A lot of framed commemorative prints of regional and aviation interest. The first is a colour offset lithograph by Arthur Gibson, depicting a British Airways Concorde in flight accompanied by the Red Arrows aerobatic team in a V-formation. The piece features a printed signature Arthur Gibson within the image. The lower mount is extensively hand-signed in black ink by multiple individuals, including Ken Tait, Roy E. Somerville, Brian Donnelly, John Cochrane, Bill Aspinall, Brian Trubshaw., Des Sheen, and Ian Bashall. The second work is a limited edition offset lithograph titled Mining Memories of South Yorkshire, after a painting by John Michael Webster. The detailed composition features a collage of miners, pit ponies, and a colliery scroll listing operational dates for Grimethorpe 1894 – 1992, Maltby 1907/10 – 1992, and Markham Main 1914/24 – 1992 among others. The print is hand-signed in pencil John Michael Webster and numbered 1588 / 2500 to the lower margin. Both are housed in matching mahogany-toned wooden frames with gilt inner slips.
