THE NAYLOR COLLECTION THE COMPLETE HISTORY OF THE NAYLOR COLLECTION THE COMPLETE

CAMERAS, , PHOTOGRAPHIC , ASSOCIATED EPHEMERA, AND AN EXTENSIVE ESPIONAGE COLLECTION

For over 50 years I have traveled the world for both business and pleasure. In the course of those travels I have assembled a one-of-its-kind collection of more than 30,000 photographic items. While collecting photographica has been immensely satisfying, my greatest satisfaction has been sharing these discoveries in my private museum.

I have always looked for artifacts that illuminate human endeavor, that not only demonstrate the technological progress of -making but also inspire insight into the history of events and ideas. I have always looked for items of high aesthetic quality that tell stories and entertain as they enlighten.

That is why my collection is so diverse, including the pre-history of photography, the history of photography, and the history of espionage. It is also why its cultural vision encompasses both the East and the West. During the Cold War, for example, I acquired spy paraphernalia while in the Soviet Union.

One of the ways I’ve put these principles to work is by creating a museum for my collection. There, in a climate-controlled environment designed for security and optimal preservation, I have played host to thousands of both young and adult visitors. I’m proud to say that their responses, including those from many curators, indicate that my collection has provided ample food for thought and entertainment.

I would like to share my discoveries with a broader public, and so, as the culmination of a life-long passion for photography, I am now offering my collection for purchase.

I invite you to peruse the enclosed materials, which give an oversight of the collection as well as details about selected items. If you would like to learn more, visit the collection, or make an inquiry, please contact my representative by telephone, fax, or e-mail.

I would be pleased to entertain your expression of interest.

Sincerely,

Thurman F. Naylor

Thurman F. (Jack) Naylor with “The Grand Triple (Triu- nial) ,” England, 1875. A product of the Victorian era, the triple- magic lantern was used to create dissolves be- tween hand-crafted images. The lantern generated intense by directing a hydrogen-oxygen jet of flame onto a cylin- der of lime, creating “lime-light.”

PATENTED IN 1859 BY THE VENETIAN AND INVENTOR CARLO PONTI, the Megaletoscopio produced a remarkable illusion of photography 79 years before the process was invented. By peering through a lens at the front of the Megaletoscopio the viewer sees the trans- formation of a , 11-by-14-inch wet-plate into its richly-colored equiva- lent. The Megaletoscopio, which sits atop a marble base, is made of ebonized teak and is covered with hundreds of inlaid ivory designs, the four largest of which depict Industry, Art, Agriculture, and Science. The storage cabinet of this instrument (1862), which is also made of matching teak and inlaid ivory, contains 40 Carlo Ponti . This Megaletoscopio is the only such model produced.

7 THE EARLIEST PHOTOGRAPHY THIS UNUSUALLY LARGE, 10-BY-12-INCH MAMMOTH-PLATE WAS MADE in 1846 by John Adams Whipple of Boston. It is a family portrait of Stephen Tilton, a prosperous Boston merchant, his wife Priscilla, and their 12 children. The image is displayed in its original cove-molded rosewood frame with gold fillet, matting, and glass.

Not only is it one of a very few extant daguerreotypes of its size, it is also an extraordinary example of the daguerreotypist’s art: unusual clarity in every detail, dignity in the pose of every family member, and well-modulated light on each face. Whipple made the image in his studio, where he used mirrors and scrims to direct and diffuse the light from a single skylight.

THE PLUMBE DAGUERREOTYPE , fabricated for John Plumbe, Jr., was one of the first made in America. This Plumbe camera, designed for quarter-plate daguerreo- types, was made in 1841 and includes the original cloth and label. A note found inside the camera reads: “For Daguerreotypy [sic], 1841.”

8 ESPIONAGE CAMERAS, PHOTOGRAPHS, EQUIPMENT, WEAPONRY, AND EPHEMERA CONSTITUTE THE NAYLOR ESPIONAGE COLLECTION one of The Naylor Collection’s most distinguished and extensive sub-collections.

The Naylor Collection encompasses the history of spying from the American Civil War through the Cold War with Russia. It includes items used by the OSS, CIA, FBI, British War Ministry, East German Stasi, and Soviet KGB. Its holdings demonstrate both the ingenuity and eccentricity of intelligence gathering: for example, the camera carried by German pigeons during the First World War. The Cold War era is amply represented by, among other items, cameras that were mounted in U-2 spy planes, a robotic camera used to scour the oceans’ depths, and a variety of miniature and hidden cameras that were employed by both male and female agents.

Curtis traveled the American West photographing Native Americans and their vanishing cultures. In the course of 30 years he published his 20-volume set of photography and anthropological narrative entitled The North American Indian. Curtis’ elegiac depiction of Native Americans displays both a romantic sensibility and a masterful eye for composition. The Curtis glass plates in The Collection are rare; most of his

plates were destroyed. 68

THE NAYLOR LIBRARY OF books and journals, many of them quite rare, encompasses all aspects of photography. The journals include Anthony (1870-1903), Philadelphia Photog- rapher (1865-1897), British Journal (1880-1949), Photo News (1863- 1899), and Wilson’s Photographic (1887-1905). Among The Col- lection’s stunningly illustrated books are ten volumes with 300 hand-colored photographs made in Japan and published in 1897 by a Bostonian. Another exam- ple is the 1969 four-volume, limited-edition set, Chinese Art in Three Dimensions, which includes 1300 pages and View Master reels of 1,258 three-dimensional photographs of art spanning 13 THE COLLECTION INCLUDES AN EXTENSIVE ARRAY OF PRE-PHOTOGRAPHIC centuries. devices with remarkable optical qualities. Its “magic mirrors” are bronze castings with reflective surfaces that in bright light cast reverse images of designs from the backs of the mirrors. The oldest of the mirrors is of Greek design and dates from as early as 300 B.C. 85 The largest is 20 inches in diameter and was made in China. Other pre-photographic items include South Asian shadow puppets, peep-eggs, , and viewers.

DAGUERREOTYPES BY THE BEST PHOTOGRAPHERS

THE COLLECTION’S DAGUERREOTYPES, MADE BETWEEN 1839 and 1850, represent the finest of their kind. They were taken by the masters of the new art, including the studios of Southworth and Hawes, Whipple, Plumbe, Gurney, Root, Brady, and Whitehurst.

STANHOPE MICROPHOTOGRAPHS WERE CONCEIVED BY LORD CHARLES STANHOPE (1753-1816). They were commercialized in the nineteenth century by René Prudent Dragon. Dragon and others encased the tiny images behind a lens viewed looking at bright light and embedded them in necklaces, pen knives, mirrors, miniature binoculars, letter openers, and hundreds of other articles. They were also used for espionage communiqués and were the predecessors of 103 modern microphotography. This is the largest of Stanhope collections.

Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes stereo view- er; Boston, 1859

THE NAYLOR COLLECTION, AMONG ITS MANY OTHER EXAMPLES OF three-dimensional photography, has one of the earliest hand-held stereoscopic viewers, which were invented by Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes (1809-1894), physician, poet, essayist, and father of the famous Supreme Court jurist. The Collection’s other articles of three-dimensional technology include many table viewers, viewers designed and built in London and Paris, matched pairs of floor-model viewers, and folding viewers. Among its modern viewers is an automated one 5 feet high fabricated by Arthur Marsh. There are hundreds of three-dimensional views in The Collection for these viewers. 115

THE EDGERTON HOLDINGS CONSTITUTE AN EXTENSIVE collection of their own. In the course of a decades-long friendship with “Doc” Edgerton, MIT professor and inventor of electronic photography, Jack Naylor assembled equipment and images representing the inventor/photographer’s long and varied career. These include examples of the scientist’s renowned “stop-motion” photography, underwater cameras from his long association with Jacques Cousteau, photographs of the first megaton atomic bomb test, and classified aerial images made in preparation for the D-Day invasion of France.

THIS 1727 ENGRAVING WAS made by Joseph Church from a mezzotint portrait of Reverend Cotton Mather painted by Boston’s Peter Pelham. Reverend Mather (1663-1728), a scholar of history, science, biography and theology, wrote some 380 works and succeeded his father, Reverend Increase Mather, as pastor of Boston’s Old North Church.
