At Degas death in 1917 more than 150 examples of sculpture were found in his studio, most were wax, clay or plaster. In 1918 the heirs authorized a series of additions of bronzes to be made from 72 of the small figures. They were cast and executed by the Paris foundry of A.A. Hebrard Et Cie. The casts were numbered 1-73, and lettered a-t indicating a limited edition of 20 pieces with the “A” being the first cast. The first series of bronzes was available for exhibition in Paris in May of 1921. That first series was bought by Louisine Havemeyer and exhibited in New York in 1922. The fourth set (D) was purchased as a complete set by Walter Halvorsen in London prior to 1929. Walter Halvorsen was a Norwegian art dealer with offices in London and New York city. Halvorsen’s complete set (edition D) is purchased by Justin Thannhauser of New York and Berlin. Justin K. Thannhauser (1892-1976) was the son of Heinrich Thannhauser (1859-1935). Justin opened galleries in Munich, Lucerne and Berlin and then moved to New York in 1940. In 1918 Justin married Kathe Levi(Y)(1894-1960), she later tragically died and he remarried his second wife Hilde in 1962. In 1963 Justin gave a significant portion of his art collection to the Guggenheim Foundation. It was in 1976 upon his death that the collection became part of the Guggenheim’s holdings as before then it was on long term loan. Ten additional works were received after Hilde’s death in 1991. Other bronze castings with the addition “D” can be found in the Guggenheim’s collection. This bronze has descended from Justin’s first wife through her family to our present consignor.

Oil on canvas Housed in an outstanding carved and gilt frame Signed lower left “Wilh. Kuhnert and inscribed on reverse of canvas “Wilhelm Khunert, Berlin, DerMenschen Frosser” NOTE: This painting was referenced in the archives amassed by Hans Jorg Werner, Wilhelm Kuhnert’s grandson and he was familiar with the story surrounding the painting. While Kuhnert was in Africa and a black-mane lion had attacked and killed a postman while the postman was covering his rounds on a bicycle. Kuhnert was probably the only white man in the area and certainly the only one with a rifle. He was asked by the local leaders to kill the lion. The locals showed him the way and the scene Kuhnert painted was what he saw just before he killed the lion with one shot to the head. Kuhnert used oversize canvases for works only he considered important. This is the only known example of his work that included a confirmed man-eater & a historical scene as depleted. One can only imagine what went through the mind of Wilhelm Kuhnert when he came upon the lion and transformed from artist to hunter in order to save himself and the villagers from this villain. SIZE: 45″ x 85″. Overall 56-1/2″ x 96-1/2″ PROVENANCE: An Italian gentleman to Russel Fink Gallery, VA to Michael Coleman, to present consignor. CONDITION: Very good.

Inpainting was performed to the folded area and presently is in very good condition. 49375-1 (150,000-200,000) – Lot 1225

AUGUST BENZIGER (American 1867-1935) FULL LENGTH PORTRAIT OF A LADY IN A WHITE GOWN.

Oil on mahogany panel Unframed Unsigned, attribution based on handwritten note affixed to verso dated “2003” August Benziger was born in Switzerland and moved to New York city in 1852. He studied under William Bouguereau and Leon Bonnat at the Ecole Des Beaux Arts in Paris. Upon his return to the United States, Benziger became a sought after portrait painter of notable subjects including presidents, political figures, and financial tycoons. This portrait is executed in a novel style similar to that of American portrait painter Charles Naegele. Naegele was the first artist to leave the background of his mahogany panels in their natural state, forcing the artist to concentrate on keying up their flesh tones. Although this work is unsigned, it is possible that Benziger was influenced by Naegele’s exhibition at the Salmagundi Club in New York, or he acquired this work from Naegele and it was simply in his artist studio upon his death. SIZE: 20-1/2″ x 13″ PROVENANCE: By decent within the family of the artist August Benziger CONDITION: Surface grime, several minor surface scratches, otherwise very good 49079-1 (1,000-1,500) – Lot 1429

RARE PRESIDENT ANDREW JACKSON FIRST INAUGURAL MESSAGE DECEMBER 8, 1829 SILK BROADSIDE.

This large silk broadside measures about 30″ x 18-1/2″. It is not found in Sabin or Collins titled “PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE”. Prior to Andrew Jackson’s presidency, rarely had the common people been aroused by an active interest in politics. This message printed in text during the period was not uncommon, but this massive silk broadside is rare and tells of the process of the government putting new people in their places. Jackson facilitated the adoption of the principle of rotation in office, under which tenure was usually limited to 4 years, but terminated with lack of good behavior. This was in keeping with Jackson’s personal views as he looked upon politics as a very personal matter and he always believed his friends should be rewarded by public service and preference. “The recent demonstration of public sentiment inscribes, on the list of Executive duties, in characters too legible to be overlooked, the task of Reform; which will require, particularly, the correction of those abuses that have brought the Patronage of the Federal Government into conflict with the Freedom of Elections, and the counteraction of those causes which have disturbed the rightful course of appointment and have placed or continued power, in unfaithful or incompetent hands”. Accompanying this are three 19th century engravings of Andrew Jackson, 2 framed and one loose. PROVENANCE: From the personal estate collection of John W. Armiger Jr. CONDITION: Good overall as framed, minor reductions, staining and soiling. Figural borders intact other than one small piece missing at top center as seen in photos. Frames measures 33″ x 21-1/2″. Engravings are very good overall as framed; loose engraving is heavily foxed and acid burned. 49055-166 (800-1,200) – Lot 2089

RARE AND POSSIBLY UNIQUE 19th CENTURY COLD WATER ARMY “TEMPERANCE” FLAG.

The Cold Water Army was an early American temperance movement started in the 1830s with it’s heyday in the 1840s. The movement seemed to play out by the time of the Civil War but the eagle motif on this flag sure appears to be Civil War with riband on eagle reading “UNION AND VICTORY”. Cold Water and temperance can be found in the press and even as late as a Thomas Nast cartoon from 1880. Though we can’t exactly date this flag, materials sure suggest circa 1870. This flag measures about 22″ on fly and 19″ on hoist attached to it’s original 41-1/2″ stick with slightly turned finial. The polished cotton body and hand-sewn silk ribbons making up trim and borders of newsprint paper panels are all materials available in this era. Hand-sewing threads appear to be 2- or 3-ply “S” twist reminiscent of the Civil War era, as is the 2-ply red twill wool strip with small squared tacks attaching flag to shaft. PROVENANCE: From the personal estate collection of John W. Armiger Jr. CONDITION: Very good to fine overall. This flag was obviously rolled for most of it’s life and is in remarkable condition considering the fragility of the silk ribbons and delicate hand stitches utilized. 49055-23 (1,200-1,800) – Lot 2103

It is noted, however, as by this May 1876 patent that Colorado acceptance was anticipated and most likely this hand sewn array of stars was also made for a Centennial celebration.

Flag is totally made of cotton, hand stitched with double applique 6-pointed stars in configuration 2, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 2 which forms a “snowflake-like” device. There are several noted flags with similar configurations that date early in the 19th century, but this flag in our opinion is mid-19th century, possibly early Civil War 1861. Flag is displayed in a conservation aluminum skeletal pressure mounted frame most likely conserved by Fonda Thomsen as this fine mount is her trademark. PROVENANCE: From the personal estate collection of John W. Armiger Jr. CONDITION: Flag has some light fading, but red is still vivid.

This flag was official until 1845, the year before the start of the Mexican War. There is a recent tag attached which states flag belongs to “James R. Arrott and flew over the American Consul in Dublin”. A quick internet search does find James Arrott as listed by the US Congressional record as a consul in Dublin in the 1850’s.

MONUMENTAL AND IMPORTANT FISKE COW WEATHERVANE.

Circa 1890. Commissioned by William Hayes of Tariffville Connecticut for his barn, and probably created by J W Fiske, New York City, New York. The form is of a short horn Jersey cow, and though known examples of this scale are extremely rare, there is a similar weathervane illustrated in the Fiske catalog of that era. This huge weathervane is constructed from repousse copper panels soldered together, and is attached to the original large scale copper tube, the vertical portion of which shows significant wear and is unquestionably original. The weathervane is in an exquisite verdigris patina, testimony to a hundred years of active daily service on the cupola of the Hayes’ Dairy Barn, before going to work on the cupola of the Simsbury post office. An iconic and extremely well documented piece of Americana. Accompanied by a complete history of ownership, including a bronze plaque from the Simsbury, Connecticut post office where the weathervane resided from its dedication in 1966 until 1988, but for a day short of a year, when it was stolen and then recovered. Also included are a number of articles and early photographs of the weathervane. SIZE: 33″ h x 48″ l x 14″ w. CONDITION: Good, with very minimal traces of original sizing and gilt remaining on the underside of hindquarters. It has never been re-surfaced and the only repair noted is a single bullet hole expertly repaired at the center of its being. The repair has weathered significantly due to the overall patina. Additionally there are some dents present around tail and body junction, nose and middle of proper right side. None of these are visually distracting. 49302-1 (25,000-35,000) – Lot 2152

IMPORTANT CHIPPENDALE BLOCK-AND-SHELL CARVED FIGURED MAHOGANY TALL CASE CLOCK.

Newport, Rhode Island, circa 1760-1775. The dial signed Thomas Claggett; the case, Goddard-Townsend school. The case exhibiting the height of Chippendale development having a bonnet with moulded swan’s neck pediment terminating in carved rosettes; the broken arch centered by a fluted keystone and flanked by rare side plateaus for the plinths and flame carved finials; the arched, glazed door is flanked by freestanding fluted columns; the bonnet having oval inspection lights on the sides; the waisted case having engaged stop-fluted quarter columns centering a block-and-shell carved pendulum door; the stepped base having a canted corner pedestal with raised center tablet of highly figured mahogany and a moulded base on ogee bracket feet. This case constitutes the highest level of sophistication from the Goddard-Townsend cabinet shops in its design and construction. The composite cast brass dial has an arched top with silvered strike/silent selector wheel containing the arch, flanked by fire gilded bronze Rococo spandrels;l the silvered chapter ring is engraved and wax inlaid with roman numeral hours and Arabic minutes; the center hammered brass; having an ancillary silvered seconds dial above the central arbor, and a curved silvered name plate engraved ‘Thomas Claggett, Newport’ below; the dial cornered by fire gilded spandrels. The movement being a two-train brass plate mechanism of eight day duration, having time-and-strike, rack-and-snell strike mechanism, anchor recoil escapement, and grooved winding barrels from which suspend two double hung weights; having four pillars between the plates; engraved on the back plate ‘Marmaduke Storr, London’; retaining what appears to be the original wooden pendulum rod with lead-weighted brass bob. The clock works bears the dual signatures of Thomas Claggett, Newport, on the composite dial, and Marmaduke Storr, London, on the back plate of the movement. The dial components and strike/silent features are common to Thomas Claggett movements. The dual signatures are somewhat unusual, but show the reality of the fact of the use of largely imported components in complex composite dial movements of the time, and both of these clockmakers had a history of incorporated works with top quality Goddard-Townsend clock cases. The commercial implications of the Marmaduke Storr signature on the movement indicate that in addition to largely imported elements of English manufacture, alliances on both sides of the Atlantic were commercially useful. Thomas Claggett active 1750-1790; born 1730 Newport; died 1790; son of master clockmaker William Claggett 1696-1749. Marmaduke Storr London and York, active 1760-1774; very limited production.

Revised: 8/24/2015

Please note: At least one individual believes this vane to be 20th century versus 19th century. We also note in reviewing the descriptions in the two scholarly weathervane books. One book states it to be early 20th century and the other one says circa 1890. We cannot be certain of the age thus will not guarantee it. However, the former owner, an elderly family, did indicate that they acquired the weathervane over 40 years ago and had it in their collection since then.

FITZ HENRY LANE (American, 1804–1865) PORTRAIT OF THE BARK “MARY”.

Oil on canvas scene shows a portrait of the Bark “Mary” sailing right to left in blue & green water. The bark’s pennant flies off middle mast with the American flag flying off the stern. A few men can be seen on board. Another tall ship with masts up can be seen in the distance off the bow. Seagulls can be seen in the foreground as well as off the stern and in the far distance. All under blue sky with white clouds having pink hues. Housed in a fine period gesso decorated frame. After consulting and conferring with the scholars assembling the catalogue raisonne, both John Wilmerding and Sam Holdsworth have concluded that it is a work by Fitz Henry Lane and will be included in the catalogue raisonne that is being assembled by the Cape Ann Museum in Gloucester, Massachusetts. The painting has also undergone infrared photography at Williamstown Art Conservation Center in Williamstown, Massachusetts. Their conclusions was that there were some minor changes to the position of the flag, some fine tuning of the position of the rigging and the angle of the bow line. This is in keeping with Lane’s attention to accurately detail the ship. There was research done by the Cape Ann Museum regarding the Mary’s signal flags which read from top down “2 5 1 3”. The canvas stamp of “A. Morris Boston” was researched and is listed in the 1845 and 1846 Boston directory. The information regarding the ship indicated that she was built in 1844 in Medford, Massachusetts having the home port as Boston. Also, attributed to the ship builders Foster & Taylor and Captain Hopner as shipmaster of the Mary. These are mentioned in a family manuscript dated “Boston April 12, 1867” which describes the bark Mary with details. Also, there is the use of red primer paint which was common with Lane’s work including The Anchor, Shroud Chain Plates, Bobstays. Another attribute of Lane’s paintings is the reflections of seagulls in the water and the framing composition of dark clouds in the corners and luminous color treatment of sea. Accompanying lot is Old Ships and Ship-Building Days Medford by Hall Gleason. SIZE: 19-1/2″ x 27″. Overall: 26-1/2″ x 34-1/2″. PROVENANCE: From a Maine collection.

TOMASO DE SIMONE (Italian, 1805-1888) AMERICAN STEAMSHIP IN THE BAY OF NAPLES.

Oil on canvas portrait of an American steam driven sailing ship anchored in the bay of Naples with Mount Vesuvius in the background. Two rowboats with fishermen in the foreground with a sailboat in the distance. Housed in an ebonized wood frame. Signed and dated lower right “DE Simone 1867″. NOTE: USS Frolic (1865-1883) – Confederate ship Named Advance until 1865. Advance, originally a 902-ton side-wheel steamer, was built at Greenock, Scotland, in 1862 for use as a River Clyde packet. Purchased by the State of North Carolina under the name Lord Clyde in 1863, she was renamed Advance (a name frequently given as A.D. Vance), and put to work running the Federal blockade. She was one of the most successful Confederate blockade runners, making more than twenty voyages before her capture by USS Santiago de Cuba off Wilmington, North Carolina, on 10 September 1864. Taken into the United States Navy soon thereafter, she served as USS Advance until June 1865, when she was renamed Frolic. Purchased by the U.S. Navy from the prize court in that month, she was commissioned as USS Advance in October 1864. During the rest of that year, and into 1865, she was active off the North Carolina coast and took part in the assaults on Fort Fisher in December 1864 and January 1865. Advance went to New York in March 1865 and was out of commission there until June, when she was placed back into service and renamed Frolic. Frolic was then assigned to the European Squadron as a dispatch vessel, a mission for which she was well suited by virtue of her small size and good speed. Arriving at Flushing, the Netherlands, in July 1865, she operated in northern European waters and in the Mediterranean until 1869. Again out of commission from May to September 1869, Frolic’s next active service was patrolling the North Atlantic fishing grounds in April-October 1870. After another period in reserve, she operated off New England for several months in 1872 and was then station ship at New York. In 1875-77, she cruised in South American waters as a unit of the South Atlantic Squadron. Decommissioned for the last time in October 1877, USS Frolic was sold in October 1883. She was a civilian ship, retaining the name Frolic, for a few years after that. SIZE: 13″ x 20″. Overall 15-3/4″ x 23”. CONDITION: Good, craquelure, lined. 49371-2 (5,000-10,000) – Lot 2170

FINE EARLY HOMEMADE CIVIL WAR 34 STAR FLAG.

This flag was made with a spattered array of stars, measuring between 5″ and 4″ being “cut through”. Stars are sewn on one side of canton and the blue material is cut out in shape of a star and tucked under and sewn showing smaller stars on opposite side. It took a very skilled seamstress to preserve cloth and weight to make a flag like this. The blue canton appears to be lightweight, single-ply cotton warp with wool weave. Red and white, either cotton or linen, stripes being totally hand sewn with a large 2-1/2″ sleeve for cord. This flag with central largest star probably commemorated the entry of Kansas as the 34th state on January 29, 1861 though the star did not become official until July 4th. There are many noted early homespun examples such as this. This flag presents beautifully, measuring about 5-1/2′ on hoist and 7-1/2′ on fly. PROVENANCE: From the personal estate collection of John W. Armiger Jr. CONDITION: Very good to fine overall. Several small tears and holes, and a few contemporary repairs. Minor staining and soiling, some fraying, especially on corners. This is a truly beautiful and appealing example of an early Civil War 34 star flag that would display regally. 49055-107 (3,000-5,000) – Lot 2174

EXTREMELY RARE FABULOUS CIVIL WAR SILK EMBROIDERED SAILOR’S JUMPER AND STRAW HAT.

This mid 19th Century sailor’s blouse no doubt dates to the Civil War. This regulation Navy Summer weight jumper is totally hand stitched. The blue trimmed panels have fabulous silk designs applied most likely by a Union sailor at sea and falls into the category of “sailor art”. Sailors had so much time on their hands that they produced wonderful pieces of folk art, including scrimshaw, carvings and rare surviving embroidery work such as this. It is not uncommon to see similar “folk art” designs on tops of Civil War Navy enlisted “Donald Duck” style flat hats or straw hat here. In our research we can find only one similarly adorned jumper and that one is identified as circa 1862 along with pants and decorated sea bag in the collection of the Winterthur Museum near Wilmington, Delaware. There are few other such elaborate surviving Civil War era embroidered Naval pieces to be found in other institutional collections we can find outside Winterthur and the “Old Army and Navy” section of the Smithsonian. As can be seen in photos, the workmanship is meticulous and detailed. Each cuff, which has 7-1/2″ x 5″ blue panels, is embroidered with a 10-pointed star above a fluted anchor with rope and two 5-pointed stars on either side. The blue panel is trimmed with floral edged borders, as are all the other trimmed panels. The front “bib” is about 8″ across and 9″ tall with a 4-1/4″ spread winged eagle holding an olive branch in one talon and an American flag on staff in his beak. There are three 10-pointed stars and two 5-pointed stars also in this panel. Panels on shoulder trim are about 3″ wide and 8″ long with central devise of fluted anchor and rope over a flagstaff with Liberty cap holding a furled American flag. Also in each of these panels on shoulders are three 5-pointed stars. The back “fall”, which is a 7″ x 17″ panel, has a central devise over; wide and 5″ tall that incorporates the patriotic shield with red and white stripes with two flags on poles on either side and a large spread winged eagle flying above and seven 5-pointed stars in arch above eagle. Each corner of this “fall” has a 10-pointed star above a fluted anchor bordered, as is all the trim, by the repeated floral rope seen throughout the design. Accompanying this jumper is a wonderful sailors straw hat with sailor silk embroidered multi-pointed starburst medallion done in similar silk thread and same style as found on cuffs, shoulder and bib of the jumper. These are truly marvelous pieces of Civil War American folk art that would grace the finest museum displays anywhere. LITERATURE: Ron Field, Bluejackets Uniforms in the United States Navy in the Civil War Period. Frederick Todd, American Military Equipage Vol. II. Norm Flayderman, Scrimshaw and Scrimshanders. PROVENANCE: From the personal estate collection of John W. Armiger Jr. CONDITION: Very good to fine overall. There are scattered stains and several small holes in cotton blouse. The blue cotton panels still retain good strong color, as can be seen in photos. Blouse retains orig Mother of Pearl buttons on cuffs and five small orig Mother of Pearl buttons are found on “bib” (number of buttons on Naval jumpers often denote sailor’s rating or station). Silk embroidery was once brightly multi-colored. When studied under blacklight the red stripes on the flag and shield and blue of the cantons can be determined much easier. Still much detail is visible in the faded colors, as can be seen in photos. Embroidery is mostly intact, however there are reductions, especially in the simulated rope borders that contain the repeating floral vine design, with most reductions seen on cuffs and on left border design of rear “fall”. Other areas of missing embroidery are seen, including a 1/2″ x 1/4″ reduction in the right wing of eagle on “fall”. Straw hat is sound, solid though missing sweatband and portions of silk embroidery are now gone. Velvet-base that medallion is embroidered upon has lost most of its nap. Silk ribbon is broken and pinned in back but still displays nicely. 49055-41 (6,000-9,000) – Lot 2175

FABULOUS AMERICAN/CONFEDERATE 13 STAR FLAG.

This is one of the most unusual and stunning stars and stripes observed. This flag which measures 52″ on fly and 33″ on hoist, is constructed entirely of cotton, typical of early Civil War flags made in 1861. The double applique 3″ stars are attached with hand stitches from an experienced seamstress. There are few other flags known with multiple stars and stripes in the shape of St. Andrew’s Cross. Most have Confederate attribution and accompanying statement by flag conservator and expert Fonda Thomsen, who has several theories of this flag having Confederate origins which she could easily be correct. Regardless of origin, this is a wonderful flag of a great size with great aesthetics and surface. PROVENANCE: From the personal estate collection of John W.

CIVIL WAR 34 STAR FLAG.

This flag measures about 9′ x 6′. Wool bunting with hand-sewn linen hoist and hand-sewn double applique 3-1/2″ stars. Written on hoist is “Shot Tower, Balto.” There is also a name written on hoist that appears to read “H D Hanney”. The Baltimore Shot Tower originally built in 1830 was used for manufacture of lead “drop shot” used by arms, pistols and rifles of the day. The Shot Tower was the tallest building in the US until the Washington Monument was built in Washington, DC after the Civil War. Baltimore’s Phoenix Shot Tower is now part of the National Parks Service and can still be visited in the “Inner Harbor” of Baltimore. More research should be done on the name on hoist to see if any Civil War history can be found as 34 star flag was official from 1861 until 1863. PROVENANCE: From the personal estate collection of John W. Armiger Jr. CONDITION: Flag is sound and solid with good color. Frayed at edges with numerous small reductions, several stars have missing fabric as can be seen in photos. Hoist still retains original rope hoist and brass grommets. There are several old, contemporary repairs that allowed flag’s continued use. Hoist has several tears exposing cord. Flag shows character and would display well.

FABULOUS GENERAL PHILIP SHERIDAN ETCHED GLASS RAILROAD-STYLE LANTERN.

This rare and wonderful lantern made by Kelly & Co., Rochester, NY measures about 12″ tall with a 5-1/2″ tall globe, 4-1/2″ wide, with beautiful etched panel of patriotic eagle perched on patriotic U.S. shield surrounded by cannonballs and a panoply of American flags and arms measuring about 3″ tall and 4″ across. The opposite side surrounded by floral wreathes reads ‘GENERAL P.H. SHERIDAN’. General Sheridan was a famous Civil War general of great renown. He served in the American military most of his adult life. He became the commanding general of the United States Army in 1883 until his death at age 57 in 1888. This lantern dates somewhere in the 1870s or 80s as that was Kelly Lantern Works’ time of business making other presentation lanterns such as this. These lanterns are quite rare and we know of only one other to such a prominent American iconic general as this one. That lantern has the same patriotic eagle (though a bit different as both are totally hand etched) and attribution to “General Ulysses S. Grant”.

CIVIL WAR COLT MODEL 1851 NAVY REVOLVER.

This is a classic Civil War sidearm used by both North and South, being the most popular sidearm among Confederate officers. This is a nice, honest, original and complete example of a Hartford, CT made Colt Revolver at the onset of the Civil War. Based on serial number data, this gun was made in the first few months of 1861 when war fervor was at its peak. Many Colts made between January and April where this gun probably falls, were shipped South and if records exist this would be an interesting project to research. Regardless if shipped North or South, this popular Civil War sidearm is an honest, complete example still retaining portions of its discernible rolled cylinder design of naval battle. PROVENANCE: From the personal estate collection of John W. Armiger Jr. CONDITION: Overall very good. All matching serial numbers, markings all easily read such as barrel address and patent markings. Cylinder has areas of staining and pitting, but much of the naval battle scene can be seen. Stocks retain 90% of their original Colt varnish with edge wear and small blemishes.

SWORD, SASH, EPAULETTES OF CAPTAIN EDWARD R WARNER, WEST POINT GRADUATE 1858.

Edward R. Warner served in the Civil War as regimental quartermaster and as staff officer to Brig. General Hunt Chief of Artillery of the Army of the Potomac. He had a brevete rank of Brig. General for meritorious service at Gettysburg, Petersburg, and the fall of Richmond. He returned to the regular army and served as Captain of the 3rd US Artillery from July 28, 1866 until 1877 when he was promoted to Major of 1st US Artillery. Cased pair of epaulettes and sash appear Civil War era, though they are shown with Majors insignia. It just goes to show you that soldiers maintained their rarely used dress epaulettes and just changed the rank cushions (as his Lieutenant insignia are still in the box. There is a later cased pair of Russian knot epaulettes with correct Major insignia for 1st US Artillery, maker marked “Shannon Miller & Crane” on both insignia and japanned box. The model 1860 staff and field officers sword is in fabulous condition made at the Springfield Armory and US inspected. It is very unusual to see etched presentation on regulation sword blade “CAPT. E.R.WARNER 3RD US ARTILLERY”. This sword dates about 1870. There is a facsimile framed photograph of Warner from his West Point graduation. PROVENANCE: From the personal estate collection of John W. Armiger Jr. CONDITION: Sword is in fine condition retaining most of its original frost on blade with minor staining. Custom stand for sword also displays fishnet weave sash of unusual design through the middle. Civil War era epaulettes are fine in original Japanned tin case. Loose 1877 epaulettes are very good overall. 49055-175, 49055-192 (800-1,200) – Lot 2186

ECLECTIC GROUP OF 19th CENTURY CAMPAIGN TORCHES INCLUDING PAINTED “LINCOLN-HAMLIN” EXAMPLE.

In this grouping is: 1) A fine figural eagle torch measuring about 9″ square. Some texts attribute this to the Lincoln campaign and to an Republican organization known as “War Eagles”. This is a fine example of this style. Attached to an apparently original 59″ pole. Burners are complete and original. No discernible repairs. Good patina with dent to one side of breast. 2) Barrel torch patented October 19, 1880. Torch appears complete and functional including reservoir caps and burners. Made entirely of soldered tin. Measures about 37″ overall. 3) A kerosene reservoir with wick and its receptacle protrude above the feathers of this chapeau-de-bras. Interesting circa 1880 head gear with silk rosette, reinforced top and stiff liner, obviously made to accommodate the burner. Lining, sweat band missing. Several large internal tears but sound & solid and displays well. 4) Cylindrical torch, 4″ diameter x 3″ tall, soldered tin with “LINCOLN-HAMLIN”. Painted in 2″ high letters that totally fill the perimeter of this torch which is reminiscent of images of torches used by “Wide-Awakes”. The paint on this torch appears original and not recently applied with overall wear, surface and patination. The yoke that holds the torch appears consistent as does the burner which has some bends and chips but has been attached to a newer addition collar and pole. PROVENANCE: From the personal estate collection of John W. Armiger Jr. CONDITION: As described above. Interested parties should examine the Lincoln-Hamlin example as in our opinion it is original, but no warranties can be made based on opinion. 49055-13, 49055-38 (4,000-6,000) – Lot 2187

GROUPING OF 2 CIVIL WAR ID PINS AND FINE PATRIOTIC RIBBON.

1) Near pristine colorful patriotic ribbon measuring 5-3/4″ x 2-1/2″ with delicate scalloped edges, Lady Liberty holds a sword and a furled 34-star flag with the Capitol in the background flying the American flag. Other patriotic motifs above “THE UNION and the CONSTITUTION”. 2) A fine 29th Pennsylvania 12th Army Corps badge. This was a commercially made silver badge with a 1-1/4″ silver star with T-bar pin and raised central device with another star with “29” engraved. Badge is inscribed on reverse “C. Lhulier Co. F 29 RPV”. The 29th is a hard-fought unit in the Army of the Potomac, particularly strongly engaged at the Battle of Chancellorsville and the Battle of Gettysburg. The 12th Army Corps, after large losses at Gettysburg including nearly 100 casualties alone for the 29th, was sent to Tennessee where the combined 11th and 12th Corps became the 20th Corps, still utilizing the “star” for it’s Corps badge. Cassimer Lhulier enlisted as a private in July 1861 and saw every battle with the 29th finally being discharged in Atlanta, GA in July 1864 after being wounded at the Battle of New Hope Church near Dallas, GA May 25, 1864. 3) 1861 dated U.S. quarter with face removed and inscription “I.E. CROW 47TH WIS. VI. Co. G”. Inscription appears original, though not done by the most artistic hand, in block letters. Isaac E.

The 47th Wisconsin was organized February 27, 1865, and served as Garrison duty in Louisville and Nashville, TN where it stayed until mustering out on September 4, 1865. The 47th saw no action but did lose 35 men to disease and Private Crow died at the age of 25 in 1866 and is buried in Woods Cemetery, Bell Center, Crawford County, Wisconsin. This is a nice example of a Civil War ID pin, possibly inscribed by Crow himself. PROVENANCE: From the personal estate collection of John W. Armiger Jr. CONDITION: 1) Patriotic ribbon is fine overall with bright colors with slight fraying at bottom edge. Ribbon was tightly trimmed when manufactured on left side. 2) Two silver ID pins are very good to fine overall with silver patina with original pins. 49055-11 (2,000-3,000) – Lot 2189

MASSIVE ARCHIVE ON THE EARLY AMERICAN HISTORY OF SUBMARINES AND TORPEDOES INCLUDING 2 UNIQUE 19TH CENTURY MODELS AND MANY UNIQUE AND HISTORICALLY IMPORTANT ARCHITECTURAL DRAWINGS, RARE MANUSCRIPTS AND BOOKS.

This important and historic archive can never be duplicated and details the history of submarine and torpedo warfare from the early 18th century to the late 19th century. Fabulous engineering drawings, models, manuscripts, pamphlets and books have been compiled by a 50 year U S Navy Submariner (21 years active, 29 as a civilian). Incredible engineering diving boat model, circa 1813. This model greatly resembles the torpedo boats described in the War of 1812 letters and newspapers. The model measures 17-1/2″ x 4″ x 3-1/3″. The model has what appears to be a detachable lead keel. The top of the model is shaped in a curved, turtle shell appearance with two holes (fore and aft, center topside) installed, apparently to hold the masts when put into place, or to be used as air holes. A wooden belt, installed with 18th century cut nails, runs the full length of the craft, forward and aft along both port and starboard sides to act as a protective bumper. Original patina completely covers the whole model, the hand cut nail heads and the two broken spars/masts. The two broken spars (or masts) fit correctly in the two holes located fore and aft topside-center on the turtle-shell deck. Each spar/mast had been broken in the middle of each, one time. This apparent Engineering Ship’s model very closely resembles that vessel shown in a watercolor sketch made by British Lieutenant Bowen, after the British made a thorough inspection of the vessel, prior to blowing it up in July 1813. This model is quite similar to that shown in the sketch with exceptions – this model does not show the rudder as shown in Lieutenant Bowen’s sketch; the two topside fore-aft holes in the sketch are pictured as being located closer together than the two in the model. It is theorized that this engineering model may have been one version, perhaps slightly earlier than the final model. In a contemporary account on the Battle of Stonington, several British officers described and sketched it “She was 23′ long with a breadth of 10′. Her top was arched by the turtle shell and immensely strong. She had the scantling of a 100-ton ship which supported wooden top planking 8″ thick that was in turn cased over with 1/2” plate iron. Lieutenant Bowen of the Maidstone reported that she was “so strongly and well constructed that a shot cannot penetrate, or anything grapple with it”. Bowen’s report which generally confirmed and augmented the American newspaper accounts the semi- submersible drew 6′ of water, leaving only 1′ of boat exposed above the surface. The iron clad deck was painted dirty white to camouflage it. According to the British, the Turtle had a crew of 12, rather than the 9 reported by the American journalist. While the newspaper story suggested a torpedo boom of some sort, Lieutenant Bowen reported that she was designed to tow 5 floating torpedoes, each on its own lead. He was unable to explain how the crew would use these weapons against enemy ships. 2) Confederate Floating Tin Torpedo/Submarine This ‘floating tin torpedo’ was converted into a ‘submarine’ or DAVID type/HUNLEY style vessel by a U. S. Marine Corps sergeant shortly after the US Navy siege of Charleston was lifted. The Marine Corps sergeant had been stationed on board one of the US Navy ships taking part in the siege. During this period, the sergeant decided to make a model of the submarine that he and the other Marines had seen just prior to the explosion on the Houstatonic. He found a small cone shaped Confederate floating tin torpedo, ensured that the powder had all been dumped out of one end and he then soldered a small round conning tower onto the top rear portion of it. He installed diving planes on the rear conical sides and installed a rudder, all items which he claimed to have seen prior to the Houstatonic attack. This, he felt, was as close as he could come to copying the submarine he and the others had seen that night. After the war he took this submarine model, along with the story that went with it, back to his home in Lancaster County, PA. The little Confederate submarine eventually ended up being turned into a weather vane which was placed on top of the families barn where it remained until 1980. Every few years someone would remember to put a coat of black paint on this “Confederate submarine”/weathervane. In 1980 the family decided to have an auction and sell off all of the belongings in the home and farm. An antique dealer bid-in and got the whole pile of the U S Marine sergeants uniforms, guns, swords and cutlasses, the submarine (which had been taken down from the top of the barn in order to go into the auction), his medals and a grouping of approximately 114 letters written by the Marine Corps sergeant to his family back home during the War of the Rebellion. The dealer spent 10 years getting the letters transcribed and then he sold the letters as one lot to the Museum of Confederate History in South Carolina. After he sold the letters, the consignor purchased the submarine. This is numerous literature supporting this rare and unique Confederate model. There are 7 fabulous, unique engineering and architectural drawings of some of the earliest self-propelled torpedoes. 1) & 2) Moveable Submarine Torpedo – Hand drawn blueprints, January 1869 by John L. Lay. Two original inventors pen and ink drawings, one signed Submarine Boat by J.L. Lay, January 1869 – Buffalo, NY on separate folio sheets. The larger of the two drawings, 39″ x 22″ shows a diagram type drawing that displays a side view of the cylindrical torpedo body with conical ends and shows an interior reel fro the guidance wire to attach to. A second view on the larger diagram type drawing shows a fore/aft view of the sections in the torpedo. A third portion of this diagram shows a more detailed look at how the guidance wire hooks into the ‘torpedo submarine’. The smaller of the two drawings, 19-1/2″ x 25, shows 3 different views of the carbonic acid propulsion system and is located within the torpedo with a handwritten description: Carbonic Acid Gas Jet Propulsion as designed by J.L. Lay in October 1870. Self propelled torpedoes (or submarine torpedo boats {or just torpedo submarines} as they were sometimes called) were considered in the 1860’s and 1870’s to be the “Devil’s Device”, much as nuclear weapons are viewed in today’s society. Also included is a rare book Notes on Movable Torpedoes by Lt. Comdr. R.B. Bradford, U.S.N., 1882, 172 pages, published by the U.S. Torpedo Station, Newport, RI. 3) Fish Torpedo drawing/painting on cotton: dimensions are 3″ x 16″. 1880 description: this extremely interesting drawing of a torpedo is done on very fine gauge cotton fabric. The cotton’s surface is glazed to prepare it for the ink and paint used to render the image. Paint colors used include yellows, grays, black, blue, green, brown and red. The glaze, paints and inks are all water sensitive. The torpedo is shown in 2 longitudinal cross-sections as well as the forward and aft transverse cross-section of one area. The number “79” is stenciled in black paint at the top center of the drawing above the image. The condition: the cotton drawing is rolled around an acid free roller. The drawing is inter-leafed with silicone coated Mylar to prevent any sticking of the rolled drawing. This drawing was conserved by the Textile Conservation Workshop, Inc., South Salem, NY. All conservation documents are included. 4)One-Half Full Size Blueprint of the Hall TorpedoThe Hall Torpedo was undergoing trials at the U.S. Naval Torpedo Station, Newport, RI during the year 1888. Torpedo length, 12″ x 14-1/2″. Accompanied by a 8″ x 10″ engraving of John L. Lay with facsimile signature. Copyright 1875 by Virtue and Yornston. A 3 page biography of Colonel John L. Lay, with summary of “Submarine Warfare – Torpedoes (circa 1875). Discusses “The Lay System of Movable Torpedoes”. 5) Submarine Torpedo Boat Very early blueprint measuring 17″ x 28″ designed by John Holland, including Holland’s blueprinted signature. The blueprint has 2 views of the “Holland #4″ including the 28′ x 12” Dynamite Gun which Holland installed in the submarine. The submarine was also known as “The Zalinski Boat”. Capt. Zalinski paid for much of the construction of this submarine designed by John P. Holland. Years later when Holland Submarine Torpedo Boat #6 was purchased by the U S Navy and thusly became the USS Holland, a Zalinski pneumatic dynamite gun was part of the Hollands’ armament. 6) & 7) 2 large, illustrated drawings of “Devil Fish Torpedoes” by Dr. James Henry McLean. 2 drawings measure 24″ x 15″ and 17″ x 13″. Pen, ink and color on silk paper with scale of 1/2″ to a foot on larger drawings and 1/4″ to a foot on smaller drawing. Dr. James Henry McLean was an inventor and patentee who published portions of these original drawings and a very rare book, which accompanies these. McLean’s ideas did seem to take heed as compressed air motors on torpedoes were utilized soon after. The detailed architectural drawings dating 1869-1870 give a wonderful insight into the early evolution and appearance of these “devils devices” which by WWI would be feared world wide. Accompanying this archive is an incredible research library of rare books, original manuscripts and documents not already described above. 1) 1814 Sag Harbor Letter – Torpedo and British Attack: A historically important letter from Ebenezer Sage (NY Congressman) to Dr. William Crawford in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania (PA Congressman): Among other things, Sage’s letter details the exploits of a Joshua Penny and the Torpedo Boat. ‘On the night of July 26, 1813, Penny led the boats, which were under the command of a Lieutenant Gallagher, back across the Sound. They took on 9 British boats that were lying in Gardiners Bay, and later made prisoners of an entire British crew, 7 men and 2 officers. “They fired on us for about half an hour, and threw shot in all directions about us while we were rowing in our whaleboats. Their last 18 pound shot struck about 6 feet from the boat’s stern and threw water all over us, when Lieutenant ordered us to ‘avast oars’ and give the British three cheers for that shot”…After his release from British prison, one more chance to do mischief against the British presented itself to Penny. “I had not been long at home before I was invited to engage in another torpedo enterprise”, he wrote, (submarine torpedo boat). “But failed in consequence of bad weather and I removed my family as advised to Sag Harbor.”…You will recall a Joshua Penny who was last summer taken from his bed near there by a crew off a British barge, carried on board, put in irons and upon allowance of bread and water conveyed to Halifax…his crime was being employed as a pilot to a torpedo boat…I observed the 2 frigates (which lay before this harbor) make sail and steer for the place where the torpedo was…The Captain of the torpedo, after re-mooring the apparatus, put a barrel of powder into the boat and some straw and set fire to it, but the straw being wet did not explode under half an hour. 2) Pay order for David Bushnell, April 8, 1785, inventor of the world’s first submarine ever used in combat. The “Turtle” was used 3 times during the course of the American Revolution. Bushnell is also noted for inventing the first time bomb and gunpowder that exploded under water. 3) Torpedoes and Torpedo Warfare by C. Sleeman, 1889. 350 pages, illustrated with fold-out plates. 4) National Intelligencer, July 15, 1813: A gentleman from Norwich has invented a diving boat, which by means of paddles he can propel underwater at the rate of 3 miles an hour, and ascend and descend at pleasure. He has made a number of experiments and has been 3 times under the bottom of the Ramiles, off New London. 5) Columbian Centinel, June 30, 1812: “Floating Torpedo” another interesting article. The Columbian, New York City, Monday, July 9, 1814. Another article talking about torpedo and a boat called “The Turtle”. 6) General Advertiser, Philadelphia, July 20, 1807. Early mention of Robert Fulton offering to make a practice torpedo run with his “diving boat” near Ellis Island. He requests presence of Governor and Mayor of New York. He will show how to blow up a brig of 200 tons. 7) The Weekly Register, Baltimore, July 24, 1813 (16 pages, lots of war coverage).

FINE DOUBLE AUTOGRAPH ENDORSEMENT SIGNED G.A. CUSTER, BREVET MAJOR GENERAL USA, LT. COL. 7TH CAV, CAMP STURGIS, DAKOTA TERRITORY, APRIL 27, 1873 FROM DIRECT DESCENT OF LIBBIE CUSTER.

“Proceedings of a Board of Survey” convened at Camp Sturgis, D.T. by S.O. no 5, Hdqrs Det. 7th Cavalry dated April 19, 1873. On the interior of the page, Custer simply writes “Approved” and on the verso he has instructed to “Respectfully forward” the report. With additional “endorsement” by the assistant adjutant general, by command of Brigadier Gen. Alfred H. Terry, commander of the Dakota Territory, explaining that the report is “Respectfully returned to Lieut. Colonel GA Custer commanding Battalion 7th Cavalry Ft. Sully, D.T. with the information that in accordance with instructions from these headquarters…proceedings of Boards of Survey are required to be forwarded …in triplicate”. The AAG’s rather harsh comments – he underlined the bolded portion in red – are clearly intended to remind Custer of his place in the chain of command. At the close of the Civil War, Custer’s brevet rank of major general revered to his regular rank of captain in the United States Army. He was subsequently promoted to lieutenant colonel, but no longer had the right to refer to his brevet, which may have rankled Brigadier General Terry, whose regular rank would have been below Custer’s claimed brevet (or temporary) rank. It may have further annoyed Terry that Custer’s promotion to lieutenant colonel was widely considered a political reward for his support of President Andrew Johnson. PROVENANCE: General George A and Elizabeth Custer, Margaret Flood (Libbie Custer’s personal assistant), Spink Smythe, Lot 1082, August 22, 2012.

RARE GROUP OF FIVE CUSTER FAMILY AUTOGRAPHED LETTERS INCLUDING BROTHERS GEORGE, TOM AND NEVIN ALL WITH FINE CONTENT.

Letters from George Custer’s brothers Tom and Nevin are very rare. Also included are letters of sisters Margaret and Anne Custer. 1) George A. Custer: fine content A.L.S. “G. A. Custer US Army” with initialed postscript, 2pp. 4to., “Ft Lincoln Dakota (Territory)”, Feb. 27, 1875, to powerful New York Sen. Roscoe Conkling, entirely on the subject of securing a promotion for one of his officers, A. E. Smith, who would be killed while commanding Co. E at Little Big Horn. Custer writes, in part: “…I would be glad if you would present the claims of Lieut. Smith, as set forth in accompanying documents, to the appointing powers, and use your well known influence to secure for him the appointments of Captain…Lt. Smith is a constituent of yours, having entered the volunteers service from Utica…Since the war he has served with marked credit and ability in the regular army, most of the time under my command. You will see from Genl. Terry’s endorsement that Lt. Smith’s service during the rebellion was in the highest degree commendable. His character for integrity, morality and for all that would fit him, to discharge the duties of the position for which he has been recommended is not inferior to that of any other officer of my acquaintance…”. 2) Thomas Custer: Tom was the only Civil War soldier to twice be awarded the Medal of Honor and by war’s end was serving on his brother’s staff. At the end of the war, Custer joined his brother George in the 7th Cavalry and ultimately fought at Little Big Horn, where Capt. Thomas Custer commanded Co. C and was likely one of the very last men of the command to meet his end at the hands of the Indian defenders. Outstanding and very rare A.L.S. “Tom”, 1p 4to., Washington, Oct. 22, 1866 to his brother Gen. George Armstrong Custer in which Tom gleefully announces that an Army board had approved his joining his brother’s command of the 7th Cavalry at Ft Riley, Kansas, a move that ten years later would see the three Custer brothers killed at the Little Big Horn. In part: “…I was before the Board today and passed examination. I will leave tomorrow evening if possible. I expect to arrive at Ft Riley about two weeks from tomorrow…”. 3) Nevin Custer: A sickly child, Nevin never served in the military but instead remained in Monroe tending the family farm. He would be the last surviving male in his family. Rare A.L.S. “Nev”, 6pp. 8vo., Tontagang, Mar. 2, 1870 in pencil to his brother Gen. George A. Custer, then serving at Ft Leavenworth, Kansas. In part “…Tom told you about me selling my place. I get the first payment tomorrow…I have been looking for a letter from you for some time to see what you think is best for me to do…If I went to Kansas to come out and look or move right along, what town do you think you would buy near…plenty timber and most all bottom land…there is a great many talks of going to Kansas…I think I can raise about one thousand dollars to take with me…you spoke…about us dropping in on you without telling you about it. You need not be uneasy…you would not get me to do that with so many little ones. If them soldiers would catch us coming in the fort, we would be arrested and put under guard…”With holograph transmittable envelope (stamp removed). 4) Margaret Custer: “Maggie”, sister of Gen. George A. Custer and wife of First Lt. James A. Calhoun. After a two year courtship – carried on principally by correspondence – the pair married March 7, 1872. Calhoun would be killed four years later at the Little Big Horn. 5) Anne Custer: Sister of George A. Custer, wife of Capt. George Yates who was killed at the Little Big Horn. Pair of letters from each, 4pp. total, Monroe, MI, August 24-25, 1865 to their brother George, mostly relating news of family and friends, marriages, deaths, Maggie’s poor health, etc.”…I wish you would sell your horses…it costs a great deal to keep so many horses..” With holograph envelopes addressed to Custer in Houston. CONDITION: Overall letters are very good to fine as can be seen in photos. Typical folds and light soiling and staining as typical with 19th century paper. 48441-18 (12,000-15,000) – Lot 2217

MYSTERIOUS LOVE LETTER SIGNED “MACK X” WRITTEN TO GENERAL GEORGE A. CUSTER RECEIVED THE DAY AFTER HE STARTED HIS LITTLE BIG HORN CAMPAIGN.

3 pages, small 8vo, no place, (but sent via railroad post on the Pennsylvania RR New York to Washington route, and then on the Chicago and Grand Rapids RR), May 14, 1876. The writer frantically pens “Why don’t you write? Even if you were starting out on a march, I should think you might with a pencil send a mark even, to so true a friend as I am to you – You talked about postal cards – Even they would have been welcome. I am left in the dark with regard to your movements. All I hear is what I see in the papers – little enough for a hungry friend. Wherever you are send a letter to me directing it to me if you choose (It will be safest of course) right away – but write do, and wherever you are, may God have you in His holy keeping”. With orig envelope marked “Personal” directed to “Genl Geo A. Custer/Fort Lincoln/Dakota Territory”, with post marks of the aforementioned railroad post offices and stamped “MISSENT” by the Chicago & Grand Rapids, whose post mark gives the date of May 18. It was on May 17 that Custer and his men rode out from Fort Abraham Lincoln, making the five week march to the banks of the Little Big Horn River in Montana, where they would meet their bloody end. This letter would seem to give support to claims made by Custer’s fellow officers that he engaged in extramarital affairs. It is difficult to put any other construction on so ardent a plea for communication, and the suggestion that sending it directly to the writer would be safest, perhaps keeping it out of the hands of a jealous husband or disapproving parent! Custer would never live to read this letter, leaving us with the unpleasant certainty that it was subsequently opened and read by his famously devoted wife. PROVENANCE: General George A and Elizabeth Custer, Margaret Flood (Libbie Custer’s personal assistant), Spink Smythe, Lot 1090, August 22, 2012. CONDITION: Cracking starting at folds.

1-page letter in pencil, octavo. Sandy Hook, MD, September 14, 1864. After rushing from Washington, where he had enjoyed a few brief days with his wife, Libbie, to join Gen. Philip Sheridan at Harpers Ferry, WV, he wires back to Mr. Stires at the Metropolitan Hotel asking him to “Call at the National and get an express package for me.” Sheridan had summoned his daring cavalry commander in haste after General Ulysses S Grant ordered Sheridan to get back to the business of neutralizing Confederate General Jubal Early, who had been making raids into West Virginia, Maryland and Pennsylvania, The armies soon clashed for a third time at Winchester, VA on September 19th. Sheridan and Custer were victorious in the battle, after which the Union would have the upper hand in the Shenandoah Valley, ultimately earasing the threat posed by Early’s forces.

LARGE ARCHIVE FROM BATTLE OF LITTLE BIGHORN SURVIVOR WINFIELD SCOTT EDGERLY.

Winfield Scott Edgerly was a survivor of the Battle of the Little Bighorn serving as Lt. with Troop D under Reno’s command. He would later see action with the 7th Cavalry at the Battle of Wounded Knee. He rose to the rank of Brigider General and retired just prior to WWI. This archive includes fine framed vellum commission signed by Pres. Chester Arthur in 1883 when Edgerly became Capt. in the 7th US Cavalry, fine framed 9″ x 11″ photograph, about 30 orig documents and letters including a fine 2-pg autographed letter written Jul. 1883, just prior to promotion to Captain, and a rare letter from Libby Custer to Edgerly’s wife written in Mar. 1877 which is quite sentimental concerning the memories of General Custer and his officers killed less than a year earlier at the Little Bighorn. Edgerly graduated from West Point in 1870 and was appointed 2nd Lieutenant in the 7th US Calvary and stayed with that unit for most of his career. Among the albums of Edgerly family memorabilia include articles and newspaper clippings concerning Edgerly & Custer along with several photographs and letters from Edgerly, obituary, various special orders and receipts. Also included is a copy of Scalp Dance, The Edgerly Papers on the Battle of the Little Big Horn. by George Clark, 1985. The commission in this archive is pictured on rear end paper of this scarce book. This is a very interesting archive with much ephemera from one of the most important surviving officers in Reno’s Fight. CONDITION: Commission is very fine as framed with discernible signatures & text. Framed photograph is also very good as framed. Letters are overall very good. The Libby Custer letter is trimmed at top written on thin glassine paper with dark blue ink which is easily discerned. (It is interesting to note that Libby wrote her name as “Mrs. G.A. Custer” at top.) Interested parties should view this archive as the majority of pieces are very good to fine, however there are scattered areas of soiling, foxing & acid burn associated with such a large grouping of paper & ephemera. 48534-1 (8,000-12,000) – Lot 2222

ENVELOPE WRITTEN BY GEORGE ARMSTRONG CUSTER WHICH CONTAINED THE LETTER ASKING PERMISSION OF JUDGE DANIEL BACON FOR LIBBIE’S HAND IN MARRIAGE.

From direct family descent are found two envelopes addressed to Judge Daniel Bacon along with a fine CDV of Judge Bacon taken in 1862 docketed in pencil (by Margaret Flood, Libbie Custer’s personal assistant), on the October 18th dated “Autie’s letter asking his permission to marry his daughter”. Second envelope is docketed “Letter thanking father for his consent…”. It is noted that Judge Bacon wanted better for Libbie than a soldier and it took lots of urging. These are the only personal effects of George & Libbie Custer’s concerning proposal to one of America’s most iconic couples. Libbie Custer, after George’s death at Little Big Horn, spent the rest of her life immortalizing her husband’s memory. Margaret Flood inherited after Libbie’s death, many of her personal items including letters and ephemora.

GEORGE CUSTER’S CAVALRY DIVISION BADGE ISSUED TO CAPTAIN BENJAMIN B. TUTTLE.

10.07gms – silver shell, bar and ribbon. 38mm across/42mm high/2mm thick. By Hunt & Co. Design: Inside inner circle, leftward facing bust of Custer with name above, wreath around, 5 points radiate from circle with spurs and boots at angles, flags with crossed swords at left and right with large set of crossed swords at top. Crossbar: Hand engraved “Capt. B.B. Tuttle Co. D. 1. C. C. V.” with flourishes. The Union’s Custer Cavalry Badge was adopted by General Custer and issued to Captain Benjamin B. Tuttle of Bridgeport, CT. Tuttle entered the Army as part of the Connecticut 1st Cavalry in November of 1861, eventually rising to the rank of Captain of the “D” Company on February 2, 1865 and mustering out in August 1865. It is interesting to note that when Tuttle was promoted to Captain, the unit was detailed to escort General Grant at Appomattox to receive Lee’s surrender. Lt. Colonel Whittaker of the 1st Connecticut was Custer’s Chief of Staff and made the negotiation which stopped the fighting at Appomattox while carrying the flag of truce ending up in Custer’s estate. The 1st Connecticut was praised by Sheridan for their dispersing of the enemy’s cavalry at the Battle of Cedar Creek where they were the forward regiment led by Custer on that decisive battle on October 19, 1864. The crossbar, attached at the top of the ribbon with pin-back, references the Captain rank, thus dating the piece towards the end of his duty. According to a period advertisement of the medal, red ribbons, as was used on the present, were given to the 1st Brigade with white being second and blue being third. Like examples are certainly rare, as the last traceable example to reach public auction was sold as part of the John J. Ford Collection, Part VII (Starks, NYC) in January 2005. That example, incomplete, was missing the orig ribbon and bar that identified ownership – a pin had also been added on back to allow for presentation without ribbon. Close inspection reveals a subtle difference in the two medals – the Ford specimen having a “3” on both flags that flank the central design while the present has crossed swords. This very rare Custer medal is among the finest examples that can be found. PROVENANCE: General George A and Elizabeth Custer, Margaret Flood (Libbie Custer’s personal assistant), Spink Smythe, Lot 1074, August 22, 2012. CONDITION: The Tuttle badge has acquired a deep olive-gray patina with a minuscule tick here and there of little visual consequence. Two tiny stems are originally present at the bottom of the medal, one appearing to have broken off at one time. The silk red ribbon remains exceptionally fresh with bright color and a tight weave. Lastly, the engraved silver pin-back flourish bar is toned at the edges with brilliance at the centers where the name engraving is encountered. A minor bend is noted. Certainly a significant offering, both because of its relation to Custer and its direct attachment to a Union solider. While the connection remains unknown though further research may discover the connection, the inclusion of this medal alongside several of Custer’s personal affects is intriguing and could spur further research into a closer linkage between the two. 48441-1 (8,000-12,000) – Lot 2230

Donald McIntosh and Lt. Algernon E. Smith who were both killed alongside Custer. This is one of the nicest groupings for condition, content and overall aesthetics of signatures for a group of Custer’s 7th Cavalry officers. 1) Donald McIntosh:(1838-1876) American military officer, first lieutenant who assumed the command of Co. G, killed in the valley fight at the Little Big Horn. Rare manuscript D.S. as 2nd Lt. of the 7th Cavalry, 1p. 4to., Ft.

PAIR OF RARE EUROPEAN VALOR AND SERVICE MEDALS PERSONALLY OWNED BY GENERAL GEORGE A CUSTER.

This most interesting pair of medals was found in the same box with Custer’s personal M.O.L.L.U.S. medal sold in our March 2015 rare firearms sale along with other personal medals of George and Libbie Custer. 1) Spanish military Medal of Valor, Discipline and Loyalty from Carlist Wars. 20.14gms – silvered brass and ribbon. 35mm. By: E. Falot (French maker) below bust and stamped with “C” on edge. Obv: Leftward facing Alfonso XSII. Rev: VALOR/DISCIPLINA/LEALTAD inside wreath with crown at top. Ribbon: Yellow with two 4mm red vertical stripes near edges. Ribbon Bars: Elgueta, Oria, Tolosa. Lightly worn with brassy color on the high-points and silver-colored fields. Suspension bar for ribbon has been bent. The original ribbon shows in a somewhat tattered shape with three bars and the original pin for suspension is missing. A scarce medal when signed by E. Falot and while not awarded to a particular soldier (as is typical of this type), the fact that this medal accompanies the General Custer-owned pieces, and may have some personal connection, makes it particularity intriguing. 2) 1854 British Crimean War Service Medal. 40.26gms – silver and ribbon. 36mm. By: W. Wyon (British maker). Obv: leftward facing crowned Victoria. Rev: Allegorical fame crowning soldier with laurel wreath; Crimea in left field. Ribbon: Light blue in center with thin yellow stripe at edge. Ribbon Bar: Sebastopol. Lightly polished, but remaining nearly fully detailed and re-toned nicely. The orig ribbon remains attached and aside from being moderately soiled remains in fine condition. Unmarked on the edge, thus withholding name of awardee. Overall, a charming example from this well-known conflict against the Russian Empire. A medal that raises more questions than it provides answers as it is part of an archive that was personally owned by General George Custer, but the reason for this particular medal’s inclusion remains a mystery. While speculartory, a possible reason behind the inclusion of this medal alongside Custer’s personal medals can be tied to General McClellan. During the Crimean War, the Army sent McClellan between 1853 and 1856 as an observer. During that time, he reported largely on the siege operations around Sebastopol. This work may have very well garnered him a medal of observation (differentiated from the other medals by the lack of edge engraving). Later in his military career, McClellan served as mentor for Custer – their mutual fondness being well documented. It’s this affinity that leaves open the possibility that McClellan may have gifted the observers Crimean medal to Custer at some point, perhaps at his passing. PROVENANCE: General George A and Elizabeth Custer, Margaret Flood (Libbie Custer’s personal assistant), Spink Smythe, Lot 1075 and 1076, August 22, 2012. CONDITION: As described above. 48441-2 (1,500-3,000) – Lot 2232

On verso is an endorsement by Alfred H. Terry (1827-1890) Union brigadier general and commander of the expedition leading to George Custer’s death at the Little Big Horn. He forwards the letter to Walsh, noting: “…I had no authority as Department commander to take any action upon the letter of Major Walsh…the United States makes no claims to the horse in question…”. there is also an endorsement signed by William D. Whipple (1826-1902) Union brigadier general and Chief of Staff of George H. Thomas at Chattanooga and Atlanta, sending the document to Terry. SIZE: 8″ x 10″.

Included in this archive from direct family descent are three fine cabinet cards of Godfrey with various ranks. There is a rare copy of General George A. Custer and the Battle of Little Big Horn with a presentation to his nephew and niece, “The Alts”, with large autograph as Brigadier General. Another rare pamphlet also written by Godfrey (whose family this descended) included in this grouping “Some Reminiscences, Including the Washita Battle, November 27, 1868.” There is a poem written by Billy Alt found in this book with historic events taken from the text which ends “The Indians fought for their right. That’s what made the awful fight. Custer was shot in temple and breast. After the battle he was laid to rest.” There is a wonderful photograph of Godfrey on horseback at the 50th Anniversary of the Little Big Horn fight, June 25, 1926 inscribed on verso “Meeting former hostiles on Custer Ridge…for greetings and exchange of presents to cement perpetual peace. General Godfrey presented an American flag to Sioux Chief White Bull who presented the General with the blanket seen on his saddle.” There are a fine group of photographs from Ft. Riley, Kansas which General Godfrey was in charge circa 1900 showing such images as “Indian curiosities” and “views of Cavalrymen on horseback jumping obstacles”, and another on a bucking bronc. Godfrey pioneered “rough riding” Here. There are numerous other family photographs all the way up to WWII. There are also family letters to Rudolph Alt of varying content, including an invitation of our poem writer Billy Alt’s high school commencement at Robert E. Lee High School in 1931, Jacksonville, FL. The sword in this grouping is a regulation Model 1860 staff and field officers sword, marked “US Armory, Springfield, Mass” and inspected “CCS”. I’m not sure why Godfrey would have had a staff officer’s sword as he was a Cavalry officer, but this sword does date his time as a officer in the 7th US Cavalry. CONDITION: Condition of paper items good to fine overall. Some photographs have light fading, various defects and blemishes. Pamphlets are both complete with chipping and staining and Washita bent and creased.. Sword is very good overall, markings all discernible, 31″ blade is overall grey with staining and pitting.

FOUR VERY RARE PONY EXPRESS STAMPS.

In 1860, the call went out for small, brave young men that could ride a horse well. The rides were dangerous, but the pay was good. These were the Pony Express riders usually younger than 18 years old who were expected to cover 250 miles a day in spite of inclement weather and Indian attacks. Before 1860, it could take up to eight weeks to get mail from the East Coast to California. For the businessmen and bankers in growing Sacramento, that was too long. As the Civil War approached, they wanted news quickly and both the Union and the South wanted to persuade the state to join its side. The Central Overland California and Pikes Peak Express Company developed the Pony Express to reduce the time it took to get news from the North to California. The first ride left St. Joseph, Missouri on April 3, 1860, and arrived in Sacramento, California just ten days later. In April 1861, Wells Fargo and Company took over the Pony Express routes west of Salt Lake City. To make accounting easier and to advertise their company, they hired Britton and Company to print stamps for the eastbound mail from California. Four rare varieties of Pony Express stamps are represented here, 10c, 25c blue, 25c red and $1. The red $1 stamp here is especially scarce and an actual cancelled example. $1 red was used to cover the fee for a half ounce letter and was used from July 1861 until October 1861. The Virginia City Pony Express was established in August of 1862 as strictly a Wells Fargo company project, running from San Francisco, Sacramento, Carson City and Virginia City. The rates on this run started at 25 cents per half ounce and down to 10 cents between California and Virginia City. The red 25 cent stamp was used during the final months of service and is very rare. CONDITION: Good to very good, red 25c has fold and reductions in upper right hand corner, is glued to paper backing. The cancelled $1 has light fading and staining but retains full borders. 48441-12 (3,000-5,000) – Lot 2241

Cecil Calvert (1605-1675) was the first Lord of Baltimore to actually have control over the colony of Maryland. Cecil was the proprietor of the chartered colony until his death but never actually visited. There is a family ink inscription on verso of print “The Property of Christopher Alderson Calvert, son of John Calvert, grandson of Solomon Calvert… given by me to my brother William 7 Jan. 1845”. Other examples can be found in the Maryland Historical Society and the Huntington Library. 2) A framed 29″ x 18-1/2″ vellum legal document stating “Conveyance of the Backlands on the Western Branch of the Patuxent River in Maryland, June 25, 1742”. Typical English indenture is unusual referring to “Provence of Maryland in America”. The land describes a tract of about 300 acres in Prince George County, MD. Numerous signatures and mention of Lord Baltimore, tax stamps and other seals. 3) A framed about 30″ x 22″ silk embroidered central debias from an early City of Baltimore flag of unknown origin which exhibits the Maryland State Seal with the Coat of Arms of the Calverts (Lord Baltimore).

Spines have raised ribs with gilt title and decorations. Catlin traveled throughout the Great Plains from 1830 to 1836 and produced more than 500 paintings and sketchings based on his travels. Catlin’s association with General William Clark, former leader of the Lewis and Clark expedition and Governor of Missouri, led him to the west. Here he wandered, virtually alone and painted some 48 Indian tribes. Often one of the first whites to encounter the tribe, he lived with them and recorded their daily life and secret ceremonies. This is his most important literary work and a foundation work of Western Americana. The original pieces of art were exhibited in the United States and Europe starting in 1837 culminating in his best known books which we are offering here. CONDITION: Fine and tight with minor soiling on front of volume 2. Some rubbing and scuffing to high areas of bindings. Wear and reductions especially to corners and top and bottom edges of spine.

HISTORIC FABRIC FROM THE WRIGHT BROTHERS KITTY HAWK FLYER FIRST MANNED POWERED AIR PLANE FLIGHT.

This swatch of fabric measuring about 1-3/4″ x 1-3/4″ is mounted on an original printed sheet that other similar swatches are known and have sold in auction, signed by Ivonette Wright Miller niece of Orville and Wilbur Wright and one of the Wright Brother’s executors along with husband Harold Miller (see recent sales Heritage Auctions, Lot 47024, 11/17/2009; Bonhams, Lot 4, 3/25/2013 and Lot 187, 9/22/2014 for similar sales). Orville Wright reassembled the famous Kitty Hawk flyer for its first exhibition in 1916 at MIT. Finding the original fabric damaged by the Dayton Flood of 1913, he substituted new fabric and kept some of the original fabric which a sample is offered here. Ivonette Wright Miller had taken her first ride with Orville in 1911 in a Wright Flyer being, along with her two sisters, the first girls in America to fly. Ivonette represented the family at commemorative events, particularly after Orville’s death in 1948. She wrote a book about her famous uncles Wright Reminiscences. She kept a large family archive of family records which is now in the possession of Wright State University. Katie Reist, who the certificate was prepared for according to consignor was his grandmother and a friend of Ivonette’s. SIZE: 8-1/2″ x 10-1/2″. CONDITION: Very good overall as framed. Certificate has light fading and foxing around edges. Fabric is sound as originally glued to certificate in its designated mounting square.

AMELIA EARHART FIRST WOMAN TO FLY CROSS THE ATLANTIC HISTORIC AND UNIQUE ARCHIVE.

After Charles Lindbergh’s solo flight in 1927, a wealthy American woman named Amy Phipps Guest (1873 – 1959) decided she wanted to be the first woman to fly across the Atlantic. After her family objected, Guest asked aviator Richard Byrd and publisher George Putnam (who later would become Earhart’s manager and husband) to find the “right sort of girl for the trip”. There are many reasons Guest selected Amelia Earhart. One is she greatly resembled Charles Lindbergh, had a wholesome “all American” personality and of course she was an accomplished pilot who owned two airplanes and had logged over 500 hours in the air. Although Earhart had little or no time at the controls during the flight, she even stated that she felt like “a sack of potatoes”. Nonetheless, reporters were only interested in her story and not Wilmer Stoltz or Lou “Slim” Gordon who actually piloted the plane. Earhart would have reception back in America with a ticker tape parade in New York City and a reception at the White House by President Calvin Coolidge. The “Friendship Flight” from June 17 – June 29, 1928 from New Foundland to South Wales across the Atlantic brought Amelia international attention and she became one of the most famous aviators in the world. Amelia, would however, be the first woman to ever pilot a plane across the Atlantic, flying solo in a record time of 13 hours and 13 minutes. This historic flight took place May 20 – 21, 1932. Aviation at this time was quite hazardous. At least 7 people died attempting what Lindbergh and Earhart had done in 1927 alone. Earhart’s many awards and accolades continued throughout her life in aviation until her death where she was lost at sea in 1937. Wilmer Stultz, the pilot of the Friendship Flight and among the most famous aviators of his day, died the following year at the age of 30 in a flying incident. There was a tremendous amount of intrigue and suspense in who would become the first woman to cross the Atlantic. Several teams were started and several died. Amy Phipps Guest financed Wilmer Stultz along with Arctic Explorer Richard Byrd and publisher George Putnam to be the team. A series of telegrams in this archive show that not only Earhart and Stultz were attempting to leave New Foundland, but also a rival; Mabel Boll who had offered a pilot $100,000 Francs to pilot her across the Atlantic from Paris. According to the telegrams between Stultz and his wife, Stultz wife mentions Mabel and the foggy weather at Old Orchard Beach a week prior to the flight, and on day before flight “Mabel can’t beat you”. This was indeed a race to be the first; that little is known. This archive includes 105 telegrams from mostly June 3 – June 20, 1928. The pre-flight telegrams mostly concern weather conditions prior to flight as transmitted by Stultz and his wife and whereabouts of Mabel Boll. At 8:30pm June 16, Stultz telegrams his wife “Looks like we may get off in the morning. Hope so anyway.” The next 2 pages in album show the only manuscript notes and state as follows “June 17 Q.S.T. Radio from Friendship to Mrs. W. Stultz: “Passed through banks of snow and fog. Everything going fine now, Wilmer.” A second radio message from Friendship: “Everything going fine. No signature”. The next telegram sent from London to Wilmer’s wife…”LANDED HERE OKAY AFTER TWENTY HOURS AND FORTY MINUTES”. Amelia Earhart’s book which mimics this telegram 20 Hours, 40 Minutes, Our Flight in the Friendship. The American Girl, First Across the Atlantic by Air, Tells Her Story. This book was published soon after this telegram and by the fall of 1928 Amelia had become the aviation editor of Cosmopolitan Magazine and was touring and lecturing. This fabulous archive through a series of personal telegrams to Amelia’s pilot Wilmer Stultz details this iconic American achievement. These telegrams and two original pilots licenses for Wilmer Stultz are both signed by Orville Wright and are quite rare and are included. A souvenir booklet published by his hometown July 18, 1928 Williamsburg, PA accompanies this archive. Among the numerous telegrams are many notables congratulating Stultz and Earhart on their historic flight. Researching many who sent telegrams would no doubt make an interesting story. CONDITION: Scrapbook of telegrams is very good overall. Telegrams are all laid onto individual pages. Licenses both have small creases but text is discernable including signatures of Orville Wright. The 1925 license has a date stamped over 1924. 1927 license has two blind stamps over signatures on either side, where earlier license has a single authoritative stamp. Souvenir booklet is excellent. 49131-1 (40,000-50,000) – Lot 3259

ARCHIVE OF WWII LETTERS OF “DUTCH” VAN KIRK, NAVIGATOR ON THE ENOLA GAY WHICH DROPPED THE FIRST ATOMIC BOMB.

Theodore J. “Dutch” Van Kirk entered the United States Army Air Corps in 1941. As a young lieutenant Van Kirk flew as navigator on 58 combat missions with the 97th Bomb Group over occupied France and later deep into Germany to some of the most heavily defended targets of the Third Reich. In addition, Van Kirk was selected to fly General Mark Clark on a secret mission to negotiate with the Free French in Algeria as a prelude to Operation Torch, the invasion of North Africa. In addition, Van Kirk was chosen as navigator aboard the aircraft that carried General Dwight D. Eisenhower to the invasion site. Pilot Paul Tibbets, navigator Van Kirk, bombardier Thomas Ferebee and fellow crew members aboard the B-17 Flying Fortress “Red Gremlin” were eventually selected as the primary members of the crew of the Enola Gay, the world’s first atomic bomber. Van Kirk who died July 28, 2014 was the last surviving crew member of the Enola Gay. Most WWII American aviators had little training going into the Army Air Corp. Dutch was an exception in that he attended flight school in Chicago prior to going into service when he went into Air Corp training. This archive consists of about 300 letters of which 137 are written by Dutch to his family and friends concerning his training and early service in the Air Corp October 4, 1941 through February 7, 1944. There are no letters concerning the atomic bomb as those letters are archived elsewhere but this grouping does detail his time preparing for his historic Enola Gay flight The remainder of the letters are to Dutch from family and friends, many with envelopes bearing military addresses. Dutch had his training in navigation at Kelley Field, San Antonio, Texas where some letters are from. In 2012 Dutch published his biography My True Course: Dutch Van Kirk, Northumberland to Hiroshima. This archive no doubt was used in compiling this biography. PROVENANCE: Family of Theodore “Dutch” Van Kirk. CONDITION: Very good overall. Interested parties should view this incredible archive in person. 48849-1 (30,000-50,000) – Lot 3261

LARGE PHOTOGRAPHIC IMAGE OF THE FAMOUS CHIEF JOSEPH OF THE NEZ PERCE INDIANS.

This late 19th/early 20th century image is on a large glass plate mounted in a window frame. It depicts one of the greatest Indian Chiefs of all time, Joseph of the Nez Perce Indians. The Nez Perce were a peaceful tribe living on the west coast of the United States in the latter part of the 19th century. They were responsible for the famous Appaloosa horse, they were skilled farmers, and attempted to live in harmony with the white men, but to no avail. The extraordinary Chief Joseph finally made the decision to lead his people to Canada where they hopefully could live their lives in peace. The U.S. Government dispatched a cavalry after them to force them to a reservation of the government’s choosing. Chief Joseph would have nothing of that and took his entire tribe and headed to Canada. On the way, they were attacked on multiple occasions sometimes by overwhelming forces with the most modern weaponry. Joseph and his entire band, in each case, managed to out fight and elude the U.S. Cavalry. Finally with many or most of his braves dead and his people nearly starving, they thought they had finally made it into Canada, stopped established a camp and later were surrounded by the U.S. Cavalry, only then discovering that they were still within the borders of the United States. The Cavalry captured them and forced them onto a reservation. This is an image of the handsome Chief standing in the landscape. SIZE: 22-1/4” wide x 23” high (glass only). 27” wide x 36-1/2” high (including the frame). CONDITION: There is some deterioration to the photographic image on either side of Joseph.

ATTRIBUTED TO ZHANG DAQIAN (Chinese, 1899-1983) CONTEMPLATING UPON SUMMER MOUNTAINS.

Contemplating upon Summer Mountains Ink and colors on paper, mounted on board, dated gengshen, sixty-ninth year (of the Republic of China, 1980) Inscribed and signed, with two seals of the artist “Zhang Yuan,” “Daqian” Inscription reads,“the sixty-ninth year, gengshen, midsummer, Moye Jingshe, eighty-two year Old Man Yuan.” Housed in a modern gilt wood frame with linen matte and inner gold liner. “Contemplating upon Summer Mountains” was done in the summer of 1980, the sixty-ninth year of the Republic of China. It represented Zhang Daqian’s mature style of splashed-ink-and-color technique. In Zhang’s later years, due to his ailing eyesight and the limitations it imposed, the artist developed an abstract style reminiscent of the blue and green landscape of the Tang dynasty (618-906). However, Zhang did not totally abandon the gongbi (fine pen) style that dominated his early years. Rather, as this work demonstrated, a lucid structure still can be seen in the swirls of colors and pools of suffused textured ink, interspersed with fine details of pines, rocks, cottages, and sailboats. The velvety blue in the center and the turquoise green in the back almost had a tactile feel to it. The bold application of blue elucidating the basic pictorial form of the foreground mountain was on the same abstract level as an earlier work, “Approach of a Mountain Storm” from 1967, now in the collection of Chang Sing S. and Kuala Lumpur. Moye Jingshe, mentioned in the inscription, was Zhang Daqian’s residence in Taiwan from 1978 until his death in 1983. Zhang moved from California back to Taiwan in 1976. And in 1977, he bought some lands in Waishuangxi, close to the National Palace Museum. The residence was named Moye Jingshe (translated as “Abode of Illusion”). Moye is the Buddhist word for illusion and Jingshe a meditation hut. The painting could be a view the artist saw or imaged from his studio on a midsummer day. It also reminded us of Zhang’s final large work, “Panorama of Mount Lu,” painted between July 1981 to February 1983, now in the Collection of the Dafeng Tang, Taipei. Zhang never visited nor saw Mount Lu and thus the subject matter imbued him with maximum freedom and imagination. Even though the Zhang Daqian did not start working on the long scroll of Mount Lu (commissioned by Li Haitian) until late 1981, the preparation work actually started in 1980. It is possible that “Contemplating upon Summer Mountains” was one of the many variations of smaller sketches Zhang did before taking on the larger challenge. SIZE: 20-1/2″ x 39-1/2″. PROVENANCE: Property of a North American Collection. CONDITION: A paper crease in upper left corner, edges of the paper glued to a wood board, otherwise very good. 49160-1 (3,000-5,000) – Lot 4295
