The Stories of John Aaron, Collector and Piano Tuner Editor’s Note: John Aaron is a semi-retired master piano tuner and technician. He has tuned pianos for Burt Bacharach, Tony Bennett, Victor Borge, Ray Charles, Kristin Chenoweth, Judy Collins, Duke Ellington, Ferranti & Teicher, Billy Joel, Elton John, Liberace, Liza Minnelli, Dudley Moore, Ricky Nelson, Willie Nelson, Peter Nero, Luciano Pavarotti, Frank Sinatra, Roger Williams and many more. The following are just a few of his collecting stories.

The Ugly Lamp

I was working on a customer’s piano when I accidentally knocked a large lamp off a nearby table. I remembered noticing the lamp when I came into the room and thinking to myself that it had to be as ugly a lamp as I had ever seen. It looked like a first timer’s ceramics project gone bad!

When it hit the tile floor, it broke into many pieces and was beyond repair. Now, A Hamilton railroad watch.

I would not have paid three bucks for this lamp at a yard sale so I was surprised when I offered to pay for the lamp my customer claimed she had paid $300 for it. Since she was a first-time customer, I had no real reason to trust her, and I suspected she was trying to make a fast buck at my expense.

I explained that since the lamp was that expensive, I would file a claim with my insurance carrier. I took the manufacturer’s name and model number off the base of the lamp and promised to get back to her in a few days. I tracked down the manufacturer and placed a call to its sales representative.

I explained the situation and asked if my customer could have paid $300 for the lamp. The sales representative was bewildered.

“I don’t see how she could have paid that,” he stated. I said to myself, I knew that woman was a chiseler! “Perhaps,” the sales guy ventured, “if she purchased it second hand or at a going-out-of-business sale. List price on that lamp is $750.”

My next phone call was to tell my customer that I was putting a $300 check in the mail immediately. I guess the lesson here lies somewhere between the fact that there is no accounting for taste, and beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Grandpa’s Railroad Pocket Watch—Do You Really Have It?

During the years when I was growing up, there was a saying: “If you want to know the correct time, ask a railroad man.” In those days, we wound our mechanical watches daily, and daily even the best of them lost time. Railroads needed dependable time pieces because even a minute off could result in two trains colliding.

Rail safety experts demanded watches, chronometers actually, of precise accuracy. These pocket watches were manufactured to the highest standards. The watch could not lose more than four seconds in a day. It must have a movement of at least 17 to 23 jewels. The mechanism must have variable spring tension to adjust for temperature extremes. The balance spring must be by Breguet of Switzerland; otherwise, the watch must be American made. A separate lever must be used to set the watch so the time might not accidentally be changed during winding. The face must be white with large, black, Arabic

numbers. The second hand, if present, must be a separate dial located at six o clock. Most importantly, they must never have a cover. Railroad men have little time for flipping open watch covers.

Major manufactures of railroad watches were Waltham, Elgin and Hamilton. Hamilton commanded almost 70% of the market. On most railroads, conductors and higher received their watches at no charge; lower echelon workers were required to purchase their own. About every two weeks, all workers had to have their watches calibrated by a companyappointed watchmaker. Employees of the lower ranks were often allowed to have their timepiece inspected by a dispatcher or station agent. However the service was rendered, the cost was usually deducted from the worker’s pay.

Railroad employees were also required to upgrade their watches after a number of years of service, which varied with each railroad. This is the reason why more than one member of a family can lay claim to owning an heirloom pocket watch from the same railroader.

The Hamilton Railroad Watch. In my many years of riding the rails*, I’ve had scores of people tell me that they have their dad’s or grandpa’s railroad watch. When I ask for a description, it usually turns out they have a pocket watch of some sort but not an actual railroad chronometer.

I never tell them the truth. I leave their memories intact.

Memories are priceless, but watches are not.

Despite their high level of craftsmanship, most authentic railroad timepieces sell for between $500 and $1,500—the higher priced ones being gold-plated. Many gift shops found in the vicinity of railroad museums sell new facsimile pocket watches with a steam locomotive engraved on the back of the case. I used one made by Timex for years before giving it to my grandson. It was a great ten-dollar timepiece. Of course, it lacked fine accuracy, but I was only riding the train, not running it.

young daughters taking piano lessons. The girls were doing quite well, and their dad had me out to tune and service the piano several times a year.

Then, dad lost his job. Every few months, I would phone and see if his employment situation had improved and to see if he was ready to have me come out to take care of the piano.

Things did not improve as more than a year passed. I called him a few weeks before Christmas and insisted that he allow me to come and take care of the piano at no charge. I knew how much his daughters enjoyed playing the piano, and I was also concerned that the instrument was deteriorating.

We agreed on a date.

When I arrived, he was hard at work decorating the family Christmas tree. We chatted as we both worked at our separate tasks, and he told me how much he appreciated my kindness. He shared that his mortgage was many payments behind and that he was hiding his car in a neighbor’s garage to fend off the repo man.

A little later, he unpacked a carton containing Lionel trains and began setting them up under the Christmas tree. Being a lifelong train collector, I immediately noticed that he had some extremely valuable items. I asked him if the trains held any sentimental attachment for him, and he informed me that they had belonged to an uncle who years ago gave them to him rather than trash them. I gave him the name and address of a reputable train dealer I knew just a few miles away and urged him to get an offer on the trains.

He called me a few days later to tell me he was sending me a check for my piano work because the dealer paid him enough to catch up on all his bills plus a few thousand dollars to spare! Lionel trains had come to the rescue.

He called me again just after the new year to tell me that one of the many places he had sought employment hired him and he was back to work.

Name This Famous Person

by Mike McLeod

Aug. 1, 1944—Tuesday No one knows Anne’s better side, and that’s why most people can’t stand me.

Oh, I can be an amusing clown for an afternoon, but after that, everyone’s had enough of me to last a month. Actually, I’m what a romantic movie is to a profound thinker—a mere diversion, a comic interlude, something that is soon forgotten…. –Diary of a Young Girl, by Anne Frank, p. 375 Frog Hollow - Antiques & Unique Items

#4 Public Square Bowman, Georgia 706-318-7436 www.froghollowantiques.com

This was a part of Anne Frank’s last entry in her diary.

Seventy-one years later, that talkative, Germany-born Jewish girl is as well known as the famous movie stars of the 1930s and ‘40s she adored, and it is highly unlikely that she will ever be forgotten. Diary of a Young Girl has sold 31 million copies in 67 languages.

In her final diary entry, there was no hint of Anne thinking that she, her family and the four other people hiding with them would be discovered. Yet, three days later on the morning of Friday, Aug. 4, 1944, SS Sergeant Karl Silberbauer and several Dutch security personnel arrived at the building in Amsterdam where Anne’s family had been hiding for two years. The Nazis were tipped off. Although circumstantial evidence has implicated several people, no one has been indicted for collaborating with the Nazis in the arrest of the Franks and the others. Seven of the eight arrested died in the death camps. Anne’s father Otto was the only one who survived.

Before the war, Otto Frank saw the storm clouds on the horizon and spirited his family away from their home in Germany to Holland. He tried to get his family out of Europe, but declarations of war between Germany and the United States ended his chance of getting visas. He was left with only one viable option—go into hiding.

Otto prepared for about a year for their disappearance.

With the aid of a few close co-workers, he prepared rooms on two floors and in an attic in the huge office building/warehouse of Opekta, the company where Otto worked as managing

$1,435 (27 bidders, 10 bids): Cut Tin Halloween Jack-O-Lantern Candle Holder on Wood Pole. A very scarce late-19th to early-20th century antique Halloween cut tin jack-o-lantern on a wooden pole used for a light for kids while they trick or treat. A candle is placed inside for a light.

DBA: Halloween is thought to have originated as a Celtic festival of Samhain, when people would ward off roaming ghosts by lighting bonfires and wearing costumes so the dead would not recognize them. In the eighth century, Pope Gregory II designated November 1 as All Saints’ Day, which incorporated some of the Samhain traditions. The evening before was All Hallow’s Eve, later called Halloween. (In 1000 A.D., November 2 was made All Soul’s Day.) In Colonial America, Halloween was celebrated primarily by harvest celebrations and stories of the dead.

Trick or treating was thought to have originated with the Irish immigrants and English/Irish customs in the mid-19th century. On Halloween, to keep ghosts away from their houses, people would place bowls of food outside their homes to prevent the ghosts from entering.

Around 1900, Halloween molded into a celebration more about harvest festivals and less about ghosts and pranks and was for young and old alike. It became a child-centered event with the children dressing in costumes and asking for candy around 1950.

The jack-o’-lantern is an Irish custom. The fable goes like this: a drunken farmer named Jack tricked the devil, resulting in him being turned away from both heaven and hell after he died. As he was forced to wander around Purgatory, Jack made a lantern from a turnip and a lump of coal that the devil tossed him from hell. When the Irish came to America, they substituted pumpkins, since turnips were scarce.

This is probably a parade lantern.

And this is the going rate for a circa 1900 jack-o’-lantern parade pumpkin.

$212 (24 bids, 9 bidders): Large Folk Art Halloween, Painted Lobster Claw, Witches & Warlock Ornament. By the age of the cloth hats and the painted surface, I figure these two folk art lobster claw ornaments are from the early 20th century. You can see holes at the top of the dark grayish-black linen hats, showing these ornaments were hung.

Including the hat, the larger claw measures 15 inches tall by 6 inches wide, and the smaller claw is 14 inches tall by 4.75 inches wide. (Photo, courtesy of eBay seller wwolst12.)

Have been electrified, one cracked lens, looks like a replacement; dimensions 20 inches x 6 inches, 5 lbs. Each has a brass mounting but not sure if original.

(Photo, courtesy of eBay seller antiqatony.)

DBA: These are somewhat rare, and I could only find one selling at retail. The price was close to the eBay price received. At auction, I found them selling for much less. Compared to most auction prices, the seller got a deal.

“The firm’s name is A. P. DeVoursney and G.A. Ortmann, and they manufactured nothing but first-class goods, namely coach, hearse, landau, T-cart, buggy, phaeton, etc., lamps; carriage-mouldings of all sizes and designs, either in gold, silver, brass, or German silver; also nameplates, nut-caps, etc. Fire apparatus signals and lanterns are specialties with this enterprising firm. Bent, beveled and flat plate glass is a very important part of the business, as well as metal spinning in all its branches. In fact, they claim to have the most complete facility for turning out work by any establishment in the country.”(Taken from Google books, Finance & Industry: The New York Stock Exchange 1886, Page 219.) $3,150 (23 bids, 7 bidders): Man in the Moon Board Game McLoughlin Brothers, Antique Game 1901. Very rare 1901 McLoughlin Brothers Man in the Moon game. It features a full-color, lithographed, bright yellow moon with a man's head. Box is in sound condition with a clean playing field.

(Photo: eBay seller oxfordmagic.)

DBA: For reasons that I do not know (as I spend little time playing board games), this game sells for more money than the other board games from the same era. A retail guide places this at $3,400. I did find some selling at auction for much less, but I cannot verify the condition of those. The game is like checkers, except that instead of jumping an opponent to capture it, a player must surround the piece on two sides. The object is to not become the “man in the moon.” The game was made in two versions, one with a very decorative box and one in a plain box. It is circa 1900. All considered, I believe the seller got a great deal, because the only other prices that I could find were in retail situations.

Name this Famous Person Continued from Page 6 director. (Opekta made and distributed pectin used in jam

Otto stored a huge amount of canned food in the Annex beforehand, and while they were in hiding, office assistant Miep Gies (pronounced “Meep Geese”; she passed away on Jan. 11, 2010) regularly purchased fresh food for them with black market ration cards. The others who aided the Franks were Victor Kluger, Johannes Kleiman and Bep Voskuijl (pronounced “BĔp Fōze-kowl.”)

The website AnneFrank.org features an excellent computer-animated tour—interspersed with actual photos—of Anne’s “Secret Annex,” as she called it.

Nov. 19, 1942 Countless friends and acquaintances have been taken off to a dreadful fate. Night after night, green and gray military vehicles cruise the streets.

I don’t mean to make light of this; it’s much too tragic for that.

Franks invited four other people to hide with them. They didn’t have to do this, but out of compassion, they attempted to save four other people.

While in hiding, the families had to whisper to avoid detection. When workmen entered the building to make repairs, all of them were forced to remain still and quiet, sometimes for hours, until the workmen left. This was particularly difficult for chatterbox Anne.

As you can imagine, the accommodations became somewhat cramped for the eight people who lived in the Secret Annex 24/7. Add to this the tension of the constant possibility of discovery by the Nazis, and it is easy to understand why nerves frayed and tempers sometimes flared.

In addition to newspapers and movie magazines (specifically brought to Anne), the eight in hiding were kept informed of the news and the war’s progress by listening to a radio in a company office. The group was ecstatic when they learned of the D-Day Invasion that occurred on June 6, 1944, and they were confident that Holland would be liberated by October of that year. Unfortunately, that did not occur until May 5, 1945.

During their arrest on Aug. 4, 1944, the families’ valuables were confiscated. Sergeant Silberbauer needed something to put them in so he grabbed Otto Frank’s leather briefcase. Opening it, he unknowingly found Anne Frank’s diary inside—she stored it there for safekeeping. For a brief moment, the Nazi sergeant held the fate of Anne Frank’s diary in his hands. Not knowing of its great importance to history and future generations, he dumped it and the other papers in the briefcase onto the floor.

Looking back, it is safe to say he probably wished he had left the valuables and taken the diary instead. Many years later, Silberbauer said, “I bought the little book last week to see if I am in it. But I am not. Maybe I should have picked it up off the floor.”1

At the same time, two of Otto Frank’s co-workers, Victor Kluger and Johannes Kleiman, were also arrested. Miep Gies

and Bep Voskuijl were not taken into custody since they were not considered to be authority figures in the office. Kleiman was released from imprisonment after a few months due to his poor health. Kluger was sent to forced labor camps, but escaped at the end of March 1945 during an air raid. Making his way back to his home, he hid there for a month until Holland was liberated.

After the families were hauled off, Miep Gies went to the Annex and picked up Anne’s diary and the papers. She saved them and returned them to Otto Frank after the war.

The Frank Family and the others were sent to Auschwitz, and then Anne and her sister Margot were transported to the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in northern Germany. Some believe Anne died just before the camp was liberated; however, new research points to both sisters probably dying in February of 1945 from typhus, probably six or eight weeks before the liberation on April 15, 1945. Typhus is a lice-born disease that usually kills its victims in less than two weeks once symptoms appear; Anne and Margot were seen with those symptoms in early February.

The following is a glimpse of what Anne experienced: “‘Days at the camp were filled with terror and dread,’ witnesses said. The sisters stayed in a section of the overcrowded camp with no lighting, little water and no latrine. They slept on liceridden straw, and violent storms shredded the tents, according to the researchers. Like the other prisoners, the sisters endured long hours at roll call. Her classmate, Nannette Blitz, recalled seeing Anne there in December 1944: ‘She was no more than a skeleton by then. She was wrapped in a blanket; she couldn’t bear to wear her clothes anymore because they were crawling with lice.’”2

Along with Anne and Margot, 35,000 prisoners in the camp died of starvation, typhus and other diseases during a period of just three and one-half months from January to April 15, 1945 when the 11th British Armoured Division liberated the

camp. In all, about 70,000 people died in Bergen-Belsen.

Collectibles relating to Anne Frank are few, and most concern her book. Three first edition copies of Anne Frank, The Diary of a Young Girl: June 14, 1942-August 1, 1944 in Dutch, Hebrew and Yiddish were sold for $3,750 (including buyer’s premium) on Nov. 25, 2014 by Kedem Auction House LTD in Jerusalem, Israel.

One lot of personal effects relating to Anne Frank did come to auction in 1988. A group of two letters, a postcard and two passport photos sent in 1940 by Anne and Margot to pen pals in Iowa sold for $165,000.

Few people know Anne Frank was a postcard collector. In one of the letters sold, she stated that she had a collection of “about 800.”3 Before going into hiding, Otto Frank took Anne’s postcard collection to the Secret Annex so their hiding place would seem a little like home for his daughter.

Annelies Marie “Anne” Frank was born on June 12, 1929 in Frankfurt, Germany, and she died in February 1945 at the age of 15 in Bergen-Belsen. Despite her firm belief that she would never be remembered, Anne Frank will never be forgotten.

May 22, 1944 It’s really a wonder that I haven’t dropped all my ideals, because they seem so absurd and impossible to carry out.

Yet I keep them, because in spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart. *** Anne Frank was correctly identified by: Jean Fricht of Jasper, Ga.; Julie Kimbrell of Old School Antique Mall in Sylva, N.C.; Jim Pruett of Eastbrook Flea Market and Antique Mall in Montgomery, Ala.; Jeff Leibowitz of York, S.C.; Randy Robinson of Springville, Ala., Ted Carlton of Utah, Caryl Ponder of Carriage House Antiques of Bradenton, Fla., Dr. Scott and Carolyn Brown of Montgomery, Ala., Lucy Way of Knoxville, Tenn., Florence Anne Berna, Visitor Center Manager of the Roswell Convention Spend an hour or a day at one of the Best Antique Malls in the Country and Visitors Bureau, Debra Anderson of Jersey, Ga., and • 45,000 sq. ft. one-story facility • 300+ dealers • La Petite Tearoom Sherron Lawson of Roswell, • Located near the Pottery Factory and the outlet centers Ga. 500 Lightfoot Road • Williamsburg, VA 23188 ------------------From I-64 take exit 234 east onto 199, exit at Mooretown Road West.

It was about 1983 when we purchased our first shooting gallery target. It was a blue row of white doves that we found at the Home in Indiana show in Indianapolis. Years later, we realized that what we had was a row of birds from a much larger rack produced by the WF Mangels Company of Coney Island fame. What drew us to this purchase was not that these were targets but rather that they were figural cast iron—an early passion which still exists today.

We have been collectors all of our adult lives, first as collectors of contemporary art and sculpture that in the late 1970s and early 1980s was actually somewhat affordable.

When we moved to the country in the early 1980s, our interests evolved into an appreciation for early painted furniture, smalls and other forms of Americana. The target and other eyecatching arcade forms, such as the penny pitch, bottle, ball toss knockdown and game wheel, were natural adjuncts and complements to our other collecting interests.

As with most collectors we have known, the chase becomes all-consuming. Every variation, no matter how slight, must be found and coveted. It is simply not enough to own one dove, owl, rooster, dog or cat. No—every example is prized, and why not own 50, 100 or more cast iron knockdowns of birds of varying shapes and sizes when probably one will do?

The lack of space to display the newest "treasure" is never a consideration as there is always room in the attic, garage, basement or mini-warehouse.

One of the most common clichés is that it is all about the

chase. It is not the "find" of a heretofore unknown form (that is anticlimactic at least to us), but rather the heart-thumping drive in a car or plane flight to an auction, show or home to see what awaits. Indeed, we recall reading somewhere that a book collector once summarized his collecting passion as, “The finding was perhaps more rewarding than the having.” And so it has been with us.

For us, the progression from contemporary art and sculpture to the world of the target, arcade and painted American furniture and accessories has been a natural evolution. After all, it is the beauty of the form and condition of the object that is common to all collectors. And what is more natural than being attracted to bulls eyes and other arcade forms when you have collected the likes of Jasper Johns and Kenneth Noland with the bulls eye as common imagery, Frank Stella and his early concentric squares to Andy Warhol, Wayne Thiebaud and Claes Oldenburg for their Pop Art imagery? They all grew up during the 1930s and 1940s when the arcade was still enormously popular. Could their later imagery have been influenced by their appreciation and fascination, as others have been, by the gallery and arcade?

The American shooting gallery and arcade, dating from the third quarter of the 19th century and having taken its inspiration from European counterparts, is for the most part from an era of American culture and entertainment of a bygone period. Shooting galleries and arcades of the permanent variety on midways, boardwalks and in amusement parks as well as those in bars, saloons and stores, and the portable varieties experienced at circuses and county and state fairs and transported behind trucks, using live ammunition, are a thing of the past. (Although occasionally, a gallery surfaces such as those at Coney Island, Reynolda House in Winston Salem, N.C., or the Sandy Chanty Restaurant in Geneva on the Lake, Ohio.) Lifestyles have changed and real estate prices have gotten too high, and as the result of two world wars that needed the iron for munitions, families moving to the suburbs, and greater mobility for travel and entertainment, this truly American form of entertainment has largely disappeared.

Our collecting passion (some might say obsession) in this area has been accompanied by our intellectual curiosity as to

who made the targets and arcade objects. This curiosity has manifested itself in our searching out and acquiring numerous catalogs, photographs, postcards, trade cards and other ephemera. Until our book Step Right Up! Classic American Target and Arcade Forms was published in 2014, there was no reference book that could provide this type of information.

From our research, we have determined that there were approximately 20 known American manufacturers of the shooting gallery. It is unknown how many manufacturers made the related arcade objects because, for the most part, these objects had no identifying markings. The same is generally true for the shooting gallery target. Except for CW Parker of Abilene and Leavenworth, Kansas, and William Wurfflein of Philadelphia, who almost always marked their targets, target forms also had no identifying marks. Unless one has access to the type of ephemera that we have accumulated, it would be nearly impossible to identify a maker.

The most prominent of the American target manufacturers was WF Mangels of Coney Island who operated as a manufacturer of shooting gallery and other amusement devices. Other prominent manufacturers were: CW Parker, WF Wurfflein, JT Dickman of San Francisco and four Chicago manufacturers, HC Evans, Emil Hoffmann, FC Mueller and AJ Smith.

In general, American target forms were small in size, made of cast iron, depicted animals and were conveyor-belt driven or stationary. Many were politically incorrect, such as the Indian, baby, Mexican or African-American. European targets, to the contrary, were large and highly detailed, made of sheet metal, hand painted, intricately designed and depicting humorous everyday scenes. None were marked to indicate a maker.

Mangels’ targets are the most common and easiest to find, at least in the more common forms such as ducks, birds and geometric shapes. The targets manufactured by Parker, Wurfflein and Dickman are, for some reason, the rarest with few examples surviving. Those manufactured by Parker and Wurfflein were the most influenced by the European tradition in terms of subject matter, design and construction. Almost without exception, the manufacturers’ catalogs depicted artist renderings of galleries, targets and other arcade objects and

Shops of St. Petersburg...“The Jewel of Florida’s Gulf Coast” There's an old saying about St. Petersburg, Fla.; People who live there love it; businesses that located there stay; and visitors who go there to shop and play want to come back again and again. How true! St. Petersburg and Pinellas County offer an unequaled environment for work and play. Wonderful weather and miles of sandy beaches make it a magnet for people worldwide.

St. Petersburg's two strongest selling points are sunshine and shopping. The former can be enjoyed virtually year-round; the latter comes in the form of malls, factory outlet stores, discount chains, specialty shops, membership warehouses, and —oh, yes— a cavalcade of wonderful antiques and collectibles stores. The advertisers on this page offer a taste of what we mean.

Getting to St. Petersburg isn't hard to do. The city's major thoroughfare is I-275, which runs north and south and connects to the Sunshine Skyway Bridge and Manatee County (another mecca for shoppers on the antique trail). I-275 also connects with 1-4 going east to Orlando from Tampa and I-75 heading north. U.S. 19 is an important northsouth link that runs the length of the county.

A visit to St. Petersburg will leave you wanting more, no matter how long you stay. And it's easy to fan out and explore.

Tampa — a city with it's own identity, cultural pulse and antiques and collectibles shops—is right next door. And Orlando, with its many theme parks, is a short drive away. Don't you think it's time to visit, vacation and shop in St. Petersburg? It's truly the Jewel of Florida's Gulf Coast!

Mathematician Gordon Welchman also collaborated on the construction of the Enigma-cracking machine, which they called the “Bombe,” or “bomb.” This was derived from the name the Polish intelligence gave their machine, the “cryptologic bomb.” Turing’s machine was not called “Christopher” as portrayed in The Imitation Game.

Various models of the Enigma were used by the German Army, Navy and Luftwaffe Air Force. The Bletchley Park team cracked all of them, including models that were updated during the war. It has been said that this team’s work shortened the war in Europe by two to four years. Its efforts were so secret and of such importance to national security that they were not revealed until the 1970s.

The movie U-571 starring Matthew McConaughey was actually misleading. It depicted an American submarine crew capturing an Enigma from a German submarine. In fact, it was a British crew. In all, 15 Enigmas were captured during the war: 13 by the British, one by the Canadians and one by the Americans.

An Enigma I (a later model from 1943) was sold in July 2015 by Sotheby’s in London for $232,000 including buyer’s premium. It was estimated at $50,000-$70,000. Alan Turing’s journal from 1942-1944, during the time he worked on the Enigma, sold for $1,025,000 at Bonham’s in April 2015. It focused mostly on foundations of computer science, which was cutting-edge, sci-fi technology at the time. Turing wrote many papers, including some on artificial intelligence.

Julie Kimbrell of The Old School Antique Mall in Sylva, N.C., Jeff Leibowitz of York, S.C., Ted Carlton of Utah, Dr. Scott and Carolyn Brown of Montgomery, Ala., and Sherron Lawson of Roswell, Ga. correctly identified the Enigma machine.

The Shops of Nashville, TN Nashville, Tennessee was founded in 1779 by a group of Overmountain Men and named after the American Revolutionary War hero Francis Nash, but today everybody knows it as Music City, with its legendary country music venues like the Grand Ole Opry House, The Country Music Hall of Fame & Museum and the historic Ryman Auditorium. The nice thing about Nashville is that it's a major city (the

4th largest in the Southeast and the 2nd largest in Tennessee, after Memphis), but it's small enough that you don't get that big-city, overwhelmed feeling.

A lot of the action is in The District, downtown.

And that's good news for people who want to have fun in Nashville and enjoy its legendary honky-tonks, dive bars and dance halls, while being mindful that it's also a great place to

shop for antiques. GasLamp Antiques (and GasLamp Too) is one of the South's biggest and best places to find fine antiques and furnishings, artisan, industrial, mid-century, vintage, modern and more, all in more than an acre of climate-controlled space.

Metrolina Antique and Vintage Market September Show Attendance Up By 21%

On Sept. 3-6, the beautiful September weather brought a flock of fall shoppers to the Metrolina Antique & Vintage Market in Charlotte, N.C. Many were carrying assorted school supplies to place in the donation barrel at the front of Building A. The theme was "A Learning Experience," and the show invited teachers as guests and encouraged dealers to reach out to younger buyers. "It was fantastic to see so many new and younger faces in the crowd," said George Shivar, American history dealer. "It's fun to share knowledge with the next generation."

As the numbers came in, it became apparent why so many dealers were smiling: paid attendance was up 21 percent and assorted free outreaches also increased attendance by another 11 percent. Members of Whirlwind Creative, the show's new marketing team, were seen taking pictures and videos to add to the website and Facebook pages. They were also present to lead a conversation on social media at Friday's "Cookie Club" meeting, a device designed to encourage and enlighten antique dealers with new (and old) techniques and tricks to improve business.

"After seeing this demonstration, I feel that social media truly is the way to go," said Linda Williams, a dealer from Zebulon, N.C. Joy Shivar, show manager, commented, "I was

so happy to see such interest in the Cookie Club. We plan to do it at every show."

The Metrolina Antique and Vintage Market will be sharing the show grounds in October with the American Bead and Jewelry Show. October is National Decorator Month, and plans include dealer seminars on decorating tricks to create a cozy cottage as the cooler months approach.

Take A Shot at Collecting Arcade Targets, Continued from center spread, p.4 devices rather than actual photographs. Many of the forms depicted have never surfaced, either because they were never actually produced or didn’t survive.

Collecting in this area has produced a number of unanswered questions. Why have only a few Mangels and one HW Turpening of California gallery survived?

Why are there no known photographs or other evidence of actual Parker, Wurfflein or Chicago Manufacturer galleries having actually been produced? Why are there numerous Mangels A Cowboy target by WF and Chicago Manufacturer Mangels of Coney Island, cast iron, 28 x 53.5 inches. forms surviving but so few identifiable Parker, Wurfflein, Dickman and Terpening forms which have survived? Why do Parker targets for the most part have the same unpainted patina? Why do so many of the Wurfflein targets seem to have original painted surface? Why do so many forms show up in the catalogs of different manufacturers? Was it that the copyright laws were just not as developed 100 years ago so that infringement was less of an issue, or did the various manufacturers sell to one another or use subcontractors who sold the forms to multiple users? Why are so many forms of a common theme? Unfortunately, no oral histories or business records have survived to answer these questions.

Luck has played a large part in our collecting in this area.

But knowledge is king! Not every bird or duck is common.

Many forms that on first glance appear to be identical are actually different, resulting in significant differences in value.

Our experience has shown us that common forms are often overpriced, while rare forms are often undervalued. Forms are often misrepresented as to rarity, condition and maker, as well as to whether they are actually target or arcade objects at all.

Fortunately, few forms have been reproduced so far but with the advent of the 3D printer and other modern technology, as well as an increase in value, reproductions will probably surface in the future.

So, what should one look for? Condition and rarity are the most important considerations. Don’t expect objects to have original surface or to be in pristine condition and without flaws.

After all, they shouldn’t be, as these objects were shot at and thrown at countless times over countless seasons. These objects were subjected to abuse and were repainted and repaired constantly. Some damage is expected and acceptable, but major damage will substantially detract from the value and even the advisability of acquisition.

Collecting targets and arcade objects is a specialized area.

There is a crossover appeal for not only the target and arcade object collector but also for the collector of cast iron, folk art, Americana and advertising and ephemera. If you collect in one or more of these areas, collecting targets and arcade objects may just be of interest to you.

--------------Step Right Up! Into the Colorful World of the American Shooting Gallery and Arcade. Richard and Valerie Tucker have been collecting American contemporary art and folk art since their marriage in 1966. Their love of painted surfaces inspired their initial interest in collecting figural cast iron, including shooting gallery targets and other arcade forms. Friends along the way encouraged them to write this book and share their knowledge with others who had the same regard for this art form. Richard and Valerie live in Boulder, Colorado, with their two cats, CJ (Bobo) and Willie.
