VIEWING ARRANGEMENTS All lots will be on view up to and during the auction on the day of sale. Horse-drawn carriages should

of their arrival.
WITHDRAWN OR NOT FORWARD LOTS Despite our best endeavours to ensure that all lots catalogued come forward for sale we are
at the mercy of individual vendors some of whom regrettably do not always send the lots entered. This inevitably causes frustration
and annoyance to prospective customers who may have travelled long distances for a particular lot. To avoid such disappointment
we recommend that you make a phone call to check the availability to any particular “one off” lot before setting out.

given a Buyer’s Number to enable bidding and assist the cashiering arrangements. The Auctioneers reserve the right to request a

at the standard rate will be added to purchasers’ accounts in respect of these lots. No VAT will be payable upon the items consigned
by unregistered vendors. Any known variation in the VAT status of vendors will be announced by the Auctioneers when selling.
CLEARANCE All lots should be cleared on the day of sale, unless alternative arrangements are made, and remain at the risk of the

INSTRUCTIONS TO BID will be executed with care and judgment by the Auctioneers. Clients who are interested in lots which are due
to be offered in more than one section of the sale at the same time are reminded of this free service.
PRIVATE SALES All lots are accepted on the understanding that they must not be sold prior to being auctioned, and any private
transactions resulting from the exposure for sale of any items must be conducted through the Auctioneers.
INSURANCE Carriage House Insurance Services and the National Farmers Union can effect transit and longer term insurances, which

buttoned leather with navy patterned
carpet. The doors are mounted

embellishments, with carriage lace and
leather backed straps to the windows,

a mirror, and finished with silk blinds on still functioning spring
rollers, with tassel ends. There are fine hat cords to the top and

boot is hinged at the base and opens to reveal a pair of zinc lined
cellarettes, sectioned to hold bottles, topped with a drawer lined

treads on the square profile steps, ladder and handbrake ratchet.
It retains the pole, bars and spares, ladder and drag shoe, plus
a particularly deep box cushion. The original coach lamps, also
marked ‘Shanks, London’ are included.
It has been in the present family since 1935 when it was purchased

of Shefford, Bedfordshire, and was advertised at that time as having
come from Horton Hall, near Northampton. The neat coronet,
spear and crossed leaf crest on the waist boards and rear boot is
believed to be that of the Beesley or Beazley family. It was last
horsed in 1960 and has been stored in the coach house since then.

Christopher Nicholson, 1932 – 2011, had a life-long
passion for horse-drawn
vehicles. He was fascinated
by their social context, from
the finest State Carriage to
a Wiltshire Hay Wagon. His
collection of hand-drawn
carriage designs and the
large collection of designs
from the Coach Builders,
Harness Makers and
Saddlers Art Journal, plus
many pictures, reflects this diversity and passion.
After the family firm of yacht builders, Camper and
Nicholson, was sold, Christopher designed and built
several types of carriages, twice winning ‘Concours
d’Elégance’.
He was a founder member of the British Driving
Society and Chairman and founder member of the
Carriage Association. With his demand for accuracy
on cataloguing, his insistence on proper conservation
and his extensive knowledge of the history of
carriages, he became the carriage advisor to the
National Trust and helped many other museums.
The following 83 lots (1921-2003) is a Collection
of Coach Builders’ hand-drawn watercoloured and
varnished carriage designs by J. Cooper for Farr & Co.,
Coach Builders, Wigan, circa 1830.
1921 This lot consists of a large collection of eighty
five drawings individually signed by J. Cooper,
Carriage Draughtsman, Long Acre, London

Stanhopes and Siamese, Chair Back Gigs,

and a variety of carts such as Battelsdens
