SEWER PIPE AND SEWER TILE FOLK ART IN THE AMERICAN MIDWEST Since ancient times, course clay has been shaped to form pipes for sanitary purposes, but it was in Ohio in the late 19th century that such production flourished, largely due to the mechanization of the industry. Entrepreneurial stoneware potters, such as the Merrill brothers in Summit County, led the way by inventing machines to produce pipe quickly and cheaply. Those who worked the clay and made the pipes often, during their spare time, created figures or utilitarian objects such as ashtrays and lamps. These so-called “end of day” objects were sometimes pure whimsy and creativity, and sometimes were based on other objects, perhaps most famously, the seated spaniels imported from the potteries in Staffordshire, England. The heyday of sewer tile was the first quarter of the 20th and elsewhere in the Midwest producing pipes, while their craftsmen also created dogs, lions, birds, tree stump lamps and planters, and many other forms. These works were the result of these potters’ imagination—they are true folk art.

As early as 1846, Zachary Taylor, who had earned the nickname “Old Rough and Read” for his efforts in the Second Seminole War, was already being touted as the Whig candidate for president in the 1848 election. Given that the campaign for Taylor was underway as Routson was ending his pottery in Doylestown, it would seem likely that the impressed slogan on this jug represents a political statement on the part of the potter. This jug is discussed and illustrated in Locher, The Late, Great S. Routson and His Pottery, pp. 27-9, a copy of which accompanies this lot. $300-$600

In its original brass pendant frame with window on the back displaying a lock of hair. 2.75”h. Accompanied by a sixth plate tintype of a family member.

She is still listed there in the 1850 Census, along with her children, the oldest is 19. Wealthy died in Huron County in 1891. Family tradition states that the accompanying tintype is Wealthy, but the tintype dates to the 1860s and it portrays a younger woman, so while it’s not Wealthy, it is likely a family member. $1,000-$2,000

James McPherson was born in Carlisle, Pennsylvania and served in the Army in the west in the 1790s, and was captured by the British and held at Fort Detroit. There he lived, married, and started his family, and was finally released following the 1795 Treaty of Greenville. The McPherson family headed back to Pennsylvania, only to return to Ohio about 1801, settling in Logan County. McPherson used his time at Fort Detroit to befriend the Shawnee Indians, who named him Squa-la-ka-ke (the Red Faced Man). His relations with the Shawnee, of course, soured in 1812 when war broke out and the Indians sided with the British. $250-$500

484 PORTRAIT OF HENRY CLAY (AMERICAN, 2ND QUARTER-19TH CENTURY). Oil on canvas, unsigned. Half-length portrait of the Kentucky statesman, with piercing blue eyes, and wearing a yellow vest. Clay’s suit dates to possibly the late 1820s, but more likely the early 1830s, putting Clay in his early 50s. 30"h. 25"w. Ex Milch Galleries (New York); ex Kennedy Galleries (New York); Ex Helen Clay Frick (Pennsylvania and New York). The portrait was once in the collection of Helen Clay Frick (1888-1984), daughter of one of America’s greatest industrialists and art collectors, Henry Clay Frick. Born at Clayton, the Frick family estate in Pittsburgh, Helen followed her family to New York where her father built his Fifth Avenue mansion. After his death in 1919, Miss Frick, also a collector and staunch supporter of the arts, played a key role in building and managing the Frick Collection, the museum comprised of her father’s New York mansion and art collection. She also established the Henry Clay Frick Fine Arts Department at the University of Pittsburgh, and later funded the construction of the Frick Fine Arts Building. Helen Clay Frick’s personal collection forms the core of what is now the Frick Art and Historical Center (located at Clayton).

484

Based on a label en verso, Miss Frick likely acquired the portrait from Kennedy Galleries in the 1950s or early 1960s. Then, in the spring of 1965, she gave it to her good friend James G. Fulton, Congressman of Pennsylvania’s 27th district, writing, “I have decided to send you a painting…The painting in question is the portrait of a gentleman we both admire-”Henry Clay...” Fulton responded, “I can not tell you how much I appreciate your friendly interest in sending the picture of Henry Clay...With your permission, I believe I will keep it in my Pittsburgh office…” (Both original letters accompany this portrait.) Following Fulton’s death in 1971, the portrait was purchased by his brother, Robert D. Fulton, at the estate auction for $5,000. Marie Fulton, his wife, later gifted the portrait to Congressman Fulton’s niece, in whose family it descended. $20,000-$30,000

Genealogical research has identified three George E. Koplins in Summit County, Ohio, in the late 19th century.

The volume is clearly signed on the front pastedown “William Miller’s Book.” Miller appears to have been a general merchant, first working in Nashville in Holmes County (in the mid 1840s) and then moving to Jackson Township in Wyandot County.

In 1895, Darwin Raley, M.J. (or N.J.) Baker, and Henry Wise formed the Quaker Valley Pottery at Rogers, in eastern Ohio. A startling lack of experience resulted in the pottery going into receivership within two years, and it was ultimately sold. According to archaeological evidence from the Quaker Valley site, the distinctive octagonal spot, the angular thumbpiece on the handle, and the bubbles in the glaze all can point to this pot being a product of this very short-lived pottery.

A. DeHaven was probably Abram DeHaven, born about 1818. He routinely listed himself as a farmer, as many potters did, in the census. He lived, in 1860, just a few doors from Harris Yarrick, a potter. See Treichler, A History of Northeast Ohio Stoneware, p. 48. $250-$500

James C. Smith part of the Bennage family dynasty, sort of. He was engaged to the granddaughter of patriarch of the family, Jacob, and the son of George, both potters.

Exby seems to have been an English-born potter who came to the US before 1856, and ultimately settled in the small town of Newport. The tulip decoration on the present crock bears a striking resemblance to the tulips adorning the pottery of another Tuscarawas County maker, Thomas Reed.

The so-called rent table was a form designed for use on country estates, with multiple drawers for organizing a landlord’s records.

A signed Hamilton County, Ohio, rent table was published in Made in Ohio: Furniture 1788-1888, entry 54. The present rent table was exhibited in Age of Optimism: Ohio Builds a Statehouse (Riffe Center, Columbus, 1996), and in Neoclassical Furniture (1780-1850) (Decorative Arts Center of Ohio, Lancaster, 1999-2000). $300-$600

579 THREE HOUND-HANDLED PITCHERS. Vance Faience Company, Tiltonsville, Ohio, ca.1900, earthenware. One is marked, two are unmarked, and all of the same mold but each with a different glaze: caramel, light green, and “delft” style. 11.5”h. The Vance Faience Company was established in 1900 and hired Austrian-born Rudolph Lorber as its modeller. This particular mold, of course, was not of Lorber’s design, but rather that of Daniel Greatbatch, the English potter who worked at the American Pottery Company in Jersey City, New Jersey. Greatbatch’s mold, or copies of it, travelled far and wide, and saw production (under Greatbatch, himself) in Bennington, Vermont, and also in Ohio. The Bromley pottery in Cincinnati produced hound-handled pitchers of this design, as did Harker, Taylor, and Company in East Liverpool, both at mid century. Vance’s version marks the end of more than half a century of production of Greatbatch’s design. See Murphy, “The Variety of Vance and Avon Faience: Part I: The Vance Faience Company,” in The Journal of the American Art Pottery Association, v. 21, n. 2, pp. 22-26; Richmond, Equal in Goodness: Ohio Decorative Arts, 1788-1860, entry 116; and Stradling, “Fancy Rockingham” Pottery: The Modeller and Ceramics in Nineteenth Century America, pp. 14-15. $500-$1,000

GARTH’S POLICY

GUARANTEE: Garth’s Auctions, Inc. continues to be committed to providing thorough descriptions that reflect our belief in service through honesty, integrity and attention to detail. Garth’s Auctions, Inc. guarantees the authenticity of origin as stated in the first bold line of the catalogue description, with the exception of amendments by any oral or written notices or announcements at the time of the auction. “Origin” is defined as the creator, period, culture, or source, as set forth in the first bold line of a lot in the catalog. Exclusions – Notwithstanding any other provision of these Terms of Guarantee, Garth’s Auctions, Inc. does not guarantee the names or patterns of any Oriental rugs. All rug dimensions are approximate. Garth’s does not guarantee the authenticity of any item created before 1500. Regarding all jewelry, all weights, grades, sizes, and metal content(s) are approximate. Regarding colored stones: purchasers are reminded that colored stones and diamonds may be enhanced by using one or more techniques, including but not limited to: clarity enhancements, resins, and heat treatment. Garth’s makes no warranty express or implied to the buyer as to whether a natural stone has been enhanced. Additionally, antiques, by the very nature of their age, have wear that reflects their years of use. As a result, honest wear earned from use is to be expected and is sometimes the proof that an item is an antique. Normal wear will not be listed. Buyers who would like to know the fine points regarding condition should call prior to the auction. We would prefer that you examine the items before you place a bid. All other guarantees of authenticity of authorship, expressed or implied, are hereby disclaimed. There is no other warranty, express or implied. Each and every lot is sold “as is”.

BUYING FOR OUR ACCOUNT: The owners and employees of Garth’s Auctions, Inc. never have, nor ever will buy any item at our auction for ourselves.

LIABILITY: Garth’s Auctions, Inc. guarantees the authenticity of origin of a lot for a period of twenty-one days from the date of the auction and only to the original purchaser of record at the auction. If it is determined to Garth’s Auctions, Inc.’s satisfaction that the first bold line is incorrect, the sale will be rescinded provided the lot is returned to Garth’s Auctions, Inc. in the same condition in which it was at the time of the auction. It is also Garth’s Auctions, Inc.’s policy to have the purchaser obtain, at the purchaser’s expense, the opinion of one (or two in some cases) recognized experts in the field, mutually acceptable to Garth’s Auctions, Inc. and the purchaser, before Garth’s Auctions, Inc. determines whether to rescind the sale under the above guarantee. The purchaser’s sole remedy in the event of disputed authenticity of origin of any lot shall be the rescission of the sale and return of the original purchase price and premium paid by the purchaser. Garth’s Auctions, Inc. accepts no liability of any kind for an item after the gavel has fallen.

WITHDRAWN LOTS: Garth’s Auction, Inc. reserves the right to withdraw any property before the auction and shall have no liability whatsoever for withdrawal of the property.

SUCCESSFUL BIDDERS: The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer is the buyer. The auctioneer is the sole determinant as to who is the successful bidder. Once the auctioneer’s gavel falls, the successful bidder immediately assumes full risk and responsibility for the purchased lot.

DISPUTED AND REJECTED BIDS: The auctioneer reserves the right to re-open the bidding on the disputed lot. The auctioneer also reserves the right to reject nominal bids and to withdraw from the auction items that do not receive a bid reflective of an item’s worth. We make every attempt, for the benefit of both seller and buyer, to create lots that reflect the quality of our cataloged merchandise. Therefore, any lot not receiving an opening bid of at least $50.00 will be passed.

ESTIMATES & RESERVES: Presale estimates are intended as guides and may not be reflective of actual gavel price. Some of the items in this auction are subject to a reserve. The reserve is a confidential minimum price agreed upon by the consignor and Garth’s Auctions, Inc. The reserve will not be higher than the low estimate.

DEFINITIONS OF STATEMENTS: a) “Attributed to” – work is of the period of the named artist and may be the work of that artist, but not definitely so. b) “Circle of” – work of the period closely associated with the artist or from his studio. c) “School of” – work by a pupil or follower of the artist, in his style. d) “After” – in our opinion, a copy of the work of the artist. e) “Signed” – has a signature that in our opinion is the signature of the artist. f) “Bears signature” – has signature that in our opinion might be the signature of the artist.

PREVIEWS: We encourage our clients to come and examine the items before each auction. Preview times are listed in the forward of each catalog. The stage is closed during the auction.
