Dear Client,
1992 has been a hard year in many sectors of the art market,
yet at Glendining's we seem to be weathering the storm. The
autumn season is upon us. Dates are being fixed for our 1993
calendar and it has been agreed that catalogue subscriptions
for the year will be held at 1992 rates. I am able to report
that there have been a number of changes, some more are on the
way, and I sincerely hope that our plans to improve the
service we offer our customers will be maintained.
Christopher Hawkings, Deputy Chairman of Phillips and a long-
time director of Glendining's retired at the end of July. He
complained that although he had taken many thousands of
auctions world-wide for the Phillips group, the regime at
Glendining's was such that he only took one sale for us! We
welcome Roger Hollest as a director in his place.
Alec Purves, a founding member of the Orders and Medals
Research Society died in June. Sadly he had been too ill to
attend the Society's jubilee celebrations. I appointed Alec a
consultant shortly after my arrival at Glendining's in 1986,
and world-wide respect in his judgement was a contributing
factor in our continued expansion of the sales of War Medals
and Decorations.
During the summer Glendining's had a table at the O.M.S.A
Convention and were later represented at the A.N.A.
Convention, both in Orlando. We will be attending the
O.M.R.S. Convention and the Art Medal Fair, which clash on
Saturday 19th September. We will have our usual table at
COINEX on October 15th-17th. We intend, whenever possible, to
have tables at both the London Coin Fairs at the Cumberland
Hotel, and the Britannia Medal Fairs. I plan to be in New
York for the International Coin Fair in early December.
Our September 21st medal catalogue offers a wide selection of
material, including two major consignments from the United
States. The "Vigo Bay" Collection of coins was also consigned
from the U.S.A., demonstrating the awareness and respect for
Glendining's that there is throughout North America. it 2s

seldom that any auction house has the privilege of handling
such coins, and the 56 lot sale will be held at 6.00pm on
Monday 12th October - a part of our contribution to the week
of COINEX. The general sale of "Ancient, British and World
Coins" that precedes "Vigo Bay" has consignments in it from
many countries.
Glendining's is proud to be involved with FIDEM - 1992, the
23rd such congress, but the first to be held in England. The
Noel Woolf Collection of Jacobite Medals, for sale in November
in association with, and catalogued by, A. H. Baldwin & Sons,
will be displayed at that time. At -a later date, the
collection will be on display at Phillips in Edinburgh.
Our computer, designed for the quieter life of a Phillips
branch, is about to be replaced and early in the new year we
expect to be able to link in with the much larger capacity of
the Phillips system. We hope that the transition will go
smoothly.
Could I remind you that whilst Glendining's has long been a
"No Smoking" area, as from September this will extend to the
whole of the Phillips building. I respect the feelings of
those who smoke and apologise for any inconvenience this may
cause them. Our office hours are from 8.30am to 5.00pm,
Monday to Friday, there will also be times when we are open
for late night or week-end viewing - details will be printed
in the catalogues. An answer-phone will take messages out of
hours.
Finally, our own history, conceived as an idea for our 90th
anniversary, will now simply commemorate the first nine
decades! It should be available at our table at COINEX, and
details and order forms will soon be announced.
Enjoy the new season.
Heals.
