Audubon’s “Small Work” Reprinted in part from an article by David Bloom in Freeman’s International View An 1826 portrait of John James Audubon by John Syme (1795–1861).

Carolina Parrot or ‘Parrakeet,’ as the work is titled John James Audubon’s Birds of America has become the holy grail of American books. The original double elephant folio1 was the culmination of over a decade of field observations and drawings, but the hefty 1830 subscription price of $1,000 (nearly $20,000 today) meant the work was the preserve of Audubon’s most wealthy clients.

The artist was keen to produce a “small work,” a more accessible and affordable octavo version of his masterpiece. This seven-volume edition was published between 1840 and 1844 in New York and Philadelphia, this time containing 500 hand-colored lithographic plates, in comparison to the earlier folio’s 435 engraved aquatints. This $100 edition (almost $1,800 today) proved a great success and was followed by several more

***

David Bloom, Vice President and head of the Books, Maps & Manuscripts Department at Freeman’s, recently provided more insight into these two versions of Birds of America.

In what way was Audubon’s octavo version different from the double elephant folio?

David Bloom: In essence, the octavo was a popular edition in which the size of the plates was reduced to 10 x 6 inches, each from sheets of roughly 40 x 27 inches. Audubon, with the aid of one of his sons, used an optical mechanism to scale the

Lakewood 400 Named to Huffington Post and USA Today’s List of Top U.S. Antiques Markets The Lakewood 400 Antiques Market in Cumming, Ga., was recently named by the Huffington Post as one of the country’s top markets in an article titled “The Only Guide You’ll Ever Need,” a posting that’s rapidly gone viral as antique shoppers everywhere look for the best. It was also included in USA Today’s “10 Best Flea Markets for Finding Vintage Treasures” in the May 16, 2014 edition.

Featured in the Huffington Post article as an “…upscale market with vintage, and, yes, antique furnishings and accessories,” Lakewood was included in a highly-selective short list of top markets across the U.S. including the Chicago Antique Market, Brimfield Antique and Collectibles Show in Brimfield, Mass., the Texas Antique Weekend in Round Top, Texas, the Rose Bowl Flea Market (with 2,500 vendors) in Pasadena, Calif., the Alameda Point Antiques Faire in Alameda, Calif., and the Brooklyn Flea in Brooklyn, N.Y.

“We are thrilled to be included in such great company,” said Ed and Barbara Spivia, co-owners and managers of Lakewood 400, “and we know without a doubt that this recognition comes directly from the quality of our dealers and their merchandise. We put on a lively, fun show in a terrific and welcoming facility, but it’s the dealers who keep the customers streaming through those doors.”

Lakewood has seen consistent growth for the past five years, including increased dealer participation, steady rebookings, attendance and – most importantly – sales. Last year, the Spivias expanded and remodeled a new permanent hall – giving Lakewood a total of eight halls and 185 indoor permanent spaces along with an additional 315 indoor spaces.

Lakewood also built out a new, fun Courtyard full of a whole new array of unusual items, to go along with the outside Veranda spaces.

Lakewood 400 Antiques Market will always strive to be an upscale market known for quality and diversity of merchandise and a dealer- and customer-friendly environment. The Spivias appreciate the recognition of the Huffington Post and look forward to a bright future.

The Lakewood 400 Antiques Market is open the third weekend of the month (Fri. 9-5, Sat. 9-6, Sun. 10-4) at 1321 Atlanta Hwy., Cumming, Ga. Info: 770-889-3400 or LakewoodAntiques.com.

Audubon's "Small Work" Continued from Inside Front Cover illustrations down. It was executed in hand-colored lithography which could produce large runs rather than hand-colored engravings that produced about 200 copies of each plate. It was first issued from 1840 to 1844 in seven volumes containing 500 plates at a cost of $100 per set, as opposed to the $1,000 per set cost for the double elephant folio.

Philadelphia as a teenager and shortly thereafter completed his formal education at Akiba Hebrew Academy. A period of Bohemian wanderings ensued. While others followed utopian or mystical visions, David found himself drawn forward by the more familiar mysteries of the printed page. The mysteries of one book led to another, and then another. What they revealed to David was not merely the light of his inner self or the greater knowledge of the external world, but also the quotidian complexities of the book trade. Labor as an apprentice in the service of experienced booksellers as well as private and institutional libraries followed. The central role played in the Philadelphia book trade by the auction rooms at Freeman’s soon became apparent and began to exercise its fascination on Mr. Bloom. Awarded with the title of Vice President in 2003, David has been the head of Freeman’s Books, Maps & Manuscripts Department for over 20 years.

The Shops of Historic Senoia, Georgia

Senoia, Ga. (pronounced Se-noy -- rhymes with boy or toy) is said to be 100 years and 35 miles south of Atlanta.

Home of the 2010 and 2012 Southern Living Idea Houses, Senoia is also the backdrop for over 25 feature films, including Fried Green Tomatoes and Driving Miss Daisy, as well as the popular TV shows Drop Dead Diva and The Walking Dead. Downtown Senoia was the site of the “safe haven� fictional town known as Woodbury. There are regular movie tours on the weekends that take you to many of the locations where these shows were filmed.

Named for Princess Senoyah, mother of the Chief of the Creek Indian Nation (William McIntosh), Senoia has a historic district filled with over 100 historic homes and churches. Main Street features well established antique shops, two bed ‘n’ breakfast inns and an eclectic selection of one-of-a-kind gift shops. Take I-85 south to exit #61 (Fairburn/Peachtree City) and turn left onto Hwy. 74. Drive about 18 miles, crossing over Hwy 54. Continue on Hwy 74 until you come to a traffic light at Rockaway Rd. Turn right onto Rockaway Road, which becomes Main Street. To learn more about Senoia, follow us on facebook at enjoysenoia.

Scrapping up the Past: A View of the 19th Century through Craft

Jessica Munday-McGee

The amount of news and pictures being printed and distributed in the 19th century led to a great breadth and depth of collecting across economic classes, professions, localities and beliefs. The discovery of lithography and the invention of the steam-driven printing press coupled with a wide availability of paper propelled the forthcoming obsession with news and pictures. In an effort to stay informed on scientific advances, neighborhood gossip, emerging trends and the latest news from other countries, excessive attention was paid to prints and clippings of all sorts. Even advertisements were saved and used later as decorations in the home or added to a scrapbook with other similar clippings. The most successful marketers caught on quickly to the collection craze and produced trading cards that urged buyers to collect every card in the set.

One of the proudest ways for a family to display their collection was on a folding screen. Scrap screens are intriguing as they reflect volumes of the most divergent tastes and interests of the time. Pictures used on screens often depicted the lifestyles of high class society. This reveals a romantic notion that appealed to those of lesser wealth living in a different class. While at the Scott Antiques Markets in Atlanta, Ga., I was fortunate enough to come across a few prime examples of screen decorating from the 19th century.

Upon initial examination, the first screen I photographed merely seemed to reflect the code of dress that was then so popular. However, upon closer inspection and some research, I came to find that a few of the prints were actually of the famous and the revered elite during the latter part of the century. For instance, British explorer Sir Henry Morton Stanley earned himself top space in a collage of other prominent figures.

Stanley was a Welsh-born American that served on both sides in the American Civil War. Eventually, he worked for the New York Herald which commissioned him to search for the African Congo explorer David Livingstone after he had not been heard from for some time. Stanley found Livingstone and is said to have greeted him with the now famous quotation, “Mister Livingstone, I presume?”

Upon Livingstone’s death, Stanley continued in his footsteps exploring the Congo region. Unfortunately for the Congolese, Stanley also sought King Leopold II of Belgium for assistance in developing the region. King Leopold II was more than willing. Eventually, Leopold’s greed for ivory and rubber led to the slave labor and genocide of the native inhabitants.

The cut-out to the lower right of Sir Henry Morton Stanley is, of my strong opinion, believed to be that of King Leopold II. It should be noted that Sir Henry Morton Stanley was indeed against slave trade.

Another interesting screen encountered at the Scott Antique Markets displayed the Conway Castle of Wales.

Conway Castle was built along with several other castles during the reign of Edward I in an effort to extinguish Welsh uprisings. The castle was completed in 1287. In the early 15th century, the Welsh finally captured it and held it for a very short occupation. It was inhabited again during the English Civil War but soon afterwards fell to negligence.

The construction of nearby railroads and bridges led to increased interest of the castle during the 19th century when it attracted artists and other visitors that encouraged care and

reconstruction. Today, it is a popular attraction open to host events as well as for public tour.

On this same screen is a scene titled, The Widow’s Mite.

As the biblical tale is told, Jesus watches one day as the wealthy citizens casually throw their large contributions into the temple treasury; yet, a very poor widow comes along and only puts in two small copper coins, not much at all. Jesus explains to his disciples that the widow has put in the most.

Where the rich gave from their great wealth, the widow gave all that she had. The donation of the rich was proportionately less in comparison.

Ephemera is marginal compared to other more imperative paper sources like rare books, diaries, documents and letters; however, they chronicle just as much critical information concerning the time in which they were created. Although such screens are relatively rare, I am told they are seen often at the Scott Antique Markets. These two screens provided a window into the 19th century, regardless how cloudy the panes of history had become over time.

Nevertheless, it is still important to heed caution when making assumptions about 19th century social values and norms through the prints collected. As explained by Bryan F. Le Beau in Art in the Parlor, some prints “…did not necessarily picture America as it existed, but rather as it was imagined—how their patrons imagined it to be or to have been, or wanted it to be.” It is, however, pertinent to look upon such ephemera as a highly valuable source for the study of social history. In many cases, pictures can confirm events or compliment written accounts. Prints, scraps and clippings are both a cultural artifact and a research tool for new scholarship.

Sir Henry Morton Stanley crowns this particular collection of prominent figures from the latter part of the century.

What's Selling on eBay?

By Mike McLeod and Deborah Abernethy $301 (18 bids): Large Rare Guerin 1886 Photograph Black Americana Star Guitar Minstrel. I realize this large 19th century photograph has some problems, including toning to the outside corners and a serious tear that travels up and through the second musician on the right.

There also are a couple of smaller tears in the lower left-hand corner. Normally, I would not list a photograph with such damage; however, this is a very rare black Americana photograph. I was not able to find one other example anywhere on the internet. Signed in the lower right-hand corner, “Old Kentuck, Copyright by T. W. Guerin, 1886.”

Fitz W. Guerin (1846-1903) was a St. Louis photographer and Medal of Honor winner during the Civil War. He was a portrait photographer, especially of children, but he also took gentleman photographs of nudes.

This large 17.5-inch by 24-inch photograph depicts five black gentlemen in the middle of a song. You can almost hear them playing, and the gentlemen in the center is singing at the top of his lungs. He is wearing medals on his vest and holding a small strange horn with an attached bell. There is another unusual instrument in thisGlory.Qrt. photograph.6.14_SEA Check out the starMorning

shaped guitar of the second gentlemen on the right. Wouldn’t you love to find that guitar in an attic somewhere?

Even with the damage, this large 1886 photograph is quite impressive. You rarely find early photographs depicting people moving or singing. (Photo: eBay seller wwolst12.)

DBA: There are several collectible areas to explore here. Black memorabilia is a hot area of collection, but photographs are also very collectible. Fitz W. Guerin was a gifted photographer, and many of his works were very carefully staged and executed rather than “snapped.” I found a small photograph of a child by Fitz W. Guerin that sold for $650. If this photograph had been in better condition, it would have sold for far more.

Guerin was known for his photographs of children and society people. He made quite a bit of money also for his nude photography. Although not noted for black photography, this area is so collectible, I feel that a collector would want this as much as his children or society photos. $17,778 (23 bids): 1891 Brooks Backstrike Typewriter.

This may be the rarest of the 1890s short-lived backstrike types which included the Fitch, Waverly, North and the Brooks. I have only seen one other Brooks at auction.

This one is in good working condition with age wear. It looks to be complete and works pretty smoothly. Its ribbon is dry. Overall, this is really a great opportunity and certainly one for the serious collector. (Photo: eBay seller gypsiegirlz.)

DBA: This is a very early example of a typewriter. A backstrike typewriter has type bars in the rear which makes a problem of where to store the paper. There are only four companies that produced this style of typewriter: North, Waverly, Brooks and Fitch. Although this

style of typewriter was ultimately not successful, these collectible typewriters command the highest prices today; $17, 778 is not the highest price paid for a typewriter, but it is close to it. There are many collectors for this piece of equipment, but that doesn’t seem odd when you think of how the typewriter changed business in the world. One of the highest prices paid was for Edward Murrow’s WWII typewriter which sold for $12,000. So it’s not just the equipment that brings in the money or excitement.

There also is a light word written under the Omnibus logo, but I cannot make out what it says; thought it might be the drummer Bill Sleeper, but it doesn’t look like it. Details: This is a really cool and collectible piece I acquired from an elderly Texan collector that recently passed away. It is a true gem for a Monkees’ collector as Mike Nesmith (as he was called then) was preMonkees in 1963 and on his 2nd single.

The music is very “Byrds-y” in my opinion. Apparently, a Nesmith signature is not the easiest to acquire. (Photo: eBay seller 2gnarly4u.)

before the television show of that name in 1965. Michael Nesmith recorded music under the name Michael Blessing and Mike & John & Bill, so some items will not be recognized as being by Mike Nesmith. By 1970, the television show and group were no longer active. He has participated in several ventures with the Monkees in later years.

Anne Frank’s Marbles The JewishPress.com reported that in 1942, Anne Frank gave a tin of marbles to a non-Jewish neighbor Toosje Kupers, for safekeeping. “I’m worried about my marbles, because I’m scared they might fall into the wrong hands,” Anne told Kupers.

“Could you keep them for me for a little while?” Kupers remembered them last year and returned them to the Anne Frank Museum, along with a book and a tea set. Anne and her family were arrested in 1944.

Civil War Collector The

By John Sexton

Wondering about the value of a Civil War OVI token, 66th regiment. JT Strong was the sutler; Koethler the maker. Good for 10 cents. Small hole for safe keeping string. I know this token is rare (R9), but unknown on the value.

JS: Civil War sutler tokens are scarce and highly collected by a core of aficionados who compete in auction for rare and desirable examples in the best condition. Sutlers were civilian agents selling wares in Civil War camps often at very high prices. They typically sold tobacco, booze and food items which were sometimes scarce in camp.

Tokens were made by several manufacturers of other coinage substitutes, such as store cards and patriotic tokens.

There are many different tokens of different rarities, and yours with a rarity of 9 means only two or three are known to exist.

You have done your homework and found the pertinent data on this example.

The 66th Ohio was a 12th Army Corp unit originally in the eastern theater—later the 20th Corp through the Atlanta campaign—and had a good fighting history. The 66th had four Medal of Honor winners at the Battle of Chancellorsville. They lost a total of 245 men in the war, mostly to disease (143).

The “bible” of this collecting genre is Schenkman’s Civil War Tokens where the rarity of your token is cited as “9”. It is interesting that the example of your token in the book was recently sold by Steve Hayden Auction, August 31, 2013 for $2,000, but that example was graded EF (extremely fine).

Common tokens sell for less than $100, and rare examples can bring over $5,000. Rare examples in poor condition bring a fraction of those in high condition.

Shops of St. Petersburg. .“The Jewel of Florida’s Gulf Coast” Manatee County_Grp.08.13_SEA

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 north-south 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!

I would value your holed example, which would probably be graded very fine if not hole punched, at 30%-60%, so the potential price would be $600-$1,200 in my opinion. Auction is generally the best way to sell such items for the best results; maybe even on eBay it might fare well.

I am writing to obtain some information about an antique projectile currently in the possession of my uncle. We have no information about the piece, except that we think it could be a memento brought home by one of our ancestors from either the American Civil War or the Spanish-American War. It is about six and one-half inches in length.

We do know that my 2nd great-grandfather, Allen Walker Hamilton (07 November 1881 in Wheeling, Ohio County, West Virginia/16 March 1943 in Cadiz, Cadiz Township, Harrison County, Ohio), attended an all-male military academy in Wheeling, West Virginia, called The Linsly Institute (now The Linsly School) from a young age and that he was of age to serve in the Spanish-American War of 1898. We have not, however, located any military records for him.

Allen Walker Hamilton’s father Charles Perry Hamilton served for eight months during the Civil War as an ambulance driver for Colonel Boyden, who had charge of the hospital corps under General Sheridan, and was possibly a drummer boy in a Union regiment out of Wheeling, West Virginia.

My 3rd great-grandfather, Allen Walker Hamilton’s fatherin-law, George Washington Clark[e], Sr. served as a private in Captain John Carlin’s Battery “D” First West Virginia Light

Artillery Volunteers out of Wheeling, West Virginia. The projectile, along with several other items, were found in a trunk belonging to my 2nd great-grandmother, Allen Walker Hamilton’s wife and George Washington Clark[e], Sr.’s daughter. We are curious as to whether our projectile can be identified, and whether it is from the American Civil War or the Spanish-American War. Could it have been used in a weapon such as the 6-pounder, M1841 or the Light 12-pounder, M1857?

had a colorful record in the war, and a 2005 unit history was privately published by Linda Fluharty & Edward Phillips called Carlins Wheeling Battery, A History of Battery “D” 1st West Virginia Light Artillery.

The 1st West Virginia Light Artillery regiment lost 33 men who were killed or died of wounds; 131 men died of disease, accident or in prison. Total deaths were 164 men (from all 8 batteries).

Prices on non-excavated projectiles, such as this, can be found at Civil War shows for about $300.

JS: Your projectile is a three-inch in diameter Hotchkiss percussion shell made for the standard Union Civil War light artillery rifled Parrott or Ordnance rifles. Both were highly accurate, and both were part of Battery D of Peter Carlin’s 1st WV Light Artillery. There is an active group who reenact this Timeless Antiques.8th.H..12.08_SEA.indd fighting unit today.

The photograph shown here (by T. J. Powell) on the Carlin’s battery website shows accurately a Civil War gun crew which your ancestry George Washington Clark would have been part. The cannon in the photo is a three-inch Parrott rifle, the type of gun that fired your projectile. Your projectile appears with lots of patina and probably a souvenir of some action.

Name This Famous Antique

by Mike McLeod

American Gothic by Grant Wood is an iconic work of art akin to other iconic paintings, such as Campbell Soup

by Andy Warhol and the Persistence of Memory by Salvador Dali depicting melted clocks. It was created for an art competition at the Art Institute of Chicago in 1930 when Wood was about 39 years old. He won third place and $300 for his future icon, and the Institute soon purchased the painting.

The two people Wood used as models in American Gothic were his sister Nan Wood Graham and his dentist Dr. Byron McKeeby. They actually represent a father and his daughter in the painting, not a husband and wife as so many believe.

Ted Carlton of Utah, Pat Kimbrell of the Old School Antique Mall in Sylva, N.C., Scott and Carolyn Brown of Memories Flea An’Tique Mall in Prattville, Ala., and Teresa P. Bland correctly identified them.

Grant Wood was born on an Iowa farm on Feb. 3, 1891. His family later Pratville Pickers.Third.pg..10.11_SEA moved to Cedar Rapids after the death of his father. Wood’s artistic ability

eventually prodded him to make several trips to Europe to study the work of the great masters. It is said he applied the style of Flemish Renaissance art in the creation of American Gothic.1

An Iowa farmhouse with a gothic window inspired Wood to create a painting that has been loved, disparaged, copied and adapted by art aficionados, art critics, artists and ad agencies

around the world. Because of the daughter’s dour look in the painting and the severity of the father’s expression, many in the Midwest thought the painting was critical of them and their lifestyle. Others at that time saw this as a portrayal of strength in troubles times, particularly since the stock market had collapsed in 1929 and the country was in the Great Depression.

There is truth in both opinions. His models’ long faces and unhappy expressions were in harmony with the Gothic theme of the painting and could be interpreted as strength or mockery.

An interesting note: the pitchfork, which could be a symbol of honest labor or evil, is repeated on the bib of the father’s coveralls and upside down in the Gothic window of the house.2

Because his painting caused his sister to be heavily criticized, Wood painted a favorable, true-to-life portrait of her

in a modern dress and holding a chick and a plum, representing her softer, feminine side.3 The work is called Portrait of Nan.

Neither did American Gothic represent dentist McKeeby’s true nature: “…although Wood painted McKeeby as a stern Iowa farmer, the dentist was known as a live wire in that part of Iowa, a man who loved to speed around town in a red sports car.” 4

Grant Wood passed away at the age of 51 on Feb. 12, 1942 from pancreatic cancer. While he was a leader in the Regionalism style of art, he was not well accepted by art critics or highly successful during his lifetime. However, today, his work is held by more than 25 museums, educational institutions and the Smithsonian. More of his work can be seen in the Cedar Rapids Museum of Art and online at www.crma. org. His Corn Cob Chandelier for Iowa Corn Room is not to be missed. (Corn cobs replace candles in the chandelier.)

work ethics by his mother. He grew up to be a religious man, never drinking or smoking, but always tithing his income.

With a head for numbers and brief business school training, John’s first job was as an assistant bookkeeper making 50 cents a day for a company that shipped produce and acted as a middle man in sales.1 After a few years, he and a partner started a competing business in the same field, and it prospered.

“Don’t be afraid to give up the good to go for the great.”

A defining moment came when Rockefeller and partners built an oil refinery in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1863. With the price of whale oil rising dramatically, kerosene made from oil was found as a better alternative. Through the hard work and determination of John D. Rockefeller and his partners, this first refinery grew into the oil refining and distribution empire known as Standard Oil.

Rockefeller has been described as ruthless when it came to competition, and he was vilified in the media for his business

Williamsburg.06.11_SEA

practices. He often offered to buy competing oil companies, but if they refused, he undercut prices and drove them out of business. By the late 1880s, he controlled most of the oil production, distribution and sales in the United States. (This was before the invention of the automobile, of course, and before gas stations dotted the landscape.)

Pres. Teddy Roosevelt spearheaded an effort to pass laws to break up monopolies, which is what happened to Standard Oil. This created most of today’s many oil companies.

Ironically, this breakup caused Rockefeller’s net worth to jump by millions of dollars because he received stock in all of those companies.

After Rockefeller retired in 1896, he focused on philanthropy. His donations helped create, support or elevate the University of Chicago, Spellman College in Atlanta (named after his wife Laura Spelman and her abolitionist parents), the Central Philippine University in the Philippines, the Rockefeller University for biomedical research (established in 1910), and Baptist colleges. The Rockefeller Foundation has promoted education, science, food production, art and health throughout the world.

Rockefeller’s philanthropy continued with his son John, Jr., who “…purchased land and donated money…to create or expand Acadia, Great Smoky Mountains, Grand Teton, Yosemite and Shenandoah National Parks.”2 John, Jr., was also the major sponsor of the restoration and reconstruction of Colonial Williamsburg.

John D. Rockefeller died of arteriosclerosis at the age of 97 on May 23, 1937.

“I believe it is a religious duty to get all the money you can, fairly and honestly; to keep all you can, and to give away all you can.”
