Property of a direct descendant of Founding Father Thomas Jefferson, the contents of the Brick House at Coolidge Point, Manchester-by-the-Sea, Massachusetts

In

1871 Thomas Jefferson Coolidge bought “… a wild promontory surrounded by the ocean”

known as Goldsmith’s Farm. The 116 acres cost $12,000.00, which is approximately $262,500.00 today. It has long since been known as Coolidge Point. Continuing a family tradition of civic-minded philanthropy and conservation, much of the land has been gifted and preserved.

In 1824 Bostonian Joseph Coolidge, Jr. (1798-1879) visited Monticello and was introduced to Thomas Jefferson’s granddaughter, Ellen Wayles Randolph. They were married May 27, 1825 at Monticello and lived in Boston. Mr. Coolidge was involved in the China trade at August Heard & Co. His son Thomas Jefferson Coolidge (1831-1920), Jefferson’s great-grandson, was a successful businessman. He was involved in textiles, including the Amoskeag Mills in Manchester, New Hampshire, as well as banking, railroads, electricity, and the United Fruit Company. Like his greatgrandfather, he served as U.S. ambassador to France in 1892. In 1904 Coolidge retained his friend Charles F. McKim, of the New York architectural firm McKim, Mead & White, to design and build a summer home called “The Marble Palace”. It was known for its massive Ionic columns and was continuously used until its 1958 demolition.

Among the contents of the Brick House, a former family residence on Coolidge Point, are furniture, rugs and decorative items removed from the Marble Palace, many of which are presented here. Thomas Jefferson Coolidge acquired most of the Jeffersonian armorial porcelain also included in this sale.

The Thomas Jefferson “J” Chinese Export Service Lots 49-72

Presented here are 25 lots of the storied circa 1790 Chinese Export “J” dinner service, long associated with Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826), the third President of the United States. While historians have yet to discover documentation that links Jefferson to this particular pattern, the “J” dinner service is included in Margaret Brown Klapthor’s Official White House China (1984), considered the definitive guide to Presidential china patterns, and it has been on display as Jefferson’s service at Monticello, the White House and other American State Department facilities. Jefferson’s 19th Century descendants also firmly believed it was his service and sought to re-acquire it, a few generations after Jefferson’s grandchildren had auctioned off most of his personal belongings to pay down the $100,000 debt he had left at the time of his death.

At the center of all the pieces is a gilt script “J” enclosed within a shield with a blue outline studded with thirteen gilt stars, surmounted by a knight’s helm set on a garlanded arabesque. The deep blue rims are trimmed with a gilt fleur-de-lis border.

New England tonalist landscape painter Edward Mitchell Bannister was one of the first American Black men to win an important national art award, when he took first prize at the 1876 Philadelphia Centennial Exposition.

Bannister, born in New Brunswick, Canada, took a job at sea shortly after the death of his mother in 1844. He settled in Boston around 1848, where he became a barber and

learned to paint, though his formal studies were limited.

Bannister often remarked that the judges at Philadelphia Exposition were so indignant a Black man had won they wanted to “reconsider” the award, but his fellow competitors upheld Bannister’s prize. The painting, “Under the Oaks”, was later sold in Boston for $1,500, a considerable price at the time. (Intriguingly, the painting has not been seen since the turn of the century.) Bannister’s reputation grew rapidly following the Exposition, and more awards and honors soon followed, allowing him to work exclusively as a painter.

By 1869 or 1870 he and his wife had moved to Providence, Rhode Island, where they were prominent members of the Black American cultural and political communities.

Bannister co-founded the Providence Art Club and was an original board member of the Rhode Island School of Design.

Advice to Bidders

A.

1. Carefully read the Conditions of Sale.

B.

C.

LEMUEL D. ELDRED Massachusetts, 1848-1921 In our opinion, this is a work by the artist.

ATTRIBUTED TO LEMUEL D. ELDRED Massachusetts, 1848-1921 In our opinion, probably a work by the artist based on the style of the piece, however, the work lacks a signature, marking or adequate provenance to fully ascribe it.

MANNER OF LEMUEL D. ELDRED Massachusetts, 1848-1921 In our opinion, a work made in the style of the artist listed, most likely by a follower or student.

D. SCHOOL OF LEMUEL D. ELDRED

Late 19th Century In our opinion, a work executed at the time and in the style of the artist listed.

E.

AFTER LEMUEL D. ELDRED 20th Century In our opinion, a work made in the style of the artist listed, but not by the artist. Often used to describe a direct reproduction of an original work of art.

Ascribing Date of Origin If a date and location are included in a heading, it is our opinion the piece is essentially of the period and was made in the area indicated. The inclusion of the world “style” in the heading indicates the piece was made at a later date as an intentional reproduction of the earlier style.

CONDITIONS OF SALE 1. CORRECTNESS OF DESCRIPTION: Robert C. Eldred Co., Inc. (hereinafter referred to as Eldred’s) has exercised reasonable care to catalog and describe correctly the property to be sold, but neither Eldred’s nor its consignors warrant the correctness of description, attribution, authenticity, or condition of said property.

No statements shall be deemed such a warranty or representation or an assumption of liability with respect thereto, but are to be construed as opinions only. Bidders are encouraged to personally examine all property to be sold prior to the beginning of the auction.

2. Unless otherwise announced by the auctioneer at the time of sale, all bids are per lot as numbered.

3. Eldred’s reserves the right to withdraw any property before the sale.

4. DETERMINATION OF HIGHEST BIDDER: The highest bidder accepted by the auctioneer shall be the buyer. In the event of any dispute between bidders, the auctioneer may determine who is the successful bidder or the auctioneer may re-offer the article in dispute and his decision shall be final.

5. REJECTION OF BIDS: The auctioneer reserves the right to reject any nominal raise or any bid or raise which, in his opinion, is not commensurate with the value of the article being offered. At his discretion, he may also reject any nominal raise or any bid that he may determine as having a detrimental effect on the item in question or the sale as a whole. Eldred’s may refuse to issue bidding privileges to any person not in good credit standing with Eldred’s, or to any person who is deemed by Eldred’s in its sole discretion, to be disruptive of or harmful to established auction practices, either before or after the acceptance of bids or the fall of the hammer.

6. TITLE: Except as herein otherwise provided, title will pass to the highest bidder as determined by the auctioneer, and the property is thereafter at the purchaser’s sole risk and responsibility.

7. PAYMENT: On title passing to the highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer, and subject to all the conditions set forth herein, such bidder will thereupon pay the full purchase price. Payment in full is due at the time of sale. Any bills not paid in full within 25 days of the date of the sale will accrue interest at a rate of 1.5% per month. In addition, the purchaser may be subject to one or more of the following actions: a) Any and all legal remedies available to Eldred’s and its consignors by law including without limitation the right to hold the purchaser liable for the total purchase price; b) Immediate cancellation of the sale, with Eldred’s retaining as liquidated damages all payments made by the purchaser; c) Resale of the property at public auction, wherein the original purchaser shall be liable for any deficiency, costs, and Eldred’s commission on both sales. At Eldred’s option, payment will not be deemed to have been made in full until Eldred’s has collected funds represented by checks, or in the case of bank or cashier’s checks, their authenticity has been confirmed.

A buyer’s premium will be added to the hammer price to be paid by the buyer as part of the purchase price.

8. ORDER BIDS: Subject to these Conditions of Sale and to such terms and conditions as it may prescribe, but at no charge to the customer, Eldred’s will undertake to execute all order bids submitted to it by a customer who has established credit with said company.

such a bid whether it be due to equipment failure, loss of connection, or failure to hear or understand the bidder’s directions.

EXCEPTION: Eldred’s will not be held responsible for damage to picture frames or lampshades.
