The Life, Legacy And Furniture Of George Nakashima A Conversation With Mira Nakashima

By Mike McLeod “We are left in awe by the nobility of a tree, its eternal patience, its suffering caused by man and sometimes nature, its witness to thousands of years of earth’s history, its creations of fabulous beauty. It does nothing but good, with its prodigious ability to serve, it gives off its bounty of oxygen while absorbing gases harmful to other living things … Its fruits feed us. Its branches shade and protect us.

And, finally, when time and weather bring it down, its body offers timber for our houses and boards for our furniture. The tree lives on” (1).

George Nakashima’s philosophy reflected his style of craftsmanship: earthy, unexpected, creative, often

His work, which often incorporates slabs of irregular tree trunks or roots, is highly recognizable and appreciated.

Nakashima was born on May 24, 1905, in Spokane, Wash. His parents moved to America from Japan, and both were from the lineage of Samurai.

After earning a bachelor’s degree in architecture, Nakashima studied in France for a time before returning to America and earning a master’s degree, also in architecture, from M.I.T. He then traveled internationally and was hired by an architectural firm in Tokyo. One long-term project involved his overseeing the building of an ashram dormitory in India.

The only known surviving April 14, 1912, first class dinner menu from the R.M.S. Titanic, saved the very night the “unsinkable ship” slipped beneath the waves of the North Atlantic Ocean, sold for $118,750 in Heritage Auctions’ $1.1+ million Americana & Political Grand Format Auction on Nov. 7 in Dallas, Texas. The Nov. 7 auction offered a host of rare and one-of-a-kind items, including the license plates used on the presidential limousine carrying President John F. Kennedy when he was assassinated on Nov. 22, 1963, in Dallas, which sold for $100,000.

“We pride ourselves on preserving unique items which played a crucial role in the history of our country and the world, and this auction was no exception,” said Tom Slater, director of Americana auctions at Heritage. “These objects tell the story of the human experience, and the rare trove of Titanic objects and the Kennedy limo plates are among the most evocative ever offered at Heritage.”

Bernard Buffet’s Eiffel Tower Painting To Lead Auction On Dec. 14 The Monday, Dec. 14, American and European Art sale at Leslie Hindman Auctioneers will include top lots from private collections.

The 162-lot sale will have a range of well-represented artists.

The sale is being led by an early Bernard Buffet work, “La Tour Eiffel,” 1955, which is a strong example of his atmospheric work from the ’50s. In this work, Buffet depicts one of the world’s most recognizable monuments. By including La Grand Roue, a Ferris wheel torn down in 1920, he imbues the painting with a sense of nostalgia and melancholy. The painting will hold an estimate of $200,000 to $300,000.

Another leading painting by a French artist is Jean Beraud’s “Le Pont de Bercy” (est. $200,000 to $300,000). Beraud, known for his talent in depicting everyday scenes of 19th-century Parisian life, chooses here to show Bercy, a separate commune from Paris until 1860. In this painting, one can see the influence of both his fellow Impressionist artists and the Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock tradition, especially in the empty space and strong diagonal lines.

Three exceptional ink-andwash works by Thomas Hart Benton lead the American session. The first is a dynamic sketch of a Holy Roller

He would later turn these and other sketches into a major composite oil painting titled “Hollywood,” 1937-38.

he became a disciple of the ashram’s leader Sri Aurobindo, and he also began to design furniture.

“My father grew up in Seattle and was a Boy Scout,” George’s daughter, Mira Nakashima, explained to me recently. “He often went out by himself in the mountains and felt a wonderful sense of peace there. [At the ashram,] he found the philosophy he was looking for in life. There are different types of yoga, beside the physical discipline, and this philosophy was the

carrots. The farmer related how George Nakashima told him with tears in his eyes how grateful he was for the job. The farmer was happy to have men from the camp who worked so hard.

The farmer also told Mira how the camp authorities required him to drive out each day to pick up the work crew and then drive them home at day’s end.

George and the men in the crew had gained his trust.

Not much remains today of the camp that was 3.5 miles long and one mile wide. During the war years, it held a total of 13,000 people, about 9,000 at its height. Camp Minidoka had 44 housing blocks, each block with 12 barracks.

closed on Oct. 28, 1945. There were several reasons why most wanted to stay: some older people did not want to be a burden on their children; others feared racist violence after the war; others had no home, job or business to return to; some feared repatriation to Japan, which was advocated by some politicians for internees they thought were still loyal to Hirohito; and others had lost confidence in their ability to survive on their own without government assistance (6).

Seeking to redress some of the wrongs, the Civil Liberties Act of 1988 provided about $20,000 to every surviving Japanese-American internee.

In 1943, George and his family were released due to the efforts of his former employer from Tokyo, Antonin Raymond. The Nakashimas soon moved to New Hope, Pa., where they lived and worked on Raymond’s farm. From there, George’s philosophy of furniture came to fruition and eventually to acclaim.

Nakashima’s discipleship in the ashram and education in Camp Minidoka heightened his innate skills and aesthetic to yield a style of functional beauty. Avoiding ostentation, his furniture found beauty in purity while highlighting the character of the wood, particularly its gnarled imperfecA circa 1980 Conoid bench of American black walnut, East Indian rosewood and tions.

camp had libraries, cooperative stores, a hospital, theaters, a warehouse, barbershops, a watch repair shop, nine baseball fields and swimming in an irrigation canal (3).

The climate in the Idaho desert was brutally hot during summer days, cold at night, heavy snow in the winter, and had volcanic desert dust blowing almost constantly and covering everything. It was reported that sometimes the dust storms were so heavy darkness fell on the camp (4).

To many today, these hardships pale in comparison with the civil rights that were lost. However, in light of the recent controversy surrounding the Allen Eaton Collection of internment art that was going to be auctioned, (5) Mira shed a different light on the internment camps in American history: “The angriest people were not those interned; it was the next generation who weren’t there themselves. It was blown up to be a civil rights thing, but it was an overreaction. Those there just accepted it as that’s the way it is. They came here to America to be free,” and ironically, internment in a camp was the price they paid to show their patriotism.

Some families were able to leave the camps as they found sponsorships or by invitation from friends in other parts of the country.

Surprisingly, the majority did not leave Camp Minidoka until they were forced out before it

yoga of doing (Karma Yoga). It gave him the strength and courage to do what he did.”

At the outset of World War II, George Nakashima returned to America and married Marion Okajima, settled in Seattle and had a daughter, Mira. A son, Kevin, joined the family after the war.

In the year following the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Nakashimas were sent to a Japanese internment camp in southern Idaho. In Camp Minidoka, George met and was tutored by a carpenter trained in traditional Japanese woodworking. There, he learned attention to detail and to strive for perfection, even under the difficult circumstances of a lack of available wood.

Mira Nakashima was only six months old when her family was relocated to the high desert of Idaho. Mira has no memories of being in the camp at that young age, particularly since her family left after about a year.

“When I went back to the site of the camp, I didn’t remember it specifically, but I felt like I’d been there before,” said Mira.

While visiting, she met a farmer who had employed her father to tend his field of

“When he first started out and was working with a Japanese carpenter, he used found materials around the camp and bitterbrush from the desert,” recounted Mira.

“When he came back here, he didn’t have money for good wood but got cutoffs from the lumber industry and went from there. After Dad was able to get these cutoffs, he made friends with loggers in the area and got trees others didn’t want; then he oversaw the milling to get the right direction and thickness.”

Why does George Nakashima’s craftsmanship captivate people? “Because it is different. My father integrated life and work by not tying into the big-corporation mindset of mass production and making money. To him, it was more important to make beautiful furniture; money would come later. He combined utilitarianism with beauty.”

“I had a tour group through this morning, and they said they felt peaceful here and felt the furniture was alive,” said Mira. “Dad always felt he was giving trees new life, and life continues. Not everybody understands this; it’s not for everyone, but if you are sensitive to it, you will sense life in each item we make. People realize this when they have sold their Nakashimas. It’s like selling a part of themselves.”

“I feel that there is a spirit in trees that’s very deep. I am somewhat of a Druid that way … I do feel that in order to produce a fine piece of furniture, the spirit of a tree lives on. I can give it a second life, as something like the medical profession. But I think this is in a way even more realistic and deeper than what the medical profession can do Continued on page 6

Collector Anecdotes And Antics

What To Expect When Consigning: Part IV - The End Result in the 10 to 25 percent range.

Some consignors of higherend collectibles can even negotiate to pay no consignment rate and get part of the buyer’s premium from auction houses that choose to levy one. Note that this kind of consignment is quite uncommon and generally involves very valuable items or collections that are in very high market demand. This is especially true if the market for those items is experiencing an increase in demand and if there are several auction houses that cater to the items in question. Much like the greater antiques and collectibles market overall, auctioneers are in competition with one another given the markets they each serve. This is one reason why researching a potential auctioneer or auction house is paramount.

It should come as no surprise that many dealers and

resellers in the trade get most of their inventory from auctions. As an avid video game collector and seller, I often buy a lot of my items at auction and resell some of these goods in other auctions. A lot of novice collectors ask me how I can buy items at auction and resell these same items through other auction venues at a profit. The reasoning is quite simple. Each auctioneer and auction house creates a market in which buyers and sellers meet. I am simply buying in a different market environment that becomes advantageous to myself when I go to sell in another. Not all auction houses and auctioneers achieve the same results when selling like items. It is important for any potential consignor to do their homework and understand this

before they agree to consign.

This is also a reason why I am a firm believer that selling any collection should never be done at a time of loss, grief, or under financial distress.

In conclusion, a fair consignment rate has to be fair to all parties involved. There is no right or wrong answer.

Consignors have to understand how valuable the services of an auctioneer really are and how much work they truly do. On the other side, auctioneers need to understand that collectors spend a large portion of their lives and finances acquiring their cherished belongings and want to ensure their items are being sold at a cost they deem acceptable and, most of all, fair. It’s defining what is fair that is the hard part of the equation. Thanks for reading!

established expert need to be used for any of the identification, grading, or cataloging of the collection.

So what exactly is a fair consignment rate in any of these scenarios? If part or most of your consignment deals with a lot of research, cataloging, and grading on the part of the auctioneer, he or she should be compensated for that work. I have seen consignment rates in the range of 20 to 35 percent regardless of any buyer’s premium in situations like this, if not more. If an auctioneer is willing to do all this work for less than that, more power to the consignor.

In situations where a seller has a collection of concentrated items already researched, documented, and graded, the consignor can expect a much better consignment rate overall. It is not uncommon to find consignments on these kinds of items

My last several articles talked about various stages of the consignment process and what potential sellers should expect when consigning their cherished collectibles to auction. This is my final entry in this particular series of articles, and this article examines establishing a fair consignment rate.

Auctioneers provide a very valuable service to their consignors. Their job should never be underestimated.

Auctioneers have to follow a fairly strict code of conduct and in most cases be licensed in the states in which they practice their craft. They are held accountable for their actions and can be held liable both in a legal sense as well as a financial one. Most, if not all, auctioneers work diligently to ensure that their consignors get the highest price possible at auction. The fact that most auctioneers are paid a percentage of the selling price rather than a flat fee is good for any consignor because it ensures the auctioneer’s interests are on par with any potential consignor.

I ended my last article by stating that consignors of highly liquid and/or valuable antiques and collectibles are in a much better position to negotiate the terms of a consignment rate than those consignors who have larger collections of undocumented items or mediocre items whose market value is less fluid or not in as much demand. I also posed several questions for readers asking about the potential consignor who owns two sheds full of uncatalogued antique tools or the action figure collector who has a room full of items that were never researched or evaluated. When I consigned part of my vintage comic book collection to Heritage Auctions early this past year, the collection consisted of under 40 vintage comic books, all graded by CGC. The

grading, authenticating, and certification was already completed. All the auction house had to do was scan each book into their database, write a brief summary highlighting the grade and then promote it accordingly. There was no needed research, endless reviewing of the noted condition of the item, or having to catalog what the item was. All those time-consuming steps were already completed beforehand. This is not to say that if I had an ungraded collection of say 400 comic books of similar importance that auction houses would not be interested in a potential consignment. I am merely attempting to demonstrate that since my collection was already graded by a third party and there was a stable and fairly liquid market for my items, the auction house had to do a lot less work than it would for someone who is bringing them a collection of ungraded books for sale.

Going back to my initial questions posed, a consignor who has two sheds full of undocumented lower-end antique tools cannot typically expect an auction house to offer a similar consignment rate to the collector who has 10 to 20 high-grade and possibly rare antique tools. There is much less work on the part of the auctioneer in the latter example than in the former.

This must be taken into account. This is especially true if the services of an

Mercer Museum Kicks Andy Warhol World Off The Holiday Season Record Shattered

The Mercer Museum kicked off the holiday season with its annual exhibit, “Under the Tree: A Century of Holiday Trees and Toys,” which will run until Sunday, Jan. 3, 2016. “Under the Tree” captures the excitement of Christmas from a child’s point of view and features trees decorated to the tastes of earlier eras together with some of the toys that once delighted children on Christmas mornings past.

“Under the Tree: A Century of Holiday Trees and Toys” features trees decorated with period ornaments and quality reproductions that show the evolution of this Christmas tradition in America from the 1860s through the 1960s. Some of the toys on view are trains, military toys (cardboard soldiers, cast-iron and wooden cannons), dolls including a limited-edition Christmas Barbie from the 1980s, a View Master reel (ca. 1940-60), tin wind-up toys, Baby Boomer toys, and a selection of ice skates from the 1800s through the 1950s.

“Under the Tree” is included

with museum admission.

Visitors to the Mercer Museum can also see the popular exhibition, LEGO “Castle Adventure,” on view until Monday, Jan. 18, 2016. LEGO “Castle Adventure” invites builders of all ages to plan and build their very own castles, using one of the greatest building materials of all time, LEGO bricks. The exhibit features a life-size LEGO dragon, jousting station, lookout tower, 3D catapult and models of European castles built out of LEGO bricks. LEGO “Castle Adventure” is included with museum admission.

Admission to the Mercer Museum is $14 for adults, $12 for seniors, and $8 for youths (ages 6 to 17). Children under age 5 and members are admitted free of charge.

The museum is located at Pine Street and Scout Way in Doylestown, Pa., and is open for self-guided exploration seven days a week.

For more information, call 215-345-0210 or visit www.mercermuseum.org.

Titanic

Walker, he kept them between a pair of books on his bookshelf.

President Kennedy’s 1951 U.S. Passport, issued to him as a congressman, sold for $52,500, and a 1950s passport issued to Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy sold for $45,000.

Kennedy’s well-used leather wallet and 1959-61 Massachusetts Driver’s License went for $38,750, against a $20,000 estimate.

Additional highlights included Zachary Taylor’s personally-owned eyeglasses and case, which sold for $27,500; an Abraham Lincoln and Andrew Johnson 1864 campaign flag that realized $24,375; Dwight D. Eisenhower’s personallyowned stetson hat, $22,500; and a substantial lock of hair from President George Washington, which sold for $18,750.

For more information, visit www.HA.com.

Continued from page 1

Laura Wilson Luce of Titusville, Pa., sold for $12,500, and a menu from the R.M.S. Carpathia, the ship that first reached the Titanic following the sinking, sold for $3,125.

Of equal interest to history, the license plates on the presidential limousine President Kennedy was in when he was assassinated were fatefully saved from the trash 52 years ago by Willard C. Hess, the owner of Hess & Eisenhardt, the company that retrofitted presidential limousines. The plates were purchased by an ardent Kennedy collector who wished to stay anonymous. They were consigned to Heritage by Jane Walker, Hess’s daughter, who kept the license plates for the last half century in a drawer in her Ohio kitchen. While her father was alive, said

Andy Warhol’s “Endangered Species,” 1983, set a new world record for a numbered edition when it sold for $725,000 in Heritage Auctions’ New York debut of Modern & Contemporary Art. The Oct. 28 auction, the first of two such sales planned this season, garnered more than $3.8+ million on just 21 lots.

“New York’s Modern & Contemporary Art community gave Heritage Auctions a warm, warm welcome,” said Leon Benrimon, Heritage’s New York director of Modern & Contemporary Art. “We put together a strong selection unique artworks you couldn’t find anywhere else - and it’s clear collectors respected the selection and the overall character of what Heritage can bring to market.”

A stunning discovery, Robert Motherwell’s “Untitled (Ochre with Black Line),” 1972-73/74, sold for $965,000 in its auction debut following more than 40 years in a private collection.

Another extraordinary find, “Surveillance Camera,” 2010,

by Ai Weiwei, the famed Chinese dissident artist, sold for $401,000. “Ai Weiwei’s works rarely come to auction, and we were happy to give it the exposure it deserved,” said Benrimon.

“Blonde Vivienne” (Filled In), 1985/1995, by Tom Wesselmann, sold for $317,000, more than double its $150,000 estimate.

Warhol’s silkscreen “Lola

Jacobson,” 1980, an iconic society portrait, ended at $185,000.

A famed and long-considered missing early Mel Ramos painting depicting Batman at his baleful best, “A Sinister Figure Lurks in the Dark,” 1962, which surfaced in northern California, realized $173,000. The painting was consigned by California resident Bill Steinfelt, who received the painting in 1962 from Ramos, trading a pile of comic books for it. Ramos was an undiscovered young painter at the time, then a teacher. The series from which the painting originates is considered the artist’s first mature work.

“Reflections on Crash,” 1990, from Roy Lichtenstein’s “Reflections” series, sold for $161,000 against a $100,000 estimate; Warhol’s “$ (Quadrant),” 1982, a unique screen print in colors, sold for $131,000; “Untitled (X on Brown Paper),” circa 1933-34,

by Arshile Gorky ended at $125,000; and “Balancier,” 1973, by Alexander Calder, realized $100,000.

Angie’s Country Corner

because I can make an object that lives and can live forever, possibly, if used properly. So that’s my objective and that’s my happiness to find this relationship with a tree” (7).

George Nakashima’s sense of beauty continues to enthrall collectors. His work graces the homes of Steven Spielberg, Brad Pitt, Julianne Moore and many others (8). A Nakashima Conoid bench, Conoid chair, Lounge chair and Minguren II coffee table are preserved for history in the Smithsonian.

In 2006, a Nakashima redwood burl and black walnut dining table sold for a stratospheric $822,400 at Sotheby’s (9). After the stock market crashed in 2008, prices reset and corrected, but the market has again witnessed an upswing. In 2012, fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg bought a 14-foot Nakashima dining table for $130,500 at a Phillips, de Pury & Luxembourg auction (10).

Today, Mira continues the family tradition of woodworking and furniture making, and she has written a book about her father titled “Nature, Form and Spirit: The Life and Legacy of George Nakashima.” Of her father’s influence, she said, “Today, there is a strong legacy that lives all over the world in using the natural form of wood. The architecture he created on the property here [his workshop, studio, and home in Bucks County, Pennsylvania] now is a Historic National Landmark.

Another landmark in his life was to leave the camp in the desert and start a legacy here in New Hope.”

Coming from a generation embroiled in war, George Nakashima desired peace for the world. “My father had a dream to make Peace Altars for the world. If people could meet around them, we could get a little closer to world peace … sitting or standing around one has a unifying affect.”

He planned to build seven Altars of Peace (which are large tables), one for each of the seven continents. Three Altars of Peace have been installed thus far: one in the

Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City; another in the Russian Academy of Art in Moscow; and a third in Auroville, in Pondicherry, India, an offshoot of the Sri Aurobindo Ashram where George was a disciple at one time. A fourth is planned for Capetown, South Africa, at the Desmond Tutu Peace Centre.

The New York Altar of Peace is made from two matching walnut planks; it measures 10.5by-10.5-feet and weighs more than 1,000 lbs.

George Nakashima passed away on June 15, 1990, in New Hope, Pa., leaving the world a legacy of beauty and a hope for peace.

Morphy Auctions’ Premier Coin Auction Tops $690,000 Morphy’s Premier Coin Auction on Oct. 31 was all treats and no tricks for the hundreds of numismatists participating in the sale.

This event featured 828 lots of the world’s most collectible and important local, national, and international currencies, including gold coins and silver dollars with all denominations and key and semi-key dates represented. When the final hammer fell on this 100 percent sell-through event, 90 lots realized $1,000 or above, nine lots realized $2,500 or above, and five lots registered over $5,000.

This auction offered lucky collectors an outstanding selection of more than 50 penny and half cent coin buying opportunities. A 1796 United States Liberty Cap half cent, in very good condition, realized $6,500. The head-right facing version of this currency was only minted from 1794 through 1797 and is extraordinarily rare. And one collector took a shine to a 1909 S VDB graded wheat penny that realized $2,500. This sought-after coin in mint condition features the initials of Victor David Brenner, the designer of the Lincoln cent, and was minted in San Francisco.

Silver dollars were another sterling category in this

auction, with more than two dozen examples on offer. A 1796 small Eagle silver dollar in fine plus condition soared to $9,000. This coin, minted from only 1795 to 1803, was The 1796 U.S. Liberty Cap halfcent realized $6,500. made from 89.2 percent silver instead of the traditional 90 percent due to a silver shortage at the time.

And an 1893 Morgan silver dollar in This 1796 small Eagle silver dollar realized $9,000. very good condition realized $4,000, far from small change! Its mark from the San Francisco mint makes this example much more desirable than similar examples struck in Philadelphia, Carson City, or New Orleans.

Collectors also took a shine to over 100 lots of gold

coins featured in this sale. An 1878 United States $3 cased gold coin medalled to realize $2,500. This coin was minted from 1854 to 1889 and features an Indian princess as part of its unusual design.

And a 1799 United States $10 Liberty gold coin found its freedom at $9,000. This very fine example was designed Robert Scot, the first Chief Engraver of the United States Mint.

Cut sheets and bank notes were also high currency contenders in this auction. A 1917 United States Elliot-Burke uncirculated $1 note cut sheet more than doubled its high estimate to realize $2,000. A handsomely illustrated, 1875 $10 Ephrata, Pa., charter realized $2,250, while a 1902 Gap, Pa., charter with a distinctive red seal realized $2,750. Both of these Lancaster County bank notes were initially issued at $10.

“It was extraordinary to see such strength across every currency category represented in this auction; 98

percent of the items were from the Shirley and Elmer Pierce collection, which was expertly curated over almost seven decades. The Pierce family attended the sale and was delighted not only with the financial results, but the outpouring of interest in Elmer’s legacy in the coin-collecting community. Elmer had This 1875 $10 Ephrata, Pa., charter realized $2,250. a particularly good eye for Pennsylvania-area currencies.

These also attracted the interest of many local numismatists, who bid enthusiastically for the best examples,” said Dr. John Morphy, coin expert and lead cataloger for this sale.

Man Of Steel Proves To Be A Mighty Force At Hake’s Premium-quality merchandise and strong competition were the winning combination that drove Hake’s Americana and Collectibles Auction to a $1.1 million finish on Nov. 12. The online doubleheader, with two days of feverish bidding divided by an intermission day, featured some of the finest examples of rare pop culture items ever to appear at auction.

“Although the term ‘pop culture’ is ubiquitous these days, it has always been in Hake’s vocabulary, and in our 48 years of operation, we’ve never assembled a more impressive group of collectibles falling under that heading than what was organized for this sale,” said Alex Winter, president of Hake’s.

“The response from our bidders exceeded even our own lofty expectations, and we achieved some truly staggering prices on many pieces.”

Superman soared to the number-one slot when Frank Frazetta’s (American, 19282010) original specialty artwork depicting the Man of Steel sold for $35,420, a price well beyond the estimate of $10,000 to $20,000. The professionally matted 15.5-by17.5-inch watercolor of an airborne Superman was one of many choice auction items that came to Hake’s from the late Ken “Franco” Toscanini’s collection. All prices quoted in this report are inclusive of a 15 percent buyer’s premium.

One of the predicted stars of the November online sale was a framed and matted

original album cover for the Beatles’ 1964 studio album “A Hard Day’s Night,” autographed on verso by all four members of the legendary English band. Multiple-autographed Beatles material is extraordinarily rare, and in the case of the LP in Hake’s sale, it came with not only a Hake’s Certificate of Authenticity (COA) but also a Letter of Authenticity from Frank Caiazzo, the world’s top authority on Beatles handwriting. The signed album closed at $27,781.

Superman also claimed third place in the auction when a rare Superman linenmounted one-sheet for the 1948 movie starring Kirk Alyn realized $16,761. It came from the Toscanini collection, as did a colorful pictorial shipping carton that originally contained 20 boxes of Bowman’s Superman 1-Cent Super Bubble Gum and Picture Card sets. One of only two examples known to Hake’s, it landed at $12,525.

Other Superman highlights included a die-cut promotional folder in the shape of the superhero, $9,260; a circa1949 “Superman Official Junior Suspenders” display box with contents, $8,625; and a rare Superman Cut-Outs book, $7,590.

began to study examples of original upholstery and to design new systems that would replicate period coverings without adding thousands of damaging tacks to fragile antique frames. In time, his minimally intrusive upholstery techniques were copied and adapted by colleagues at institutions across the country.”

Graves joined the Conservation Department at its inception in 1984. As David B. Blanchfield, Colonial Williamsburg’s director of conservation, writes in the book: “In a time when great emphasis is placed on the formal education of young art conservators, Leroy’s career serves as a reminder that an earlier paradigm, that of apprentice training, remains valid. Leroy matured as a professional concurrently with many of the modern concepts of scientific conservation, and he has helped define those concepts as they relate to upholstered furniture conservation ... Individuals become

the subject been written by someone who is both a craftsman and a furniture historian, qualifications that provide the author with a unique perspective.

A chapter on “The Graves Approach” for nonintrusive upholstery conservation is included as well. As explained in the book, “Reupholstering antique seating furniture using traditional methods compromises and, in some cases, destroys the original integrity of the objects. When hundreds of new tacks are added to secure successive treatments, for example, furniture frames suffer extensive damage, and evidence of the object’s original upholstery is lost ... the Graves approach assesses each piece individually and develops a treatment plan in response to its individual needs.” These nonintrusive methods were developed to restore antiques to their earliest appearance without marking or disturbing the frames, thus preserving not only original materials but also evidence.

Recognized today worldwide as a leader in the field of upholstery conservation, Graves reached that status in the field via an uncommon path. He first joined the facilities maintenance staff of Colonial Williamsburg in 1967 and was soon thereafter recruited to be an art handler in the Department of Collections, a position he held for nearly 10 years.

As Ronald L. Hurst, the Carlisle H. Humelsine chief curator at The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation, writes of Graves in his foreword to the book: “His keen eye, intellectual curiosity, exceptional hand skills and intense work ethic caught the attention of the senior curatorial staff and led to an opportunity to work in the furniture conservation lab ... [There, he]

During most of the last century, furniture curators and collectors paid little attention to historic upholstery. Not until the 1970s did the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation and several other museums begin to reconsider the long-held practice of removing and discarding original upholstery when they acquired seating forms. These institutions came to realize that modern upholsterers were overstuffing the contours of early seating and creating an out-of-proportion and distorted appearance that was hiding carefully shaped frames, carved ornaments and other design elements. For the next 20 years, Colonial Williamsburg’s curators began collecting 17th-, 18th-, and early 19th-century seating that retained original coverings and assembled a noteworthy assemblage of British and American pieces. Together, these objects and their forensic studies answered myriad questions about early upholstery, from webbing patterns to bolster shapes to trimmings for show materials.

Now, in “Early Seating Upholstery: Reading the Evidence” (The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation, $65, October 2015), conservator Leroy Graves analyzes the objects forensically and illustrates his methods of nonintrusive conservation. The result is a significant contribution to our understanding of the field.

In illustrated chapters featuring color photography as well as black-and-white line drawings, “Early Seating Upholstery” presents a brief history of upholstered seating furniture and discusses the 18th-century upholsterer and the structure and components of upholstered seating furniture (including sections on furniture frames, upholstery materials, and establishing the physical profiles of the objects). The book describes how to read the physical “evidence” on a bare frame in ways that will help readers make sense of what they are looking at. Many of the objects analyzed (including early side chairs, back stools, armchairs, easy chairs and settees, sofas and couches) are bare frames that have been upholstered once, twice and up to seven or eight times. Other pieces retain only portions of their original under upholstery.

Smack Dab In The Middle: Design Trends Of The Mid-20th Century All Out For Freedom: Memories And Mementos Of World War II

By Donald-Brian Johnson Seventy years ago, America took a deep breath, hit the reset button, and life began anew. It was 1945, and World War II was finally at an end.

Certainly, the future would have its challenges. But for now, once seemingly insurmountable challenges had been met.

The spirit and dedication of the war years would serve as an inspiration for the future.

Nowhere is that inspiration more vividly evident than in the memories and mementos of “life on the homefront.”

In addition to keeping homefires burning and production lines humming, civilians were also busy boosting morale for America’s fighting forces.

One of the most important ways was through upbeat correspondence. Traditional greeting cards were soon replaced by “V-Mail,” a speedier means of keeping in touch with those stationed overseas. Letters written on “V” (for “Victory”) mailers were reduced to 16-mm

microfilm for overseas transport.

For members of the Armed Forces, V-Mail postage was free.

And, thanks to the booklet “How to Write Love Letters,” even the most bashful soldier could make his intentions clear to a stateside sweetheart. Among its tips: “How To Say The Most In A V-Mail Letter.” Did it work? Well, it did for the girl in the ad, who exuberantly exclaims, “Why this is wonderful! It’s the most beautiful love letter that Jim ever wrote me!”

For the militarily clueless, there were publications such as “The War Dictionary” to help them out. If your favorite G.I. correspondent was doing time as a “pearl diver,” congratulations were not in order.

According to the dictionary, that G.I. Joe was on k.p. (kitchen police) duty, washing dishes!

Many Americans wanted to do something more for the enlisted men and women passing through their communities.

That desire to spread good cheer gave birth to military-only “Canteens.” The canteen concept began in New York City, with the American Theatre Wing’s “Stage Door Canteen.”

Here, Broadway stars performed for, danced with, and

served snacks to visiting service personnel. The canteens soon spread to California, with the opening of the “Hollywood Canteen,” a project spearheaded by Bette Davis.

Soon, small-town canteens dotted America, with everyday folk making the days brighter for transient troops. One of the best-known, Nebraska’s “North Platte Canteen,” offered coffee, sandwiches, and smokes to those traveling the Union Pacific Railroad route. At its peak, the North Platte Canteen played host to over 8,000 visitors daily, once serving 2,000 soldiers within 30 minutes.

“Rosie the Riveter,” the iconic image of the World War II working woman, is celebrated here in a 1942 song by Red Evans & John Jacob Loeb,est.$25-$30.

With nylon in short supply during World War II,Vogue Picture Records offered this A “Sweetheart” pin from the earliest “Serenade to a Pair of Nylons,” by the days of the war, 2.25-inches long, est.

Charlie Shavers Quintet,est.$100-$125. $30-$40.

Staying healthy on the homefront included nutritious “Victory Lunches.”

This lunch box-shaped cookbook was offered by Omar Bread, est. $10-$15.

Just for the fellas, “Male Call” was a comic strip created exclusively for men in the military by Steve Canyon and artist Milton Caniff, 1945 hardbound collection, est. $50-$75.

Of course, civilians needed moraleboosting too.

Patriotism and entertainment often combined.

Many Hollywood stars tirelessly toured the country promoting the sale of war bonds. Attend a rally, buy a bond, and any- Hungry, boys? Volunteers at Nebraska’s famed thing could happen.

“North Platte Canteen” display a delectable array of Glamorous Dorothy sandwiches. The 1943 photo is from the Union Lamour might invite you onstage for a kiss Pacific archives, est. $10-$15. ... bubbly Betty Grable might ask the comfort food of the times. you to jitterbug ... or sultry When days seemed darkest, Marlene Dietrich might enchant soothing vocalists such as Dinah you by playing a tune on her Shore, Kate Smith, and Bing Crosby offered the promise of a musical saw.

Radio programs served as better tomorrow. Comedian Bob Hope provided ongoing reminders that it was all right (more than all right, actually - it was your duty as an American) to laugh in the face of adversity.

Nearly every radio program incorporated the realities of wartime life into its storyline. On “Fibber McGee & Molly,” for instance, the duo coped with Fibber’s “black market” flirtation. (In case you’re wondering, Fibber finally recognized the virtues of rationing, just in time for the end of the episode).

The message was clear. In the words of one radio promo, Helpful hints for the homefront.A pam- “No matter who we are, or phlet courtesy of WIBW Radio, Topeka, where we hail from, we’re all Kan., est. $25-$35.

Americans. We’re all in this together. Working together, we can succeed.”

World War II homefront memorabilia celebrates a particularly significant slice of American life, 70 years on, the items still radiate with a refreshingly positive energy.

These aren’t just dusty artifacts.

They’re part of America’s memA “Cleminsons of California” coffee ory book.

Antiques & Auction News — December 11, 2015 - - 19

NAWCC Course Breaks New Ground The new educational course “Luxury or Lie? How to Identify Genuine from Fake Watches” held through the National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors (NAWCC) was a resounding success. Instructor Adam Harris designed and developed the course, which was held in October at the NAWCC campus in Columbia, Pa. The course included an overview of watch types, terminology, and techniques to detect counterfeited or reworked luxury timepieces from the genuine.

Among other topics, the course covered the following: historical chronology of the watch, its terminology, and complications; the differences between “homage,” “Frankenstein,” “re-worked,” “fake,” and “super-fake” timepieces; best ways to identify the components of a genuine timepiece and reference its

original manufacturer; and tips to quickly identify the genuine from the fake: “Hands On” Fakes vs. “Genuine” vs. “Reworks.”

During one program, participants received a special tool (the Litmus Test) to determine very quickly without opening the case whether a timepiece was not genuine and correct.

Attendance was high among horological collectors and multiple professionals from the jewelry and appraisal industry, and the course was universally praised by the following attendees.

“Thanks again for the course you prepared. The knowledge gained was well worth every minute of it,” said Josh Bryant.

“It was excellent, and I will tell the other members of Chapter 12 of the NAWCC and also the members of the Potomac Guild of the Horological Association of Virginia (HAV),” said

Joseph Jabbour.

“The class was a great asset to my business, and I will use what I learned daily. Thanks for offering the course.

It’s great to be a member,” said Martin Fuller.

NAWCC Director of Education Katie Knaub is enthusiastic about the new offering. “We are thrilled to continue to offer this course because we have heard from many people who deal with luxury watches on a daily basis that this course has fulfilled a definite training need not offered elsewhere.”

The course will be offered again on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, May 21, 22, and 23, 2016, from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the classroom facilities at NAWCC headquarters in Columbia, Pa. For further information and to register, contact Katie Knaub at 717-684-8261, ext. 237, or email education@nawcc.org.
