HISTORIC DEERFIELD COLLECTION - ANTIQUE AMERICAN COLONIAL & FEDERAL FURNITURE
The Furniture of Historic Deerfield” By Dean A. Fales. Published in New York by E.P. Dutton in 1976. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: The beautiful and scholarly catalog of this very important collection of 17th and 18th century New England furniture. The Flynts themselves purchased most of the items in the collection. So it not only shows a fine cross-section of the best New England furniture, but is also an example of the taste and collecting eye of a single pair of astute and unique collectors. The Pocumtuck Valley Memorial Association website notes- Henry Needham Flynt(1893-1970) with his wife Helen, founded Historic Deerfield in Deerfield, Massachusetts. He was born in Brooklyn, New York, the son of George Converse Flynt and Helen Pratt Needham. In 1920 he married Helen Margaret Geier(1895-1986) of Cincinnati, Ohio. ... moreThe Flynts lived in Brooklyn Heights for several years and then decided to move out of the city. They built a home in Greenwich, Connecticut, in 1929. They had three children, including one son, Henry Jr. who went to Deerfield Academy in 1936. By 1941 Henry Sr. was on the academy's board of directors. Their connection with headmaster Frank Boyden and with the town of Deerfield itself led the Flynts to purchase their first property in the town in 1942. Soon they purchased four more properties, viewing their mission for the town as one of preservation and restoration, a mission that had expanded to include the entire village center of Deerfield.

ADOLPH HENRY MEYER COLLECTION - ANTIQUE AMERICAN FURNITURE -SOTHEBY'S 1996
An Interesting Auction Catalog- Important Americana. The Collection of Mr. and Mrs. Adolph Henry Meyer” The catalog to an auction held in New York by Sotheby's January 20. 1996. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: The January 14. 1996 issue of Britain's The Independent reported- The sale next Saturday of the best collection of American furniture to come on the market for 20 years- the Mr and Mrs Adolf Henry Meyer collection- is a big event. The auction at Sotheby's New York is expected to generate fierce competition between aficionados. Adolf Meyer and his wife Ginger began to collect in the 1950s. They had just moved into a house furnished by Ginger's aunt(in Victorian style) when Ginger stopped off in Birmingham, Michigan, at the antique store of one Jes Pavey, an American furniture enthusiast. He saw some ... morefake antique fire irons in the back of the car and pointed them out. What can I do? asked Mrs Meyer, horrified. Pavey sold her a genuinely old set. Two days later, she rang Pavey and said, Would you hurry over? he recalls. She said: Mr Meyer is here and getting ready to go to the office. Come over and drive in the driveway, so he can't get out. Before Pavey left, he'd been commissioned to redo the house in American style. Meyer told me, When you find something you think fits in this house, we'll discuss it and send you a cheque. He wanted the best. According to the Meyers' grandson, Pavey was 99 per cent responsible for the collection. Adolf Meyer was born in Michigan in 1893, the son of a German immigrant carpenter. Leaving school at 15 he joined Detroit's motor industry and founded two hugely successful companies, American Screw Products and Vulcan Forging, which made him his first and many more millions. The realisation that he couldn't have made a fortune from scratch in this way in any other country brought on an acute attack of American nostalgia. In 1960, the fever gripped him to the point of establishing the"Americana Foundation" a cha

Philadelphia Empire Furniture & Cabinetmakers - Antique American Cabinetwork
Philadelphia Empire Furniture” By John William Boor. With Allison, Jonathan, Christopher, Peter Boor. Published in Hanover by the University Press of New England in 2006. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: This volume looks closely for the first time at Philadelphia Empire furniture and the development of decorative arts in Philadelphia between 1800 and 1840. The authors explore Neo-Classicism. Contemporary history of Philadelphia, the emergence of Greek-Revival architecture, and the cabinetmakers of Philadelphia Empire furniture. At the beginning of the 19th century Greek-inspired architecture gained popularity in Philadelphia and the city became known for its classically-inspired monumental buildings. Newly designed structures of ancient inspiration were decorated with classical furniture that became the prevailing style ... morein private homes as well as public buildings. The arrival of immigrant craftsmen from Europe in the early 19th century and their subsequent collaboration with American furniture makers produced highly sophisticated Empire designs. Neither French nor English, the designs incorporated purely American elements and became known as American Empire. Nineteenth-century Philadelphia Empire craftsmen were particularly well-known for their extensive motif carving, which often has a fluid, three-dimensional character. Philadelphia Empire Furniture' illustrates in color and describes in detail hundreds of Philadelphia decorative art forms from this period, including wood types, dimensions, and maker(if known) Chapters are dedicated to each of the following forms: card tables. Platform pedestal tables, pier tables, worktables, sofas, chairs, sideboards, secretaries, chests, bedsteads, looking glasses, clocks, and other decorative elements. A separate chapter is devoted to the previously unpublished sketchbook of accomplished craftsman Anthony G. Quervelle. Besides Quervelle, other talented and successful Philadelphia furniture makers included Michel Bouvier, Charles White,

Published in Boston by Houghton Mifflin and Company in1924. Revised 3rd edition. Limited to 515 copies. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: The first book on this subject. Initially published in 1891. As the Wards point out(Ames& Ward) Lyon introduced many techniques used by later researchers, including the use of estate and inventory records, newspaper advertisements and cabinetmaker's price books, and he also traveled to England to investigate the origins of his beloved 17th century New England furniture. A pioneering study which is still useful. Stillinger concludes- Lyon's conclusions about the homes of the forefathers have held up startlingly well. The Colonial Furniture ... moreof New England' was so carefully researched and thoughtfully crafted that it remains a standard reference today-an extraordinary accomplishment considering the sophisticated research and technological aids available to the modern student of furniture. No other early furniture scholar's work has the same continuing validity. Dr. Lyon once told an acquaintance that in his medical practice his goal was always to get back to first causes.

Sax Collection -Antique American Furniture Silver Miniatures Textiles & Arts
An Interesting Auction Catalog- Highly Important Americana from the Stanley Paul Sax Collection” The catalog to an auction held in New York by Sotheby's on January 16-17th. 1998. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: The auction of the superlative collection of this well-known and discerning collector of fine American furniture. Silver and related antiques including textiles, portrait miniatures, clocks and prints. The catalog includes an appreciation of Sax by Wendell Garrett, from which we quote several passages- Modest. Unpretentious, and studious, Stan Sax was good company. To the collecting of American antiques he brought an insatiable curiosity, a pursuit of thoroughness and excellence, and an unquenchable thirst for new intellectual adventures. He was the paragon of a collector- a self of unlimited dimensions; a ... morehugely talented, searching, contemplative, daring, visionary, understanding connoisseur-a gentle personality that inspired friendship and a character that justified confidence. He was taken from us at seventy-one, in the prime of his seniority; it hurts to think of what he would have done with more time, but it also helps to remember how fully he used the time he had. He was an expert authority and passionate collector of high-style American furniture and silver who valued things of beauty with which he surrounded himself, whether books, paintings, or other decorative arts. He had that primary personal attribute for the connoisseur of decorative arts which Charles Montgomery termed, a good visual memory stored with an infinite number of images of ordinary, fine, and superior objects mentally pigeonholed for desirability' Stan was a generous benefactor of gifts to the Diplomatic Reception Rooms of the United States Department of State and the Detroit institute of Arts, and was active in the affairs of the Baltimore Museum of Art, The Henry Ford Museum, and the Friends of the American Wing at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
