Two pairs of black stockings, once the property of Rudyard Kipling. Both with his name tags sewed on. The following lot is from the estate of Edward Baldwin, grandson of Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin, and the fourth Earl of Bewdley. Stanley Baldwin was from an extraordinary family: Rudyard Kipling was his first cousin, Edward Burne-Jones and Edward Poynter were both uncles, his mother Louisa was a novelist, and her siblings included the famous Macdonald sisters. Edward Baldwin was committed to rehabilitating his grandfather's reputation and, being an only child, spent much of his life as sole custodian of these family portraits and personal objects, dating mainly from the late Victorian era.
