Illus. b/w plates. <br/><br/>Three uncommon postcards with engravings of the secret operation of 24-25 April 1914 in Larne. "The Larne gun-running was a major gun smuggling operation organised in April 1914 in Ireland by Major Frederick H. Crawford and Captain Wilfrid Spender for the Ulster Unionist Council to equip the Ulster Volunteer Force. The operation involved the smuggling of almost 25000 rifles and between 3 and 5 million rounds of ammunition from the German Empire with the shipments landing in Larne Donaghadee and Bangor in the early hours between Friday 24 and Saturday 25 April 1914. The Larne gun-running may have been the first time in history that motor-vehicles were used "on a large scale for a military-purpose and with striking success"." The true significance of the operation for the Unionist movement is debatable but it remains a matter of pride and an example of heroism. It did provoke a response of more direct significance when Erskine Childers organized the Howth gun running of June 1914. The 900 guns that he brought into County Dublin were subsequently used in the 1916 Easter Rising and Home Rule ceased to be a matter of debate. One card is used bearing George V stamp. unknown books

He was jailed for seditious libel but escaped to Paris where he befriended Mary Wollstonecraft but the Thermidorian Reaction to the French Revolution proved too tumultuous and he moved on to Philadelphia then Wilmington Delaware over many years descending from riches to rags wary of travel and unable to return to Ireland. His wife was his most loyal and determined advocate and through her efforts he was able to move to Hamburg where he was finally reunited with her and their 10 children and eventually London.

Full final year of Éire the official publishing organ of the Irish Republican Party which ran from January 20 1923 - October 25 1924 continuing with its successor publication Sinn Féin. "The Republican party was not unaware of the benefits to be derived from the publication of a newspaper reflecting its view. During its lifetime the organization brought out various weeklies. Éire: The Irish Nation had been started in January 1923 to give the Republican version of events in the closing stages of the Civil War. This proved a boon to the Reorganizing Committee in its efforts to build up the new parety in the summer of 1923. A second party paper Sinn Féin originally appeared as a daily news-sheet during the August 1923 general election campaign; but once the election was over it appeared only weekly. The new party had not been established very long before its leaders eager to counteract the anti-Sinn Féin bias of the three national dailies began planning the publication of a daily paper of their own with national circulation. They failed in their efforts to do this the principal reason being once again lack of capital. The failure of the party here may have indirectly hastened its decline. Control of a national daily would have forced Sinn Féin to spell out its aims and policies in a more realistic and precise fashion.At the end of 1924 Sinn Féin and Éire merged probably for circulation reasons to form a new weekly also with the title Sinn Féin. This paper in turn ceased publication and was replaced by a new weekly An Phoblacht in June 1925" Pynne Peter. The Third Sinn Fein Party: 1923-1926. p.39.
