COLLINS, MICHAEL

Typed letter signed in Irish (“Miceal O Coileain”), one page, on Rialtas Sealadach Na Heireann (Irish Provisional Government) letterhead, April 25, 1922. In this letter, written four months prior to his death, Collins writes to Michael J. O’Donnell, Esq., apologizing for not being able to meet with him regarding issues of government, and promising to have the Ministers for Local Government and Agriculture contact him to follow up. With additional manuscript note in Collins’s hand below his signature stating, “my secretary here took it for granted that you would have called on me without notification.”

[Together with:] Typed letter signed (“Elayna”), one page, on Dail Eireann, Department of Finance letterhead, July 30, 1921. From Michael Collins’s secretary to Michael J. O’Donnell during Collins’s tenure as Minister of Finance for Dail Eireann.

Michael Collins was an Irish revolutionary leader and major figure in Ireland’s struggle for independence against Britain. Most documents from this period were destroyed, lost or discarded and thus records such as the two letters included in this lot are considered particularly rare. Collins held numerous positions within the government throughout his career. He acted as the Minister for Finance and Home Affairs, Chairman of the Provisional Government (Rialtas Sealadach Na Heireann), which he was responsible for establishing, and Teachta Dala in the First Dail of 1919, as well as Adjutant General, Director of Intelligence, and Director of Organization and Arms Procurement for the IRA. Additionally, he was one of the signatories of the Anglo-Irish Treaty, signed in December 1921, and he was at the time of his death both President of the Irish Republican Brotherhood and Commander-in-Chief of the National Army. Collins was shot and killed when anti-Treaty attackers ambushed his convoy in August 1922, during the Irish Civil War. The circumstances surrounding his death are not well documented and are considered somewhat of a mystery.

Property from the Collection of James Bennett, Peru, Illinois Provenance: Major Christopher Congreve, youngest son of General Sir Walter N. Congreve, V.C. (1862-1927) Sold: Christies, South Kensington, April 12, 1996, Lot 42 Literature: Churchill at this time was minister of munitions in Lloyd George’s Government, concentrating on the production of thousands of tanks. The map illustrates the following period of the war when on “August 8 the British Fourth Army, commanded by General Rawlinson, launched a new offensive; British, Canadian and Australian troops all took part... By night fall on August 8 the tank attack had broken through the German front-line trenches; 400 German guns and nearly 22,000 soldiers were captured... By August 10 the British Army had made further advances, taking another 10,000 prisoners. ‘The tide has turned,’ Churchill wrote to Clementine that day... With each British advance Churchill went to the scene to see how his shells, mustard gas, and tanks had been used, or misused... On October 15, exhausted by the bloodletting, faced with widespread starvation as a result of the Allied sea blockade, and fearing a total collapse of the Balkan front, the Germans asked for an armistice... On November 7 a German delegation crossed into the French lines... On November 10 Lloyd George invited Churchill to a special Cabinet meeting to discuss the course of these negotiations... At 5 o’clock the next morning the Germans accepted the Allied terms” (Martin Gilbert, Churchill, 1991, pp. 393-402). $5,000-7,000

(CHICAGO. RAILROAD) ROCK ISLAND ROUTE

Chicago, Rock-Island & Pacific -- Rocky Mountain Limited.

A reverse glass and mother-of-pearl inlaid sign created for the Rock Island System Railroad, Detroit Photographic Co., 1900, featuring a train with figures in traditional early nineteenth-century American dress against a town along the foothills of Pikes Peak, which is shown in the background, eglomise border with gilt title Rock Island System, each car with different name on the side.

In the late 1800s, Andrea T. Gavell, a veteran train car maker for the Rock Island Railroad System, developed a technique for working on the glass faces of a number of clocks, which were later put into executive offices. Due to the rising demand for mother-of-pearl inlays, the company obtained bids on a commercial basis to produce 50 signs over a period of two years for $50.00 each. The signs were painted by hand using a black and white photo taken by the Detroit Photographic Co. and copyrighted in 1900.

The present sign, which once adorned the walls of company stations, is one of only a few known to exist today.

WRIGHT, FRANK LLOYD

Autographed letter signed (“F.L.L.W.”), four pages, on a bifolium, on Jokake Inn letterhead, Jokake, Arizona, [ca. 1925]. In this letter, Wright asks architect “Edgar” [Tafel] to convey his response to the suggestion that he design a building for his alma mater, the University of Wisconsin, spelling out his commission and other requirements, providing his rationale for the requirements, suggesting that the practical outlook of the University would make engaging him as likely as engaging “Jesus of Nazareth” for their commencement ceremonies, and closing on a note of optimism about the project.

In 1925, Wright was employed by the University of Wisconsin to design the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity house, but the following year, the Phi Gamma Delta alumni board dismissed him before his design could be executed. Although Wright attended the University of Wisconsin, he left the program in 1887 and did not receive a degree until 1955, when the University awarded him an honorary Doctorate of Fine Arts.

At that time, you may make an appointment to bring your property or photographs, along with any other pertinent information, to Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. and we will be happy to provide you with complimentary estimates and advice. If you have a large collection, an appointment may be made to evaluate the property on-site. Fees for on-site visits may vary.

Standard Commission Rates Our standard rate of commission is equal to ten percent (10%) of the hammer price on each lot sold for $5,001 or more; fifteen percent (15%) of the hammer price on each lot sold for $2,001 or more but less than $5,001; and twenty-five percent (25%) of the hammer price on each lot sold for $2000 and less with a minimum commission of $25 per lot sold. If your property fails to reach the reserve price agreed upon between you and Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc., you may be obligated to pay a reduced commission rate of five percent (5%) of the reserve price.

Appraisals Appraisals can be arranged for insurance, donation, estate tax, family division or other purposes. Appraisal fees vary according to circumstances. Please contact our Estates and Appraisals Department at 312.280.1212 for further information.

Guide for Prospective Buyers Conditions of Sale Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. encourages all prospective buyers to read the Conditions of Sale printed in this catalogue.

Exhibitions Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. recommends that all prospective buyers attend the pre-sale exhibition prior to the auction. Staff members are available at our pre-sale exhibitions to advise prospective buyers on particular objects or on any aspect of the bidding process.

Estimates Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. provides catalogue descriptions and pre-auction estimates for each lot included in the sale. These estimates are a guide for prospective bidders. They are not definitive. All pre-sale estimates are subject to revision.

Condition Reports We are happy to provide a condition report for lots with a low estimate of $300 and above. Nevertheless, intending buyers are reminded that condition reports are statements of our opinion only, and that each lot is sold “AS IS,” per our Conditions of Sale, as outlined in the back of this catalogue. All lots should be viewed personally by prospective buyers or their agents to evaluate the condition of the property offered for sale due to the highly subjective nature of condition reports.

AS AGENT The lots listed in this catalogue will be offered by Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. as owner or as agent for consignor(s) subject to the following terms and conditions. By bidding at auction you agree to be bound by these Conditions of Sale.

BEFORE THE SALE Prospective buyers are strongly advised to personally examine any property in which they are interested before the auction takes place. Condition reports are usually available on request, on lots with a low estimate of $300 and above.

All lots are sold “AS IS” and without recourse and neither Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. nor its consignor(s) makes any warranties or representations, express or implied with respect to such lots. Neither Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. nor its consignor(s) makes any express or implied warranty or representation of any kind or nature with respect to merchantability, fitness for purpose, correctness of the catalogue or other description of the physical condition, size, quality, rarity, importance, medium, material, genuineness, attribution, provenance, period, culture, source, origin, exhibitions, literature or historical significance of any lot sold. The absence of any reference to the condition of a lot does not imply that the lot is in perfect condition or completely free from wear and tear, imperfections or the effects of aging. No statement, whether written or oral, and whether made in the catalogue, or in supplements to the catalogue, an advertisement, a bill of sale, a salesroom posting or announcement, the remarks of an auctioneer, or otherwise, shall be deemed to create any warranty, representation or assumption of liability. Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. and its consignor(s) make no warranty or representation, express or implied, that the purchaser will acquire any copyright or reproduction rights to any lot sold. Leslie Hindman Auctioneers Inc. expressly reserves the right to reproduce any image of the lots sold in the catalogue.

AT THE SALE Refusal of Admission Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. has the right, at our complete discretion, to refuse admission to the premises or participation in any auction and to reject any bid.

Registration before Bidding A prospective buyer must complete and sign a registration form and provide identification before bidding. We may require bank or other financial references.

Bidding as Principal When making a bid, a bidder is accepting personal liability to pay the purchase price, including the buyer’s premium, all applicable taxes and all other applicable charges, unless it has been explicitly agreed upon in writing with Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. before the commencement of the sale that the bidder is acting as agent on behalf of an identified third party acceptable to Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc., and that Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. will only look to the principal for payment.

Absentee Bids We will use reasonable efforts to carry out written bids given to us at least 24 hours prior to the sale for the convenience of clients who are not present at the auction in person, by an agent or by telephone. Bids must be placed in U.S. dollars. If we receive written bids on a particular lot for identical amounts, and these are the highest bids on the lot at the auction, it will be sold to the person whose written bid was received and accepted first. Execution of written bids is a free service undertaken subject to other commitments at the time of the sale and we do not accept liability for failing to execute a written bid or for errors and omissions in connection with the written bid.

Telephone Bids On lots with a low estimate of $300 and above and if a prospective buyer makes arrangements with us prior to the commencement of the sale we will use reasonable efforts to contact them to enable them to participate in the bidding by telephone and we do not accept liability for failure to do so or for errors and omissions in connection with telephone bidding. These telephone bids may be recorded at the discretion of Leslie Hindman Auctioneers.

Online Bids We will use reasonable efforts to carry out online bids and do not accept liability for equipment failure, inability to access the Internet or software malfunctions related to the execution of online bids.

Reserves Some lots in the sale are subject to a reserve which is the confidential minimum price below which such lot will not be sold. The reserve will not exceed the low estimate of the lot. Reserves are agreed upon with consignors or, in the absence thereof, the absolute discretion of Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. The auctioneer may open the bidding on any lot below the reserve by placing a bid on behalf of the seller. The auctioneer may continue to bid on behalf of the seller up to the amount of the reserve, either by placing consecutive bids or by placing bids in response to other bidders. With respect to lots that are offered without reserve, unless there are already competing bids, the auctioneer, in his or her discretion, will generally open the bidding at half of the low estimate for the lot.

In the absence of a bid at that level, the auctioneer may proceed backwards at his or her discretion until a bid is recognized, and then continue up from that amount.

Auctioneer’s Discretion The auctioneer has the right at his or her absolute and sole discretion to refuse any bid, to advance the bidding in such a manner as he or she may decide, to withdraw any lot, and in the case of error or dispute, and whether during or after the sale, to determine the successful bidder, to continue the bidding, to cancel the sale or to reoffer and resell the item in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, our sale record is conclusive.

Successful Bid The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer will be the purchaser.

In the case of a tie bid, the winning bidder will determined by the auctioneer at his or her sole discretion. In the event of a dispute between bidders, the auctioneer has final discretion to determine the successful bidder or to reoffer the lot in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, the Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. sale record shall be conclusive. Title passes upon the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer to the highest acknowledged bidder subject to the Conditions of Sale set forth herein, and the bidder assumes full risk and responsibility.
