Provenance Sally Schell Whittemore 1954-2009 According to longtime friend and associate Tom Deupree, “Sally was extremely knowledgeable and forthright in her opinions. She helped many collectors appreciate the nuances of the market and the material.” A native of the Midwest, Sally enjoyed traveling, especially to New England, where she loved buying and selling early American antiques. In October 2003, she married Michael Whittemore, who shared her passion for antiques. They ran a shop from their home in Washington, Illinois, and attended shows across the country. She had a great talent for decorating with the objects she loved and helped many of her clients decorate their homes. So it is not surprising that her home was tastefully filled with country antiques. After a long battle with cancer, Sally passed away in January 2009. She will be missed, not only in the antiques world, but by all who knew her. Skinner is honored to offer her collection at auction.
