For example, the largest consignment to this auction, the Markovits inventory, has not been available since his last stamp show at Washington 2006. In addition, we offer here many of his “exhibit starter” lots – lots containing groups of very impressive covers he acquired with his vast experience and keen eye that he intended to use as the backbones of exhibits that never Andrew Kupersmit materialized. Licensed Auctioneer The next largest consignment to this auction, the inventory of the late old-school show dealer John Nunes, has never been offered on ebay or on a website, despite being perfectly suited for this venue. We can also point to a handful of new discoveries. Lot 2104 is a unique pair of essays for the US Alaska issue of 1959. The designer framed and gave these two essays to his brother who recently died and were purchased with our guidance in a small estate sale in New England last year. Also, lots 2285 to 2288 are also new discoveries in Canal Zone Philately made by our staff combing through a massive accumulation (lot 2290). The most valuable of this modest group is lot 2287, the block of seven containing three Scott No. 20d (pos. 76, 86 and 96). This block, and the other new discoveries, has not been seen for about a century.

  • Oregon's Civil
    STACEY L. SMITH Oregon’s Civil War The Troubled Legacy of Emancipation in the Pacific Northwest WHERE DOES OREGON fit into the history of the U.S. Civil War? This is the question I struggled to answer as project historian for the Oregon Historical Society’s new exhibit — 2 Years, Month: Lincoln’s Legacy. The exhibit, which opened on April 2, 2014, brings together rare documents and artifacts from the Mark Family Collection, the Shapell Manuscript Founda- tion, and the collections of the Oregon Historical Society (OHS). Starting with Lincoln’s enactment of the final Emancipation Proclamation on January , 863, and ending with the U.S. House of Representatives’ approval of the Thirteenth Amendment abolishing slavery on January 3, 86, the exhibit recreates twenty-five critical months in the lives of Abraham Lincoln and the American nation. From the moment we began crafting the exhibit in the fall of 203, OHS Museum Director Brian J. Carter and I decided to highlight two intertwined themes: Lincoln’s controversial decision to emancipate southern slaves, and the efforts of African Americans (free and enslaved) to achieve freedom, equality, and justice. As we constructed an exhibit focused on the national crisis over slavery and African Americans’ freedom struggle, we also strove to stay true to OHS’s mission to preserve and interpret Oregon’s his- tory. Our challenge was to make Lincoln’s presidency, the abolition of slavery, and African Americans’ quest for citizenship rights relevant to Oregon and, in turn, to explore Oregon’s role in these cataclysmic national processes. This was at first a perplexing task.
