Description
James Hamilton passed away less then a month ago. Over many decades James researched the Herrmann family and was the leading authority on the subject. He even portrayed Alexander Herrmann in a very endearing period act. Generously, James gifted a number of items to close friends before he died. Regarding the rest of his collection, it was his wish that the remaining pieces be auctioned by Haversat and Ewing Galleries. While his collection was not large, it contained very important pieces relating to the Herrmann's including 30 related lots that are featured in our June 23-24 auction. We had scheduled a regular summer auction, however because of James' recent death, we postponed that auction and will offer 90 lots from his estate for Part I of the Hamilton auction. Please note, proceeds from the sale of these items will go for the restoration and upkeep of the Herrmann family plot at the Woodlawn Cemetery where James Hamilton's ashes will have their final resting place as well.
