Ms. Arden kept the second sitting example and hung it in her Fifth Avenue apartment. She sent the first sitting portrait to London where it hung in her management offices.

Please Note: There is some dispute among the family members as to whether this is by Harold Stoner, and thus, as it is just signed “Stoner” we cannot guarantee this work was by Harold Stoner.

HAROLD G. STONER (American, 1890-1971) ARCHITECT HAROLD STONER, ARCHITECT, LOOKING OUT OVER HIS BRIDGE CONCEPT FOR SAN FRANCISCO BAY.

Oil on canvas Unframed Signed and dated lower right “Stoner 1926” Note: Harold G. Stoner (1890-1971) was an American architect and artist who lived in San Francisco and worked in the early and mid-20th century and helped define some of the architectural style of the San Francisco area. After working for several architectural firms he settled into the firm of Lang Realty Company as their chief architect in 1921. He worked on many of the housing developments in many of the San Francisco neighborhoods including the Marina, Monterey Heights, Sherwood Forest and many others. Although most of Stoner’s work was involved in residential housing he did work on some commercial projects which became his most acclaimed work. These included the Tamalpais Theatre in San Anselmo, Sally Rand’s Nude Ranch at the Golden Gate International Exposition and Sutro’s Ice Rink. This painting shows an image of Stoner kneeling down and at his feet are architectural blueprints. He is overlooking a large bridge being completed over the San Francisco bay with the city’s skyline beyond.

REVOLUTIONARY WAR ERA LION POMMEL AMERICAN LIGHT HORSE CAVALRY SABER.

This is most unusual circa 1780 American made slotted guard sword with well-chased lion pommel, with most unusual grip made from strips of baleen. Norm Flayderman cataloged this sword in 1989, but noted the grip as being spiral carved horn which is not correct. Use of baleen will most likely denotes manufacture in the Northeast near the whaling industry. Sword measures 38-1/4″ overall with a 33″ single fullered American forged blade. Special Note: This item(s) contains plant or animal properties that may be covered by the Endangered Species Act (ESA). Please read the Conditions of Sale, section 15, for more information regarding the Endangered Species Act, and your responsibilities as a buyer. CONDITION: Very good overall.

EXTREMELY RARE REVOLUTIONARY WAR “UNITED STATES” BRANDED CHARLEVILLE MUSKET.

This is probably the only authentic and original Revolutionary War “United States” branded Model 1763 Charleville musket to ever come to public auction. On March 31, 1777, George Washington directed the Board of War that all Continental arms be stamped with “United States”. According to George D. Moller in his text American Military Shoulder Arms, Vol. I., 1993, this is the earliest identification mark on Continental muskets. This marking has been highly reproduced and faked over the years, but this example is guaranteed original and unaltered with excellent patina and completeness. Over the years, just a handful of armaments with this marking are known. “The vast majority of arms imported into the United States for the use of the American revolutionary forces were French. Well over 100,000 French muskets are known to have been imported…” SIZE: 59-1/2″ overall. CONDITION: Good overall, standard configuration with 44″ 69 caliber barrel. Metal dark and brown overall, with pitting. Several crack repairs to stock, including 9″ crack which extends from trigger guard to buttplate, through the brand, but markings still very good and discernible. Top jaw screw is an old replacement. Band springs lack locking buttons. 52040-1 (7,000-9,000) – Lot 2002

EXTREMELY RARE AND FINE ARCHIVE OF AMERICAN PATRIOT JOHN GLEN, Jr. WHICH INCLUDES HIS INSCRIBED REVOLUTIONARY WAR AMERICAN SILVER MOUNTED, FLINTLOCK OFFICER’S FUSIL.

The treasure in this archive is, perhaps, the finest known example of an American made fusil of the American Revolutionary War period. The maple stocked fusil has its original commercial flintlock marked “JOVER” and the 38 ½” 65 caliber smooth bore barrel has Birmingham proofs. All of the mountings are non-hallmarked silver with relief Rococo design and fine chiseled martial engraving. The ornate thumbplate has Glen’s initials in the 18th century style where “I’s” and “J’s” are interchangeable, “JGJr”. The sole of the buttplate is engraved in large block letters “JOHN GLEN Jr”. There is fine relief carving at the barrel tang. The overall architecture of the gun is superb. This fusil presents beautifully and was made for a man of means. It represents the finest achievement in mid 18th century American gun making. Col. John Glen Jr (1735-1828) was Quarter Master of the Continental Army of the Northern Department and was a close associate of George Washington, who on occasion stayed at the Glen Plantation in New York. Glen had prior service in the French and Indian Wars in various New York units from 1755. Archive also includes two documents: one bureaucratic signed by John Glen Sr October 21, 1745 and the second is a fine archivally framed document dated 1758, appointing John Glen Jnr as 2nd Lieutenant of the 3rd Company of Militia of Schenectady, signed by James Delancy, the British Lieutenant-Governor and Commander-in-Chief of the Province of New York. The chair, which is a typical New England mid-18th century splat back chair, was in the Glen home when Commander-in-Chief George Washington visited and stayed there in 1775 during the Revolutionary War and at other times according to provided research. General Washington could very well have sat in this chair and could have handled this wonderful fusil that no doubt was a prized possession. After the Revolutionary War, the area around the Glen home was renamed “Glen’s Falls, NY’ a name by which it is known today. The area was originally named Wing’s Falls, but Abraham Wing was not the ardent patriot as John Glen and John Glen was a patriot!

EXTREMELY RARE NEW HAMPSHIRE 1ST BATTALION MARKED REVOLUTIONARY WAR CHARLEVILLE MUSKET.

This is a fine example of a very rare Revolutionary War musket that are well chronicled in the literature. This Model 1768 musket with 44″ 69 caliber barrel was shipped on the French vessel “Mercure” in the spring of 1777. Each battalion of New Hampshire muskets were marked on the barrels with the letters “NH” joined at the intersecting leg followed by either “1B”, “2B”, or “3B” and then a sequential number from 1-672. These guns were stamped by silversmith John Ward Gilman of Exeter, NH. A receipt dated May 6, 1777 shows that he stamped a total of 2,016 muskets or 672 muskets per battalion. Of these 2016 muskets, a total of 47 are known today according to research by Michael R. Carroll in a 2009 article. This gun is properly marked on breech “NH 1B No.497”. The 1st New Hampshire was incorporated into George Washington’s Continental Army as the 5th Continental Regiment. This unit took part in most of the major battles of the Revolutionary Army, including Bunker Hill (prior to issue), Siege of Boston, Defense of Canada, Lake Champlain, Trenton, Princeton, Valley Forge, Saratoga, Monmouth, Iroquois Expedition of 1779 and Yorktown. This is among the rarest identified Revolutionary War longarm you will find SIZE: 59-1/2″ overall. CONDITION: Good overall. Stock is sound. Metal is brown/grey overall with pitting.

EXTREMELY RARE “WAYNE’S LEGION” REGULATION U.S. ARMY 1792-1796 SHOULDER BELT PLATE.

This is the first regulation American officer’s accoutrement plate authorized by government regulation. Die-struck of heavy brass with gold plate with American “frog-legged eagle” great seal above “USA”. The first known reference appears in the General Orders published June 26, 1795 “Oval breastplate on white shoulder belt, 3″ x 2-1/2″, ornamented with an eagle in gold or silver to match the buttons”. Major General “Mad” Anthony Wayne was the original commander of the Legion of the United States and this buckle has always been nicknamed in his honor. General Wayne accepted the surrender of all British forts in 1796 which were located illegally in the United States in violation of the Treaty of Paris which ended the Revolutionary War in 1783. The Legion was formed in June 1792. Recruited and raised in Pittsburgh, PA, the Legion was involved in protecting the American frontier, including the Siege of Ft. Jefferson, Siege of Ft. Recovery and the Battle of Fallen Timbers. The Legion built fortifications throughout the frontier, including Ft. Wayne which today retains it’s name honoring the Legion’s first General. Lewis and Clark were both members of the Legion and would likely have had same plates during their expedition mapping the Louisiana Purchase. An example of this plate was part of traveling bicentennial Lewis and Clark exhibit seen nationwide. PROVENANCE: The last example sold in major auction was from William Guthman Collection sale at Sotheby’s 12/1/2005 for $30,000. CONDITION: Very good overall, retaining most of its original plate, numerous small scratches, bend at top edge and other cosmetic blemishes. All in all, this is a beautiful example of a rare and popular American accoutrement plate. 52331-5 (15,000-20,000) – Lot 2005

SPECTACULAR & UNIQUE NANTUCKET PRESENTATION SWORD TO MEXICAN WAR HERO MAJOR MOSES BARNARD FOR “PLANTING THE 1ST AMERICAN FLAG ON PARAPET AT STORMING OF CHAPULTEPEC”, SEPTEMBER 13, 1847.

“The course of history plays out with little regard for the lives of men. Fate or ability can propel individuals to the forefront of fame and accomplishment, but rarely do the man and his deed become merged to create an image that is an icon for the ages. The raising of the flag on Iwo Jima is such an image – symbolic of the struggle and victory in the Pacific during WWII. In the same way, the plating of the American flag on the battlement of Chapultepec became symbolic of the U.S. victory in the Mexican War in 1847. The image of a brave officer leading his troops to victory was used as a frontispiece in U.S. histories, paintings, prints and even wallpaper. The Mexican War has faded into the past, as has the memory of the man who first planted the flag on the parapet during the Storming of Chapultepec and became the symbol for the entire war. Moses J. Barnard was born in 1819, the eleventh child of Cromwell and Sarah Barnard on the island of Nantucket, Mass. His grandmothers were from the famous Coffin and Joy island families. It is likely he was raised among Quakers and whaling captains. Little is known of his early life, but he joined the U.S. “Voltigeurs” in Pennsylvania on February 16, 1847, as a Captain.” This is most likely the only historic sword presented by the overwhelmingly pacifist Quaker population of Nantucket Island. Sword is an exquisite piece of workmanship retaining most of its original gold plate and brilliant blue and gold decorated blade. The presentation engraved on either side of scabbard reads: “A TESTIMONIAL, / FROM THE CITIZENS OF NANTUCKET, MASS. / OCT. 18, 1848” and “TO BREVET MAJOR MOSES BARNARD / OF THE REGIMENT OF VOLTIGEURS: / DISTINGUISHED FOR HIS GALLANTRY IN MEXICO / AND FOR PLANTING THE FIRST AMERICAN FLAG, THE COLORS OF HIS REGIMENT / ON THE PARAPET AT THE STORMING OF CHAPULTEPEC, / SEPT. 13, 1847” The large file of provenance and history accompanying this sword tells of the short-lived history (1847-1848) of the American Voltigeur Regiment who were elite skirmishers. Copies of the numerous images made of Captain Barnard planting the flag at the pivotal battle of the Mexican War can be viewed in the provenance link on our website. Captain Barnard was indeed a national hero known all over America at this time. The Castle of Chapultepec sits atop a 200ft hill defending the approach to Mexico City. The storming of Chapultepec consisted of hand-picked troops including the Voltigeurs and a detachment of Marines. The Marines participation was immortalized in the Marine Corps Hymn which refers to Chapultepec as “The Halls of Montezuma”. Storming of Chapultepec was a heroic, glorious, bloody battle with ladders toppled and thrown up again until the American forces reached the parapet, and in hand-to-hand combat drove the Mexicans back. By 9:30, after two hours of fighting, the flag of the Voltigeurs flew above the east wall. During the attack, the color bearer was killed and Captain Barnard seized the flag, scaled the parapet and brandished the colors under terrible fire, receiving two wounds. It is this moment of courage that became an iconic symbol. Bernard was personalize cited by General Winfield Scott as “the first to plant a regimental color” and brevetted a major for “Gallantry and Meritorious Conduct at the Battle of Chapultepec”. The American troops moved on to Mexico City, which surrendered the next day. Bernard stayed in Mexico City with occupation forces until August 31, 1848 and returned home. In his absence, his friends and neighbors on Nantucket learned of his exploits and were determined to recognize his bravery. On October 21, 1848, this notice appeared in the Nantucket papers, The Inquirer and The Weekly Mirror: SWORD PRESENTATION. An interesting ceremony, without precedence on this island, took place at the Athenaeum on Wednesday evening last. The close of the course of lectures delivered at the Athenaeum by Major M. J. BARNARD, late of the Voltigeurs, upon Mexico and the incidents of the late war, was selected by several of his friends as a proper time to present him a fitting token of their personal esteem and warm appreciation of the bravery displayed by him at Chapultepec and elsewhere. An elegant SWORD was deemed the most appropriate gift to be presented to the gallant soldier. SIZE: 36-1/2″ overall. PROVENANCE: Purchased directly from family of Barnard’s friends and descendants and in Simon Handleson’s collection ever since. Special Note: This item(s) contains plant or animal properties that may be covered by the Endangered Species Act (ESA).

FINE CIVIL WAR CDV ALBUM.

This bound album contains 41 Civil War CDVs of which all but three are soldiers. There is one beautiful young woman pictured who is possibly the owner of the album. The album is inscribed “Lilian Bates Hawley” in front. Most of the cards are of officers and general officers, including a fine image of a full standing General David Birney wearing his sword. Birney was a brigade commander in Philip Kearny’s division. When Kearny was killed, Birney took over command of his division. Based on several photos of officers wearing Kearny Crosses, it is possible that this album may be associated with units in that division. Quick research of some of the named soldiers show six surgeons: Walter B. Morrison, 3rd Michigan Infantry; John Howe, 1st New York Infantry; H. F. L. Lyster, 5th Michigan Infantry; Edwin Miles, 5th Michigan Infantry; John Robinson, 38th New York Infantry. One other surgeon identified is Edward Donnelly who was in four different regiments and was wounded in action at Mechanicsville, confined at Libby Prison, was captured at 2nd Battle of Bull Run and at the Battle of the Wilderness and was allowed to operate on wounded Union soldiers. Donnelly had an interesting history; being an Irish immigrant who arrived in Philadelphia after his father, who was an officer in the British East India Company, was killed in Bengal. Donnelly was a renowned doctor prior to the war and offered his services as soon as the war began. Donnelly was among the first surgeons to prepare pathology slides from his Civil War patients. I’m sure there are other interesting stories to be told among these cards which appear to be overall fine original condition. CONDITION: Album is good overall, though pages are shaken and several are loose. Full leather binding, shows scuffing, but retains gilt decoration and functional brass clasps. CDVs examined are overall very good and are by numerous photographers. A few examined have rounded top corners and minor cosmetic defects. 52222-2 (3,000-5,000) – Lot 2017

OUTSTANDING MAINE HISTORICAL LOT INCLUDING PRESENTATION SWORD AND MEMORABILIA TO CAPTAIN JAMES LIBBY OF THE FIRST MAINE SHARPSHOOTERS, A SURVIVOR OF THE GETTYSBURG BATTLE.

NSN. This group consists of two Civil War officer swords and a post-war photograph and copies of letters Libby wrote home from the war. First sword is a beautiful US staff and field officers sword with an eagle head quillon and a high grade spiral fluted metal grip. The sword has an inscription which reads, “presented to Lieut. J. W. Libby by Co. E, First ME SS December 5, 1864”. The other sword is an imported non regulation iron hilted officers sword. Both swords as other articles originally came from the descendants of Captain Libby. There is a sketch of James Libby’s life written by his grandson E. Carl Libby which tells of his birth in 1840 in Leeds, Maine, his life on the farm, his schooling in one room schoolhouse and his later education at Monmouth Academy. When the war began in 1861 James Libby was entering his final year at Monmouth Academy. On August 6, 1861 James Libby left school and enlisted as a private in Company K, 7th Regiment Maine Volunteers. Several family letters tell of his life in the 7th. At the battle of Antietam over half of the 7th Maine men engaged where killed, wounded or missing. The unit was so reduced in numbers it was sent home in October of 1862 to recoup. Company K of which Libby was a part rejoined the war in January 1863 and were engaged at the Battle of Fredricksburg May 3, 1863 with a loss of 12 killed, 49 wounded and 39 missing. 7th Maine had heavy causality almost everywhere they fought. At Gettysburg the 7th Maine and Libby had position on Wolf Hill where the 7th Maine monument stands between two rock walls today. Only two men of the 7th Maine died from wounds from the battle of Gettysburg and are buried at the National Cemetery at Gettysburg along with 138 other men from Maine regiments. A patriotic letter to his sister written by Libby on August 16, just over a month after Gettysburg when he and the 7th were camped in Warrenton Springs, VA states, “Our country must be saved and now is the time to do it…” James Libby would serve his three years, be discharged and reenlist as a Veteran Volunteer. He would become a second lieutenant in November 1864 in the 1st Maine Sharp Shooters and then be promoted to Captain in Company K in the 14th Maine infantry in his last command. There is an interesting archive of research by Libby’s grandson that accompanies this lot including the listing of family members who own the copied letters and a copy of a signed CDV of Lieutenant Libby wearing the wonderful presentation sword that is the centerpiece of this lot. CONDITION: Staff and field officers sword is fine overall with 32″ blade with 16″ etched patriotic panels on both sides retaining 90%+ orig frosted details.

ARCHIVE OF CALIFORNIA PIONEER MAJOR GEORGE PUTNAM, INCLUDING HIS ABRAHAM LINCOLN SIGNED MILITARY COMMISSION.

Archive consists of a japanned Paymaster’s box with George Putnam’s name in gold paint, several documents including Ft. Walla Walla, Washington Territory, August 1864 dated document signed by Putnam. There is also a 20″ x 17″ framed military commission signed by President Abraham Lincoln and Edwin Stanton, Secretary of War, February 26, 1864. Major George A. Putnam (1825-1894) was a California pioneer. George was a farm boy where he grew up in Fitchburg, Mass. By the age of 15, he “started out to make his own way in the world” after the death of his father. After working in Boston for almost ten years, the news of the gold strike in California reached his ears, and his course was set. He traveled via Cape Horn and arrived in San Francisco July 5, 1849. He was one of the minority of gold miners who were quite successful in panning for gold (on the Yuba River). He worked as a Deputy Sheriff in Sacramento (1857-1863).

RARE IDENTIFIED CONFEDERATE SLOUCH HAT OF BRISCOE B. RANSON, COMPANY B 12TH VIRGINIA CAV, ROSSER’S BRIGADE, WADE HAMPTON’S CORPS, JEB STUART’S CAVALRY CSA WITH SABER SLASH MARK AND BLOOD STAINING FROM WOUND AT BRANDY STATION.

This is an iconic and well known identified Confederate slouch with a long collection history. Mildred Remsburg was an early collector of Civil War memorabilia and had a small museum in Sharpsburg, MD behind her general line antique shop. Hat was displayed with top of a 19th century “mustard plaster” box on which is written: “Hat – B. B. Ranson Co. B, 12th Va. Cav. Rosser’s Brigade (J.E.B. Stuart’s cavalry) Hampton’s Corps C.S.A. – was wearing when he was sabered June 9th 1863, in Battle of Brandy Station”. Hat is classic imported slouch hat with a indiscernible makers mark which is now only seen with black light (see photo). Slouch hats were among the most popular of headgear during the Civil War. These hats which could be easily folded and carried, saw continued use after the war and few identified ones are known, especially Confederate. Amazingly, slouch hat shows a long 2″ saber slash where Ranson was wounded June 9th, 1863 at the Battle of Brandy Station. Blood is evident with UV light where pooled in sweatband beneath saber mark. Ranson was captured following his wounding, but was exchanged 3 weeks later where he rejoined his unit and was finally paroled April 21, 1865. Pvt. Briscoe B. “Buck” Ranson (1844-1934) served with both the 12th Virginia Cavalry and 43rd Virginia Cavalry. When Briscoe entered service he was in school. After the war, he returned to school as a student in the medical department at the University of Virginia and later at the University of Maryland where he graduated with a degree of Doctor of Medicine in 1869. He practiced medicine at Harper’s Ferry for 30 years. He is buried in Charlestown, Jefferson Country, West Virginia. Hat is accompanied by file of collection history with old receipts, along with Ranson’s war record. PROVENANCE: Remsburg Museum, Sharpsburg, MD; George Gorman, about 1970; Bill Turner Collection; John Graham Collection, Alexandria, VA; Michael Cunningham Collection 1980; Jim Frasca Collection; Josh Landish Collection, Las Vegas, NV, 1992; The Estate of Morris Racker. CONDITION: Hat is sound and stable. Sweatband has been re-sewn in areas and original silk lining is detached but in place. Blood staining is quite evident with UV light, as is the maker’s mark which is almost invisible with regular light. There are several holes and reductions as typically seen on this pattern from the frequent folding when used. Hat band is complete as is the original brown sewn edging. Hat is soiled overall. The original sign used in museum with penciled inscription is soiled but otherwise solid and all text is discernible. 51956-56 (6,000-8,000) – Lot 2022

FINE POSSIBLY SOUTHERN HALF-STOCK PERCUSSION CONVERSION LONG RIFLE.

This is a most unusual gun with many North Carolina features that measures 54″ overall with a 37″ barrel with a patented percussion breech utilized after conversion from flintlock. Gun has numerous silver inlays including lock escutcheon made in shape of an eagle. Five small ivory insets are also found. Gun is checkered at the wrist and has relief carving on buttstock and behind tang. Bill Ivey in his exemplary text North Carolina School of Long Rifles 1765-1865 on page 68 attributes a gun to Craft Jackson which has a most unusual and unique side-hinged patchbox lid also seen here. This gun is much more ornate then the attributed gun, and this one is signed in a cartouche at breech “C.J” and a silver plaque on barrel has most unusual inscription “Lined Stub & Twisted / JACKSON”. Cataloger has no idea what this inscription means, regardless this is a very interesting gun that was originally longer and probably full stock but now shortened (stubbed as plaque suggests?). Special Note: This item(s) contains plant or animal properties that may be covered by the Endangered Species Act (ESA). Please read the Conditions of Sale, section 15, for more information regarding the Endangered Species Act, and your responsibilities as a buyer. CONDITION: Good to very good overall, missing several silver inlays including three 2″ silver eagles. Bore appears reamed to 44 cal. smooth bore, but appears to have hints of residual rifling.

His desk has panoply of arms carved along with relief carved gunboat on the visible edge. Large gelatin image of Illinois National Guard has several large cracks including upper right hand corner being broken off and repaired, scuffed and rounded corners.

RARE EARLY OLD TOWN CANOE COMPANY DISPLAY SAMPLE, CIRCA 1912-1915.

Limited number of Old Town Canoe samples were ever made and only a very small number of them were this earlier version. A similar example from this same time period was donated to the Smithsonian Institute by the Old Town Canoe Co. This is the earliest salesman model sample and they can be identified by the wording on the side which states; “Genuine Old Town Canoe Co. Canoes”. Later, by the 1920’s, the wording on the sides of the salesman sample canoes read, “Old Town Canoes”. Even later than that, the later samples stated simply, “Old Town” and is printed in script form. This example is generally believed to have been produced between 1912 and 1915. The open gunnel construction on this canoe is the style which began to appear in 1908 so it certainly is not any earlier than that. The canoe had originally been distributed to the Ray Ellis Bicycle Company in Wichita, Kansas. This sample canoe is accompanied by two appropriate period canoe paddles which are probably also Old Town. SIZE: 48″ long. CONDITION: This is an exceedingly rare model. The lettering on one side “Old Town Canoe Company” is strong and bright, the other side is faded; (obviously it had been hanging in a store window for some time). Nearly all of the paint is original, the signage on the side of the canoe are original. The oval decals on the end, we are told, were replaced at some time. We were told that some restoration had been down to the thwat and seats although if it was, it was done in an expert manner as it is undetectable. A very rare canoe and in even rarer to find condition. 52384-1 (17,500-22,500) – Lot 2214

RARE E.M. WHITE CANOE COMPANY SAMPLE CANOE.

This canoe dates to around the 1920’s and is a 52″ model. Edwin White of Maine was one of America’s earliest builders of wooden canoes. He was also an early builder of wooden boats and began making his canoes in the late 1880’s. This is obviously a White Canoe and exhibits the deck cut-out in the exact shape that Edwin White used. He was in direct competition with the famous Old Town Canoe Company in Old Town, Maine, who eventually bought the White Company out in the 20th century. According to scholars, there are only a couple documented White Canoe samples known so this is exceedingly rare. This canoe is fitted with two appropriate paddles of the period which may be Old Town paddles? One looks to be Birdseye Maple. SIZE: 52″ l. CONDITION: With the exception of some scattered paint flecking, the canoe is in outstanding condition and most certainly a beautiful and rare example. 52384-2 (7,000-9,500) – Lot 2215

TWO RARE PICTORIAL SAMPLERS BY MARY ANN HANDSAKER.

Circa 1837/8. The two samplers memorializing the birth and premature death of her son, Thomas Handsaker. The first dated February 2 1837 identifying Thomas Handsaker, and depicting a manor house flanked by stylized trees and birds, the figure of young child with dog in foreground within a border of green and cream floral trellis work. The whole woven on linen foundation. The second sampler woven in identical style and manner, dated August 24th, 1838 and signed “Mary Ann Handsaker”. The example woven with a stylized flowering tree flanked by birds, smaller flowering shrubs and a basket filled with fruit and small dogs within an identical border to the first, also woven on linen. **Note: It is our belief that the two samplers, woven by Mary Ann Handsaker, illustrate the brief story of her son, Thomas Handsaker, who we surmise died August 24, 1838, 17 months after his birth. Below is the text of these examples: 1) Thomas Handshaker was Born February th 2. Lord what his life tis like a flower That blossoms and is gone We see it flourish for an hour With all its beauty on. But death comes like a wintry day And cuts the pretty flower away. See the littel Darling Boy A father’s Hope A mother’s Joy May The Sins Sad ruin Flee And Subject To his parents Be. Life is short death is sure. 2) And shall I say its yet too soon To Seek for heaven or think of death A flower may fade before tis noon And I this day resign my breath. Our days on the Earth are but a shadow And there is no abiding Aug 24th 1838 Mary Ann Handsaker. Each housed in a pine frame with gilt surround. SIZE: Sight: 13-1/2″ x 12-3/4″.

FINE AMERICAN CARVED OAK TALL CASE CLOCK WITH MARKED TIFFANY & CO. DIAL.

American carved oak tall case clock (1886-1909). Carved case by Tobey Furniture Co. of Chicago. 1) The brass and silvered dial marked “Tiffany & Co” beneath the chapter ring. The brass eight day movement, time and strike, striking on a coil driven by two weights. A moon phase dial in the arch. We believe that the movement may very well be an unmarked example manufactured by J.J. Elliot Co. Ltd. of London. 2) Many cases of this style and model were fitted with Elliot movements including the last example that we offered and sold in our Fine Art and Antiques Auction of February 2014, Lot 3091. The quarter sawn oak case is extensively carved, the bonnet having grotesque mask within the carved crest, a three dimensional bagpiper and horn player flanking bonnet door. The bonnet joined to case throat carved with lion heads within a foliate border above the molded panel door carved with C-scrolled volutes above a grotesque mask over trailing bellflower and foliate carved leaftips. The door flanked by engaged tapering square columns or pilasters carved with fan and shell cartouches on molded carved bases. The throat joined to box base with concave molding. The lower panel carved in high relief depicting a tavern scene with three figures gambling at a table flanked by conforming pilasters headed by carved lions heads. The whole on a floral dentil molded carved plinth raised on compressed ring-turned ball feet. 1) Similar case models were being offered by Tobey Furniture Co. in 1900. 2) JJ Elliot was a clock craftsman of the late 19th century. He was a great innovator, interested in creating high quality clocks that were interesting to listen to. In 1865 JJ Elliott began his clock making apprenticeship with “Bateman” of Smithfield, London. By 1882, Elliott was established as a “manufacturer of fine quality clocks”. In 1909 Elliot merged with Grimshaw Baxter. “Tobey Furniture Co. of Chicago” was founded in 1856 and was a leader in the marketplace for handmade carved furniture. In 1905 “Toby Furniture Co. of Chicago” opened a showroom in New York on West 32nd street, near 5th Avenue. This offered “Tobey Handmade Furniture” a market on the east coast. Having this new location probably is responsible for the collaboration between Tobey Furniture Co. and Tiffany & Co. A nearly identical clock reproduced from the Toby Catalog and referred to as a “Flemish” clock is illustrated in Duy Ly, Longcase Clocks and Standing Regulators, Part 1, Machine Made Clocks p. 422, fig. 979. SIZE: 8′ h x 26-1/2″ w x 16-1/2″ d. PROVENANCE: From a central Connecticut collection. CONDITION: Superior original condition. Original dark finish. Very fine old patina. Movement clean and operable.
