Description:
Fordingbridge, Hampshire: Castle Hill Press, 2000. First and Limited edition. Hardcover. This is the publisher's full goatskin binding of the limited edition. Of a total planned edition of 702 copies (as printed on the limitation statement), only about 500 were ultimately issued, of which 40 were bound thus in full brown goatskin with triple gilt rule front cover border, gilt spine print, all edges gilt, head and foot bands, and striking marbled endpapers. These goatskin-bound copies feature special, supplemental content, containing 16 pages of facsimiles, including the working draft of an apparently unpublished essay on Lawrence by Henry Williamson which we believe is available in print only here. This copy is hand numbered “52” on the limitation page. Condition is immaculately fine, with no discernible wear, flaws, signs of use, or previous ownership marks. The volume is housed in the publisher's rigid slipcase, also in fine condition, featuring brown cloth caps and lighter brown laid-paper…

London: Punch, 1953. This original printed appearance of a Punch cartoon featuring Winston S. Churchill comes from the personal collection of Gary L. Stiles, author of Churchill in Punch (Unicorn Publishing Group, 2022). His book is the first ever effort to definitively catalog, describe, and contextualize all of the many Punch cartoons featuring Churchill. This cartoon titled "THE THIRD MAN" appeared thus on p.675 of the 10 June 1953 issue of Punch. The artist is Leslie Gilbert Illingworth. British Prime Minister Winston S. Churchill and U.S. President Dwight Eisenhower were preparing to meet in Bermuda, where they had invited the French, who were squabbling at the time over their relationship. In the background, West Germany's Konrad Adenaeur rows over, hoping to join them. The conference was postponed until December, following Churchill's stroke on 25 June. It would include French President Lanie, but not Adenauer. Punch or The London Charivari began featuring Churchill cartoons in 1900, when…

This original Second World War American propaganda poster features the image and words of British Prime Minister Winston S. Churchill. In large white print, angled above an image of the gesticulating and bespectacled Prime Minister, is the title “till Death or Victory”. Below ChurchillÂ’s face, printed in black on a downward slanted white faux paper fragment, is an excerpt from ChurchillÂ’s 15 February 1942 broadcast, “When I survey and compute the power of the United States, and its vast resources, and feel that they are now in it with us, with the British Commonwealth of Nations, all together, however long it lasts, till death or victory, I cannot believe there is any other fact in the whole world which can compare with that.” The excerpt terminates with ChurchillÂ’s facsimile signature “Winston S. Churchill”. The lower left corner states “One of a series of posters sponsored by The National Industrial…

2, Swan Court, Market Street, Manchester: William Hough & Sons, 1 January 1906. First edition, only printing. Leaflet. This extravagantly rare leaflet publication potentially unique thus is the first edition, only printing, of Winston S. Churchills Address to the Electors of North-West Manchester, published on 1 January 1906 in the run up to the first election he contested as a Liberal. Of the three copies known to us, this is the only privately-held copy and the sole example to retain the canvassing leaf insertion inviting the undersigned to declare intention to support the candidature of Mr. WINSTON S. CHURCHILL at the forthcoming General Election. The leaflet consists of a single 16.5 x 10.625 inch (41.91 cm x 26.99 cm) sheet folded once vertically to form four 8.25 x 10.625 inch (20.96 x 26.9 cm) panels.

In this image, Churchill, as Father Christmas, offers rebuilt industry and infrastructure, items essential for the long-term success of Britain. But the public, pointing, wants what's symbolically out of reach on the high shelf - "Security, Tax Relief, Peace in Korea, Lower Cost of Living, and Sterling Stability." Punch or The London…

'SOMETHING HAS TURNED UP.'" Winston holds aloft a note from French President ("Poincare") reading "I hope to be in a position to pay you Six Million Pounds on account." Winston is portrayed as "Micawber" - a clerk in Dickens's novel David Copperfield - who is a perpetual optimist believing that something good will pop up. Churchill, then Chancellor of the Exchequer, was dealing (or not, from the perspective of the cartoonist) with French debt from the First World War.…

Description:
London: Drury Lane Press, 1941. First edition. Leaflet. Here is a set of three Second World War "Talking Points" leaflets. Each is printed in black on both sides of a single sheet of cheap 8.5 x 11 inch wartime paper. All three leaflets are in very good plus condition. Each sheet of paper is crisp with only light even browning and a single horizontal crease in its center. These leaflets present a bit of a mystery as we find no indication of authorship and no record of any issue of Talking Points in either WorldCat or Copac. Even its publisher, Drury Lane Press, is elusive as the only record we find is a 1943 inventory in the UK National Archives. Each issue is dedicated to a single week in January of 1941(8-14, 15-22, and 22-29) and focuses on methods of Nazi propaganda. An unusual wartime artifact.

New York: The British Library of Information, 1940. First edition, only printing. Pamphlet. This is the first edition, only printing of Churchill's December 23, 1940 address to the Italian People. The end of 1940 found Britain having escaped the imminent threat of invasion, but nonetheless beleaguered and pinning many hopes on the United States, which was still months away from approving the Lend Lease Act and nearly a year from formally entering the war. "With his thoughts focused on the many dangers in the Aegean and Mediterranean, Churchill broadcast on the evening of December 23 to the Italian People." (Gilbert, Volume VI, p.960). The eight-page, wire-stitched pamphlet measures 6 x 9 inches (15.2 x 22.9 cm). Condition is near-fine. The paper is bright, clean, and crisp showing virtually no wear. The only flaw is a small .25 inch (.64 cm) roughly circular blemish at the upper right edge of the front cover. The pamphlet is protected within a removable, clear, archival mylar sleeve. Churchill…
