The Studebaker Collection of Quaker Hill

For over half a century, Richard and Sue Studebaker have stood as pillars of the Ohio antiques community. Thousands of collectors, scholars, and students have been welcomed to Quaker Hill, the couple’s eighteenth century home in Dayton, to enjoy the Studebaker’s hospitality and their passion for Americana.

4 | GARTH’S November 26-27, 2010

Richard and Sue purchased their first antique on their honeymoon in New England in 1952, and within a few years, the couple purchased their “biggest antique”: Quaker Hill. Over the next five decades, they amassed a collection of eighteenth and nineteenth century furniture, art and accessories, which along with the home itself, has been profiled in numerous publications, including House Beautiful, Early American Life, The Magazine Antiques, and Time-Life’s American County series. Most recently, Sue shared their collection at the 43rd Annual Antiques Forum at Colonial Williamsburg. While Richard enjoyed a successful career as an optometrist, Sue undertook the study of American antiques with enthusiasm, eventually proudly bearing the mantle “expert”, having taught courses at several museums and universities. She expanded her knowledge through fellowships at the Winterthur Museum and the Museum of Early Southern Decorative Arts, and she attended the prestigious Attingham Program in England. Most of Sue’s efforts focused on schoolgirl needlework, particularly the samplers of early Ohio. She published articles in The Antique Review and Early American Life, as well as two books, the second of which, Ohio is My Dwelling Place, was accompanied by a landmark exhibition at the Decorative Arts Center of Ohio in

Lancaster, which earned her that year’s Ohioana Citation Award for Historic Preservation of the Decorative Arts. Among the earliest surviving homes in Ohio, the Studebaker’s beloved Quaker Hill was built in 1797 by Judge John Ewing. Upon settling in the Miami Valley, he originally built a simple frame house and expanded it about twenty years later. His son, John Jr., took over the house in 1823 and expanded it once again. After his death in 1882, the house left the Ewing family. It survived some difficult years in the early twentieth century, but was restored by Mr. and Mrs. John Weston in the 1940s, who sold Quaker Hill to the Studebakers in 1958. During their fifty-year residency, Richard and Sue filled their home not only with antiques, but with family and friends. At Quaker Hill, they raised their sons, Park and Dana; they hosted countless parties; and they helped to conduct many educational events, including the annual summer picnic of the Dayton Antiques Study Club (of which they were long-time members). Sadly, Sue passed away suddenly in 2008. Richard and his sons have decided that it is time to disperse the family’s collection. Garth’s is honored to have been chosen to represent their collection at auction, and we are pleased to offer you the following 350 lots of antiques, art, and books from Quaker Hill.

360

DECORATED CHEST OF DRAWERS. Western Pennsylvania or the Midwest, dated 1872, cherry, walnut, and poplar. Three over four drawers, a low backsplash, and resting on turned feet. Retains its original red and black paint with stenciled decoration including “P. Yoder” and “1872.” Minor imperfections. 48 1/2”h. 39 1/2”w. 19”d. This chest is part of a growing group of decorated objects made in either Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, or western Pennsylvania (outside of Soap Hollow) but closely related to the work of Soap Hollow in Somerset County. This chest, in overall form and aesthetic, clearly relates to, but varies slightly from, a Soap Hollow chest of drawers. More importantly, perhaps, many of the stenciled motifs relate specifically to stenciled motifs used by Soap Hollow makers that emigrated west. The bowl of fruit on the lower drawer appears identical to that which appears on a number of Soap Hollow blanket chests, including one labeled by Jeremiah Stahl (who migrated to Kent County, Michigan in 1870), as well as a chest of drawers by Peter K. Thomas (whose migration to Kent County preceded Stahl’s by three years). See Muller, Soap Hollow: The Furniture and Its Makers, pp. 38 and 43. Additionally, the stenciled tablet on the third long drawer appears the same as on a chest of drawers bearing other stencils used by both Stahl and Thomas. See Muller, p. 76. For other examples from this group, see Garth’s, November 2009, lots 118 and 119. Accompanying the chest is a copy of Manufactured by Hand: The Soap Hollow School. $1,000-$2,000 360

LT. COMMANDER JAMES PARKER’S FLAG FROM THE SECOND BATTLE OF FORT FISHER. Handsewn with thirty-four appliqué stars, signed “James Parker” on the fly. Approximately 8 1/2’ by 16 1/2’. Also included in this lot is a handsewn naval pennant with thirteen embroidered stars, approximately 25’l., as well as Parker’s appointment to lieutenant (signed by President Pierce), a photograph of Parker in uniform, a May 1865 document related to Parker’s capture of six Confederate officers, an April 1881 letter to Parker from Secretary of the Navy Hunt, and a 1911 typewritten draft of a letter from Parker to the United States Naval Academy asking to be appointed to their board. By the end of 1864, Fort Fisher, just outside of Wilmington, North Carolina, stood as the South’s last major seaport. In December of that year, the Union Army and Navy attempted to capture the fort, but the effort ended in failure. A couple of weeks later, on January 15, 1865, the Army, under Major General Alfred Terry, and Navy, under Rear Admiral David Porter, embarked on a second attempt to take the fort, this time with over 8,000 troops and 60 boats. After a brutal battle, the Union finally captured the fort and a month later dealt a major blow to the Confederacy by capturing Wilmington. James Parker was born in Newark, Ohio, and graduated from the US Naval Academy. He served in the Navy until 1856 when he began studying law under Salmon P. Chase. According to the typewritten document included in this lot, Parker “immediately on the morning of the 13th of April, 1861, volunteered to resume [his] old place in the Navy to defend the Union.” He took command of the USS Maumee and was in charge of the 3rd Division of Fleet Captain Kidder Breese’s landing part at Fort Fisher. Parker was commended for his actions during the capture of Fort Fisher. Most notably, during the landing, he realized that he outranked Breese, but as Breese was acting under the direct command of Admiral Porter, Parker relinquished control saying, “I won’t dispute about command, but will waive my rank and go into this fight at the head of my men leaving it to you to make the situation just as little disagreeable as possible.” Parker’s actions that day were later complimented by Confederate Colonel William Lamb, who was in command at Fort Fisher during the attack. He wrote to Parker in 1879, “I particularly noticed in the assault an officer who seemed to lead the column and who was almost recklessly brave... When we afterwards met on board the Steamer California...you had come to see if you could be of any service to me in my wounded condition you can imagine my surprise...to learn that you were he and the pleasure it gave me to know that so brave and gallant foe had escaped.” According to tradition, the present flag was raised at Fort Fisher upon its capture by the Union Army and Navy. The US flag gained its 35th star in 1863 with the admission of West Virginia, so it must be assumed that the flag had been owned by Parker for at least two years prior to the siege of the fort. The flag, pennant, and the documents have remained in the possession of descendants until consigned to this auction. $25,000-$30,000

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.
