Dr Alexander R. Graham, Bust Portrait of Barnes Wallis, painted resin, 1966, 40cm h x 21cm w x26cm d . Provenance: Sir Barnes Wallis thence by descent. Note. Dr Alexander Graham R.M.S., M.B., Ch.B., D.P.H., Barrister-at-Law, served as Medical Officer of Health for Lancaster and later for the Borough of Mitcham. A close friend of Wallis, he was also an accomplished portrait painter and sculptor. Graham took up the study of sculpture later in life at Wimbledon School of Art, exhibiting at the Royal Academy in 1963 and frequently with the Society of Portrait Sculptors. He was elected a member of the Society in 1966 and served as its Honorary Secretary from 1968 until 1980. Following Graham's death in 1986, his widow, Marjorie, presented another cast of the present work to the National Aerospace Library at Farnborough. A photograph of Wallis standing beside the sculpture was likely taken to commemorate its presentation to the Library.

Vickers Ltd - A side view of the R80 Airship in Flight at Walney Island, Barrow in Furness, gelatin silver print photograph, published by Vickers circa 1920, 56cm x 70cm, within a stained wood frame 66cm x 80cm. Provenance: Sir Barnes Wallis thence by descent. Note: The R.80 was a British rigid airship, first flown on 19 July 1920, and notable as the first fully streamlined airship constructed in Britain. Designed by Barnes Wallis and H. B. Pratt for Vickers, it was originally commissioned as a military project for the British Admiralty but was ultimately completed for commercial passenger service. In practice, however, the R.80 proved too small to operate viably in this capacity. After a brief period assisting in the training of personnel from the United States Navy who were to crew the ZR-2 airship, the R.80 was withdrawn from service and was eventually scrapped in 1925
