Hammerslough Collection Antique American Silver Catalog #4 - Limited Edition

Description

American Silver Collected by Philip H. Hammerslough. Volume IV.
Privately Printed: 1973. Edition limited to 350 copies.
The last of a series of four catalogs of one of the finest and most famous private American silver collections. Four catalogs were published over a 15-year span, each apparently the final one, except that Philip Hammerslough went out and just kept buying more great pieces of silver. Philip Hammerslough, a tobacco magnate, had learned his lessons from two of the foremost silver authorities of his or any other time- John Marshall Phillips of Yale and Kathryn Buhler of Boston. His collection was permanently loaned to the Wadsworth Atheneum even as he assembled it, and among those who helped were Marvin Schwartz and Dean A. and Martha G. Fales.
Hardcover. 8"x10.5", 142 pages, color frontispiece and black & white illustrations. Light wear, a little soil.
