Nevertheless, his work received national attention and by the mid 1920s Harleston was offered exhibition opportunities and commissions from patrons in Atlanta, Boston, Washington D.C., and New York. The Gibbes Museum of Art currently owns six works by Harleston, including his renowned Portrait of Aaron Douglas.(Gibbes Museum of Art: https://www. gibbesmuseum.org/news/artist-spotlight-edwinharleston-american-1882-1931/ ) Edwin A. “Teddy” Harleston was also a community activist in Charleston, South Carolina. A member of Plymouth Congregational Church, he founded the Charleston chapter of the NAACP in 1917 and served as first president of the organization. His father, Captain Edwin G. Harleston (1854-1931), opened Harleston Funeral Home in 1917, and the duo ran this business until their deaths in 1931.

710 Zelda Sayre Fitzgerald (American/Alabama, 1900-1948) Zelda’s House, unsigned, gouache on paper, 10 x 14 in; modern frame, 20 x 16-3/4 in., paper in good condition; frame with light wear Provenance: By descent in the Gassenheimer family; Property from a Private Collector Estimate: $15,000 - $20,000 An Introduction by the consignor: Zelda’s painting of her home in Montgomery, hung in my grandparent’s home, then my parent’s and then hung in mine. Thanks to the stories my grandmother told and retold to me, Zelda was as large a figure in my imagination as she was in real life. My grandmother, Birdie Frank Gassenheimer, was a friend of Zelda’s in Montgomery, Alabama in the early 1900’s. Born in Montgomery just a few years earlier, they both attended Sidney Lanier High School. The last child of 11, Birdie wasn’t even given a name until 6 years old; she was called “Baby” until one day hanging from a window she pointed and called “Birdie” and so named herself. Like Zelda and another contemporary, Tallulah Bankhead, born two years after Zelda, all three were extroverted and independent. Spoiled in childhood and doted on in adolescence, they lived a carefree life lacking for little. Birdie’s stories were about outings, dating, and parties. The one I loved the most was about Zelda, Birdie and friends late night skinny dipping in the Dexter Avenue fountain in downtown Montgomery. They were free, uninhibited and determined to enjoy their youth. Having visited the fountain myself countless times, I could never get enough of this story, picturing their hats, dresses and under things hanging on the wrought iron fencing around the fountain. Imagining them shrieking and splashing under the stars was captivating. They went with boys on hunting and fishing trips- not to hunt and fish but to drink, smoke, and gossip. Nights were filled with fancy dress dinners and dancing and of course their dance cards were always full. They definitely exemplified “living in the moment.” But as you know from the fame of Zelda and Tallulah, there was also a dark side with episodes of manic depression, substance abuse and attention seeking behavior. Birdie did not escape this. A semi-pro golfer with a bright future, she gave it up when she married. It seems as if even women as self sufficient as these were often cowed and overshadowed by the men in their lives, in constant rebellion to what was expected of women at the time. Very close to Birdie and like lots of kids, I spent more time at her house than my own. She was always so much fun. I loved watching her entertain grown-ups with fancy cocktails and lavish multi-course meals. She was the life of the party. Kids were expected to “be seen and not heard” so we sat on the floor playing with cards and poker chips, underneath where “The Zelda’s” were prominently hung. Listening to the conversations we’d wonder what was always so riotously funny. Often we would take our Shirley Temples outside on the terrace of their Bankhead Avenue home and play at being grown up, a little drunk on the happy time, food, and heady aromas of camellias and magnolias surrounding the home in abundance. I would often spend Friday night with Birdie after the parties and we’d lie awake talking until falling asleep when she’d tell me the stories again. They seemed like the very best memories for her too. Saturday afternoons would find us listening to opera in the living room, she on the sofa and me on the floor beneath “The Zeldas” given to Birdie from Zelda with love.

729 Winfred Rembert (American, 1945-2021) Three Women, signed verso “Winfred Rembert”, dye on carved and tooled leather, 19-1/2 x 14 in.; metal frame, 20 x 14-1/2 in., surface is very good; frame with light wear Provenance: By descent in the family of the artist’s sister Estimate: $50,000 - $75,000 Born in rural Georgia, raised in a community tied to the cotton fields, Winfred Rembert survived a childhood of poverty in the segregated South of the 1940s. He would go on to be a nationally recognized artist, and his biography - Chasing Me to My Grave: An Artist?s Memoir of the Jim Crow South - was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 2022. It was not a well paved path. In 1966, after a demonstration in Americus, Georgia, Rembert was arrested and put in jail without being charged. A year later, he escaped but was caught and hung up by a group of deputy sheriffs. They stuck him with a knife but did not kill and burn him as he had anticipated. He spent the next seven years in a chain gang. Remarkably, he met his wife while building roads and bridges in rural Georgia as part of his prison sentence. While in prison, a man named TJ taught him how to carve wallets out of leather, a skill that he would use decades later in his embossed leather paintings. After his release, Rembert and Patsy married and they moved to New York, then Connecticut, where he worked a variety of jobs. Not until in his 50s after a second round in prison, did he begin to draw and paint the scenes of his youth, carving the stories into tactile leather canvases. In 2000, Rembert had a well publicized show at the Yale University Art Gallery. In 2002, he was introduced to Peter Tillou after speaking about his artwork at a school in Waterbury, Connecticut. A short time later they agreed to a working relationship that included numerous exhibitions and his 2010 coming out show at Adelson Galleries in New York.

Old-timers have forgotten all but the “Old Ticknor’n Tooten.” At the beginning of the year 1905, the Flint River & North Eastern Railroad was born by the joining of two logging railroads. One ran northeast from Pelham, Ga., and the other ran southwest from Tichnor, fourteen miles north of Moultrie, Ga. on the Georgia Northern R. R. My Father, “Stuttering Dick” Smith, had the doubtful honor of pulling the inaugural train, an excursion of the F.R. & N.E. Combination and three day coaches borrowed from the Georgia Northern. Stuttering Dick ran the mixed train until his death in December of 1905. His body was hauled in the combination car which together with the engine was trimmed in crepe in honor of the dead engineer. His body was unloaded at the station on December 9, 1905 and buried in the cemetery where the organizer of the line, and founder of the town of Pelham, Mr. J.L. Hand is buried. Stuttering Dick was my father and I was his companion in the cab for many happy hours. Signed: E.A. (Frog) Smith
