Trainer Promotional Hologram Trading Card Was Given To Winners Of 1998’s CoroCoro Comic Illustration Contest In Japan A Nintendo Pokémon “Pikachu Illustrator” trainer promotional hologram trading card, graded in Mint 9 condition and given to a winner at the 1998 CoroCoro Comic Illustration Contest in Japan, soared to $224,250 (a new world auction record) at an auction held Oct. 23, by Weiss Auctions, online and in the firm’s gallery at 74 Merrick Road in Lynbrook, N.Y. Fan-favorite Pikachu starred on what is inarguably the most valuable and rarest Pokémon card in the world. Although the technical name for the card is “Pokémon Illustrator,” it is typically referred to as “Pikachu Illustrator” due to the image. What makes it so rare is that it wasn’t sold but awarded as a prize at the illustration contest through CoroCoro Comic. Only a few were produced. The card, specifically for the contest in 1998, was awarded to the three

Chinese Vase Purchased For One Pound In U.K. Charity Shop Sells For £484,000 ($487,955)
16th Annual Christmas Antiques Show In Oldwick, N.J., Scheduled For Dec. 7 And 8 on page 6
Sworders Sold Vase In Essex On Nov. 8 A Chinese vase bought for just one pound in a charity shop has sold for a staggering £484,000 (U.S. $487,955) on Nov. 8 after it emerged that it was made for an 18th-century emperor. One pound sterling currently equals roughly 1.28 U.S. dollars. The lucky shopper, unaware of its significance, listed the small yellow vase on eBay only to be inundated with messages and bids, and quickly removed it from the site and took it to Sworders Fine Art Auctioneers’ in Stansted Mountfitchet, Essex. The auction house studied the 8-inch-tall vase and identified it as being Chinese imperial and made for the Qianlong Emperor, who reigned from 1735 to 1796. The Qianlong famille rose vase is marked with a symbol that meant it wasn’t for export, but for one of the emperor’s palaces. It is inscribed with an imperial poem that “praises incense” and two iron-red seal marks that read, “Qianlong chen han,” or, “The
Last Home Designed by Frank Lloyd Wright Sold For $1.67 Million By Heritage Auctions on page 6
Qianlong Emperor’s own mark.” It also reads, “Weijing weiyi,” which translates to “Be precise, be undivided.” The pear-shaped vase is designed to be attached to a wall, with a flat back and floral decoration on the front. Its yellow color is significant, as this was a special color reserved for the emperor. The unnamed consignor spotted it on sale for one pound in a charity shop in Hertfordshire. The successful Chinese buyer bid a hammer price of £380,000, with extra fees taking the overall figure paid to £484,000. Continued on page 2

The rest of the auction had 500 interesting, fresh-tothe-market lots, in categories that included sports, cards, comic books, comic art, animation, Disney memorabilia and more. The runner-up top lot was a genuine Superman

rarity, the complete five-volume set of Science Fiction Fanzine #1-5, including “The Reign of Superman” (1933-34), by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster ($44,070). It was just the third time that Weiss Auctions had ever offered the set in its entirety. Two of the issues were signed by Siegel, one as “Jerome Siegel” in blue pencil on an editorial page, and one as part of a pencil note to a subscriber. Some
“He (the consignor) was unaware of its significance, so he put it on eBay with a very low starting price to begin with, and there was a lot of interest,” said Yexue Li, head
ground. It’s a high quality vase because it was court commissioned, so it would have been of a high value when it was made,” continued Li. “This has been the perfect auction story: a bargain find, a culturally important
of the Asian art department at Sworders. “He decided to take the vase off eBay and brought it in to us to take a look. He was shocked and very excited when we explained its importance. The vase is special because it comes with the inscription by the Qianlong Emperor, and he must have commissioned this vase. The enamel on the vase is special because it uses yangcai (foreign) enamels on a yellow
and beautiful work of art and a life changing sum of money for the vendor. He is understandably ecstatic,” furthered Li. The Qianlong Emperor was the sixth emperor of the Qing dynasty. He abdicated in favor of his son, the Jiaqing Emperor, and died three years later at age 87 in 1799. For more information, visit www.sworder.co.uk.

So today we set out to hit the antiques co-ops to try and find a flowerpot. Okay, a bit trivial, but I have a cyclamen that I have been getting some good blooms out of, and it needs a bigger pot. I love cyclamen, particularly at the holidays. About 30 years ago, I was fortunate enough to be a guest of one of the DuPonts in their private home. While waiting in the solarium, I observed a bank of blooming cyclamen that was truly over the top. Since then, I try and have some colonies blooming in my home for the holidays. And this little guy from last year is looking good but a bit pot bound. We headed out hoping that I could find a cheap Chinese flowerpot for the flower. I love hitting the malls for flowerpots, as you can often find those Chinatown hospitality gifts from the 1950s. So off we went. The first mall had a lot of stuff put out by a decorator dealer. I use the term decorator dealer since the booth is always set up like an interior decorator’s showcase. Such booths usually leave me cold as they feature highly finished, newly made secondhand furnishings. But they do often have flowerpots of some quality. This one did not have any flowerpots, but they did have a table lot of sterling silver candlesticks and nut dishes. They were clearly wedding gifts from the late 1950s or early ’60s, but priced at $10 to $15 per bowl and pair of sticks, they came home. At that price,
So, I arrived at the checkout. The pile of treasures ended up in two shopping bags. I was out about $90. And guess what, not a single flowerpot. Maybe better luck next week.

the candlesticks can sit on a windowsill with a hurricane globe and look awesome for the holidays. Okay, a couple of booths later we hit a kitchen collectible dealer. Again, another likely source of flowerpots. A quick look revealed nothing, but our youngest daughter, Mary, who loves cooking tools, found a real treasure—a mounted ice grinder from the 1960s in the shape of a rocket complete with rocket fins. Very cool and perfect for her growing kitchen collection. Our next stop was a general dealers booth, a bit of a crapshoot, but you never know. No flowerpots, but eldest daughter, Jane, found a vintage camera for her collection. Cameras are fun to collect because they have both great design elements and tell the changing story of photo technology. So the vintage camera came home. Okay, our last hope was a gardening designer decorator booth with its share of ubiquitous rusty newly made garden animals. Positioned in the front window of the co-op, and you would think a flowerpot would have to be there. No such luck. But my wife, Kim, found a lovely blown glass decanter. A good period piece, and for $15 bucks, it had to come home. In the midst of this, our youngest daughter found a vintage toy for her best friend for Christmas. Okay, for $5, the price was right.

LancasterHistory Opens New Exhibition “Lancaster In The ’60s� Exhibition Will Focus On Pivotal ’60s Decades Throughout Lancaster County’s History LancasterHistory has a new exhibition, “Lancaster in the ’60s,� now open to the public. “Lancaster in the ’60s� examines the issues of conflict, resolution, and protest against the backdrop of four pivotal decades - the 1660s, 1760s, 1860s, and 1960s, in Lancaster County’s history. “Lancaster in the ’60s� replaces the previous exhibition, “Freedom: ‘to secure the Blessings of Liberty’� in Groff Gallery and is the third major exhibition at LancasterHistory since the completion of its new facility at 230 N. President Ave. in 2013, in Lancaster, Pa. To share the stories each ‘60s decade has to offer,
LancasterHistory’s Groff Gallery will be transformed into a vibrant, chronological timeline that examines key issues of conflict and change within
Susquehanna Valley, immigration from Europe, and religious tolerance in the newly formed Pennsylvania. 1760s: Life
each era, supported by historic artifacts and archival materials from LancasterHistory’s collections or on loan from other institutions and individuals. Highlights and topics in “Lancaster in the ’60s� include the following: 1660s: Everyday life for Native American tribes in the
in Lancaster on the frontier, the tragic massacre of the Conestoga Indians, and the arrival of German and English refugees escaping religious persecution. 1860s: The final months of James Buchanan’s presidency, the Civil War, the political advocacy of Thaddeus Stevens, and
the growing impact of media, consumerism, and factories. 1960s: The Civil Rights Movement, urban renewal in Lancaster County, the Vietnam War, Franklin & Marshall College shifts to co-education, the Clair Brothers put Lancaster on the music industry map, and Armstrong World Industries begins to “floor America.� In addition to the four historical decades, a section of the exhibition will be devoted to the 2060s and invite visitors of all ages to engage with interactive elements as well as to predict what Lancaster will look and feel like in 2060. “Lancaster in the ’60s� will also feature kid-friendly
elements and activities. Children will have opportunities to engage with LancasterHistory’s History Explorers mascot Harpot the Cat throughout the exhibit. In colorful, cartoon illustrations, Harpo will don ’60s-era outfits and encourage children to think critically about the time periods as well as put themselves in the shoes of past Lancastrians. A Discovery Cart will also be made available on select Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., allowing children to get up-close to and handle period clothes and artifacts. “Lancaster in the ’60s� would not be possible without the support of the following
community-minded partners: The National Endowment for the Humanities, The Pennsylvania Historical & Museum Commission, Willow Valley Communities, Saxton & Stump, Armstrong World Industries, Franklin & Marshall College, and Clair Global. Educational activities are supported by the Abigail L. Longenecker Memorial Foundation. LancasterHistory thanks all sponsors for their support and generosity. Hours are Monday to Saturday from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is included with the purchase of a general admissions ticket or a galleries-only ticket. LancasterHistory members are admitted for free of charge. For directions or additional information, readers may visit www.lancasterhistory.org.
Portraits Of Lt. Col. And Mrs. Lotz Bring $11,400 In Kempton A pair of antique watercolor portraits most likely by Jacob Maentel sold for a combined $11,400 at a David Loeb sale held Nov. 16 at the Kempton Community Center in the northern Berks County, Pa., town of Kempton. On the back read, “Great Grandfather Lotz/ died May 10, 1824/ age 54 years /38 yrs old when taken 1808.� And, on reverse of the other read, “Great Grandmother Lotz/ died Dec. 3, 1837 /aged 65 years/ 37 years old when taken 1808.� The portraits were consigned to the unadvertised general household sale by the daughter of the late Alvin
Adam. Adam was the caretaker of the Esther Ludwig estate. Ludwig (1906-2005) owned a horse farm south of Hamburg, was a major collector, and left a lasting philanthropic legacy in the form of scholarships for Shoemakersville area public school students. There was an on-site sale for the Ludwig estate, and also Freeman’s held a sale on Nov. 22, 2005. It is possible the portraits came from Ludwig, but not via either auction. Auctioneer David Loeb of Lenhartsville, Pa., stated he went to school with the consignor and the two were in the same graduating high school class. The subjects were John Lotz (1770-1824) of Reading, Pa. Lt. Col. Lotz served in the 2nd

The two were married in 1794. The profile portraits with landscape backgrounds are stylistically in keeping with the work of Maentel, who is believed to have emigrated to the country in 1805, three years prior to when it is thought these were done. The golden era of discoveries may be in the distant past, but there are still great things out there to be found.

COIN & SILVER BULLION PUBLIC AUCTION

Large Sale To Take Place In Downingtown, Pa., On Dec. 7 By Noel Barrett Antique toys and other amusements seems a perfect title for our Saturday, Dec. 7, sale. Along with our usual array of playthings from the past, we have a fascinating group of Coney Island, Atlantic City, Steel Pier, and other amusement park items from the eclectic collection of the late Henry Fox. Before I went into the auction business some 30 years ago, I had an antique shop in Carversville, Pa., a little village in Bucks County. Rosebud Antiques offered a wide variety of toys, advertising, and all manner of memorabilia, both large and small. Off the beaten track, the store was less of a store and more of a base of operations for my buying at shows and antique markets throughout the country. Not much foot traffic, but more than a few interesting customers finding their way to our doorstep. Henry Fox and his wife, Joann, found me on one of their Bucks County buying forays, and I found a soulmate. I always loved big and crazy things, a taste that you can only indulge if you have space. I had
30-by-60 feet, the first floor of an old general store, so the shop was a magnet for “big.” Henry loved “big,” and he wanted the giant Regal boot I had. And I had a customer who shared my taste. I visited his home once while he was still alive, one of only two people he ever shared his collection with. I loved amusement parks as a kid. Henry did too, and among his treasures are items from Coney Island and Atlantic City, including the Steel Peer. Coney treasures include the three-figure mechanical display, “The Gambling Chimps.” It was displayed in the front window of a boardwalk fun house in the early 1920s. Among the other animated displays inside the fun house was a “Magician with Levitating Lady” automaton, one of Henry’s favorite pieces that he restored to working condition. Further down the beach was “The Spook House” dark-ride. This is where Henry found the giant animated gorilla head and other spooky denizens of the dark for his collection. We have photos of both the large gorilla as seen on the ride and the chimps in the fun house window. Fortune telling
machines and other penny arcade coin-ops also found a home in the Fox collection. My comic character collection included handcrafted cigarette ashtray smoking stands of Popeye, Jiggs & Maggie, etc., some of which are pictured in a coffee table book on smoking paraphernalia. A Bucks County folk art collector I never knew and lived only 20 minutes from saw the book and decided to consign some of her stands with us. Her collection really out-classed mine, truly idiosyncratic pieces, each one-ofa-kind. I am thankful that these

will be on offer. Included are German bisque and Italian Lenci dolls, and room boxes contribute to the diversity of the sale. The Fox collection included a nice grouping of Halloween items and unusual Santa Claus figures. Two other holiday collections round out the Fox items as nice selections of Halloween and Christmas pieces. It’s always exciting when fooling around with antique toys to happen upon something one has never seen. A new find for me is “The Careless Engineer.” The illustrated label on sliding box lid indicates a
patent date April 23, 1871, but gives no idea as to its maker. Pieces, when assembled, create a colorful steam plant in paper on wood with a painted tin boiler. The “brick” base houses a robust Ives style clockwork mechanism, and the fly wheel spins at tremendous speed until something goes awry and the boiler blows, a tin section flies off and the whole structure collapses, thus “the careless engineer,” a great find by one of our lucky consignors. A late addition to the sale is a McLoughlin Bros. “Bulls and Bears - The Great Wall St. Game,” patented 1883, with a vibrant lithograph box lid of a dressed bull and bear standing on Wall Street. The original folding board includes comic portrait vignettes of Gilded Age stock market characters Jay Gould, Cornelius Vanderbilt and Horace Greely. The box is complete with packing inserts. What a treasure to find one in such

Giving Thanks For Betty Smack Dab In The Middle: Design Trends Of The Mid-20th Century By Donald-Brian Johnson Thanksgiving dinner at my house? Why, sure. Say, could you bring the rolls? And the cranberries? And the vegetables
and mashed potatoes? Oh, and the turkey and stuffing. And a pumpkin pie would be nice. Hey, come back here! Once again, “dinner at Don’s” is doomed. The thing
is, I can’t cook. Not a lick. I would if I could, but I can’t. Not that I haven’t tried, but food entering our kitchen always seems to suffer a mysterious fate. It spoils. It melts. Sometimes it even bursts into
unexpected flames. You’ve heard of folks who “can’t boil water”? That’s me. I tried it once and ended up scorching the saucepan. That’s why I’m always a bit jealous of people who can

With Betty,” and, from 1971, “Betty’s Recipe Card Library.” The “Betty” in question? Why, Betty Crocker, of course! If Betty couldn’t transform me from Kitchen Klutz into Chef Boy-Are-Don, then nobody could! So, I bought them. In “Entertaining,” Betty gets things off to a cheery start: “Here is a book about hospitality, and how it can be easy and fun.” Sounds encouraging. First, Betty answers a few pesky preparty-planning inquiries: Question: “Is it all right to invite guests of different political persuasions?” Answer: “It is never amiss to say, ‘Joe is working hard on the election – and not for your candidate. But forgive him that, and you’ll enjoy him.’” Soon though, she gets down to the real meat-and-potatoes of the thing: those recipes! These are divided into numerous helpful categories: “Buffet Dinners,” “House Parties,” “Come This is a pilgrim couple as envisioned by By For Dessert and California ceramist, “Kaye.” The tallest figure is Coffee,” and “Midnight Suppers” (not to be con11 inches high, est. $50-$75/pr. fused with “Stag Parties,” the category that follows it). The recipes seemed straightforward enough, so I decided to give one that Betty lists under “Emergency Meals” a try: “Flaming Chicken.” Ingredients included Bing cherries, Mandarin oranges, butter, and black pepper. Oh, and chicken. Betty’s final instruction: “Brush chicken with 2 tsp. lemon extract, and touch burning match to it.” I did. My “Flaming Chicken” went down in flames. At Thanksgiving, everyone gives thanks except On to the recipe cards! Nestled in their very the turkey. Cover of “Ideals” magazine, from Continued on page 15 Thanksgiving 1949, est. $25-$30.

own sturdy hard plastic box (color choices ranged from sunshine yellow to avocado green), the 648 index cards are carefully organized by category. Some categories (“American Classics,” “Seasonal Favorites”) are timeless. Others revel in their 1971 underpinnings. “ M e n ’ s Favorites,” for instance: “When he yearns for food like mother used to make, bring on your ‘ C h i c k e n Fricassee with Dumplings,’ light as a cloud. If he insists the simple things in life are best, wait till he tastes your ‘ S a v o r y Duckling on a Spit!’” One side of each card provides the recipe, plus novel serving suggestions
