Collection of the Roma W. Leland Trust, Washington Court House, Ohio – Lots 1-118 and 418-424

For nearly 70 years Roma Woodmansee Leland of Washington Court House, Ohio, who died in 2009, and her late husband,
John Arthur Leland, were enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and persistent collectors of early American furniture and decorative arts
including, but not limited to, 18th century Chinese porcelain, pewter, paintings, and Oriental rugs. In the 1960s they acquired
many Oriental rugs from the preeminent Oriental rug dealer of the time, Richard Markarian, which will be selling at Skinner in
October. During the same period, the Lelands expanded their collection with numerous acquisitions from well-known antique
dealers and from the sales of Dick Withington, the respected New England auctioneer. Their spacious, cheerful home of Federal
design was built in 1960 to create an appropriate venue for their collection and for them to derive maximum enjoyment from it.
For four decades, John and Roma Leland were popular, familiar figures at the Colonial Williamsburg antique forums. They also
regularly attended antique symposia at Old Deerfield, Massachusetts, Landis Valley, Pennsylvania, and Natchez, Mississippi.

Note: This portrait miniature was likely once owned by the great- $500-700
great-nephew of George Washington, Mr. William Lanier Washington
(1865-1933). In the first quarter of the 20th century, William offered,
at three separate New York City auctions, personal relics and
memorabilia of George Washington. It was thought by some people
that William was a con man who purchased various early 19th
century items and then fraudulently offered them at auction or sold
privately, claiming they were genuine relics of President George
Washington. In the last auction of these items, held at the American
Art Association on February 22, 1922, three portrait miniatures on
ivory of Washington by Italian artist Pia Galli, in rectangular silver
frames, were offered, (lots 85-87). Lot 87 is thought to be the same
one offered here, as it describes that the pose is after one of Gilbert
Stuart’s, and housed in a rectangular silver frame. Also
accompanying the portrait are clipped segments of the title page of
the catalog, and the listing of the three lots of portrait miniatures by
Galli that were offered.

American Samplers, Pictorial Needlework 1650-1850, Alfred A.
Knopf, Inc., 1993, Vol. II, pp. 410-21. These samplers and the one

attending the school of Mrs. Leah (Bratten) Galligher (later Mrs. Leah
Maguire) between 1797 and 1826 at Lancaster, and Harrisburg,
Pennsylvania. On p. 413, fig. 458, Ring notes “the doors of Anne’s
church are open or unworked, and this is typical of samplers made at
Leah Gallagher’s school.” The doors on this sampler as well as the
pine trees are worked the same way.

Painted Pine, Wrought Iron, and Zinc Tavern Sign, Massachusetts,

ornamented with zinc curlicues with gilded points, ht. 53, lg. 56 in.
Note: This tavern sign is likely from the Boylston/West Boylston area
of Massachusetts, which was originally part of Shrewsbury. Philip D.
Zimmerman, in his essay “Reading the Signs: An Object History of
Tavern Signs from Connecticut, 1750-1850,” says signs were meant
to be updated or revitalized when necessary, based on changes in
tavern ownership, etc.; thus surviving signs often exhibit repainting
and altered names and images that testify to the dynamic qualities of
the history and creative processes associated with them. The
Bigelow Inn, which was the original home of the sign, has housed the
West Boylston Historical Society since 1980. It was originally built
around 1780 and run by Abel Bigelow. The “D.W. Taylor Tavern,”
built by David Taylor in the late 18th century, was in the neighboring
town of Boylston.

there was foreign commerce enough to occupy such a vessel.” “She
ran as a packet ship to Liverpool in the summer time and as a cotton
ship from New Orleans in the winter. The ship was a success, living
21 years and ended her existence in freighting coal to the
Mediterranean.”

 Skinner, Inc. - Conditions of Sale
1. Some of the lots in this sale are offered subject to a reserve. The reserve is a confidential minimum price agreed upon by the consignor and
Skinner, Inc. below which the lot will not be sold. In most cases, the reserve will be set below the estimated range, but in no case will it exceed
the estimates listed. A representative of Skinner, Inc. will execute such reserves by bidding for the consignor. In any event and whether or not a
lot is subject to a reserve, the auctioneer may reject any bid or raise not commensurate with the value of such lot.

2. All property is sold “as is,” and neither the auctioneer nor any consignor makes any warranties or representation of any kind or nature with
respect to the property, and in no event shall they be responsible for the correctness, nor deemed to have made any representation or warranty, of
description, genuineness, authorship, attribution, provenance, period, culture, source, origin, or condition of the property and no statement made
at the sale, or in the bill of sale, or invoice or elsewhere shall be deemed such a warranty of representation or an assumption of liability.

3. Except as provided in paragraph 1 above, the highest bidder as determined by the auctioneer shall be the purchaser. In the case of a disputed
