Frames are 14 x 11 inches, all black. George Mathis (1909-1977) was born in Seattle, Washington. He attended Washington State University, where he majored in art, and studied under William T. McDermott (1884-1961), who became a well-known western landscape painter. After graduation from WSU in June 1932, he moved to California and worked as a commercial artist and art teacher for a number of years. After living for a few years in the Bay Area, the Mathis family relocated in 1948 to Nevada City, California, the Mother Lode country. The primary motivation for this change was George’s growing urge to pictorially recreate western history. Around 1960 they moved to Coloma, another Mother Lode town, where they completely remodeled a Victorian-style house dating to the Gold Rush era. Here they both lived and operated an art gallery and studio where they sold many products of lithography and George’s numerous historical drawings and sketches.

Each print features a scene related to the Andalusian region of southern Spain and have subtitles of Picador (a bullfighter on horseback who stabs the bull to weaken it), Matador (the bullfighter who kills the bull), Gitanas Vendiendo Bunuelos (Gypsies Selling Fritters), El Columpio (The Swing), Duelo de Jitanos (Duel of the Gypsies), Feria del Rocio (lit. Fair of the Dew, an annual pilgrimage to the Hermitage of El Rocio), and Compra del Ganado (Cattle Buying). The seventh in the set shows a woman and a man, subtitled “Amparo Alvarez, La Campanera” (lit. the bell ringer) and “Cuchares, Primer Espada” (lit. best sword). These two were likely famous personalities in Andalusia. The lithographer is credited in the lower left or right corner with “Lit. C. Santigosa, Seville” except on the seventh print. He is known to have produced an 1840 album of 22 lithographs called “Album Sevillano” from which these prints may have come. Seville is the capital of Andalusia.

Miller kept journals in which he sketched scenes from his daily life and surroundings. Many of his drawings are housed in Colonial Williamsburg and a museum in his birthplace of York, Pennsylvania. One of these prints is titled by Miller as “The Court House in Christiansburg in the year - 1831, and old Jail,” and the other is titled “Residence of Mr. Croctett in Wytheville, July 1 the, 1856.” and it has a lower caption that reads “ A Large Elm Tree Struck by Lightning in the Evening, Eighty feet from the house at Stewart Croctett.” (I know, you’d think it was Crockett, but he did not write it that way.) This one shows a lightning bolt striking a tree in the upper left. The Court House print was carefully removed from the frame for close examination. It is definitely not an original drawing but a very early type of print that was hand tinted with watercolor. The prints are 6-5/8 x 8-1/4 inches in simple wooden frames that are approx. 8 x 9-1/2 inches. When examined, the backing paper was discovered to be a recycled color print, probably from a tabloid.

Hollowed tree, painted figures, wood splits with repaired wood splits, a classic. This 15’ tall totem contains six figures. The top is a red bird with folded wings, a feature of the clan, which we were unable to identify. As an example, the thunderbird figure is a feature of Tlingit, and sometimes other related clan. Totems are read from bottom to top. This totem has a cut flat base, indicating it may have been trimmed through time, particularly for private or museum presentation, such that its original bottom is not clear. The bottom figure is a red faced multi-colored feather bird with upward extended ears, as an owl. Next up the pole is a turquoise colored frog (?) underneath a blue whale (?). The central figure is a flesh colored mammal, possibly a mink or badger. The second figure from the top appears to be a woman holding her baby. The top figure is an owl, the same as the bottom figure. Both owls appear to have the beak broken or removed. Our limited research points to the Puget Sound region and the Shomamish Clan, which used owls at the tops of the totems. This is a classic totem pole.

The grinding hole is 9” deep, and there is a 9” chip out of one side. The grinding stone is 9” long and 3.5” diameter. In the late 1940s and 50s, Dorothy Batchelor and another woman owned a home at 101 Court Street in Reno, Nevada, directly south across the street from the historic Washoe County Court House. There they offered several cabins to women seeking “quicky divorces” where they could fulfill the Nevada law requiring residency in the state for six months prior to obtaining a divorce. The two women also owned an antique store, where many items from the 40s and 50s experience were sold. Through that business, this mortar and pestle was acquired by Dorothy, who later retired to Grass Valley, California, where it passed to the consignor in 1985 after Dorothy’s death.

Some glue residue on reverse. Company operated on Seneca Lake, the largest of the glacial Finger Lakes. Their Otetiana Steamer was constructed in 1883 by William B. Dunning. The Otetiana was used for some time as a tour boat until it rotted through and sank at dock in Geneva in 1909. Another steamer, the Onondaga, operated on Seneca Lake until a fateful series of events brought about its destruction. In the summer of 1898, it was used as a quarantine vessel for the Joshua Simpkins Opera Company after it was rumored a member of their troupe had developed smallpox.

Lincoln and Stephen Douglas had both lobbied for the railroad’s construction in 1851. The pass is signed by George B. McClellan. During the Civil War, McClellan served as a Union General. However, he was cautious or hesitant to attack with full force, leading to significant defeats. In 1862, McClellan’s Peninsula Campaign unraveled after the Seven Days Battles. He also failed to decisively defeat Robert E. Leis Confederate Army at the Battle of Antietam. Frustrated by McClellan, President Lincoln removed him from command in 1862. McClellan later mounted a failed presidential bid against Lincoln in 1864. He was later elected as the governor of New Jersey. 2 x 3.25” Signed by an agent for the railroad on the reverse (illegible). Hole punched, but not through the McClellan autograph.

John Sharp (1820-1891) was a prominent leader in the LDS church in the 19th century in Utah Territory. He came to Salt Lake City in 1850 with other Mormon pioneer parties. Six years later, he was appointed first bishop of the Salt Lake Twentieth Ward and made a member of the LDS Church’s Council of Fifty. At the historic Transcontinental Railroad Golden Spike ceremony at Promontory Summit on May 10, 1869, it was Sharp who was sent by Brigham Young to represent the Mormon Church. Later, he was an officer for this railroad, the Utah Southern and Union Pacific. His practice of plural marriage caused him to be prosecuted for unlawful cohabitation under the Edmunds Act in 1885. Unlike other prominent Mormons charged, Sharp plead guilty and paid a fine. His guilty plea led the church to ask for his resignation as first bishop, which he did. The Utah Central Railroad was the first railroad in the Utah other than the main line of the First Transcontinental Railroad. Built by Mormons, it connected Salt Lake City to the transcontinental line at Ogden. Est. $200-400 HWAC# 134598

Est. $100-300 HWAC# 146168Lot# 4270 Vaughn, Montana 1913 Impression Book for Great Northern Railway Bound volume, 9 x 12 inches, including ~300 pages of correspondence by agents of the Great Northern Railway in Vaughn, Montana, located a few miles west of Great Falls on the north side of the Sun River. It was the southern terminus of the narrow-gauge Great Falls & Canada Railway, which started in the north at Sweet Grass, Montana, on the US-Canada border to transport coal from the mines around Great Falls up to Lethbridge in Alberta, Canada. It was purchased by the Great Northern Railway in 1904. The town that grew around the southern terminus was named Vaughn, after Robert Vaughn, who has established a large ranch in the area in 1869. He sold the ranch in 1890 to Thomas Couch, and it was Couch who platted and named the emerging town after Robert Vaughn. This provides some clue to the date of this document, since the correspondence is clearly labeled as originating in Vaughn, Montana, but the writer seldom included the year in the date line, and if so, only included a single digit. For example, the first page is datelined, “Vaughn, Mont, Aug 1st 3.” Since the town was named in 1910 by Couch, would this date be 1913? The individually numbered pages are canary yellow, very thin onion-skin type paper on which the contents of handwritten and typewritten documents have been copied using some sort of spirit-duplication method. The pages have evidence of water damage, and those in the back of the book are stuck together. Careful conservation methods will be able to separate them. The contents document transactions of the railroad and are written by more than one named agents, most notably C. Parker in the early pages, and J.M. Atwood in later pages. Binding is broken but complete; the back of the book is water damaged with pages adhered together and some black staining. Probably worthy of conserving for the historic information of trade and transportation in Montana in its first decades of statehood.

At its peak the V&T connected Reno to the state capitol of Carson City with spurs down to Minden and up to Virginia City. The V&T was abandon in 1950 due to declining revenue. However, over the years, interest in historic preservation and love for the folklore of the V&T resulted in a public-private partnership which restored 14 miles (almost) along the old V&T route as a summer tourist attraction (“Queen of the Short Lines”), currently choo-choosing from Virginia City through Gold Hill down to US Hwy 50 near Mound House east of Carson City.
