A Collection Of Original Peter Falk Pencil Drawings To Sell In October 2011 Auction

2011-09-17T16:32:00.000-07:00

Actor & Artist Peter Falk - Lt. Columbo

A collection of 20 original Peter Falk pencil drawings will sell in Manor Auctions October 2011 Fine Art Catalog Auction. Many know Peter Falk as an Emmy Award winning actor who took part in more than 40 films throughout his acting career. Possibly most notably as the inquisitive and thoughtful Lt. Columbo from the television series "Columbo". A little know fact is that Peter Falk was also an accomplished artist.

On October 9th, 2011, Manor Auctions will bring 20 Original Peter Falk drawings to auction. The drawings will sell during the art session of the auction, and consist of lots 18106 - 18125. This is a fantastic opportunity for the many Peter Falk fans to purchase a rather unique and interesting piece of Peter Falk memorabilia - an Original Drawing - to enjoy and share for years to come.

Peter Falk Self-Portrait Drawing | Lot 18125

The collection of sketches presented here were created during a week-long visit to the studios of Carnegie Hall in New York City in May of 1990. The drawings, developed during multiple sessions from live models, are indicative of Peter Falk's unique talent and are typical of his figurative work in charcoal. Each individual piece is original, and has been "Authenticated by the Estate of Peter Falk" and is presented unframed.

The amazing story of how the consignor came in to owning this collection and her thoughts about Peter Falk and her responsibility to this collection of drawings:

Peter Falk Drawing - Study of a Woman | Lot 18121

"In 1987 one of my painting instructors at the Art Students League in New York referred me to Carnegie Hall for a painting studio that became available. It was a coveted opportunity because the studios were rare and one had to be recommended and reviewed before being accepted into Carnegie Hall's artistic community. In 1990 I was considering traveling for two months and there were few artists I knew who could afford to take over the space. I thought of Peter Falk, whom I had met while studying at the Art Students' League, and sent him a letter to see if he might be interested. He got back to me that while he would not be able to take it over for two months he would like the opportunity to draw from the model in Carnegie Hall. That is how, for a one week period in 1990, Peter Falk and I happened to share my painting studio and expenses for models. When he left he gave me his 18" x 24" figurative charcoal drawings, a total of 83, in two drawing pads of newsprint. I received a check with Peter Falk's signature for his portion of the models' fees. We worked together during the week of May 16th, 1990 - I know this exact time period because Peter Falk and I discussed the May 16th passing of Sammy Davis, Jr..

While working in my studio he made or received phone calls from, I believe, his agent. During the phone conversations he made notations and drawings on the newsprint pads he was using for the model. The drawings may be described as doodles and the notations include phone numbers, names and rating comparisons related to Columbo for NBC, ABC and CBS. After many years 'Columbo' was just coming back into production and rehearsal. For purposes of authenticity this is remarkably fortunate because his notations establish Peter Falk's handwriting and provide an amazing connection between the actual production of Columbo and his art.

The Studios of Carnegie Hall were an historic haven for creative talent until recently when all the artist/ tenants were forced to leave. A film released just this past May 20th titled 'Lost Bohemia' chronicles this event and delves into the many famous artists and dancers who had their studios there. I believe Peter Falk was aware of Carnegie Hall's legendary artist's studios and wanted to experience its energy. I am so fortunate to have been a part of such a magical community and environment. The background - 'provenance' - of how the Peter Falk drawings came to be also brings to light the rich creative history of Carnegie Hall. And it includes the historic Art Students League - both further establishing Peter Falk as a fine artist.

The emergence of so many iconic entities: Peter Falk, Columbo, The Art Students League and Carnegie Hall I believe make this collection of beautiful figurative gesture drawings extraordinary and significant.

I've had the drawings for 21 years and only brought them out to show family members on the 4th of July. The reaction and opinions that followed were so enthusiastic it was overwhelming. I was urged to be pro-active about something I had never even thought of and it led me to Manor Auctions and my first conversation with the team there.

It was a privilege to work alongside Peter Falk and to bear witness to his incredible dedication and talent. I truly feel I have been entrusted by the late legendary actor and artist to do the right thing. I feel confident that Manor Auctions shares that same sentiment - and will bring Peter Falk's drawings to the public in their best light".

A.E. Backus Oil Painting Of A Sailboat Sets Sail In July 30th Auction

2011-08-06T15:50:00.000-07:00

Albert Ernest (A.E.) Backus oil painting of a sailboat on board attracted the Florida art collectors on July 30th. Albert "Beanie" Backus (American, 1906 - 1995) is perhaps the most well known Florida Landscape artist to ever live. Original Backus paintings continue to attract the collectors and command great value in the market. This particular Backus oil painting of a sailboat would have been one of his many Caribbean works, as Backus had enormous love for the Caribbean and spent a great deal of time at his second home in Jamaica. Collectors were delighted to have this painting brought to market, with an Internet bidding adding it to his collection for $9105 (inclusive of buyers premium).

ALBERT E. BACKUS - OIL ON BOARD PAINTING SAILBOAT

Known as the "Dean of Florida painters" and the man who began the story of the African American Highwaymen painters, Backus was responsible for teaching and mentoring Al Hair who, in turn, taught the others.

Early Heywood-Wakefield Wicker Furniture Sells July 30th

2011-08-01T04:36:00.000-07:00

Heywood-Wakefield is known as the premier maker of fine wicker furniture. Manor Auctions will feature a collection of early collectible Heywood-Wakefield wicker furniture pieces in their July 30th Catalog Auction. For years Heywood-Wakelfield was a global leader in the production and sale of Wicker.

Heywood-Wakefield formed as the coming together of 2 competitors in the furniture business. The first being Heywood Brothers furniture which was established in 1826 and the second being Wakefield Company established in 1855. Both of the companies produced very popular high quality wicker furniture. As separate companies they were fierce rivals in the industry, but in 1897 the companies merged as Heywood Brothers & Wakefield Company. The name was later changed (1921) to Heywood-Wakefield. Then as the company progressed and grew larger, Washburn-Heywood Chair Company was purchased in 1916, Oregon Chair Company in 1920 and lastly Lloyd Manufacturing Company in 1921. At this point in time, Heywood-Wakefield was the largest producer of wicker furniture in the world making a wide range of furniture for most every taste.

The Highwaymen were inducted in to the Florida Artists Hall Of Fame in 2004. Their paintings can be found in private collections, galleries, museums and government buildings. The Highwaymen will be at Manor Auctions Tallahassee gallery from 10am through the early evening hours.

The Florida Highwaymen movement began in the early 1950’s when A.E. Backus, a prominent White artist in S. Florida began teaching Alfred Hair, a little known African-American art student who was eager to make a career in painting. Their unlikely partnership began what would become known as the Florida Highwaymen.

Philip James de Loutherbourg Landscape Paintings On May 7th Auction Block

2011-05-03T05:43:00.000-07:00

Philip James de Loutherbourg Landscape Paintings On May 7th Auction Block

A pair of Philip James de Loutherbourg (French, 1740 - 1812) oil on canvas landscape paintings will sell in Manor Auctions May 7th Fine Art Auction. The pair of Loutherbourg paintings were acquired from a private Floirda collection and are in very good condition. Loutherbourg established himself as an accomplished romantic landscape painter during his time. These paintings are a good representation of Loutherbourg's grasp on landscape painting and romanticism. Throughout his life, Loutherbourg was an alsatian painter, illustrator and stage designer, active in France and England.

Trained under his father, Philipp Jakob (1698-1768), an accomplished painter of miniature portraits. Jakob moved the family to Paris in 1755. While living in Paris Loutherbourg became a pupil of Carle Vanloo; he also attended Jean-Georges Wille's engraving academy in the Quai des Augustins and Francesco Casanova's studio. Wille directed Loutherbourg's attention to 17th-century Dutch landscape artists, such as Philips Wouwerman and Nicolaes Berchem, and in 1763 Denis Diderot noticed the inspiration of the latter in Loutherbourg's first Salon exhibit, a landscape with figures (Liverpool, Walker A.G.).

Manor Auctions is pleased to bring these fine Loutherbourg landscape paintings to market in the their May 7th Fine Art Catalog Auction, taking place in their Tallahassee Auction Gallery.

Gold Shipwreck Treasure Coin Collection Delivered In McDonalds Parking Lot

2010-08-26T06:01:00.000-07:00

Just like a scene from a Hollywood movie, a representative of the estate hand delivered this Gold Shipwreck Coin collection to Manor Auctions in a cardboard box while the two sat in the backseat of a car in a South Florida McDonalds parking lot.

Manor Auctions, headquartered in Tallahassee Florida, has been commissioned to sell the Gold Shipwreck Treasure Coin collection in the October 2010 Lakeland Auction. The collection is comprised of 6 gold coins, all set in high karat gold jewelry surrounded by treasure emeralds and beautiful diamonds. The jewelry pieces include necklaces, rings, bracelets and a seal ring.

So many treasure hunters, inspired by those who have struck it rich before them, dedicate their lives to potential discovery of hoards of valuable sunken gold & silver treasure of coins, plates, jewelry, bowls, bars and the like. Life-long treasure hunter Mel Fisher is one of those who spent much of his life adventuring out in search of sunken treasure, but different than so many others, Fisher did successfully locate and secure the rights to the Spanish galleon Atocha and Santa Margarita off Key West Florida, both of which sunk in a hurricane in 1622. Fisher’s discovery and subsequent success in the courts made him an icon in the world of treasure hunters, not to mention very wealthy.

Manor looks forward to bringing these rare gold treasure coin jewelry pieces to auction. The grouping consists of coins from various wrecks, including the Atocha. All the lots will be sold unreserved to the highest bidder. The collection has been submitted to Manor Auctions numismatic catalog department, where they will be properly researched and catalogued. Once catalogued, the collection will be available for public lot viewing in Manor’s Tallahassee Auction gallery through October 3rd. Bidders can participate in the October 9th Lakeland Florida auction via floor, phone, Internet or absentee. All questions, please contact Manor Auctions at service@manorauctions.com or 850-523-3787.

Scrimshaw: The artful and often elaborate handiwork created by whalers made from the byproducts of harvesting marine mammals. It is most commonly made out of the bones and teeth of sperm whales, the baleen of other whales, and the tusks of walruses. Often created to pass the time / leisure, as presentation pieces or to commemorate an occurrence.

Scrimshaw is derived from the practice of sailors on whaling ships creating common tools, where the byproducts of whales were readily available. The term originally referred to the making of these tools, only later referring to works of art created by whalers in their spare time. Whale bone was ideally suited for the task, as it is easy to work and was plentiful.

The development of scrimshaw took off after the market for whale teeth, which was sought by Chinese traders for use in the Pacific Islands (for example the Fijian market for tabua), was flooded with teeth after a narrative by an American sailor, Captain David Porter, revealed both the market and the source of the teeth. Around this time is the earliest authenticated pictorial piece of scrimshaw (1817). The tooth was inscribed with the following This is the tooth of a sperm whale that was caught near the Galapagos islands by the crew of the ship Adam [of London], and made 100 barrels of oil in the year 1817.^[3]

Other sea animal ivories were also used as alternatives for rarer whale teeth. Walrus tusks, for example, may have been acquired in trade from indigenous walrus hunters.

Scrimshaw essentially was a leisure activity for whalers. Because the work of whaling was very dangerous at the best of times, whalers were unable to work at night. This gave them a great deal more free time than other sailors. A lot of scrimshaw was never signed and a great many of the pieces are anonymous. Early scrimshaw was done with crude sailing needles, and the movement of the ship, as well as the skill of the artist, produced drawings of varying levels of detail and artistry. Originally, candle black, soot or tobacco juice would have been used to bring the etched design into view. Today's artists use finer tools in various sizes, mostly borrowed from the dental industry. Some scrimshanders ink their work with more than one color, and restrained polychromed examples of this art are now popular.

Originating in an era when sperm whales were initially plentiful only to be hunted to near collapse, scrimshaw no longer is an artform utilizing an easily renewable animal resource, but one that is susceptible to contraband. Now, the Endangered Species Act and international conventions restrict the harvest and sale of ivory to try to reverse the scarcity of ivory-bearing animals.

Scrimshanders and collectors acquire legal whale teeth and marine tusks through estate sales, auctions and antique dealers. To avoid illegal ivory, collectors and artists check provenance and deal only with other established and reputable dealers.

This rare scrimshaw & ivory collection will be sold on October 9th in Manor's Lakeland Florida Fine Art, Jewelry & Collectible Auction. Bidders can participate via floor, phone, Internet & absentee. Contact Manor Auctions with any questions pertaining to the auction: 850-523-3787.

About Clark Gable:

William Clark Gable (February 1, 1901 – November 16, 1960) was an American film actor, nicknamed "The King of Hollywood" in his heyday. In 1999, the American Film Institute named Gable seventh among the greatest male stars of all time.

Gable's most famous role was Rhett Butler in the 1939 Civil War epic film Gone with the Wind, in which he starred with Vivien Leigh. His performance earned him his third nomination for the Academy Award for Best Actor; he won for It Happened One Night (1934) and was also nominated for Mutiny on the Bounty (1935). Later performances were in Run Silent, Run Deep, a submarine war film, and his final film, The Misfits (1961), which paired Gable with Marilyn Monroe in her last screen appearance.

During his long film career, Gable appeared opposite some of the most popular actresses of the time. Joan Crawford, who was his favorite actress to work with, was partnered with Gable in eight films, Myrna Loy was with him seven times, and he was paired with Jean Harlow in six productions. He also starred with Lana Turner in four features, and with Norma Shearer in three. Gable was often named the top male star in the mid-30s, and was second only to the top box-office draw of all, Shirley Temple.

The Clark Gable Golf Cart goes to auction on October 8th. Become a Manor Auction member and don't miss the opportunity to own Clark Gable's Golf Cart.

Imperial Chinese Screen Sells for $117,300

2010-07-31T06:52:00.000-07:00

Imperial Chinese screen hits the auction block with fervor! A 2 panel red lacquered Imperial Chinese screen sold to an unnamed phone bidder in Manor Auctions September 25th Asian Antiques & Decorative Arts specialty auction.

Imperial Chinese Treasure Discovered Under The Tallahassee Consignor's Bed Realized $117,300 At Auction!

Palm Beach, Florida July 25th 2010 – Manor Auctions, auction division to Sun State Collectibles, hammered home an Imperial Chinese treasure in its Asian Decorative Arts & Antiques Auctionin Palm Beach on July 25th.

One never knows what lies beneath the bed, in the closet or buried in the attic. This statement could not ring more true for an Imperial Chinese screen discovered under the bed of a Tallahassee area home. The consignor, a local Tallahassee resident, had absolutely no clue as to the value he had slept above for the past 20 years. In fact, he cannot even recall exactly where he bought the screen – except to believe it was purchased in a lot of screens from a NY auction house years back. In which case, it would have most likely been overlooked by the world’s prominent Chinese collectors.

The discovery and marketing of this screen created global fervor in the Chinese collecting community. This screen dates back hundreds of years, into Imperial China and possesses a strong collector demand to modern day collectors. “No comparable screen of this quality or rarity has seen the light of day in recent years, so the interest was unbelievably intense from moment this screenhit the market – we knew it was going to be exciting to sell – but not $117,300 exciting” states Paul Barattini, Owner of Grace Estate Buyers - Manor Auctions TallahasseeOffice. Barattini went on to explain how the sale of this screen reinforces the importance of professional research and auction services when people have potential valuables they are uncertain about. The battle to own the screen waged on for about 5 minutes between floor, Internet and phone bidders, with an unnamed phone bidder finally winning out.

This Imperial Chinese screen most likely made its way to the states by way of Britain. When the British Expeditionary Force of 1901 was sent to lift the siege of the British Legation in Beijing and quell the Boxer Rebellion - It is known that they entered the Forbidden City and the Summer Palace. Many of the original artifacts and decorations were taken back to Britain and a good many of those found their way to the States.

About the Gibson Les Paul Goldtop Guitar

Gibson Les Paul Goldtop (1952–1958)

The 1952 Les Paul featured two P-90 single coil pickups, and a one-piece, 'trapeze'-style bridge and tailpiece, with strings that were fitted under (instead of over) a steel stop-bar. The weight and the tonal characteristics of the Les Paul were largely due to the mahogany and maple construction: maple is a hard and quite heavy wood, but was restricted to a cap over somewhat lighter mahogany, to keep weight under control.^[8] In addition, the early 1952 Les Pauls were never issued serial numbers, did not have bound bodies, and are considered by some as "LP Model prototypes". However, the later 1952 Les Pauls were issued serial numbers and also came with bound bodies. Interestingly, the design scheme of some of these early models varied. For instance, some of the Les Pauls of this issue were fitted with black covered P90 pickups instead of the creme colored plastic covers that are associated with this guitar, even today. Of note, these early models, nicknamed "Goldtops", have begun to gain the interest of collectors, and subsequently, the associated nostalgic value of this instrument is increasing. In fact, re-sale prices of the vintage Les Pauls have begun to compete with already high priced, but more practical (and usable) Les Paul versions issued in later years.
