Stoneware Pepperpot Sells For $47,200 At Conestoga/Hess Auction Group Catalog Sale By Karl Pass

onestoga Auction Company, a division of the Hess Auction Group owned by John M. Hess Auction Service of Manheim, Pa., held a 630-lot winter catalog sale on Feb. 21 at their recently renovated facility. The Graystone Road building across the street from Root’s Market outside of Manheim, has been greatly enhanced under Hess’ ownership. Wooden barn siding has been artfully installed on the walls and surrounding the auction podium, modern ceiling lights have replaced the dated drop ceiling panels and old lighting system, and the dated tile floor has been removed. The office and food area were also both completely remodeled and modernized. To the surprise of everyone in the salesroom, especially the consignors, this 3.75-inch-high domed top salt glazed stoneware pepperpot with incised decoration and signed on the base “F.H. Cowden, Hr. (Harrisburg), Oct. 1861” sold to a collector in the salesroom for $47,200. It was underbid by a phone bidder.

The result is a much cleaner, better lit, and professional appearing facility. The company held a catered reception on Feb. 19, the Thursday afternoon prior to the sale, to formally introduce the public to the remodeled salesroom and to serve as a preview for their first official catalog sale under the joint banner of the Hess Auction Group. The organization formed this past November when John M. Hess a c q u i r e d Conestoga A u c t i o n Company. Jeff and Doris DeHart have stayed on and will assist in catalog sales for the

near future. Longtime Conestoga auctioneer Doug Ebersole is no longer calling sales for the company but is now working for Witman Auctioneers, also of Manheim. The deal did, however, become a homecoming of sorts for auctioneer Phil Nissley of John M. Hess Auction Service, as he had previously worked at Conestoga for many years prior to becoming a partner at John M. Hess. The Saturday auction grossed $241,951 (including the 18 percent buyer’s premium). There were 188 in-house registered bidders and 651 online registered bidders through the Live Auctioneers platform. Carnival glass was sold first, followed by about 75 lots of assorted glassware, some local in interest. A Lititz Spring straight rye whiskey enamel bottle with four shot glasses, each etched “John C. Hurting, Lititz, PA” sold for $884. More local advertising included six similar acid-etched shot glasses from Rohrer’s in Lancaster and John C. Hurting in Lititz. The group sold for $154. Various English china followed. A Gaudy Dutch “urn” pattern toddy plate in good condition realized $884. A bulbous form mochaware cream pitcher in seaweed pattern on yellow ground with brown banding and some professional restoration sold for $1,003. The first of two groupings of furniture were sold around noon as snow began to fall (only about a inch or two total came down throughout the afternoon). A fine York County, Pa., two-piece boldly grain

paint-decorated corner cupboard attributed to John Rupp (1809-99) in good condition sold to a collector in the salesroom for $9,440. A New England Queen Anne tiger maple bonnet top highboy with original hardware cataloged as being in good (Continued on page 2)

The Hess Auction Group is slated to have a busy 2015. They are holding an on-site sale at Taylor Mansion, the former residence of Barbara and the late Lester Breininger on Saturday, March 21, and they are selling the vast personal collection and inventory belonging to the late Harry B. Hartman. They will sell the Hartman collection in a series of three two-day sales. Hartman was an instrumental figure in the Pennsylvania antiquing community for over 50 years. Known for his impeccable taste and eye for

design, the interior decorator and antiques dealer was revered by many and had a top notch reputation for both honesty and quality, the former trait especially vital in the diehard antiques industry. Hartman was a fixture in the right front row at every major Conestoga sale and was good friends with the late Walter L. (Larry) Bomberger Jr., who used to own the company, so it was not a major surprise when Hartman’s business partner, Oliver Overlander II, consigned the estate to the company. Overlander and his wife,

Judith, reside in Marietta, Pa., and lived next door to Hartman. Jeff DeHart was a key figure in orchestrating how the collection will be handled. “What Oliver and I did at the house was tag one third of a category for each of the three sales,” said DeHart. “Everything will be sold, except there were a couple things Harry gave to Oliver prior to his passing. The entire contents of the shop and house will make up about 3,000 lots.” The schedule is to hold a twoday sale on Friday and Saturday,

May 15 and 16; another on Friday and Saturday, Aug. 14 and 15; and another on Friday and Saturday, Nov. 20 and 21. “We want each one to be exciting. That is why we split each group in thirds. For example, we tagged 150 lots of stoneware, so roughly 50 will be sold in each sale,” said DeHart. “We are very excited,” stated Phil Nissley. They have every reason to be. The estate represents the most important one to come to the auction house in 15 years, since the landmark Clyde and Betty Youtz estate sales. “We did

those in four single-day sales,” said DeHart. The collection was sold over two years. The first sale was April 1, 2000, and it is still considered by many to have represented a high water mark for the country Americana market. It was the strongest of the four in terms of overall material, and the salesroom just barely supported the masses in attendance. Record prices were paid for an array of items. For regional followers of the Americana field, expect a major shotin-the-arm during the series of sales for the late Hartman.

Two Rare Cézanne Sketches Have Been Discovered On The Backs Of Watercolors At The Barnes Foundation conservation). Brown paper is very acidic, and they needed acid-free paper.” Thus, in January 2014, the watercolors were sent, along with 20 other works, to the Conservation Center for Art and Historic Artifacts in Philadelphia. About a month later, Buckley received an email from the center’s director of conservation, which read: “You might be interested to know we found something.” And what they had found, once the brown paper layer was carefully removed from “Chaîne de l’Étoile Mountains,” was that Cézanne had started the sketch of a group of trees, carefully delineated with pencil and highlighted with watercolor. Meanwhile, on the back of “Trees,” conservators discovered a detailed pencil drawing depicting houses and a range of mountains. This is not the first time that officials at Barnes have found drawings on the back of Cézanne’s works. Previously, the quick sketch of a bowler Barbara Buckley, Barnes Foundation conservation director hat had been found on the (left), and Martha Lucy, former curator at the foundation back of the drawing “The (right), view the newly discovered works by Cézanne.

recent finds. According to Barnes, only 15 unknown drawings by Cézanne have emerged in the last 30 years. Buckley and Martha Lucy, a former curator at the foundation, believe that Albert Barnes was completely unaware he had acquired four Cézannes for the price of two when he bought the watercolors from Leo Stein in Paris around 1921. There are no mentions of the sketches on the backs of the watercolors in any of their correspondence at the time of the purchase, nor in any other documents held in the foundation’s archives. They were not always a secret feature, however, since both watercolors have markings from a Paris dealer, suggesting that he concealed the sketched backs with the brown paper before selling them to Stein. The pieces will be displayed in double-sided frames at the Barnes Foundation from Friday, April 10, for eight weeks. For more information, visit www.barnesfoundation.org.

The breakthrough came after the team took down “Chaîne de l’Étoile Mountains” (1885-86) and “Trees” (circa 1900) to send them to conservationists. “We’ve had (the watercolors) out of the frame before,” said Barbara Buckley, the foundation’s senior director of conservation and chief painting conservator. “But the backs were covered with brown paper.

(through their analysis of listening patterns) target our advertising to 50-year-old educated women and be assured of hitting them with our message nearly 100 percent of the time. It begins when, as a listener on Pandora, you “build your radio station” of favorite songs. While you are deciding if you like easy jazz or heavy metal, Pandora is building a profile about you that reveals your age, gender and lots more. As a small advertiser, I can then target each profiled demographic with our message. I know that many people have real anxieties about this kind of data tracking and see it as an invasion of privacy. Let me say that I am not here

to get into that debate. The reality is that these practices are constantly going and a wide range of Internet providers are generating these profiles. For the antiques trade, it is a way to begin to target your advertising to specific audiences. So let’s say that you are having an auction of vintage GI Joes. You can put an advertisement out there that is targeted to 45- to 55year-old men living within 100 miles of the auction. You are buying, quite literally, the market share for that demographic. What is even cooler, however, is that you will then get generated reports showing exactly how many people saw your ad and clicked through. This

handily trumps the print/radio/TV advertisements where you have no idea if anyone saw it. By the way, I know that many of you are already thinking, “Antique collectors don’t listen to Pandora or follow the Internet.” Interestingly, the facts don’t support that statement. The highest daytime users of the Internet right now are retirees. Why? Because they have the time to spend online as opposed to folks who are working and have limited access to personal Internet surfing during the daytime. So, as you are starting to think about the Internet, do a little exploring. Embrace the future while you try to sell the past!

have a large disposable income. While we are looking at other audiences, it is clear that we need to target this group, as they are our current bread and butter. So how do we reach these folks in a way that is cost-effective for a nonprofit? For us, it was using Pandora to reach them. Pandora is the Internet radio station now standard on most new cars and TVs, which is rapidly becoming the norm for how many people listen to music, particularly at work. For our museum, Pandora offers us incredible opportunities to send our message specifically to the audience that we want to attract. When I talk to our sales representative, she can

In my last column, we talked about the changes in the antiques world thanks to the Internet. This week, I want to talk about the broader impact the Internet has had on the antiques trade. Over the last decade, we have watched huge changes in how marketing occurs. In the old days, if you had the money, you would saturate the airwaves and print media with your ads. You would buy

time on all the radio and TV stations, plus ads in the newspapers. This would have meant that you “captured the entire market.” Today, as people have nearly unlimited access to a wide range of varied media outlets, “buying the marketplace” is not financially possible. The flip side to that is that the new technologies allow small businesses to target and advertise to very distinct segments of the market. Let me give you an example. Here at the Millicent Rogers Museum, we recently finished a year-long look at the demographics of our visitors. Not surprisingly, our current audience consists of older middle-age women who are highly educated and

for $49,381, and the screen print-on-paper “Laugh Now (2004)” sold for $30,388. On the other end of the scale the screen print-on-paper “Silver Flag (2006)” sold for a relatively low $5,317. Work sold at the auction focused on Banksy’s early career dating from 2002-07. The auction’s high results were reportedly driven by the important provenance of the Lazarides collection. Lazarides has been widely credited not only for the success of Banksy, but also for spearheading the growth of the street art movement in recent years. It is reported Lazarides met Banksy at a photo shoot and used to deal his work out of the trunk of his car. Each of the works in the auction had been certified by Pest Control, the artist’s official authentication body,

On Jan. 28, Bonhams in London auctioned a collection of 30 prints, two sculptures, and a stencil-on-canvas belonging to Banksy’s first gallerist and agent Steve Lazarides. Thirty of the 33 artworks were sold, reaching a combined sales total of $691,113. Most lots achieved prices above their high estimates. “Banksy” is a British guerrilla graffiti artist whose identity is not known. Work assigned to this anonymous individual is extremely popular in the contemporary art marketplace. It is believed that Banksy was born in Bristol, England, circa 1974. The top seller of the sale was the stencil-on-canvas “Precision Bombing (2000),” which sold for $60,000. The screen print and spray paint-on-card “Rude Copper (2002)” sold

Despite high hopes, over seven years Liberty lost $12 million dollars. Finally, in 1931, it was sold to controversial publisher Bernarr Macfadden. MacFadden could best be described as “mercurial”. In 1932, for instance, he stumped for the election of Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR); nearly 20 Liberty articles trumpeted Roosevelt’s talents. When FDR did make it to the White House, Macfadden found his policies unpalatable. By 1936, the publisher was touting himself as a presidential contender. Regardless of Macfadden’s eccentricities, under his leadership Liberty flourished. Here’s a sampling of what awaited readers in the June 22, 1940 issue: “Upstairs and Down in Hitler’s House”; “Do Men Make Women’s Hats in Self-Defense?”; “Women Spies in Norway”; “The New Mystery of Charlie Chaplin”; The “Flying Angel Of Mercy” A knockout of a cover by cover honored Army nurses, James Stuart. The Liberty Feb. and “Winston Churchill’s American Mother.” Sept. 22, 1945. 11, 1939, issue. Heading things up was Macfadden’s editorial, “The Hell That War Brings,” which took jabs at Roosevelt’s war preparations: “Fifty thousand airplanes, which the President BASEBALL COLLECTIBLES! recommends, will be helpful, For over 30 years no one has consistently helped more sellers realize more money for but one hundred thousand their quality BASEBALL MATERIAL than Robert Edward Auctions.

The Plains Indians:

PUBLIC AUCTION

“Artists Of Earth And Sky”

SATURDAY , MARCH 21 - 9 A.M.

Upcoming Exhibition To Offer In-Depth View Of Artistic Masterworks The beauty, power and spiritual resonance of Plains Indian art will be on view soon in New York City in a major exhibition, which first opened in April of 2014 in Paris. The show then traveled to Kansas City, Mo., before arriving in the Northeast. “The Plains Indians: Artists of Earth and Sky” unites Plains Indian masterworks found in European and North American collections, from pre-contact to contemporary, ranging from a 2,000-year-old Human Effigy stone pipe to 18th-century painted robes and a 2011 beaded

adaptation of designer shoes. Works of art collected centuries ago by French traders and travelers can be seen together with those acquired by Lewis and Clark on their famous expedition of 1804-06, along with objects from the early reservation era and contemporary works based in traditional forms and ideas.

FOOLED BY FAKES Counterfeit Guitars counterfeit instruments of all types are definitely out there in a big way, and they can impact musicians, collectors, and resellers alike. Part of the problem is that the issue of counterfeit instruments hasn’t received a lot of public attention, which leaves unsuspecting buyers at higher risk. Guitars are a huge target, including major brand names like Yamaha, Martin, and Fender. Gibson, one of the biggest and most well-known guitar makers, is one of the leaders in the battle against fake guitars. Gibson’s website has excellent detailed specifications about both their contemporary and historic guitars, organized by model to help buyers recognize fakes (www2.gibson.com/Gibson.a spx). Fender’s website also gives specs on their models (www.fender.com). No matter what make guitar you’re interested in, always check the company website for specifications, and if you still have questions, there are plenty of experts willing to help on guitar forums (see reference section at the end). A lot of cheaply made

fakes are pouring in from China (two of the biggest Chinese companies peddling counterfeits of guitars and other musical instruments are Musoland and Paylessguitar) and while some are being sold in online auctions or at flea markets, others are unknowingly sold in music shops that carry used instruments. Some of these underground operations actually have their own websites, some of which offer to custom-make any guitar a buyer would like. Of course, they’re still cheaply made and completely illegal. One of the best ways to recognize the difference between a counterfeit guitar and a real one is to become familiar with the sound and feel of an authentic model through handling and playing one. One savvy teenager was able to bring to justice the fraudster

wouldn’t know what every different make and model of guitar should play and feel like, and it doesn’t help that these counterfeiters are getting better at their trade. But there are a number of things anyone can look for to help weed out potential fakes and counterfeits. Guitars made by wellknown makers are crafted

who bilked him out of a thousand dollars, his entire savings. He’d played Les Paul guitars in music shops, so he was relatively familiar with them. After he’d taken possession of a guitar that had been advertised online as a Gibson Les Paul, he noticed that something was amiss and he took action. Some online research about fake Gibson guitars made him realize he’d been duped by the online seller and had actually bought a cheap Chinese knockoff. He called the police, and eventually the guilty party was arrested and charged with two felony counts. Of course, many resellers aren’t musicians and

with high standards and particular specifications. Cracks and oxidation in new guitars wouldn’t happen on a new guitar from a good name brand, so if you see either of them, you’re probably looking at a cheap counterfeit guitar. Both oxidation and cracks have been spotted on some Chinese imports. (Continued on page 19)

There was a story that broke in 2014 about a band from Texas that bought cheaply-made Chinese guitars, then slapped counterfeit high-end labels on them so they could sell the guitars for thousands of dollars. This got me wondering whether that was something of an anomaly or if counterfeit musical instruments are a bigger problem. We’ve all heard of counterfeit Stradivarius violins, but what about other instruments? So I did a little investigating, and it turns out that

In the early 1880s, at a time ruled by cast iron, Ernst Paul Lehmann revolutionized the toy world in Brandenburg, Germany, by producing wonderful and imaginative mechanical playthings out of tin, a material that hadn’t been used as extensively for toys until then. As the new century replaced the previous one, the company began to see great success and was recognized as an innovator in the field. In fact, one of Lehmann’s advances was the patenting of the locking mechanism for clockwork motors, a component still used to this day. Using tin was an innovation for a number of reasons, especially when compared to the somewhat cumbersome iron toys of most other makers. Besides being less expensive to produce, it meant a lighter and easier to handle item than their iron counterparts. It also allowed for detailed and brightly colored lithographing of the tin toys, which wasn’t possible with

emblazoned with Lehmann’s graphic and recognizable trademark monogram logo, making identification very simple, a feature that separates them from most other antiques and collectibles. Because of their bright lithography, great mechanics, and often entertaining premises, Lehmann’s broad appeal went beyond that of cast iron toys, which were essentially marketed only to young boys. Lehmann made a concerted effort to make toys that girls would want too and were extremely successful. Some of the fun features that appealed to yesterday’s children as much as today’s collectors include an amphibious car that would traverse both the bathtub and living room floor with ease, a driver on his tricycle pulling a nervous flailing bride on her way to the church, a very whimsical toy of a rabbit standing on an egg with backpack being pulled by a rooster, and a well-to-do couple walking their pug down a city street. With the passing of Ernst Lehmann in 1934, the company continued to operate under Lehmann’s cousin Johannes Richter, even through the metal shortages of World War II. But sadly, it was the beginning of the end. After the war, with the split into West and East Germany, Brandenburg, being part of the latter, fell under control of the Soviet occupation, and the Lehmann company went with it. In 1948,

Shortly thereafter, Richter escaped to Nuremberg in West Germany and the family built a new factory under the Lehmann name in 1959 outside Nuremberg. They carried on for some time, but ultimately, the popularity of tin toys decreased, and the new company shifted its focus to plastic toys, although continuing some of their more popular

Winter Fun By Bob Dissinger

Boy and girl, “Out for a Tramp.” Published by Valentine & Sons, Montreal and Toronto. Printed in Great Britain. A couple ice skating. A generic greeting. No information. Two young lads playing around a snowman. Printed by H.H. of Vienna. Posted in Belgium on 12/31/1913.

Activities such as throwing snowballs and building snowmen, snow forts and igloos are almost as old as snow and ice itself. Getting around on snow and ice necessitated the invention of snowshoes, ice skates, and skis, etc. Then came sleds (patent for Flexible Flyer applied for in 1889), sleighs, bobsleds, toboggans, and

animal-drawn (dog or horse) units. As technology improves, the maneuverability on snow improves. I have selected some postcards from my own collection - or if you will, accumulation - showing examples of various winter A trio of tobogganers. Published by Dexter Press, fun activities. I hope you West Nyack, N.Y. enjoy them, and I hope they will stimulate some wonderful Rib Mountain winter scenes. Wausau, old memories of childhood. Wisconsin. Published by Curteich - Chicago.

Monthly Display Showcases Hats And Handbags At The Grist Mill Antiques Center From the Victorian era until the mid1960s, fashion accessories were an important marker of a woman’s status in life. Having a well-coordinated outfit was a necessity for women of means or even one who aspired to a better social position. So selecting the right hat, handbag, gloves, and jewelry was essential in making a statement to other women interacted with, and it spoke more powerfully than any words. While worn initially for utilitarian purposes (to be protected from the elements), hats quickly became a fashion must-have as women began donning larger and more ornate versions. In the 1920s, when fashion took a radical turn into a more casual style, cloche hats became the rage and a perfect accessory when paired with long gloves, rolled down stockings, and a beaded bag and dress. When war broke out in the late 1930s and everyone was doing what they could to contribute to victory, women’s accessories took a decidedly austere turn, but even scaled down, hats still managed to take center stage in a woman’s outfit with feathers, netting, and even the occasional sparkle. The trend to accessorize seemed to gain more steam in the late ’50s and early ’60s when Doris Day was never seen without a matching hat and handbag for every outfit she wore in her films, and Audrey Hepburn became the image of classic beauty to which every woman aspired when sporting her iconic wide-brimmed hat and long black gloves in “Breakfast at Tiffany’s.” When John and Jacqueline Kennedy burst onto the political scene, no woman in America would be seen without a pillbox hat and white gloves when out on the town. These moments not only influenced women’s fashion, but they also reflected the sentiment of the day, that being someone special meant wearing something special. During the month of March, the Grist Mill Antiques Center in Pemberton, N.J., is

Not everyone likes winter...the snow, the ice, the cold...especially when it seems it will never come to an end. But those who really like the cold components of winter go all out to have a great time. Great fun activities have evolved from having to deal with features of winter. Playing rather than working is much more fun. From throwing snowballs to building snowmen or snow forts and igloos, to establishing individual winter sports like ice skating, skiing, simple sledding to bobsledding and tobogganing, man’s ingenuity is at the forefront of winter intervention. There are many ways to get around - on snowshoes, skates, skis, sleds, and their transformed evolutions (items made bigger and better) - which were developed over the years to work or play better.

Labels, those stickers inside the sound hole have been counterfeited and applied to cheap guitars. Some counterfeiters make copies of labels in catalogs, stain them to look older, then glue them inside the guitar. With copy quality becoming increasingly better, this can create a problem with authentication. However, some counterfeiters still create their own labels, which can have the wrong font, shape, or con-

tain a nonexistent serial number. You can check the manufacturer’s website for serial numbers, find specific features and materials used, and see pictures of the guitars. This has helped weed out many counterfeit instruments. The good ol’ “Made in USA” mark can’t even be trusted as authentic. Many Chinese knockoffs are being stamped with this once trustinspiring mark. It’s important to know how specific guitars

are made so you can check to see if the one you’re considering is made to the correct specifications. For example, some counterfeits have threescrew truss rods instead of two, as certain authentic models have. It’s also important to know what finishes the company uses on the particular model you’re looking at; you’ll find some counterfeits with finishes that were never used by that company or on that model. A lot of these knockoffs come complete with an

authentic-looking case, manual, tags, and every other detail expected. The bottom line is that if the price of a new, supposedly brand-name guitar is far too cheap to be true, it’s probably a counterfeit. Yamaha photo property of the author. Gibson and Martin photos via Wikipedia. At A Glance Signs of a counterfeit: 1. Inferior craftsmanship. 2. Typos or any spelling variations on labels. 3. Incorrect finish or fin-

ish that doesn’t exist for that model. 4. Wrong number of screw truss rods. Reference books, websites, and collecting groups are the best ways to keep from being fooled by fakes. Here are a few: Gibson (www2.gibson.com/Gibson.a spx); Stack Exchange (http://music.stackexchange.c om/questions); “Guitar Identification: A Reference for Dating Guitars” by A. R. Duchossoir.

James D. Julia, Inc. is extremely proud to present The Private and Personal Collection of Dr. Helga Wall-Apelt March 23, 2015 in Fairfield, Maine, USA Dr. Helga Wall-Apelt’s Personal Asian Collection was approximately 60 years in the making. She is the daughter of a former prominent German physician and she together with her father escaped the Holocaust during World War II. After this traumatic experience, Dr. WallApelt found great solace in the practice of meditation and involvement in the Asian culture. His admiration, love and passion for the culture and their artistic items transcended to his daughter, who while in medical school, began collecting Asian items. Dr. Helga Wall-Apelt eventually visited China to expand her knowledge in the art of acupuncture and ancient herbal treatments. For many years after she had a very successful practice utilizing Chinese healing techniques. In 1993, she moved to Sarasota, Florida and opened the Center for Traditional Chinese Medicines. Dr. Helga Wall-Apelt now spends the majority of her time in New York City and recently has made the very difficult decision to dispose of her vast personal collection that has meant so much to her throughout her life. To the Right: Table Screen with Longevity Theme, Mid/Late Qing Dynasty, China The Yangtze River collection assembled by Dr. Helga Wall-Apelt was, in 1993, on display at the Museum of Fine Arts, 255 Beach Drive NE, St. Petersburg, Florida. The entire collection was documented in a special publication produced at that time. This auction will include nearly all of the items from that renowned collection.
