collecting botanical specimens, some of which are preserved in the herbarium at the National Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin, Dublin. On returning to Britain, he was proposed for election as a Fellow of The Linnean Society of London, but was black-balled. He established ''patent medicated vapour baths'' in which he employed various North American plants with reputed medicinal properties. Claiming to be able to cure diseases such as scrofula, Whitlaw outraged the medical establishment and he was branded a charlatan and a quack.
