(3) Mutts Silver had been bought by a syndicate headed by Ray Lancaster, editor of the Sporting Life and had been chosen by the greyhound editor Archie Newhouse who had been tasked to find a Derby dog. As the traps rose for the Derby final Mutts Silver unleashed a stunning burst of early speed to slip round in front. Ballybeg Prim made some inroads into the leader's advantage, but Mutts Silver wasn't stopping and beat the favourite by a little over two lengths in 29.38sec. The battle for the accolade greyhound of the year was neck and neck between Mutts Silver and Westmead Champ. The Derby champion had claimed the Select Stakes and Silver Salver in addition to the big one whilst Champ had secured the Regency title alongside the two classic races. A new system of selecting the greyhound of the year was inaugurated; it involved thirteen members of the greyhound press voting for one greyhound each. Mutts Silver and Westmead Champ ended with six votes each and were declared joint winners.

Lot #230 (Sale Order 230 of 737)

Nine original sepia-toned action photographs of W.G. Grace by the celebrated 'Golden Age' cricket photographer George Beldam mounted together with a superb 1903 four-page autographed manuscript letter from W.G. Grace, the 5 by 4in. photographs professionally mounted in cream and suede boards, the letter on London County Cricket Club headed paper, dated 15th September 1903, and addressed to Grace's friend Captain Statham, the letter refers to a match between Gloucestershire and the Gentlemen of Philadelphia which took place in 1889, framed & glazed, overall size 91.5 by 76cm. The photographs of W.G. Grace were taken between 1901 and 1904 by George Beldam at 1/1000th of a second aperture speed, and are amongst the first real action photographs ever taken of a cricketer. What makes these examples so rare and sought after is that there were only two sets of prints ever made; one set for the publication in the book 'Great Batsmen, Their Methods at a Glance', published by MacMillan Press of New York in 1905, and one set for W.G. Grace himself. A copy of the book is being sold elsewhere in this sale as lot 230. Amongst the photographs in the present display are the following originals used in the MacMillan publication: Plate I The Grip Plate IV Stance and First Movement Plate XI Forward Push Stroke Plate XV Beginning of a Square Cut Plate XX A Distinctly Unorthodox Stroke. The hit to square leg from outside the off-stump Plate XXV Mistakes will happen! Here is a perfectly played finish of what must have been a perfectly played straight drive, except that the batsman missed the ball. Two of the photographs in the present display were unpublished in the book: unpub. Lofted drive over mid-on after impact. Side on view. unpub. Straight drive. The follow through, side on view. Also included is a fine original photograph of W.G. bowling round arm, delivering the ball with his hand scarcely more than shoulder high.' This was published as Plate I in the companion book by George Beldam 'Great Bowlers and Fielders, Their Methods at a Glance', publish in 1906 again by MacMillan Press. A copy of this book is being sold elsewhere in this sale as lot 230. All of the photographs offered here were Beldam's own set used for publication, and on close inspection Beldam's own impact lines can be seen on the edge of some of the images. Turning to the W.G. Grace letter, in part, it reads as follows: '' ... IN ANSWER TO YOUR ENQUIRIES RE MY VISIT TO THE BRITANNIA IN 1889, MY SON H.E. GRACE WAS NOT THEN ON THE BRITANNIA AS HE DID NOT JOIN UNTIL JANUARY 1890. IT WAS THROUGH LIEUTENANT ABDY WHO HAD PLAYED WITH ME AT LORD'S THAT I PROMISED TO PLAY. GLOUCESTERSHIRE WERE PLAYING THE GENTLEMAN OF PHILADELPHIA AT BRISTOL ON THE FIRST DAY, AND IT WAS ARRANGED THAT I SHOULD GET DOWN FOR THE SECOND DAY IF I COULD NOT GET DOWN FOR THE FIRST. AS THE MATCH AT BRISTOL WAS NOT OVER, I DID NOT GET TO DARTMOUTH UNTIL LATE IN THE EVENING OF THE FIRST DAY'S PLAY. MY FRIEND ABDY WAS JUST LEAVING THE BRITANNIA AS HE HAD BEEN ORDERED OFF TO THE MANOUVRES, SO TOOK NO PART IN THE SECOND DAY'S CRICKET, LIEUTENANT DE RIBECK WAS DEPUTED TO LOOK AFTER ME WHICH I NEED NOT SAY HE DID RIGHT WELL ... I AM SORRY I DO NOT RECOLLECT MORE DETAILS, BUT TO GO BACK FOURTEEN YEARS IS A LONG TIME BELIEVE ME ...'' The letter, of very good content, also mentions cadet cricket among other topics. It is written and autographed in black ink. Overall, this lot offers a unique, historic and important item of cricket memorabilia.

The boxing trunks worn by Cassius Clay in the fight v Henry Cooper at Wembl

Lot #402 (Sale Order 403 of 737)

The boxing trunks worn by Cassius Clay in the fight v Henry Cooper at Wembley Stadium 18th June 1963, red & white boxing trunks by Ampro of London, signed in ink (now faded, but legible) CASSIUS and then CLAY either side of 'London' on the maker's label, good condition; sold with an original 8 by 6in. b&w press photo, the famous image of Clay on the canvas after being knocked down by Cooper's left hook, ''Enry's 'Ammer''; and a copy of an autobiography of the present vendor (3) Henry Cooper and Cassius Clay met at Wembley Stadium, London on the 18th June 1963 in what was billed as ''An eliminating contest for the Heavyweight Championship of the World''. In the final moments of the fourth round Cooper famously dropped Clay with his trademark left hook, known as ''Enry's 'Ammer''. Unfortunately for Cooper, his opponent's armpit caught in the ropes going down, which prevented his head from striking the canvas covered boards which made up the floor of the ring (something which could easily have knocked him unconscious). Clay stood up and started slowly towards Angelo Dundee who - in violation of the rules - guided him into the corner. At first Dundee talked and slapped Clay's legs, but after a still-dazed Clay misunderstood and tried to get off the stool Dundee used smelling salts in a serious violation of the rules. (British rules did not allow any stimulant but water.) Dundee has since claimed to have opened a small tear in one of Clay's gloves and told the referee that his fighter needed a new pair of gloves, thus delaying the start of the 5th round. Cooper always insisted that this delay lasted anywhere from 3-5 minutes and denied him the chance to try to knock Clay out while he was still dazed, although tapes of the fight suggest it only gained Clay a few extra seconds. Cooper started the 5th round aggressively, attempting to make good his advantage, but a recovered Clay effectively countered and Cooper was hit high on the face with a hard right which opened a severe cut under his eye. Referee Tommy Little was ultimately forced to stop the fight due to Cooper's excessive bleeding, with Clay declared the winner by TKO. These trunks, along with the John Conteh trunks offered in the following lot, were framed and displayed in the boxing-themed public house The Walnut Tree in Yeading near Hayes, Middlesex, in the 1970s. The present consignors were the landlord & lady of the pub and came from a boxing background. The landlady's brother was Boyd Farrer who was a professional boxer but sometimes helped out behind the bar. They had acquired the Cassius Clay trunks at the end of their training period when they acted as relief managers when tenants were away. The final pub they worked at before taking over at The Walnut Tree was at The Plough Inn, one of the oldest Fuller's pubs, located in Tentelow Lane, Norwood Green near Southall in Middlesex. The landlord of the The Plough Inn had been a great supporter of the National Association of Boys' Clubs, a movement that aimed to provide working class boys a place to socialise and have access to positive activities in their leisure time. Cassius Clay had signed his trunks from the Henry Cooper fight and donated them for an auction that was being held for the benefit of the NABC. The buyer was the Landlord of The Plough Inn and he generously gifted the trunks to the present consignors to be displayed in their new establishment The Walnut Tree. The lot includes a copy of the current vendor's autobiography, Keith Saunders's ''Be Lukcy''. An account of the Clay and Conteh (see next lot) trunks being on display at the boxing-themed Walnut Tree pub can be found on p.56.

The weigh-in was conducted at the Odeon, Leicester Square, London. The fight was at Wembley 21st May and Conteh won the fight by a TKO in the 6th round. These trunks, along with the Cassius Clay trunks offered as the previous lot, were framed and displayed in the boxing-themed public house The Walnut Tree in Yeading near Hayes, Middlesex, in the 1970s. The present consignors were the landlord & lady of the pub.

BARTLETT, WINNER OF, THE STUDD TROPHY, 1908, OLYMPIC GAMES CHAMPIONSHIP, 100 KILO [stet] CYCLE RACE, IN RECORD TIME, 2 HOURS 41 MINUTES 48 3/5 SECONDS Charles Henry Bartlett was born in Southwark, London, 6th February 1885. He was affiliated to Polytechnic Cycling Club in London when he won the 100km track race at the White City during the London 1908 Olympic Games. A remarkable achievement not only because he was the youngest competitor in the race, aged 23. As the cyclists set off it was raining very heavily which left parts of the track under water. The weather began to clear after 30 minutes or so but the track remained in a hazardous state and there were many falls and also punctures. One significant retirement from the race was the reigning 100km world champion, Britain's Leon Meredith. The eventual winner Bartlett himself suffered a fall with 30km to go and by the time the judges allowed him to remount with a new machine he was nearly a lap behind the leaders. He somehow found reserves of energy to chase down the field and then maintain a full sprint in the last mile to claim a memorable victory by two lengths from fellow Brit Charles Denny, with Octave Lapize of France claiming bronze. Bartlett's brave and determined performance lasted long in the memory of all who were there. As well as being awarded the gold medal, Bartlett was awarded the magnificent Prince of Wales Cup. This was one of eight challenge prizes awarded at the 1908 London Olympic Games, and the only one with Royal provenance. For the record the other prizes were the Brunetta Statuette for Rowing, the Brunetta Trophy for Swimming, The Football Associations Trophy, The Gold and Silversmiths' Cup for Wrestling, The Hurlingham Trophy for Polo, The International Cup for Fencing and Lord Westbury's Cup for Clay Bird Shooting. Charles Bartlett took up cycling at the age of 16 in 1901 with the Prince Alfred CC and won several club championship titles before moving to Polytechnic. Away from the Games, he won the NCU 50 miles tandem-paced title in 1908 and again in 1909 and broke several tandem-paced and motor-paced records. After his retirement, Bartlett built up a successful packing business but maintained an active interest in cycling and served as President of the Pickwick BC, England's premier bicycling club. He died in Enfield aged 83 30th November 1968.
