Frank Sinatra: “All Aboard!” By John Aaron

SINATRA THE ENIGMA. Frank Sinatra was vast, complex and controversial. Since his death in 1998 at age 82, it seems like a new book comes out every year outlining his remarkable career and promising that the author has gotten to the root of what Sinatra was really like. No one gets it entirely right because Frank was a many-faceted person, and people became familiar only with those aspects of his personality he chose to show them. Over the years, I interacted with him as a musician, piano technician and fellow toy train enthusiast. I might just as well have been dealing with three different people. Add to this the legends and rumors that surrounded him—most of which he neither confirmed nor denied—and it’s no wonder he was a hard character to nail down. I eventually decided not to attempt to do what so many others failed to accomplish. Therefore, I will confine my narrative to our mutual hobby of collecting and operating toy trains. All aboard! SINATRA THE COLLECTOR. Frank collected and operated toy trains, a hobby that should not be confused with model railroading. Toy trains are the big, heavy, colorful,

noisy electric trains that were most popular from the 1920s to 1960s and were a fixture under most families’ Christmas trees. Almost every major department store had an operating layout on display during the holiday season. As a youngster growing up in Hoboken, N.J., Frank made the pilgrimage to Manhattan whenever possible to view the department store holiday layouts and the year-round showroom layouts at the Lionel and American Flyer headquarters. Most of us who collect toy trains got hooked on them as kids. Operating them on our home layouts now takes us back to our childhood times. The hobby has wide appeal to people in high stress professions. For example, of the nearly 30,000 active toy train enthusiasts in the United States, the largest single professional group represented is doctors, followed by corporate CEOs and CFOs, lawyers, business owners and clergymen. People in show business, although the smallest professional group, are naturally the most visible. Besides Mr. “S,” there is Neil Young, Rod Stewart, Mandy Patinkin and Joe Regalbuto (“Frank” on the Murphy Brown TV series). Now deceased, there was also Jackie Gleason, Tom Snyder, Ward Kimball, Dudley Moore, Arthur Godfrey, Tommy Dorsey and Gary Coleman. In my more than 50 years in the hobby, I have had the pleasure of visiting the home layouts of many of these famous collectors. Many celebrity train layouts can be viewed via the Internet.1

SINATRA’S TRAIN LAYOUT. Hoboken is one of New Jersey’s premier communities, but that was not the case in the Roaring Twenties when the youngster Frank Sinatra started to take an interest in toy trains. Hoboken was the low-rent district. In later life, Frank would quip, “I was born in Hoboken, but today, I couldn’t afford to live there.” Most folks in his neighborhood could not buy electric trains which have always been costly, but so the story goes, Frank’s mother pawned an old fox fur piece she had acquired and bought him his first set of trains. Another often-heard tale has Frank and various friends jumping aboard a streetcar every now and then and traveling the dozen miles or so to the Lionel Train factory where they would rummage through the trash bins after hours in search of discarded train parts. From the parts, they would cobble together whole trains. Typical of the Sinatra mystique, Frank never confirmed or denied either story. In his glory years, Sinatra would stroll the Lionel factory floors with Joshua Lionel Cowen himself as Frank picked out the latest Lionel offerings to add to his growing collection. Frank collected trains from almost all the major manufactures the world over. The value of his collection eventually exceeded a million dollars. Of course, once the word got out that Sinatra loved toy trains, many came to hitm as gifts, including an antique locomotive courtesy of the Vatican. Tommy Dorsey, one of the first bandleaders Frank worked for, had a huge train layout in the basement of his Bernardsville, New Jersey, mansion which Frank enjoyed visiting and operating. Frank was also quite taken with the 1949 Macy’s holiday display layout in New York. Sinatra’s personal toy train layout not only surpassed both the Dorsey and Macy’s layouts, but it also gave the Lionel Corporation’s New York showroom layout a good run for the money! The Sinatra collection and layout was not about owning the most toys. It was about fun. I never saw him more relaxed than when he was cleaning or oiling a locomotive or at the controls while four or five trains roared around his layout. During the holidays, Frank often had neighborhood kids in to not only look at but to actually operate his layout. The fact that some trains were occasionally damaged by the overly

enthusiastic kids did not upset him. Perhaps he remembered his childhood. Frank’s fabulous layout and collection were housed in a special building at his Rancho Mirage estate in Palm Springs, Calif., known simply as “The Compound.” The two-plus acre, walled compound sat on the seventeenth fairway of the Tamarisk Country Club and as I recall, consisted of about eight buildings, tennis and handball courts, and a swimming pool. Some of the buildings were small houses for guests. One was Frank’s art studio (another hobby). One was a replica of a Santa Fe railroad caboose that was built up from an actual railroad flat car. I think it was used as a barber shop and exercise room. The trains resided in a replica of an actual railroad station that was located in Ramsey, N.J. Lionel also made a reasonable model of this same station. Sinatra crammed his station from the floor to the rafters with wooden display cases and shelves brimming with trains of every type and manufacturer. The huge layout dominated the center of the room. Five trains could be operated simultaneously on the layout while others ran on separate loops or around the ceiling. A prominent area of the layout depicted Frank’s hometown of Hoboken. Another area of the station served as a library nook for Sinatra’s many train books and periodicals. MR.”S” AND ME. In the early ‘60s, I worked in Hollywood as a studio musician and songwriter for several major record labels. On occasion, I would have reason to interact with Sinatra, and we developed a nodding acquaintance. When I opted for the more quiet lifestyle of a piano technician, Frank’s long-time pianist Bill Miller would call upon me for piano work, which eventually led me to occasionally service Frank’s personal pianos. At some point, Sinatra saw my photo in one of the train magazines he regularly read and made the connection. He looked me up in the national directory of the Train Collectors Association, of which we were both members, and the next time he was performing in my area, he called me to ask if he could visit my layout. Since we were both night owls, we agreed that a late-night visit was best for security reasons. Frank arrived

around midnight along with his driver and a bodyguard, and we wound up playing with trains till around dawn. It is reasonable to ask why Sinatra would take an interest in me. Collecting toy trains has never been a hobby for the faint of wallet, and my income level was upper middle class at best. However, I could write, and so I did for almost all the major publications in the hobby. This led me to becoming a nationally

recognized train “expert” and much in demand as a speaker and clinician at train conventions and shows. This brought many people, who wanted to sell the old trains they found in dad’s attic after he passed away, to my door. Manufactures also mailed me their latest new trains in hopes I would mention them in one of my articles. Technically, these trains were loaned to me for review and would be picked up by a representative of the company sometime in the future. I’m still waiting. I also had many of my own trains from my youth. Trains were the only birthday or Christmas presents I ever asked for. They made a great foundation to build my collection on. During the 1970s and ‘80s, the general public had no interest in old toy trains, and piano-tuning clients often gifted me with boxes of trains they were anxious to rid their homes of. For Sinatra’s part, he had access to me, a knowledgeable train enthusiast with a first-class collection. More than that, however, we shared a lot of common interests. We both collected foreign trains from all over the world. Most collectors stick to American prototypes. Although most collectors prefer freight trains, both Frank and I favored passenger trains, and our collections were heavily weighted in their direction. Sinatra, of course, rode passenger trains frequently in the early years of his career. Many enthusiasts have a lot of trains in their collections for display purposes only that do not work. Frank and I both agreed that every item in a collection should be operable, and we spent a lot of extra time and money restoring our trains to top-running condition. Sinatra and I were also of the mind that no train was too rare or valuable to operate. We both owned the rare and highly coveted 1957 Lionel pink girl’s train sets. Although they were beyond valuable, we both frequently operated them on our layouts. Neither of us was much into the mint, never-opened, boxed train sets so many collectors strive to acquire. We both felt that toy trains were made to be toys and made to be played with. Over the years, we met up at train conventions, shows, swap meets, auctions, etc. We also frequented many hobby shops, after regular hours, of course, and visited numerous layouts of fellow train collectors. Toy trains transported Sinatra light years away from concerts, movies and his legendary Las Vegas Rat Pack. No glitz. No glamour. Just lots of fun! -------------------John Aaron is a semi-retired master piano tuner and technician. He blogs wonderful stories at http://johnaaronstories.blogspot.com.

Ted Carlton of Utah and Sherron Lawson of Roswell, Ga., correctly identified the Coronation Chair. Residing in Westminster Abbey in London, the Coronation Chair has been used for the coronations of all English monarchs since 1308 who were actually crowned. (Two were not1.) It is also called King Edward’s Chair because he ordered it created to hold the Stone of Scone, which he had taken from Scotland. King Edward I ruled from 1272 to 1307. The Stone of Scone is shrouded in myths which say it was the stone Jacob used as a pillow in Bethel the night of his vision of Jacob’s Ladder. It is also said to have been originally used by the Irish for crowning their kings. However, geological research matches this red sandstone block with a quarry in Scotland. Putting the myths aside, the Stone of Scone was used for the coronation of Scottish kings at least as far back as the 800s A.D. Edward I captured the Stone of Scone in 1296 while fighting against the Scots. Edward sent the Stone of Scone to Westminster Abbey. (A historical connection here: two years later, King Edward I and his army defeated the army of William “Braveheart” Wallace in 1298. He did not capture Wallace in this battle; a traitor turned him over to the English in 1305.)

A drawing showing the Stone of Scone in King Edward’s chair. (Photo: U.S. public domain.) A replica of the Stone of

Scone. (Photo: bubobubo2.)


The Stone remained at Westminster Abbey until 1950 when Scottish nationals “re-appropriated” it but only for a brief amount of time. In 1996, Prime Minister John Major sent it home to Scotland permanently—on the condition that the Stone of Scone returns to Westminster Abbey for future coronations. The Coronation Chair has two lions carved at its feet, and it has a slot for the Stone of Scone under the seat2. Its last use was in the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. ---------------1Edward V and Edward VIII were not crowned. Henry V was 12 when his father died in 1483, but he was never officially crowned. His uncle Richard III, who was also his Lord Protector, delayed the coronation until Parliament declared him king instead. Edward V was king for 86 days. Not long after his “removal from office,” he and a slightly older brother disappeared and were presumed murdered at the orders of Richard III. Edward VIII abdicated the throne in 1936 due to his future plans to marry Wallis Simpson, an American divorcee. As king, Edward VIII was also considered head of the Church of England which was against a divorcee marrying again before the spouse passed away. 2Westminster-abbey.org

$5,885 (39 bids) Earnest Mignon RC2 Crystal Set Loose Coupler Radio, 1914, Marconi Era. One of the first crystal sets ever manufactured by Ernest C. Mignon, the pre-World War I Mignon RC-2, serial number 35 from 1914! Ernest C. Mignon immigrated to the USA and arrived on August 4, 1907 on Ellis Island. Ernest Mignon was of German decent and sailed on the Caledonia from Glasgow, England to the United States. In 1914, he founded the Mignon Wireless Corporation located in Elmira, N.Y. The company became later Universal Radio Mfg. Co. Ernest Mignon was a pioneer in the field of wireless and had a great future. However, he was robbed of his opportunity to show his true potential. The same way the U.S. Government rounded up Japanese immigrants after the attack on Pearl Harbor to keep them locked up in detention camps in the desert of Nevada during World War II, the U.S. Government interned immigrants of German decent at Fort Oglethorpe, Ga. Among the detainees rounded up at the outset of World War I was Ernest Mignon. He was held against his will in the detention center until the end of WWI. It can only be imagined what else he would have contributed to the development and improvement of early wireless technology. This exceedingly rare and early radio, one of the first radios he ever produced, is in as-found condition. It was found in an attic in northern Pennsylvania. The case measures 12 inches

wide, 8 7/8 inches deep and 6 inches high. The knobs on top add another 1 1/4 inches. The weight is 9 lbs and 5 ounces. The case is made of heavy oak; the top panel is somewhat warped. On the panel are two brass labels with the following writing: MIGNON WIRELESS CORPORATION, MANUFACTURERS OF RADIO APPARATUS, RC-2 35, PATENT APPLIED FOR. The second brass label reads:

SUPERIOR MIGNON SYSTEM RADIO APPARATUS. The terminals are from left to right: Antenna & Ground; Telephones; Detector. This museum-quality piece is complete and in all original condition. (Photo: eBay seller technogallery.)

DBA: Marconi built the first commercially successful wireless system based on radio transmission around 1894. The first “radio station” for broadcasting began in 1909 in San Jose, Calif. The first continuous broadcast in the world began in 1916. In 1917, when the U.S. entered WWI, all civilian use of radio transmissions ceased. All radio stations came under government control. Little improvements other than military uses were made in that time period. This radio is a very early crystal radio (rather than vacuum tube operation). The amount of money paid for this early radio is based on the rarity of the item. While I could find similar type and age radios, this one is rare.

$2,818 (38 bids): Rockola Sweepstakes Horse Race Penny Coin Op Trade Stimulator. This is a circa 1934 Rock Ola Sweepstakes Horse Racing Penny Gumball Trade Stimulator.

$8,500 (27 bids): Large German Hand-blown 4-Panel Onionskin Blizzard Mica Marble Antique Toy Marble. Measures 1 5/8 inches, weight 3.5 oz., of German origin, circa 1890-1920. This antique glass toy marble is in untouched, as-found condition. Hand blown with ground pontil in the Onionskin Blizzard form. Having two panels of cherry red on white base and two panels of emerald green on a white base. Above these base colors floats blizzards of suspended mica chips. Overall condition is good, some light play-use surface scratches. Of note, there is a smooth, one-quarter inch, shallow divot next to one pontil that is very hard to see. (Photo: eBay seller oldwellantiques.)

DBA: Antique glass marbles are very collectible, especially the handmade marbles by German glassmakers. The pontil mark identifies the marble as being handmade. America stopped importing German marbles during WWI, and machine-made marbles became popular. Handmade marbles were dangerous to make from handling the glass material to grinding the pontil mark where the glass particles could be inhaled. Many glassmakers died from tuberculosis. Size matters with marbles with larger being more expensive. This marble is very large and has four panels of color. All of these are factors in the very high price paid for it. Handmade glass marbles have not been made in about a hundred years. This marble was sold for much more than similar marbles on eBay and other places. I did find a similar marbles selling for $3,500 and for $1,500. The seller did very well.-----------------------Deborah Abernethy is a certified appraiser with the International Association of Appraisers. She can be contacted at 404-262-2131 or [email protected].

Everyone recognizes the name of Mother Teresa, and all know of her lifelong service to the poorest of the poor in India and to many throughout the world. Born on Aug. 26, 1910 in Skopje, Macedonia, Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu was of Albanian descent. Her father Nikola died mysteriously when she was about eight. Her mother Drana instilled in Agnes the principle of charity from an early age. She always invited people to eat with them—family members and strangers. “My child, never eat a single mouthful unless you are sharing it with others,” Drana taught her daughter.1

“If you can’t feed a hundred people, then feed just one.”

Early in her life, Agnes decided to dedicate herself to serving the needy. At the age of 18, she joined the order of the Sisters of Loreto in Ireland and took her name to be Mother Teresa. She was soon sent to India to teach in a Catholic high school for girls from very poor families. In 1946, while traveling on a train, Mother Teresa reported hearing the voice of Jesus Christ saying, “I want Indian Nuns, Missionaries of Charity, who would be my fire of love amongst the poor, the sick, the dying and the little children.”2 She followed this direction after being released from her order and walked into the slums of Calcutta. Mother Teresa began by teaching the children of the poorest by drawing letters in the dirt. This grew into a school. She also created a hospice for the dying poor, no matter their religious affiliation, so they could die with dignity in the care and love of a concerned fellow human being. When reading this, don’t imagine new red brick school buildings and hospital facilities with clean sheets. Out of necessity, Mother Teresa often used dilapidated, rundown, and/or abandoned buildings when she began her work in Calcutta. She and those of her order also lived in abject poverty.

“We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty.”

From her humble beginning in the slums of Calcutta, Mother Teresa gathered followers and donors from throughout the world. She refused steady government help, but she had no problem seeking it—in her own way—when it was needed.

This instance of her receiving government assistance was reported in USA Today: “Former San Francisco Mayor Art Agnos recalls how stunned and surprised he was when Mother Teresa and two nuns showed up at his home, without an appointment, at about 9 p.m. on a Sunday evening in February 1989. Mother Teresa wanted to convert a particular vacant building into a homeless center. “‘I’ve come to talk to you about the work of God,’ Mother Teresa told him. Agnos promised to investigate the building first thing in the morning. She said, ‘The work of God cannot wait until tomorrow morning.’ “So they traipsed off into the wintry darkness to inspect the building right then and confirm that yes, it was city-owned and available. “‘She is the only person that I have ever been around where I have sensed I have been in a holy presence,’ Agnos said.”3 This diminutive woman clad in a blue-and-white sari changed the world with simple acts of service that grew into orphanages, refugee centers, clinics, soup kitchens, and maternity, hospice and HIV/AIDS homes scattered among more than 130 countries in the world. This required a great talent for organization and logistics, which are talents not often considered when Mother Teresa comes to mind. Through her selfless acts of charity, Mother Teresa became a legend without seeking glory. When told that she won the Nobel Prize in 1979, she responded that she was not worthy. Then she requested the money for the Nobel Prize banquet be donated to feed the poor Christmas dinner. When the Pope gave her the limousine he used during a trip to India, she raffled it off to help the needy.4

“Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God’s kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile.” On Sept. 5, 1997, Mother Teresa passed away after suffering from heart and lung problems for many years.

There's an old saying about St. Petersburg, Fla.; People who live there love it; businesses that located there stay; and visitors who go there to shop and play want to come back again and again. How true! St. Petersburg and Pinellas Coun-ty offer an unequaled environment for work and play. Wonderful weather and miles of sandy beaches make it a magnet for people worldwide.

St. Petersburg's two strongest selling points are sunshine and shopping. The former can be enjoyed virtually year-round; the latter comes in the form of malls, factory outlet stores, discount chains, specialty shops, membership warehouses, and —oh, yes— a cavalcade of wonderful antiques and collectibles stores. The advertisers on this page offer a taste of what we mean.

Getting to St. Petersburg isn't hard to do. The city's major thoroughfare is I-275, which runs north and south and connects to the Sunshine Skyway Bridge and Man-atee County (another mecca for shoppers on the antique trail). I-275 also connects with 1-4 going east to Orlando from Tampa and I-75 heading north. U.S. 19 is an important north-south link that runs the length of the county.

A visit to St. Petersburg will leave you wanting more, no matter how long you stay. And it's easy to fan out and explore. Tampa — a city with it's own identity, cultural pulse and antiques and collectibles shops—is right next door. And Orlando, with its many theme parks, is a short drive away. Don't you think it's time to visit, vacation and shop in St. Petersburg? It's truly the Jewel of Florida's Gulf Coast!

I live in Syracuse, N.Y., and have these old Civil War invitations to military balls and receptions. I even have a pre-19th century check dated 1799 from the bank of Alexandria. I want to know if you could let me know if they are worth anything or at least direct me to someone who could. JS: Your frame of invitations to military balls and band events in the late 1860s and early 1870s just after the Civil War are interesting ephemera with a couple of nice color lithograph vignettes, but they will probably not sell for more than $100-

$200 in the general antique market. Similar invitations are quite common in scrapbooks of this era. The most interest would probably be to a local collector in Syracuse where most of the events listed were held. The most interesting item in this frame amongst the 14 invitations is a facsimile of a 1799-dated bank check of George Washington’s. The check appears to be printed about the same time as these invitations and makes a nice conversation piece; as an original George Washington-signed check, it would be

quite valuable. Even in the 1870s, it was an interesting conversation piece. The check was made to William Thornton six months before Washington’s death. Thornton was best known as the designer of the U.S. Capital. Post-Civil War invitations to balls and musical events, $100-$200.

The Internet has a lot of different ideas about what this saber is. The blade says, “W.Walscheid Solingen.” I know they were in Prussia and made blades for the Civil War, not sure if Union or Confederate. JS: Your sword is no doubt Civil War Era and could have been used by either the North or the South. The pattern of sword is US model 1840 enlisted cavalry saber. This pattern was exported by several Solingen makers to American retailers such as Horstmann & Sons in Philadelphia prior to and during the Civil War. The first American contract 1840 cavalry sabers actually came from Schnitzler & Kirschbaum (S&K), also of Solingen, for trials of the new pattern in 1842. After those initial few hundred imports, Ames Manufacturing Company in Massachusetts made all the swords of this pattern for the U.S. Army. They were the only government contractor until the Civil War when many more swords were needed, and many firms imported German sabers. The German Solingen swords had the reputation for being the best in the world and were sold worldwide to many countries. Wilhelm Walscheid’s name shows up occasionally on cavalry sabers identified to Civil War soldiers, though I know of no one in particular who was selling them. The configuration of your scabbard with the two carrying rings spaced about a foot apart is typical of how American cavalrymen carried swords; often, Europeans would only use one sword ring, and scabbards would vary in the shape of the drag. Your sword appears in nice, “as found” condition with good patina in a well-preserved grip. Often, grips on swords are missing the leather-and-wire wrap which is wound over a cord-wrapped wood base. The rust and pitting on the scabbard, especially near the drag, is typical, and this scabbard has protected the blade for over 150 years. Dealers typically price well preserved, “uncleaned” specimens like this between $400 and $600.

An 1840 pattern enlisted cavalry Solingen sword, $400-$600.

I have a set of two straight razors with their embossed leather cases and I believe the leather honing strap. My grandmother told me that if I was ever in a bind that I should sell them. I’ve been holding onto them for many years, but that time has come. Like she says, it’s just stuff; you can’t take it with you. They are Wade & Butchery and do say, “Sheffield.” I’m hoping that you’ll be able to give me an idea about their worth. They were probably last honed around 35 years ago when they were framed in a shadow box in New York at Sam Flax. JS: Sam, Wade & Butcher were well-known Sheffield cutlers, circa 1840-1860. Their knives are very valuable, but razors,

even the best ones, generally have low values in the antique world as they are not rare and many remain. You can find similar pairs of razors with ivory handles in excellent condition priced by dealers at about $150-$250.

Civil War Era razors are relatively common and valued at $150-$250. ------------------

“Helga” from Hogan’s Heroes passed away on March 11th of this year from organ failure after having hepatitis. She was 76. Of the show’s regular cast members, only one has not passed away—“LeBeau,” Robert Clary.1 Helga was played by Cynthia Lynn (birth name: Zinta Valda Zimilis) who was born on April 2, 1937 in Riga, Latvia. She acted in the first season of the groundbreaking series in 1965-1966, playing Colonel Klink’s secretary. She was followed by Sigrid “Hilda” Valdis for the last five seasons of the show. Hogan’s Heroes was the first television series to treat World War II in a humorous manner, and surprisingly, it worked. Even though it was based on the outrageous premise of prisoners of war remaining in a German concentration camp to aid the war effort, the American audience watched it and laughed each week as the prisoners outsmarted Col. Klink and Sgt. Schultz. As silly as the premise of the show seemed, Werner “Col. Klink” Klemperer received five Emmy nominations for his role, and he won not once, but twice, for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series. (His last job in 1993 before passing away in 2000 was on The Simpsons as Bart’s guardian angel, in the voice of Col. Klink, of course.2) Bob Crane received two nominations but was never awarded an Emmy. As most know, Bob Crane was murdered. On June 29, 1978, his body was found bludgeoned to death with an electrical cord wrapped around the neck. An arrest was finally made in 1992, but the suspect was found not guilty. At the time of his death, Crane was married to one of his co-stars from the show, Sigrid “Hilda” Valdis (birth name: Patricia Annette Olson). They were married on the set of Hogan’s Heroes in 1970. The other members of Hogan’s Heroes who have passed away are: Richard Dawson on June 2, 2012 at the age of 79; Werner Klemperer on Dec. 6, 2000 at the age of 80; John “Sgt. Schultz” Banner (“I see nothing!”) at the age of 63 on Jan. 28, 1973; Larry “Sgt. Carter” Hovis, 67, on Sept. 9, 2003; and Ivan “Sgt. Kinchloe” Dixon, 67, on March 16, 2008. In addition to Hogan’s Heroes, Cynthia Lynn also acted in many TV series: Mission Impossible, The Odd Couple, Love, American Style, Harry O, The Six Million Dollar Man, Gidget Grows Up, Dr. Kildare, Surfside 6, and others. Her autobiography, Escape To Freedom, describes her flight at the

age of three with her mother and grandmother from the approaching Russian army as it invaded Latvia during World War II. On her first day on the set of Hogan’s Heroes, Cynthia became physically sick at the sight of the German uniforms.3

Collectibles abound for fans of Hogan’s Heroes. The most sought-after collectibles are the HH lunchbox and thermos. Although they sell for a variety of prices depending on condition, those that are near-mint can go for close to $300. One pristine 1966 HH thermos sold for $317 on eBay recently. Other Hogan’s Heroes collectibles include comic books, record albums (it seems most of the cast could sing), a game, trading cards, autographed photos, notepads, videos and TV Guide covers featuring the cast. The cast of Hogan’s Heroes were very popular, and in 1965, they even showed up in costume on a Bing Crosby Christmas special, including Col. Klink (who sings briefly) and Sgt. Schultz. For a kick, watch it on YouTube. --------------------- 1 Robert Clary is 88 years old, and he was the only cast member who actually served time in Nazi concentration camps. At the age of 16, he was sent to one camp and then to Buchenwald; he survived a total of three years before being liberated. Twelve members of his family were sent to Auschwitz and did not return. 2Imdb.com 3 Corporateeventchannel.com

Poor Jim's Almanac of Auctions


How To Get Where You Are Going By Pam Avery Printed

The traffic has really been picking up out here at Jones Crossroads. That’s a good sign. The more folks who are out and about, the better it is for business here and in town. With this increase in traffic, we have more visitors in the store but also more lost souls looking for Warm Springs, Ga. Mr. Ralph and I can always tell when someone is misplaced. Some confused travelers pull up to the front of the store, jump out of their car without turning off the engine, and hurry inside. Others sit in front of the store looking at a MapQuest printout, arguing with the GPS, looking at the road signs, and looking at the store. Finally the misplaced traveler gives up, walks into the store, looking confused and frustrated and asks, “Where am I?” Having spent hours giving directions and listening to Mr. Ralph give directions to places everywhere between Lickskillet and Panama City, I decided that compiling some information for lost travelers might be helpful. So here is our guide for “How to Get Where You Are Going:”

1. If you are a woman traveling with your significant other of the opposite sex and your partner is driving, some kind of ploy must be used to get him to stop. Try this: “Honey … quick … stop at that store …. I think I am going to be sick.” As soon as he stops, and he will, make your move, go in that store, and get directions. 2. If you are traveling with a group of ladies, decide who is going to be the line leader before you go into a store. Designate who will ask questions, who needs to write down the information, and who needs to keep quiet. 3. If you are traveling with a group of men, you might not ever come back from your journey. We once had a carload of GI’s from Fort Benning come through the intersection three times in one day. Each time, they were lost and looking for someplace different.

4. If you ask someone for directions and they begin by scratching their head and saying, “Let me think,” — hear what they have to say, tell them “Thank you,” and go someplace else for a second opinion. 5. If you are a man traveling alone, I will pray that you have a guardian angel. 6. If you are a woman traveling alone, remember why you stopped at a store in the first place. Although we love it when you load up the trunk of your car with treasures, your original intent was to get directions. 7. When you ask for directions, listen very carefully until the person finishes giving them. Do not interrupt. Do not argue. If you anger the person giving you directions, there is no telling where you might end up. Remember: if you knew how to get where you were going, you would not be asking for directions in the first place. 8. Buy a map—a real one. So hit the road. Discover America’s treasures. And if you get lost, ask for directions. --------------------- Pam Avery was graduated from the University of Georgia in 1972 with a major in journalism. She is a freelance writer and has been a publisher of two children’s books, a ghost writer and a reporter, photographer, and columnist for five weekly community newspapers. She received her master’s in journalism from the University of Memphis and currently teaches at Columbus State University in Columbus, Ga. She and her partner Mr. Ralph can be found at Jones Crossroads Antiques and Vintage Store, 6926 Whitesville Road, West Point, Ga.

French Flea Market Finds by Corey Amaro

1700s Broken French Platter

Broken long ago, story unknown. Repair evident. Keepsake. Found at the brocante (flea market) at 10:35 a.m., late in the hunt. 15 Euros. French Husband pulled the broken, wired platter out of a pile. “Hey, Corey, don’t you love this kind of broken?” he asked. He is good. Real good. Who knew he would find my kind of diamond? From Andrew Baseman’s blog, Past Imperfect (http://andrewbaseman.com/blog): “Antiques with inventive repairs (also known as ‘make-do’ repairs) are unique examples of necessity and thrift, made during a time before Krazy Glue was invented. Unlike today where we discard anything chipped or cracked, broken household items were repaired at home or taken to a metalsmith to be brought back to life, often with

whimsical results. Once regarded merely as damaged goods by antiques dealers and collectors alike, antiques with inventive repairs are justly receiving the respect they deserve.” ---------------- Corey Amaro is an American living in the south of France.

American Bottle Auctions’ Auction #60 July 11-20 at www.americanbottle.com

Nearly 200 lots – many of them rare and highly collectible bottles, to include sodas, bitters, back bars, medicines, whiskey fifths and flasks, plus advertising items and other spirits and poisons – will all come up for bid in American Bottle Auctions’ next big online and catalog sale (Auction #60). The sale will begin Friday, July 11, and end Sunday, July 20, at www.americanbottle.com. “We have many highlights and these include some rare colored historical flasks, in particular a series of Washington/Taylor quarts exhibiting incredible colors and other beautiful examples,” said Jeff Wichmann of American Bottle Auctions. “We also have the Weimer collection of over 35 rare and desirable bitters bottles, plus a great selection of equally scarce advertising pieces.” Wichmann added, “We have over 35 western whiskey fifths and another 20 western whiskey flasks. These, too, are quite hard to find and will be very appealing to collectors. The cathedral pickles in this auction are probably the finest collection we’ve had in years, with some terrific true colored pickles and pepper sauces. We also have some items never before seen at auction.” The standard American Bottle Auction rules will apply to this Auction #60 (for details, logon to www.americanbottle.com). To order a catalog (available in early July) call (800) 806-7722 or send an e-mail request to [email protected].

(“Billy”) Eubanks – a prominent banker and accomplished woodworking craftsman – and his surviving wife Maedelle, will be sold at an on-site auction planned for Saturday, July 26, at 1219 Marie Ann Boulevard in Panama City.

The sale will get underway at 8 a.m. (CST), with a preview from 7-8 a.m. Previews will also be held the day or two prior to sale by appointment (to schedule, call The Specialists of the South at 850-785-2577).

Gorgeous Mahogany Queen Anne Highboy Hammers for $32,500 at

Ahlers & Ogletree

A mahogany carved and figured Queen Anne highboy (high chest of drawers raised on cabriole legs), likely originating from Massachusetts and dating between 1730 and 1750, sold for $32,500 at a huge, high-end, multi-estate auction held June 6-8 by Ahlers & Ogletree, in the firm’s gallery located at 715 Miami Circle (Suite 210) in Atlanta, Ga. Ahlers & Ogletree has a Summer Estates Auction slated for Aug. 9-10, also in the Atlanta gallery. Over 1,000 lots in a wide range of antique and high-end categories will be sold. The auction will be open for previewing Aug. 6-8, from 10-6 p.m., and on sale days from 10 a.m. until the start of sale at 11 a.m. For more info, visit www.AandOauctions.

June bloomed the first weekend at the ICA Metrolina show in Charlotte, N.C., a little on the quiet side. But just like a motor that cracks and pops and finally bursts into a roar, the show eventually ended on a high note. Many dealers were satisfied, and some were ecstatic, as unsold items were being repacked in preparation for the next show on the circuit. July at ICA Metrolina is just as promising. It is being billed as a mini-extravaganza. Falling as it does on July 3-6, a patriotic theme is planned. Extra advertising should result in increased customers/buyers. To book a space, speak with jolly Jennifer at 704-714-7909. For more information about the ICA Metrolina show, log on to www.ICAShows.com.


Annual Elegant & Depression Glass Show & Sale July 19th and 20th in Nashville

The 15th Annual Elegant and Depression Glass Show and Sale will be held July 19-20 in Nashville, Tenn., again providing glassware collectors and enthusiasts the opportunity to buy American-made glassware and pottery from nationally-known dealers. As in the past, the show will offer seminars on glass topics and a display of one of the Fostoria Glass Company’s most popular patterns. On Sunday, members of the Fostoria Glass Society of Tennessee (FGST) will provide a glass identification service.

The event will be held in the Exhibitor Building at the Tennessee State Fairgrounds. Parking is free if a show card or ad is presented at the entrance gate. Admission is $6 per person, good for both days. Show hours are 10-5 on Saturday and 11-3 on Sunday. The featured display will be Fostoria’s Coin Pattern, made from 1958-1982. A coin pattern was originally produced by Central Glass Works in 1892, but its production was stopped because the coins were considered to be counterfeits. The coins on the Fostoria pieces are not depictions of actual coins, so production continued for many years. New to the show this year will be glass repair by Angela Boudreaux. She will be available throughout the show to smooth chipped glass and make minor repairs. The show is hosted by the Fostoria Glass Society of Tennessee, a chapter of the Fostoria Glass Society of America. Proceeds support the Fostoria Glass Museum in Moundsville, W.Va., and other venues devoted to the history and preservation of American-made glassware. Additional information about the show is available at www.fostoria-tennessee.com and www.facebook.com/fostoriaglass.tn.
