The Postcard
A postcard bearing no publisher's name that was published in Great Britain. It features the usual execrable poem that seems to be a mandatory feature of early greetings cards.
The card was posted in Manchester using a ½d. stamp on Thursday the 27th. July 1916. It was sent to:
Miss E. Hallam,
43, Oakfield Street,
Altrincham.
The pencilled message on the divided back of the card was as follows:
"To wish you very many
Happy Returns of the
Day.
Love Phyllis."
The Battle of Delville Wood
So what else happened on the day that Phyllis posted the card to Elsie?
Well, on the 27th. July 1916, a massive artillery barrage by the British destroyed much of the German defenses in Delville Wood, with patrols describing:
"A horrible scene of chaos
and destruction".
However despite horrific losses, German forces recovered and launched a counter-assault on the eastern side of the wood.
-- 'At Delville'
'At Delville' is a poem written by Robert Ernest Vernède in 1916. He was Second Lieutenant in a battalion of The Rifle Brigade.
Robert was wounded during the Battle of the Somme, and was killed in action at Havrincourt on the 9th April 1917.
He is buried in Le Bucquière Communal Cemetery Extension. This poem was found among his belongings after his death.
'At Delville I lost three Sergeants
And never within my ken
Had one of them taken thought for his life
Or cover for aught but his men.
Not for two years of fighting
Through that devilish strain and noise;
Yet one of them called out as he died -
"I've been so ambitious, boys"...
And I thought to myself, "Ambitious!"
Did he mean that he longed for power?
But I knew that he'd never thought of himself
Save in his dying hour.
And one left a note for his mother,
Saying he gladly died
For England, and wished no better thing..
How she must weep with pride.
And one with never a word fell,
Talking's the one thing he'd shirk,
But I never knew him other than keen
For things like danger and work.
Those Sergeants I lost at Delville
On a night that was cruel and black,
They gave their lives for England's sake,
They will never come back.
What of the hundreds in whose hearts
Thoughts no less splendid burn?
I wonder what England will do for them
If ever they return?'
The Execution of Charles Fryatt
Also on that day, English civilian ferry captain Charles Fryatt was executed at Bruges, Belgium, after a German court-martial condemned him for attempting to ram a U-boat in 1915.
Keenan Wynn
The 27th. July 1916 also marked the birth in NYC of the American character actor Keenan Wynn.
Keenan is known for his character supporting roles in films such as Annie Get Your Gun and The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit.
His expressive face was his stock-in-trade; although he rarely carried the lead role, he had prominent billing in most of his film and television roles.
-- Keenan Wynn - The Early Years
Francis Xavier Aloysius James Jeremiah Keenan Wynn was the son of vaudeville comedian Ed Wynn and his wife, the former Hilda Keenan who was a minor actress. His father was Jewish and his mother was of Irish Catholic background.
He took his stage name from his maternal grandfather, Frank Keenan, one of the first Broadway actors to star in Hollywood.
During the height of his father's Broadway popularity, Keenan grew up in the lap of luxury, and was educated at St. John's Military Academy.
-- Keenan Wynn's Theatre and Radio Work
Wynn began his career as a stage actor. He appeared in several plays on Broadway, including Remember the Day (1935), Black Widow (1936), Hitch Your Wagon (1937), The Star Wagon (1938), One for the Money (1939), Two for the Show (1940), and The More the Merrier (1941).
Wynn starred in the radio show The Amazing Mr. Smith in 1941. He played the title role, a carefree young man who runs into trouble galore and becomes an involuntary detective.
-- Keenan Wynn's Film and Television Work
Wynn appeared in hundreds of films and television series between 1934 and 1986. He was a Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer contract player during the 1940's and 1950's.
He had a brief role as a belligerent, unsympathetic drunk in the wartime romance The Clock (1945). Arguably his most dynamic performance was a small role in The Hucksters (1948) with Clark Gable.
Keenan's early postwar credits include The Three Musketeers (1948), playing D'Artagnan's servant; Annie Get Your Gun (1950); Royal Wedding (1951); Kiss Me, Kate (1953); The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit (1956); The Absent-Minded Professor (1961); The Americanization of Emily (1964) and Dr. Strangelove (1964).
The Wynns, father and son, both appeared in the original 1956 Playhouse 90 television production of Rod Serling's Requiem for a Heavyweight. Keenan had helped his father overcome professional collapse, a harrowing divorce, and a nervous breakdown to return to work a decade earlier, and he now helped convince Serling that the elder Wynn should play the wistful trainer.
Both Keenan and his father also appeared in a subsequent TV drama called The Man in the Funny Suit (1960), which detailed the problems they had experienced while working on that series. In it, the Wynns, Serling, and many of the cast and crew played themselves.
Keenan also featured in another Rod Serling production, a Twilight Zone episode entitled, "A World of His Own" (1960) as playwright Gregory West, who uniquely caused series creator Rod Serling to disappear.
In 1959 Wynn starred in S. J. Perelman's Hollywood satire, "Malice in Wonderland", broadcast on NBC's prestigious Sunday afternoon anthology series Omnibus.
He had a leading role in the third Beach Party movie, Bikini Beach (1964) as a scheming newspaper publisher who wants to banish the local young people. Later he played Hezakiah in the comedy film The Great Race (1965).
Wynn took a dramatic turn as Yost in the crime drama Point Blank (1967) with Lee Marvin.
Keenan was the voice of the Winter Warlock in Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town (1970). He also appeared in several Disney films, including Snowball Express (1972), Herbie Rides Again (1974) and The Shaggy D.A. (1976).
He appeared as villainous businessman Alonzo Hawk in three Disney films – The Absent-Minded Professor, Son of Flubber, and Herbie Rides Again.
Keenan also appeared in Francis Ford Coppola's musical Finian's Rainbow (1968), Sergio Leone's epic western Once Upon a Time in the West (also 1968), and Robert Altman's Nashville (1975).
During this time, his guest television roles included Alias Smith and Jones (1971–1972), Emergency! (1975), Movin' On (1975) and The Bionic Woman (1978).
Wynn appeared in ten episodes of TV's Dallas during the 1979–1980 season, playing the role of former Ewing family partner-turned-enemy Digger Barnes.
Wynn was initially cast in Superman (1978) to play Perry White (the boss of Clark Kent and Lois Lane at the Daily Planet) in April 1977. However by June 1977 (production had moved to Pinewood Studios in England), Wynn collapsed from exhaustion and was rushed to a hospital. He was replaced by Jackie Cooper.
Keenan played Charles Picker Dobbs in a 1982 episode of The Love Boat. In 1983, he guest-starred in one of the last episodes of Taxi, and Quincy, M.E. In 1984. He also starred in the television film Call to Glory, which later became a weekly television series.
-- Keenan Wynn's Personal Life
Wynn was married to former stage actress Eve Lynn Abbott (1914–2004) until their divorce in 1947, whereupon Abbott married actor Van Johnson, one of the couple's closest friends.
Abbott contended that her marriage to Wynn was a happy one, but that her divorce and remarriage were engineered by MGM studio boss Louis B. Mayer, who refused to renew Wynn's contract unless Abbott divorced him and married Johnson, who was the subject of rumors that he was homosexual.
One son, the actor and writer Ned Wynn (born Edmond Keenan Wynn), wrote the autobiographical memoir We Will Always Live In Beverly Hills.
Keenan's other son, Tracy Keenan Wynn, is a screenwriter whose credits include The Longest Yard and The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman (both 1974).
His daughter Hilda was married to Paul Williams, and his granddaughter is the actress Jessica Keenan Wynn.
-- Keenan Wynn's Later Life and Death
Although his later years were marred by a severe case of tinnitus (a ringing in the ear that blocks out exterior sound), Keenan was able to continue acting until the very end. One of his last roles was as a regular on the short-lived television series The Last Precinct (1986).
In his later years, Wynn undertook a number of philanthropic endeavors, and supported several charity groups. He was a long-standing active member of the Westwood Sertoma service club, in West Los Angeles.
During his last years, Wynn suffered from pancreatic cancer, which caused his death at the age of 70 on the 14th. October 1986.
His ashes were interred in Glendale's Forest Lawn Memorial Park in The Great Mausoleum, Daffodil Corridor, Columbarium of the Dawn, in a niche alongside his father Ed Wynn, his daughter Emily (1960 – 1980), who died from lupus, and his aunt.
-- A Final Thought From Keenan Wynn
"My billing has always been "and",
or "with", or "including".
That's all right - let the stars take
the blame."
Rosemary Brown
Also born on that day, in London, was the British composer and spiritualist Rosemary Brown.
Rosemary claimed to have been able to channel the spirits of deceased composers such as Franz Liszt in order to produce new compositions.
Rosemary Isabel Brown (nee Dickeson) was an English composer, pianist and spirit medium who claimed that dead composers dictated new musical works to her.
Many other members of Brown's family were allegedly psychic, including her parents and grandparents.
She created a media sensation in the 1970's by presenting works purportedly dictated to her by Claude Debussy, Edvard Grieg, Franz Liszt, Franz Schubert, Frédéric Chopin, Igor Stravinsky, Johann Sebastian Bach, Johannes Brahms, Ludwig van Beethoven, Robert Schumann and Sergei Rachmaninoff.
Concert pianists Peter Katin, Philip Gammon, Howard Shelley, Cristina Ortiz and John Lill have all performed her music.
An LP spoofing her work, Rosemary Brown Psyches Again! was issued in 1982 by Enharmonic Records.
Brown was the subject of a BBC Radio 4 drama, The Lambeth Waltz by Daniel Thurman, first broadcast in 2017.
-- Rosemary Brown - The Early Years
Rosemary Isabel Dickeson was born in London. She claimed to have been only seven years old when she was first introduced to the world of dead musicians.
She reported that a spirit with long white hair and a flowing black cassock appeared and told her he that was a composer, and that he would make her a famous musician one day.
She claimed that she did not know who he was until, about ten years later, she saw a picture of Franz Liszt.
Rosemary worked for the Post Office from the age of 15. In 1948 she acquired a second-hand upright piano, and took some lessons for three years. In 1952 she married Charles Brown, a government scientist. They had a son and a daughter before her husband died in 1961.
-- Communication With Deceased Musicians
In 1964 Liszt supposedly renewed contact, and Brown began transcribing original compositions that she said were dictated to her by great musicians of the past.
Brown transcribed pieces from Johannes Brahms, Johann Sebastian Bach, Sergei Rachmaninoff, Franz Schubert, Edvard Grieg, Claude Debussy, Frédéric Chopin, Robert Schumann, Ludwig van Beethoven, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Liszt.
These included:
-- A 40-page sonata that she attributed to Schubert
-- A Fantaisie-Impromptu in three movements that
she attributed to Chopin
-- 12 songs that she attributed to Schubert
-- 2 sonatas and 2 symphonies that she attributed to Beethoven.
Brown claimed that each composer had his own way of dictating to her:
-- Liszt controlled her hands for a few bars at a time, and then she wrote down the notes
-- Chopin told her the notes and pushed her hands on to the right keys
-- Schubert tried to sing his compositions
-- Beethoven and Bach simply dictated the notes.
Rosemary claimed that the composers spoke to her in English.
-- Rosemary Brown's Critical Reception
Brown's claims about spirit communication were disputed by sceptics. However, this opinion was not universal - there were a number of musicians and musicologists who supported her claims.
Humphrey Searle, who was an authority on Liszt, wrote in his autobiography Quadrille with a Raven, referring to Grubelei, a piece inspired by Liszt:
'It is certainly in keeping with Liszt's
experimental style, being mostly
written in single notes in each hand;
it is highly chromatic, and one hand
is written in 5/4 time against 3/2 in
the other.
The latter is not a thing that Liszt
ever did as far as I know, but it is
the sort of thing he might have done
as I said in my broadcast, which was
reproduced on this record sleeve
without my knowledge!
Since then Fiona and I have got to
know Rosemary well, and believe her
to be perfectly genuine. Even if the
pieces dictated to her by dead
composers are not masterpieces -
although some of them are very nice
works - she has had no technical
training in composition, and could not
possibly produce pastiches like, say,
those by Joseph Cooper in his TV
programme "Face the Music"."
Professor Ian Parrott was also a supporter, and wrote Rosemary Brown's obituary for the Guardian:
"Grübelei, partly dictated under the watchful
gaze of BBC reporter Peter Dorling and a
television studio crew, is undoubtedly a most
spectacular and unusual piece.
It has strong harmonies, cross-rhythms and
occasional instructions in French - a point
conferring authenticity, but difficult to fake."
The composer and Liszt specialist Humphrey Searle said:
"We must be grateful to Mrs Brown
for making it available to us."
After studying her compositions, many musicologists and psychologists came to the conclusion they were the work of Brown's own subconscious.
Leonard Zusne and Warren H. Jones in their book Anomalistic Psychology: A Study of Magical Thinking (1989) noted that:
"Brown wrote hundreds of pieces of music
dictated by the various composers. They
were passable works, entirely in the style
of these composers, but appeared to be
simply reworkings of existing pieces."
Professor of psychology John Sloboda wrote that:
"Brown's music offers the most convincing
case of unconscious composition on a large
scale."
Psychologist Robert Kastenbaum analysed Brown's music compositions and came to doubt that they were dictated to Brown by spirits of well known composers. According to Kastenbaum:
"There are no striking themes, complex structures,
depths of feelings, or harmonic, tonal, or rhythmic
innovations.
During their days on earth all the composers not
only created distinguished music but also contributed
to the development of compositions for the keyboard.
One of the characteristics that made each of them so
remarkable was their unpredictability.
Their next composition might well open a new domain
in musical sensitivity or technique.
Alas, they have now all fallen into desuetude. Nothing
new shows up to enrich their post-mortem compositions,
and nothing surprises, except perhaps the lack of
surprises.
Kastenbaum suggested the composers were secondary personalities of Brown herself.
PhD student Erico Bonfim studied a particular sonata by Schubert produced by Brown and said:
"I chose to investigate a sonata attributed to Schubert
because Schubert has a very special and particular
way of dealing with sonata form.
What is very impressive, in this sonata I analysed,
we can see all the most important characteristics of
Schubert's treatment of sonata form.
So this is certainly not a superficial imitation.
So when the sceptics claimed that she was making
just a superficial imitation, something maybe
improvisatory and so on, I don't believe they were
accurate – at least regarding some of her better
pieces."
Rosemary Brown maintained that she had never had any musical training aside from a few piano lessons, though paranormal investigator Harry Edwards says:
"A perusal of newspaper reports about Ms. Brown
elicits contradictory information about her alleged
lack of musical education.
Originally she stated that she had had no musical
training; later she was reported to have had only
a couple of years of music lessons, and recently
admitted to belonging to a musical household
and being a competent musician and pianist."
According to the psychologist Andrew Neher:
"Brown loved music as a child, there was a piano
in her home while she was growing up, her mother
played the piano, and she herself took piano
lessons.
All of this, together with the enhanced skill often
displayed in altered states of consciousness,
seems sufficient to account for her musical
compositions."
Musicologist Denis Matthews described her music as "charming pastiches," and suggested that she was re-creating compositions.
Similarly Alan Rich, music critic of New York magazine, having heard a privately issued record of Brown's piano pieces, concluded that they were just sub-standard re-workings of some of their purported composers' better-known compositions.

-- Unfinished Symphonies: Voices from the Beyond, William Morrow (1971)
-- Immortals at My Elbow, Bachman & Turner (1974)
-- Look Beyond Today, Bantam Press (1986).

Rosemary died at the age of 85 in London on the 16th. November 2001.

The foreground features Brookfield Place (formerly the World Financial Center - WFC), 1985-92; the 16-storey One North End Avenue at foreground left was added in 1997; with the newer towers of the World Trade Center beyond. The image is dominated by New York's tallest, WTC 1, 1776 feet, including antenna of 400 feet.
The four blunt towers of the WFC, which range in height from 34 to 51 stories, recap and extend the development of skyscraper style. The setback facades recount the history of the skyscraper. Each tower is divided into five major sections. The platforms appear to be largely lithic, with windows punctuating a granite-framed façade, evoking the first masonry skyscrapers. The proportions of stone and glass change at the setbacks.
At the second setback the balance of stone and glass is more even, recalling the regularity of Rockefeller Center and its expansion west of Sixth Avenue. The third setback before the attic is more open and glassy, with only the thinnest grid of superimposed granite mullions, like postwar high-modernist skyscrapers. At the very top stories, the form of the pure glass cube emerges, like Skidmore, Owings and Merrill's flush glass towers, but Pelli caps these with purely ornamental copper crowns in the form of a pyramid, a stepped-back pyramid, a dome and a mastaba.
The setback heights at the third, ninth and twenty-fourth floors were determined by the New York State Urban Development Council (NYSUDC), so that the complex would relate to the predominant building heights of Lower Manhattan.
Pelli refers to the layers of the buildings as jackets. The setbacks also penetrate inward, like missing cake slices, revealing the core structure of glass and steel beneath the granite. (Eric P Nash).

Glastonbury Tor is a hill in Glastonbury, Somerset, England, which features the roofless St Michael's Tower and forms an iconic part of the local landscape. The site is managed by the National Trust. It has been designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument (No: 196702).
Tor is a local word of Celtic origin meaning "rock outcropping" or "hill". The Tor has a striking location in the middle of the Summerland Meadows, part of the Somerset Levels. The plain is actually reclaimed fenland out of which the Tor once rose as an island but now, with the surrounding flats, is a peninsula washed on three sides by the River Brue. The remains of Glastonbury Lake Village nearby were identified in 1892, showing that there was an Iron Age settlement about 300–200 BC on what was an easily defended island in the fens. Earthworks and Roman remains prove later occupation. The spot seems to have been called Ynys yr Afalon (meaning "The Isle of Avalon") by the Britons and is believed by some to be the Avalon of Arthurian legend.
A model of Glastonbury Tor was incorporated into the opening ceremony of the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. As the athletes entered the stadium, their flags were displayed on the terraces of the model.
Chimayo features a turquoise donut of green with brown and black veining, which was purchased some 15 years ago at Trader Jack's Flea Market in Santa Fe, NM. The pendant gets its name from the sacred place, El Santuario de Chimayo, also known as the "Lourdes of America," a pilgrimage site for many seeking miracles. www.jewelryofdistinction.blogspot
Cardamomo has been an integral part of the Madrid flamenco scene for over 15 years, and has been recommended by the NY Times as part of their "36 Hours" city travel series. The venue is known for attracting some of the best young talent in Spain and features a varying list of artists.
This groyne, adjacent to Brighton Pier, features a sculpture by Hamish Black called "Afloat," which was unveiled in 1998. The shape "comes from a taurus form (a speculative form for how black holes might look). Based on a globe, the points at the north and south poles are pushed together through the sphere, forming a central hole where they meet."

A Yankee hand drill no 1530 by North Bros. This drill has seen a lot of use. It features a replacement crank knob made of tropical wood and the gear wheel has had dental surgery where three teeth have been very well repaired with welding. The upside is that the five gear gearbox works like a clock, the detachable handle fits tightly without any play and the drill works very nicely indeed. The five gears are a stroke of genius not seen in any other drills than those made by North Bros.
This beautiful headstone features a hand from heaven and broken chain indicating that the soul is released to heaven.
The epitaph reads:

The CFS exhibit hall continues to expand as new technologies are put on display. #NATCACFS2019 features many current modernization programs with a presence in the exhibit hall, and in most cases, the exhibits are staffed by our NATCA Article 114 Reps and their FAA program management counterparts. We strongly encourage all CFS attendees to take the time to walk through our exhibit hall and spend some time conversing with our Reps, program managers, and sponsors about some of the current and upcoming technologies that will impact everyone’s careers. www.natca.org/index.php/cfs-spon-exhib
