IMPORTANT NOTICEView the up-to-date catalog online at FHWAC.comCollecting the West since 1984Majority of our bidders have demonstrated a preference and appreciation for the online version of our catalogs. Not only do our online catalogs offer you the most up-to-date information including in depth descriptions and additional photos, you also have the ability to view current and opening bids, as well as register for the auction, bookmark your favorite lots, and place your bids. You can also keyword search our entire auction across all categories and find lots of interest!

Our goal is to continue producing a reduced amount of printed catalogs while also adapting to the digital era to bring you the most current and relevant catalogs in an easy to use online format.For our active bidders who do not use online resources have no fear; we will not be eliminating the print catalogs. If you are a bidder who needs and prefers a printed catalog in order to view lots and bid, please reach out to us and let us know. We will do our best to accommodate all of our clients!

We cannot be held responsible for these delays, or for the lack of placed bids in a timely manner, or any other factors leading to unaccepted bids that are far beyond our control.

Charles James King of William was the son of James King of William, the infamous SF newspaper publisher. This billhead is dated 1873 and issued to Virginia City, Nevada merchants M. Dellepaine & Co. Areas of heavy soiling. James King of William opened his own bank in San Francisco in 1849. On a return trip from New York from a meeting with his backers Corcoran & Riggs, King met Augustus Humbert, appointed to the newly formed US Assay Office at San Francisco. In March, 1851, King sent Humbert gold coins of Dubosq, Baldwin and Schultz & Co. for assay. King was outraged at the results, and sent copies of Humbert’s letter to every newspaper in San Francisco. This caused him to earn the full distrust and disgust of many.. By 1854, King was bankrupt, which he blamed on the competition. His assets were sold to Adams & Co. in 1854. The next year he started a newspaper that was every bit as controversial as his Assay Office letter. He was a member of the first Vigilance Committee, but it didn’t do him any good. King was assassinated on May 14, 1856 by one of the people he “accosted” with his newspaper writings. The Vigilance Committee grabbed the murderers and hung them in the public square.

That same year he was appointed receiver of public money in the US Land Office in Helena, Montana. This volume is an interesting glimpse into a personal history of an influential Montana businessman at the turn of the 20th century.

Pages 195 to 500 are unused. Date range is from 1896 to 1900. The handwritten name written on the book cover is Jere. Collins, and his signature appears at the end of each letter with a few exceptions: page 43 is signed by his wife, Letta E Collins. Among his letters are descriptions of his on-site visits to mines, his efforts to personally secure a claim on a mineral property, some political endorsements of his brother to be nominated to run for State Treasurer, a personal letter to Governor John E. Rickards regarding the reputation of a high school architect, and more diverse subjects, some of which bear the letterhead of the United States Land Office, although the content of the letters are often more about his personal interests than official state business.

The first page is a title summary of each day of that quarter, and subsequent pages are the text of the editorials as read.

At least one, possibly a guest editorial, has a signature stamp for Jack L. Green. The end-of-year editorial highlights the willingness of the radio editorials to take on controversial subjects, sometimes resulting in retribution against the station by those withholding advertising revenue. Topic listed in the front index include both Republican and Democratic Parties, school board, prisons, the handicapped, Civil Defense, hospitals, highways, hunting safety, and much more.

Theodore took over operations of the Anderson Lumber Company when his brother Charles passed away in 1893. Charles had emigrated to the United States from Norway in 1875 and established a lumber and coal business in Philipsburg three years later. This ledger is in very good condition with intact spine and all 292 numbered pages in four sections.

The town of Philipsburg was named for Philip Deideshieimer, the inventor of the square set timbering system in 1860 that made possible the underground mining in the Comstock gold and silver mines of Virginia City, Nevada. A few years later, Deidesheimer designed and oversaw the construction of the Hope Mill and ore smelter for the St. Louis and Montana Mining Company in 1866. He subsequently platted the town that grew up around those operations in 1867, and the town was named Philipsburg in his honor (which was probably easier to spell and pronounce than Deidesheimersburg).

Most are reports on taxation (“ A Card to the Taxpayer’) or common affairs (“Dr. Hunter, of San Francisco, will be in Reno next Sunday to visit patients and make examinations.”). However, the first article which appears in the upper left corner of the insider front page is a real stunner. Titled: Colored Exodus to the Pacific Coast, the article reads as follows: “Senator Saunders has received a letter from an ex-Governor of Oregon saying they want 250,000 colored people in Oregon and would offer every inducement for immigrants of that class, as they prefer them to Chinese. Saunders is urged to use his influence to encourage and exodus of Southern negroes to that State. When the colored exodus from the South first started the Journal offered the suggestion to the people of the Pacific Coast States to encourage the immigration to this part of the country, believing that the colored folks would not only benefit themselves, but would be welcome here, and above all would supplant the Chinese. A thousand times better to help our own citizens than to continue the aid to this miserable foreign class.” Such were attitudes then.

Jay Haynes first pho t o gr aphe d Yellowstone National Park in 1881 to publicize the Northern Pacific Railroad. Encouraged by Superintendent Philetus Norris, who wanted to promote park visitation, Haynes built stores on land leased in Mammoth Hot Springs in 1884 and at Old Faithful in 1897. After he retired, his son Jack took over the business, and in 1927 built stores, called photo or picture shops, in the Mammoth and Fishing Bridge campgrounds, and a larger facility near what was then the Old Faithful Auto Camp. Eventually, 13 Haynes stores were opened in hotels or their own buildings. As leaders in concessions development in Yellowstone from 1884 to 1962, Frank Jay Haynes and his son Jack Ellis Haynes constructed many buildings for their enterprises. Among the few that remain, the stores at Old Faithful (1927) and in Mammoth Hot Springs (1929) were most important to the primary Haynes business of taking, developing, and selling photographs. By helping Yellowstone gain international recognition for its natural wonders, the Haynes” photography promoted both tourism in the West and the idea of a national park.

46February 2022DAY 1 Thur, Feb 24 FurnishingsLot# 1379 Staffordshire, c Early 1800s Staffordshire Blue & White Transfer Stoneware Platter, “Athens” Scene Large English Delft blue and white transferware stoneware platter. Most likely another Staffordshire piece from the early 1800s. Reverse is marked in blue print “Athens” indicating the name of the pattern. It is also imprinted “Stoneware / P & T”(?) (Illegible), “18” and printed with a single capital letter “B”. It measures approximate 19” x 16” with a scalloped edge and 1.5” dip into the dished center of the platter. We found reference to at least two English potters who used a pattern called “Athens”, and although the scene on this platter bears some resemblance, we could not match it exactly. Of the two potters we were able to rule out Charles Meigh, who operated out of Hanley c1835-1849) William Adams & Sons also offered an “Athens” pattern. Several branches of the Adams family operated factories in the Staffordshire Potteries in late 18th and early 19th centuries, including William Adams I, II and III. William Adams I was an accomplished potter best known for his high quality stonewares. However, his pieces are recorded as marked. His son’s work also included stonewares of a light blue tone that exclusively featured European scenery, but his work is also known to be marked. Lastly, there is William Adams II (1748-1831) who was a minor when his father died, so the pottery was let to Josiah Wedgwood, who operated it as the Bell Works. William II took over in 1769, at which time Josiah Wedgwood opened the Etruria Factory. During his potting career, this William owned or occupied several factories both alone and in partnership with others, but no marked ware of his has ever been identified, making his work a strong candidate for many unmarked pieces of the highest quality, comparable to Wedgwood’s, his father’s and brother’s. The other prominent mark on this platter is a small imprint in the center with “STONE WARE” in an arc or half circle shape and what appears to be 3 letters in a straight line under the “STONE WARE” arc. At first glance the letters resembled “P a T” or “P & C” to us, but the platter is so old that the mark has been worn and it is impossible for us to verify those letters. After a lengthy search we found an almost identical mark belonging to Podmore, Walker & Co. who operated out of Tunstall, Stoke-on-Trent, from 1834-1856. The imprint attributed to this pottery is identical, except the letters underneath the arc are PW&Co. and the letters on this platter do not resemble PW&Co. at all. However, the blue and white platters from this firm look similar to this one, and one has the exact same shape and size with scalloped edge. After additional research we discovered that Thomas Podmore first established a business at the Upper Pot Works c.1830 under the name Thomas Podmore & Co., which he operated for several years before Walker joined him. Although its pure conjecture, we think it is possible Thomas Podmore used the same mark with “TP & Co” under the “STONE WARE” arc, and we can only make out the P & C of the imprint on this platter. It is interesting to note that later Enoch Wedgwood also joined the Podmore partnership and when Thomas Podmore died, Enoch inherited the company and continued operation under the name Wedgwood & Co. Although we cannot attribute this incredible platter either Podmore or William Adams II, both of these possibilities lead us to the name Wedgwood. The platter is unquestionably worth pursuing a professional opinion. Est. $1000-2000 HWAC# 142405Lot# 1380 c1800-1850Staffordshire Blue & White TransferwarePlatter,RoyalCottagepatternStaffordshireEnglishBlue & White Transfer Pottery Platter in the Royal Cottage pattern, featuring a romanticized view of Royal Lodge in Windsor Great Park, which was largely built and designed for George IV, when he was Prince Regent. It is better known today as a favorite home and the place where the Queen Mother died. The pattern was re-used in the 20th Century, but named “Tonquin”. The platter measures 17.5” x 14.75” with 1.5” dip in dish. Marked on reverse with blue printed scenic cartouche with shield containing “Royal Cottage” indicating the pattern, but no maker name. Also imprinted with “10”. Two very small ships off bottom side of scalloped edge. Otherwise perfect. See photos. The backstamp on this piece is known to have been used by W Barker & Son of Hill Pottery, Burslem active 1850 to 1860, Barker, Sutton & Till, Barker & Till or Thomas Till and Son (1850-1861),at The Sytch Pottery in the village of Burslem, Staffordshire. However, these companies used of this mark with the company name included, although we cannot determine if that was always the case. The fact that the company name is not present and that the associated potters are all from Staffordshire, indicates to us this piece may be earlier than 1850, as all the other Staffordshire pieces in this collection appear to be. Again, we recommend a ceramics expert examine and appraise this remarkable piece. Est. $1000-2000 HWAC# 142408Lot# 1381 c1811-1823 Staffordshire Wild Rose Blue & White Transferware Platter Staffordshire Wild Rose Platter BlueandWhiteTransferware.Thisplatter is completely unmarked with the Wild Rose pattern in dark blue and a scene of Nuneham Park or “Nuneham CourtenayofOxfordshire, the Seat of the Earl Harcourt”. The picture is based off an engraving by W. Cook, after a drawing by S. Owen that was first published in 1811. The pottery has a cream colored tone beneath a dark blue. The piece measures 17.5” x 15” with a scalloped edge and a 2” dip in the dish. It is in remarkable condition with no breaks or chips, other than the original flaws from production, a characteristic used to authenticate and date early pieces. Est. $500-1000 HWAC# 142404

This jug is personalized with a name and datepaintedin cursive on the side: “Jane Bigwood / Feby 24th, 1817”. Measures approx. 7” tall; 4.25” diameter at base; 3.75” diameter at mouth; about 8.5” wide from tip of spout to handle. The puzzle jug was first created by Delft Potters as a joke and amusing tavern game that challenged drinkers to consume the contents without spilling. Most have openwork on the neck of the jug with numerous holes which prevent any liquid in the body of the jut from being poured or consumed with employing a special technique. Additional holes are often cleverly concealed adding to the challenge. After an evening of consumption in the local tavern, puzzle jugs provided endless hours of entertainment as rookies attempted to solve the puzzle and left the table game drenched. Due to the close proximity to Holland, English potters were making similar pieces by the late 1600s. By the mid 1700s nearly every major potter produced a blue and white “Delft” line making it difficult to attribute unmarked antique pieces to a specific potter or pottery. However, because puzzle jugs were difficult to produce, most were made on special order and therefore surviving examples are often dated and/or personalized, as this one is. The artwork on this puzzle jug resembles the Italian scenes made famous by Spode, but we cannot place this exact pattern, although we found some pieces produced by Bramel Pottery in Yorkshire that resembled the artwork and pattern on this piece. It is worth noting that this puzzle jug has dragon head spouts, a feature adopted from Chinese porcelain, but the scene pictured in the blue and white transfer pattern is decidedly European.This puzzle jug is personalized with the name and birthday of Jane Bigwood. Jane was born on the date on the jug, February 24th, 1817 in Potterne, Wiltshire, England to Joseph and Grace (Glass) Bigwood, who were married in 1816. Jane was the first born of three siblings. Joseph Bigwood was an Agricultural laborer, according to the records we located. Jane married George Campion and died in 1891 in Collingwood, Victoria, Australia. She had 2-3 children and her last known occupation was a Laundress. It is unusual to find a personalized piece of pottery of this quality commissioned by a blue-collar, working family, which may be the reason it was treasured and survived over 200 years. We highly recommend an expert appraisal of this incredible piece. We will include instructions on how to solve the puzzle jug challenge when we ship the jug to the lucky winner. Est. $2000-4000 HWAC# 142402Lot# 1383 Staffordshire Blue & White Ironstone Transferware Foot Bath & Pitcher - RARE! Rare, LARGE matching foot bath and pitcherset.Staffordshire Blue & White Ironstone Tr a n sf erw a r e. Unknown Maker. Semi-porcelain iscommonlyreferredtoasironstone but it also goes by other names.Thoughthe fired clay body does appear somewhat vitreous (glass-like), it is actually a refined earthenware. In the early 19th century, English Staffordshire potteries began experimenting with a porcelain-like ware that could be cheaply mass-produced. Charles Mason patented this new ware in 1813, which he called ironstone China. Staffordshire is the historic center of semi-porcelain (ironstone) production. By the mid-1800s, several Staffordshire potters produced ironstone because of the presence of high-quality clay within the district. This is an incredible example of ironstone transferware blue and white in a floral pattern. The set is in remarkable condition. The tub measures approximately 16.5” long at base or 19” at top handle to handle x 12.25” wide x 8” tall. The pitcher measures 13.5” tall x 12” wide from handle to lip x 7” diameter at the base. The tube is stamped “SEMI CHINA” on the bottom. The Pitcher is unmarked but someone has written the year 1879 on the bottom. One minor crack visible on bottom of tub (see photos). Otherwise no damage that we can see. The small handle on the pitcher has repair marks where it meets the body, otherwise the pitcher appears undamaged as well. Please examine photos carefully.

The smallest of these feeders with a transfer print scene of a bridge in front of a castle and country homes in the background has a printed mark “Corelana” on the bottom that we cannot attribute, but perhaps refers to the pattern, which is from an unknown maker. It also has a printed “10”. The other two are both unmarked, but one has an old sticker on the bottom from the antique dealer that reads: “Minnie’s Feeding Cup c1835”. These feeding cups vary in design, style and condition. Please examine the photos carefully. The two larger cups have no chips or breaks that we can see and in excellent condition. The smaller cup has a crack inside the cup that can been seen on the outside as well and a miniscule chip, that may be a flaw from the production process, at the tip of the spout. The smallest cup also has a sticker from the dealer with the year 1800. Est. $1000-3000 HWAC# 142403

WEDGWOOD began with English Potter Josiah Wedgwood (1730-1795) about 1759, the first potter of note to mark his products with his own name, rather than easily copied potters marks like the crossed sword, crown or anchor. Wedgwood revolutionized techniques of his trade and his products were in high demand, with Royalty, and the wealthiest of the elite ordering his wares. After he died he passed his business onto his sons and the Wedgwood name became permanently branded in the pottery and china market. Wedgwood china is still produced today, although porcelain pieces were not produced in Josiah’s lifetime. TRANSFERWARE is a design produced by transfer printing, a technique that was adapted by and implemented into mass production processes very early by Josiah Wedgwood and continued to be used through the 20th Century. ETRURIA is the name Josiah Wedgwood gave his 2nd factory when it opened in 1769, after the ancient Etruscan region of Italy. The Etruria Wedgwood Factory was located in Staffordshire, England and operated for 180 years.FERRARA refers to the Wedgwood pattern. It is a port in northern Italy, but the sailing ships in the scenes in this pattern were copied from an engraving of Liverpool Docks in England. The Ferrara pattern is very popular in blue and white china and easily recognized by the dense floral border and classical harbor scenes. Wedgwood produced the Ferrara design from 1832 to the 1960s. From the mid-1870’s the pattern name was consistently printed on the pieces. All these pieces have similar markings printed in blue: “Ferrara / Etruria England / Wedgwood”, with the exception of the unmarked, holed, IRONSTONE butter dish insert as it is part of a butter dish set and the bowl it sits in is marked. In addition The pieces are all imprinted with WEDGWOOD and each is marked with at least one other symbol, shape, number or letter either in print and/or imprinted.Wedgwood (both printed and imprinted) is in all uppercase, serif letters. The marking on these pieces was used from 1891, when the word ENGLAND was added to all Wedgwood markings, until about 1908 when all pieces required the MADE IN ENGLAND mark. That latter mark began appearing on some wares as early as 1898, possibly dating these piece to pre-1900. Est. $500-1000 HWAC# 142364
