Lee Jacobs of Embassy Auctions International has had unique and eclectic offerings in his sales, but much of the material slated for Thursday, July 25, may take the cake. Coined as the Pieces of History Auction, the event will feature truly unique consignments from all over the country. It will be a live in-house sale with online bidding available through www.liveauctioneers.com and www.invaluable.com. Embassy is located at 5336 Mine Road in Kinzers, Pa., and the sale will start at 7 p.m. Among the featured items will be five items of Marilyn Monroes clothes and accessories with provenance from June DiMaggio and others. Two pieces from the Mary Todd Lincoln estate will include an 18th-century French tall case clock and a Federal mahogany secretary desk owned by Abraham Lincoln. A peace pipe received by Thomas Jefferson as Governor of Virginia with a lock of his hair taken from his deathbed are framed with multiple letters of authentication, sure to garner attention. A heavy ruby beaded necklace weighing at 750 carats, with appraisal certificate, is not something seen at the average sale. A 20-pound meteorite from Argentina will also cross the block, as will John Waynes belt buckle worn during the making of the movie Comancheros. The Last Will and Testaments signed by Roy Rogers and Dale Evans will be on offer, and a 1930s Inuit ensemble of a parka, leggings, boots, gloves, bag and fishing hook sealed in a wood showcase with plexiglass front will also be sold. This comes with a 28-page appraisal. It gets crazier. A large colorized picture of John Wilkes Booth and his sister are in the sale. So are a letter dated 1861 signed by General George McClellan; a ca. 1890 Sioux fully beaded vest; Janis Joplin-signed song lyrics and photo with COA; various prehistoric finds, such as fossils and Megalodon teeth. A signed Theodore Roosevelt letter to Charles Joseph Bonaparte, the Secretary of the Navy, with COA, will be sold, as will a pair of 19th-century carved ivory portraits of George and Martha Washington. There is a fine selection of deer and caribou antler carvings with Iroquois carved moose antlers, an assortment of scrimshaw carvings, and large and small Wooly Mammoth teeth, along with a mammoth tusk. A marked 1861 Civli War belt with heart-shaped buckle and other adornments (probably Confederate), an original Adams Family illustration signed by illustrator and artist Charles Addams (ink wash-on-illustration board), and ca. 1930s Uncle Sam parade costumes will all get attention from bidders. Not to be overlooked is a silk 39 star American flag. There wasnt an official 39 star U.S. flag; however, flag manufacturers betting on early sales misjudged in 1889 by believing the two Dakotas would be admitted as one state and the others would be delayed until after the Fourth of July. Both Dakotas, Montana and Washington were given statehood November 1889, and Idaho was admitted July 3, 1890. So, any 39 star flags in existence were probably made in the fall of 1889.
