CONTENTS LOT: Victorian Revival and Mid-Century Modern Furniture, Val McCann Landscape, and Specialty Ephemera - You may take what you want and leave what you do not want. LOOK AT ALL THE PHOTOS TO SEE WHAT IS IN THIS HUGE LOT! This comprehensive estate collection features a range of 19th-century antiques and mid-century design. Key furniture items include a Victorian revival spool-turned bed frame in dark-stained hardwood and a solid oak washstand with original side-mounted towel bars. A notable modernist piece is the woven leather-strap lounge chair frame, which bears an incised mark ”3” on the side rail; the silhouette is highly consistent with prominent mid-century designs. Fine art highlights include an original oil-on-board landscape signed by listed Irish artist Val McCann and a large-format family studio portrait signed by Lecher, housed in a substantial multi-stepped frame. The collection is rounded out by a library of over 150 ”WoodenBoat” magazines dating from the late 1980s to the mid-2000s, and a unique handcrafted nativity stable composed of natural moss and bark. The estimate reflects the desirability of the signed artwork and the project potential of the modernist chair, offset by the poor condition of the horological and leather components. Valuation basis: auction results for Val McCann landscapes at 150-400 USD, similar Victorian bed frames at 200-500 USD, and bulk magazine archives at 1-2 USD per issue.
