“Fern Coppedge: New Discoveries” Now Open At The Michener Art Museum FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 25, 2020 • VOL. 51, NO. 39

Miss Morgan’s Milkweed Antiques Antique And Artisan Show Set For Oct. 2 and 3 Lebanon Valley Expo Center Will Host Popular Annual Event The show must go on, with proper precautions, of course. The “open air” 8th annual Miss Morgan’s Milkweed Antiques Antique and Artisan Show will be held on Friday and Saturday, Oct. 2 and 3, at the Lebanon Valley Expo Center complex.

Show hours will be noon to 5 p.m. for day one and 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. for day two.

The Expo Center is located at 80 Rocherty Road, Lebanon, Pa. Gas up the truck, get some seasonal garb, fluff up a fancy hat and stroll among the best pickers to come together at one unique antique and artisan event.

This fall show is hosted by the owners of Miss Morgan’s Milkweed Antiques, Diane Gibble and Troy Tranquillo. The two started the show 14 years ago in the backyard of their shop in Bethel, Pa., with just a few tents full of great vendors and eager shoppers who came dressed in witch hats and costumes to celebrate the fall event. Each year, the show grew bigger and better, and with that came bigger and better venues. This will be the second year that they have brought their show to the Lebanon Valley Expo Center, and it proves to be perfect in light of the ongoing pandemic. Not only does this venue provide shelter from uncomfortable weather conditions, but also allows for social distancing. Vendors will be provided with larger spaces to allow more room for social distancing within their booth spaces, and, when possible, empty spaces will be provided between vendors to allow guests a place to step aside. Hand sanitizer will be available at the front entrance and other points throughout the show. All facility overhead doors (and there are many) will be open to transform the facility into an “open air event,” so please dress accordingly. The show will go on rain or shine.

What makes this fall antique and artisan show so successful?

Well, it’s the talented vendors, of course. And this year’s line-up of quality vendors will not disappoint.

The slogan, “Bring a truck,” isn’t a joke. Shoppers will need one to haul off their goods.

The show will once again welcome Jill Peterson, editor and publisher of “A Simple Life” magazine, and author of over a dozen hardcover books. Peterson travels the country to photograph and write about unique people, their homes, and unique antiques and collections and shares their stories and images in her books and magazine.

She is also the owner of Frontera Roots, where she showcases her personal line of organic clothing and jewelry. Shoppers will have the opportunity to purchase her creative wares and books. To learn more, visit www.asimplelifemagazine.com.

It all started with some rag balls, and now Alechia’s House of Country has grown into several successful businesses. Alechia’s House will make a welcome return to the show. Her business in Northeastern Pennsylvania has been operating for over 30 years and carries a large variety of home furnishings, antiques, farmhouse, industrial and home décor for all seasons. Alechia conducts live sales on Facebook and has a shop in Muncy, Pa. Each year, the line-up of vendors grows, and this year is no different, especially with so many shows being canceled.

Works By Pioneering To Modern Masters That Shaped The Glass Movement The Muskegon Museum of Art (MMA) presents “Glass: Treasures from the Permanent Collection,” a spectacular and immersive glass experience, on view now through Nov. 29. This exhibition displays an array of works from the museum’s collection of vintage and modern glass.

This dramatic and colorful display of the MMA’s decade-spanning collection of studio glass features works by many of the artists that defined the studio glass movement, including Dale Chihuly, Harvey Littleton, and Marvin Lipofsky, along with works made by today’s new masters. Collections of vintage Tiffany and Steuben lamps and glasswork and pieces from the pioneering days of contemporary studio glass give visitors a glimpse into the changing technologies and interests that have shaped the glass movement.

“Glass” also celebrates the legacy of C. Corcoran “Corky” Tuttle and her husband, Robert Tuttle, who introduced the museum and its supporters to studio glass and helped guide collecting.

Through Corky, the MMA hosted internationally recognized glass artists Dante Marioni, Stephen Rolfe Powell, Benjamin Moore, Debora Moore, Sonja Blomdahl, Nancy Callan, and many others featured in this show.

Tuckers’ 30-year assemblage Of “Iron As Art” Includes Many Rare Forms Ping! Bam! Clang! Those are the ear-piercing sounds that used to excite thrill seekers at target-shooting galleries of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Commonly seen at early midways, carnivals, saloons and other public places where people sought amusement, shooting galleries invited all comers – young and old – to step up, take aim and hopefully hit the target and win a prize. Each target was a sturdy, painted cast-iron form, usually replicating an animal or human figure. While originally intended as visual enticements that, over time, would become scrap metal, shooting gallery targets defied their intended lifespans. In the 1980s/’90s they were rediscovered, as art objects. Richard and Valerie Tucker were among the earliest collectors who embraced “iron as art,” and it is their incomparable shooting gallery target collection that will take center stage at Soulis Auctions on Saturday, Sept. 26.

“The Tuckers are legendary as collectors of shooting gallery targets. They scoured the United States to locate the extraordinary pieces in their collection, many of which are large and complex. A fair number of them are the only known examples of their type,” said Soulis Auctions’ owner/auctioneer Dirk Soulis. “Richard

The only known example of William F. Mangels’ (Coney Island, N.Y.) castiron light-up clown gallery target known as “Rowdy” is monumental in size, 26-by-19.5 inches, and comes with a custom iron stand. Depicted in the book “American Vernacular” by Maresca/Ricco, it is estimated at $30,000-$40,000.

Classic American Target and Arcade Forms.’ There isn’t a finer or more extensive collection of targets anywhere. In its particular category, it is the alpha and the omega.”

Clowns were a popular subject in early carnival targets. The Tucker collection includes the only extant example of a William F. Mangels (Coney Island, N.Y.) cast-iron light-up clown target known as “Rowdy.”

Collector Anecdotes And Antics Reason To Worry: What Is Currently Driving Massive Prices Being Paid For Collectibles?

It should come as no surprise that I have an interest in economics and finance, in addition to my genuine love for the antiques and collectibles trade. I routinely bring up the subjects of investing and speculating in my articles because this is a regular occurrence in the modern area collectibles trade. Agree or disagree, no one can dispute the amount of investors that now occupy the antiques and collectibles trade on a regular basis, and in a post digital age world, never before has so much information been readily available for the willing collector and investor.

I am often fascinated with the amount of record breaking sales and auction houses that are now dealing in a lot of coveted artifacts from my youth. The $100,000-plus “Magic: The Gathering� card.

The $50,000 “Pokemon� card.

The $10,000 Nintendo game.

On the other side of the spectrum we are seeing regular auction records being broken for historical artifacts, rare coins, and even high-end art.

What’s even more mind blowing is that a lot of these records are being broken right now while the world is on standby due to the global pandemic. Just by looking at current world events, we could be facing a worldwide depression.

Miraculously, however, there appears to be a disconnect from what is happening on Wall Street versus what is happening on Main Street.

The antiques and collectibles trade has always mirrored the demographics of collectors quite well. Wealth inequality exists in the antiques and collectibles trade just as it does in the overall economy. There are collectibles for every

socioeconomic demographic, regardless of income or assets. I interact daily with a multitude of collectors, speculators, dealers, and investors from within the trade. I have witnessed speculation on items that cost just a few dollars and have witnessed well financed, highly educated collectors target items that cost $50,000 each. Ironically, even in the current unknown times we are in, most collectors I talk to are not overly worried about the future. This is especially true in the high end side of the trade.

A review of the recent Heritage Auctions Signature Comic and Comic Art Auction shows that there is an insane amount of cash coming into the collectibles trade at an alarming rate. I have not seen this amount of cash coming into the market in quite some time. Let me cite one example.

On Feb. 21, 2019, Heritage Auctions auctioned off an original factory-sealed booster box base set of “Pokemon�

First Edition cards. The auction ended at a record breaking price of $78,000, which includes the 20-percent buyer’s premium that Heritage charges. At the particular time this sale went off, the online collecting forums were abuzz of the news, and a lot of analysts in the trade were stunned. “Pokemon� first appeared on the scene in the United States in early 1999, meaning this item was literally only 20 years of age when it reached this record selling price. Fast forward to Sept. 10, 2020, and that same factorysealed booster box from the first edition base set of “Pokemon� just sold for $198,000. That price also includes the 20-percent buyer’s premium. That means an investor going after a highend “Pokemon� product more than doubled their money in a very short period of time.

Interestingly enough, “Pokemon� isn’t the only pop culture-based collectible that is soaring in value right now. We are seeing similar

situations being played out in all aspects of the collectibles trade. Vintage video games, “Magic: The Gathering,� vintage comic books, and even in some cases, vintage toys, are all going strong.

As someone who also dabbles in expensive collectibles, I was eager to learn more about the thoughts and mindset of some of these collectors. Part of me was curious as to why, in the middle of a global pandemic and economic uncertainty, would someone pay a record price for a box of “Pokemon� cards or a vintage comic book?

Given my contacts within the trade, it did not take me long to get an answer. Most of the collectors operating in this pool of the market are already established, and most told me it was because they felt that the financial markets are being unfairly manipulated in what appears to be a massive speculative bubble in the antiques and collectibles trade. This response did not surprise me.

It should be noted that it is not just the high end side of the collectibles trade that is trending upward. Thanks to the stimulus provided from the U.S. government and a period of enhanced unemployment benefits, even the lower end of the trade was quickly becoming inflated.

Vintage video games that normally sold for $50 or less could be seen selling for eBay for $75 to $100 each thanks in part due to the global lockdowns instituted by most world governments. What is the average collector or gamer supposed to do when everything is closed and they are not working? Online shopping and home video gaming became among the top two choices.

In conclusion, I am very cautious as to the amount of money now flowing into the antiques and collectibles trade. Investors and collectors need to be very careful as to what they are buying going forward and understand that

no asset class can exponentially rise over the long term.

A correction in some of these more speculative pop culture based collecting markets is long overdue. Long-term collectors and experts need to be more willing to speak out against the influx of newly minted investors coming into the trade who may not be as “sophisticated� as they would like to think. Until next time.

Soulis Auctions

Moonlight will be shining down on the auction in the form of two targets designed as smiling caricatures of the “Man in the Moon.” The first, manufactured circa 1912 by Emil Hoffmann of Chicago, has a bright red open mouth, toothy grin, and eyes that suggest a playful personality. An iron gong on its reverse side was designed to sound a tone when the target is struck. The second Man in the Moon was produced

by H.C. Evans company in the first quarter of the 20th century and, like the Hoffmann example, exhibits a level of realistic detailing not typically seen on shooting gallery targets. Each of the moon lots carries a $6,000-$8,000 estimate.

wears jeans and boots with spurs, and has a target on both his cowboy hat and Westernstyle shirt. Like the aforementioned “Rowdy,” this early 20th-century classic is featured in the book “American Vernacular.” It is expected to make $20,000-$30,000.

Two very rare and unusual C.W. Parker rocking targets – a lion, $3,000-$5,000, and a tophatted rider on a horse, $6,000-$8,000, still have their rocking mechanisms intact, making them especially desirable. A Kansas firm, C.W. Parker was primarily known for its carousels and horses but also gained renown for its artful targets. The Tucker collection includes many Parker designs, including a dog, a deer, a rabbit, goats, an articulated owl, $7,000-$9,000; a curious giraffe with knockdown rider, $3,000-$4,500; a lion with a heart-shape target release; and a beautiful, pre1910 folk-art interpretation of an Indian princess wearing a war bonnet, $7,000-$10,000.

Attributed to William Wurfflein (Philadelphia), an outstanding rooster figure is pure Americana with its red comb and wattle, fanned and delineated tail feathers adorned by a single cut-out spring-loaded star and contrasting target of concentric circles. Its paint is all original, and its overall appearance is very similar to that of images in Wurfflein’s March 1901 catalog and price lists. The only known example of its type, the rooster could command $4,000-$6,000.

Antiques & Auction News — September 25, 2020 - - 5

Red Carpet Sale Set For The Benefit Shop Foundation On Sept. 30 Estate Material From Florida To New York Will Cross The Block glossy black Lucite/composite were only used for photo shoots, according to a label on the underside of the chairs.

The chairs, which came out of a Palm Beach, Fla., estate, have the iconic Chanel double C logo on front and back side of each chair.

From another estate whose owner is based in the design trade comes furniture and art that were in the owner’s multiple international houses. Artwork on offer ranges from a Martha Mayer Erlebacher signed watercolor still life of peppers, zucchini and apples to an oversized and signed Lee Reynolds oilon-canvas abstract scene of horse jockeys in mid-race.

This auction continues the trend of more is more with a small collection from one estate of war propaganda posters with striking graphics, featuring a Dal Holcomb WWII propaganda advertisement for the British and American Ambulance Corps based in New York City. It is inscribed “Quiet! Loose talk can cost lives” and a hand draped in an American flag covers the mouth of well-dressed man.

The auction also features a nice grouping of Oriental carpets, including a vintage oversized Stark carpet, decorated with intertwining multitoned, floral and laurel like vine pattern, and an antique Oriental wool rug having an elaborate multi-toned floral vine and leaf pattern with fringes. The later carpet came out of a Park Avenue estate.

Asian arts also will be represented, including a white porcelain figure of a deity in meditation, possibly Kangxi. A famille rose porcelain vase standing 16 inches tall is intricately painted with figures and symbolic motifs, while a signed pair of Chinese porcelain temple/fu dogs are handpainted in dreamy swirls with horseshoe shapes over a brick ground with gilt accents. The dragon fu dog rests on a sphere, and the underside has an impressed stamp, signed with Chinese characters, nine inches tall.

Rounding out the auction will be a handpainted Larkin & Poole dish, ca. 1820, depicting

a view of a river nestled in the countryside of a quaint Asian village, and a glazed terra cotta cheetah sculpture in a creamy yellow ground with black spots and yellow eyes, 6.5 inches tall.

The monthly Red Carpet sales feature choice collections of antique, Midcentury Modern, brand furnishings, sterling, china, crystal, jewelry and fine art. With a mission of “to donate, to discover and to do good,” the foundation is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit, and auction proceeds support community organizations.

The auction gallery is located at 185 Kisco Ave, Suite 201, Mount Kisco, N.Y. For more information, call 914-864-0707.

A small collection of World War II propaganda posters and ads will be led by this Dal Holcomb ad (est. $100-$300) for the British and American Ambulance Corps, measuring 24.5-by-17.5 inches.

Less is not always more.

Sometimes more is more, and this certainly seems to be the case this fall at The Benefit Shop Foundation Inc., which has a busy auction season scheduled, kicking off with its Red Carpet auction on Wednesday, Sept. 30, at 10 a.m. Filled with several fine estates stretching from Florida to Manhattan, crossing the block will be a wealth of striking and over-the-top statement pieces.

“I’m hard pressed to think of another word that describes this auction better than ‘over-the-top,’” said Pam Stone, owner and founder of The Benefit Shop Foundation Inc. “We have donations here from several fine estates whose tastes definitely leaned toward the lavish.”

One estate is from a man who was an oil executive and lived all over the world, collecting goods from travels with a penchant for Far Eastern antiques, decorative arts and carved furniture. A highlight is a handcarved Chinese bed that is simply grand with elaborate carving, lacquer, chinoserie and gilt work on a well-detailed platform with columns and carved canopy.

The bed features relief carving of dragons, birds, fish, deer, vines and more.

For Chanel devotees, there are other ways to get your Chanel fix besides perfume and handbags with another statement piece in the auction. A rare pair of authentic Chanel boutique chairs in

An expected auction standout is this large over-the-top Chinese bed (est. $500$5,000) that is elaborately decorated and carved, measuring 100 inches tall.

Potter and Potter Auctions’ recent coin-op and advertising sale caught the attention, and the bids, from collectors across the globe.

When the hammer fell for the last time, 89 lots realized between $750-$1,499; 35 lots scored $1,500-$5,999; and four lots made $6,000-plus. Prices noted include the company’s 20-percent buyer’s premium.

Gambling related merchandise was a sure bet in this sale and generated the most impressive results. The top lot in the sale was a large and impressive mid-20th-century neon sign from Reno’s Nevada Club casino. The sign more than tripled its low estimate, making $16,800. Its red, blue, and cream lettering spelled out “Nevada Club / Gaming – Bar – Fine Food.”

Over 900 obsolete Harrah’s casino chips realized $4,320. Originally estimated at $1,000-$2,000, this collection was housed in an original, heavy locking brass tray with gilt lettering on its glass.

Rare antique to vintage coin-op machines of all types took several top lot slots at this event. A ca. 1903 Mills Novelty Company five-cent punching bag/boxing strength test arcade machine flexed its muscles at $8,400. Estimated at $3,500-$4,500, this handsomely restored machine lowered a punching bag, and a dial measured the force of the user’s strike.

A ca. 1940 Shoot Hitler countertop trade stimulator and gumball vendor made by the Paul Bennet Company shot to $6,600 on its $1,500$2,000 presale estimate. This device would reward players with a piece of chewing gum or penny, depending on their aim. This may be a record price for this type of machine.

Enthusiastic Turnout And Strong Results For Milestone’s Railroadiana, Petroliana, And Antique Fire Alarms Sale In-House Bidders Claimed 40 Percent Of Items From Maiher Collection Those who knew the late Brian Maiher described him as one of the most passionate and astute collectors of railroadiana, petroleum-related memorabilia and fire-related antiques in the entire country.

On Aug. 29, Maiher’s many friends in the hobby, as well as fellow collectors who knew of him only by reputation, had the opportunity to bid on his extraordinary 40-year estate collection. Milestone Auctions hosted the event at their spacious suburban-Cleveland venue, where in-house attendees competed vigorously against a strong contingent of phone and Internet bidders.

The final tally revealed that 40 percent of the winning bids had been placed by gallery guests, who were eager to claim their purchases and transport them home for immediate display. “We had an excellent turnout and were very pleased with the results,� said Milestone Auctions co-owner Chris Sammet. The auction totaled $816,000, inclusive of

buyer’s premium.

Every aspect of railroad culture could be found in the Maiher collection, including architectural relics. During his decades-long career as the owner of a demolition and salvage company, Maiher rescued countless structural and decorative appointments from the train stations, roundhouses and other structures that railroad companies had paid him to tear down. “His desire to preserve the material history of railroads was what led to his building a phenomenal collection that contained many one-of-a-kind objects pertaining to trains,� said Sammet.

Railroad signage was an important part of the collection. The top-selling train station sign was a heavy red and gold-painted Pennsylvania Railroad sign for Bird In Hand, a historic town in Lancaster County, Pa. Measuring an impressive 74 inches long, it attracted 80 bids and ultimately sold for $8,400, more than four times the high estimate of $2,000.

Needing no spotlight to make an auction impact, an extremely rare “220� headlight from the famous Yellowstone-type steam locomotive The Duluth, Missabe & Iron Range 28-8-4 (completed in 1941), rose to more than three times its high estimate. It garnered 73 bids before settling at $6,000.

Perhaps the surprise of the day came in the form of a marked “experimental� threechime train whistle for the Norfolk & Western Railway. The rare 27This Gamewell Excelsior fire alarm transmitter inch-long piece drew 58 with 50 code wheels, refinished oak case with bids before selling for beveled-glass front door, sold for $7,800. $11,100, more than five

times the high estimate.

Once Maiher had acquired everything he had wanted from the railroadiana category, he turned his attention to fire alarms, seeking out antique productions from as early as the 1860s. Of the 40 alarms in the sale, some were fitted with gongs or intricate mechanicals, while others had unusual shapes, which only added to their appeal.

On auction day, the star of the fire category was a Gamewell Excelsior fire alarm

transmitter with 50 code wheels. Housed in a handsome oak case with a beveled-glass front door, it was offered with a $3,000$4,000 estimate and ended up selling for $7,800.

The last collecting category that captured Maiher’s imagination, and one which he approached with zeal, was petroliana. He amassed an enviable array of gas pumps and globes, signs, service station display rack, usually with their original motor oil bottles

One of the standouts of the latter grouping is a female NativeAmerican tobacconist countertop figure that stands 66 inches tall, inclusive of its ebonized wood base and enameled, slate-topped pedestal.
