No Binding. Condition: Good. Two very rare documents, (2), (2)pp, each printed on official British Government Crown and Stationery Office (SO) watermarked foolscap. Good with single horizontal fold, creased and tanned with some spotting and a couple of short closed tears. Undated c1941-42. No author or publisher is indicated, but they appear to have been issued as part of the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan, also known as the Empire Air Training Scheme, or "The Plan". This remains the largest scheme of its kind, covering almost half the pilots, navigators, bomb aimers, air gunners, wireless operators and flight engineers in the RAF, Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm, RAAF, RCAF, and RNZAF. Parallel to this, the South African Air Force ran a programme for its own aircrew and other Allied air forces. This pair of cross-referring notes informs pilots about dust and sandstorms encountered along the route to India via the Western (Libyan) Desert, Arabia and the Gulf. NOTE 2 explains the conditions necessary for these to occur in the Western Desert, with Mediterranean cold fronts being the "the most frequent cause", and various types of depressions including over Palestine and Syria. NOTE 3 adds observations on sandstorms in Winter, Spring and Summer driven by the switch between the NE and SW Monsoon over the Arabian Sea and India, the Shamal over western Persia, the Sirocco over Palestine, Syria and western Iraq, etc. Sandstorms can extend further east along the route to Persia and Baluchistan, while dust haze extends SE over the Gulf to Bahrain and possibly beyond.

Condition: Good. Color aquatint. Framed by Vandevoorde, Paris. 407 x 505mm. sheet size. 311x 400 mm. image size wtihout text.From the series: Portraits of the Winning Horses of the Great St. Leger Stakes at Doncaster.,John Frederick Herring Sr. was an English sporting and equestrian painter. It is said that before becoming an artist, he drove a stagecoach. Whether or not this is true, it is evident from his paintings that he was deeply familiar with horses, their posture and personalities, and the specific details of their surroundings. He specialized in painting English thoroughbred racehorses and farmyard scenes such as these, and they were frequently made into prints. His son, J.F. Herring, Jr., continued the family tradition, painting similar horse and sporting scenes.Charles Hunt was a British engraver of horse and sporting subjects active during the 19th century. He came from a family of engravers and was noted for his fine engravings after Pollard, Alken, Herring and other painters working in the genre.Tooley, 261; Lane, British Racing Prints p.121; Mellon British Sporting and Animal Prints p.94; Siltzer pp. 145-147.…

Colour-printed aquatint by R.G. Reeve, finished by hand and heightened with gum arabic. An excellent impression in fine condition. Image size: 11 3/4 x 16 5/16 inches. A fine print from the 'Winners of the Great St. Leger Series': a 'benchmark' sporting print in terms of the "quality of painting, engraving and printing" (Lane) John Frederick Herring, senior "was born in Surrey in 1795. [He] spent the first eighteen years of his life in the city of London, where his father, an American whose parents were Dutch, was a fringe-maker in Newgate Street. As a child he showed an aptitude for handling both whip and pencil. Having married against his father's wishes, he went, without settled plans, to Doncaster, where he arrived during the races in September 1814, and saw the Duke of Hamilton's horse William win the St. Leger. The sight inspired him to attempt the art of animal-painting, in which he subsequently excelled. At first he did not succeed as an animal-painter, but executed some satisfactory work in coach-painting, which led him to aspire to drive a coach. For two years he drove the Nelson coach from Wakefield to Lincoln. He was afterwards transferred to the Doncaster and Halifax coach. While he was engaged on that road, his artistic powers, which he continually exercised, were discovered and appreciated, and he received many commissions to paint horses for gentlemen in the neighbourhood. In spite of increasing success as a painter of horses, he refused to hurriedly abandon his calling as coachman, and for some time drove the Highflyer coach between London and York. When eventually he retired from the road and settled at Doncaster, he immediately obtained very numerous commissions. It was as the portrait-painter of racehorses that Herring earned his especial fame, and no great breeder or owner of racehorses is without some treasured production of Herring's brush." (DNB). "In 1825 The Doncaster Gazette commissioned Herring to paint a series of pictures of the winners of the St. Leger starting in 1815. W. Sheardown and Sons of Doncaster published these brilliantly engraved prints (by Thomas Sutherland) in 1825. Messrs Fuller of London. continued the series until the mid-1840s. Fullers also published a similar series of Derby winners after Herring's paintings between 1827 and 1841. These prints provide a 'benchmark' in their quality of painting, engraving and printing which subsequent publishers attempted to emulate, but rarely with such success" (Charles Lane British Racing Prints p.120) Lane, British Racing Prints p.121; Mellon, British Sporting and Animal Prints 96; Siltzer, The Story of British Sporting Prints, p.145; Muir, A Descriptive Catalogue of the Engraved Works of J. F. Herring, Senior (1795 to 1865), p. 84. …
