Anbieter: Richard M. Ford Ltd, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
For Harold Temperley (1879-1939, not to be confused with his son) see the Oxford DNB. No other copy of the present item has been traced, and the organization it was produced for, the Brooks-Bryce Foundation for the Furtherance of Friendly Relations between Great Britain and the United States, is now no more than a passing shadow. It was founded in 1921 by the Manhattan socialite Florence [Cornelia Ellwanger] Brooks Aten, and disappeared with her immense fortune following the Great Crash of 1937. See the article in the New York Times, 3 January 1926: Lady Astor praises Brooks-Bryce Work; Commends Foundation's Efforts to Foster Amity Between America and England. Material relating to the Foundation is to be found in the libraries of Yale (among the papers of James Rowland Angell) and Harvard. The present item is 4pp, 4to, printed on one side each of four leaves which are stapled together at one corner. In fair condition, lightly aged and creased, with slight rusting to staple. Each leaf gives an outline of one of the four lectures, and each is headed Brooks-Bright Foundation, / (English Branch.) / Lectures, 1930-31. / Dr. Harold Temperley, O.B.E., F.B.A., / Professor of Modern History in the University of Cambridge.
