Michael Reynolds (British, 20th Century), Journey II, signed lower left "Michael R Reynolds", oil on board, 52 x 45cm (20 x 18in). William Packer writes of the artist Michael Reynolds in his obituary in The Guardian that he "was one of the most naturally gifted painters of his generation, with a full, confident command of whichever medium he chose to work in." Reynolds` artistic commitment was to the representation of the real and visible world, directly observed. Described again by Packer as "a brilliant draughtsman, he was no less distinguished in his work with the figure, building up over the years a deserved reputation as a master of the contemporary portrait." William Packer believed that "In a more rational and generous age, Reynolds would doubtless have become a prominent member of the Royal Academy, and indeed he regularly showed in the annual Summer Exhibition." Brought up in Brighton, Reynolds studied at Varndean Grammar School and at the Brighton College of Art (1951-56). After some intermittent teaching in art schools, and various jobs and commissions, in 1962 he won the engraving scholarship to the British School at Rome, where he stayed for two years. For a short time around 1970 he ran a wine shop in Norfolk. In 1989 Brian Sewell and Reynolds set up The Discerning Eye, a popular annual open-submission exhibition. Some eight years ago, Reynolds lost patience with the British art world altogether, taking himself into exile, between Italy and Holland. Besides the Royal Academy, Reynolds was a regular exhibitor with the other exhibiting societies, in particular the Royal Society of British Artists, and he was, for more than 30 years, a leading member of the Royal Society of Portrait Painters. Michael Reynolds is represented in many important collections and galleries, both private and public, notably the National Portrait Gallery and the Royal Collection.

French and Indian War Map Horn--Forbes Trail to Fort Pitt14" length, triple raised ring with smooth spout, engraved with forts and Royal Coat of Arms. This well-travelled map horn shows every fort from New York to Fort Pitt at the Three Rivers. Wood base and iron carrying staple.While the owner is unknown, the horn has a historic connection to the Forbes Trail that solidified British dominance in the Ohio Territory following the ejection of the French. This extraordinary engraved map horn depicts the sequential forts and way points on the trail from Colonial New York to remote Fort Pitt (Pittsburgh) at the strategic Forks of the Ohio. The track departing from the frontier post of Carlisle is the path of the famed "Forbes Road" built by an army of 5,000 British regulars and Colonial militia under the direction of General John Forbes (1707-1759).Following the death of General Braddock during the ill-fated expedition against Ft. Duquesne in 1755, Forbes took command of British forces and commenced building a more direct road through 200 miles of trackless wilderness to attack the French at the strategic Forks. Hewn by hand from the primeval forest, the Forbes Trail was 20 foot wide and traversed the Allegheny Mountains with fortified supply posts (Raystown and Ligonier) at supporting intervals. The rough road was sufficient to support wagons and artillery and was completed in November 1758.The British advance column was attacked and bloodily repulsed on September 15, 1758 causing Forbes to immediately halt operations against Fort Dusquesne. Later in the fall the French at Fort Frontenac were forced to surrender leaving Fort Dusquesne with a much reduced garrison as their fickled Indian allies melted away. The sudden appearance of a large force of Redcoats emerging from the forest gloom so intimidated the few remaining French regulars that Fort Duquesne was burned to the ground and quickly abandoned. Forbes took control of the illusive prize on November 25, 1758 and ordered the post rebuilt naming it Fort Pitt in honor of his mentor William Pitt the Elder, British Secretary of State. Gravely ill through most of the grueling march, Forbes soon returned to Philadelphia where he died on March 11, 1759.Tracing Forbes` route the principal points are as follows: Fort Edward, Fort Stanwix, Crown Point, Fort Henry, Fort Carillon, R. Blockhouse, Mcniel, H.A. Moon, Albany, Philadelphia, Lancaster, Shapsburg, Carlisle, York, Loundon, and Bedford. The horn was likely carved and carried shortly after the construction of the new fort by a participant of the Forbes expedition as the names and locations generally correspond to the names known in 1758 culminating, of course, with Ft Pitt.Today parts of the Pennsylvania Turnpike and US Route 30 parallel the old Forbes Trail with key road markers westbound in Bedford and Westmorland County. As well as commemorating the Forbes Road and the ultimate capture of Ft. Duquesne, it is appealing to think of this historic horn in practical terms as a sort of portable road map anticipating the thrust of future frontier travel. Of course, the major significance of the Forbes Road in the decades following the French & Indian War was as a major land route into the heart of the prime Ohio country connecting Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. Condition: Very good. Nice even patina overall.Starting Price: $5500

Capt. George Randolph Dyer, AQM--Lincoln-Signed Commission and Pilot Knob ArchiveComprising an early eagle mast head commission partially printed on vellum, 12.25 x 15.75 in., matted, framed and glazed, 14.25 x 17.25 in., dated 21 February 1862, appointing George R. Dyer as Assistant Quartermaster of Volunteers with the rank of Captain. Signed by Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) as President and Edwin M. Stanton (1814-1869) as Secretary of War (1862-1868), with a later conveyance letter from the Adjutant General’s Office; plus the earlier formal appointment letter to George R. Dyer signed by Secretary of War Simon Cameron (March 1861-January 1862).The archive portion consists of 31 file folders, 24 of which contain primarily wartime personal correspondence coinciding with Captain Dyer’s assignment as Assistant US Quartermaster at the Pilot Knob, Missouri post. The letters span January 1862 to July 1865, but are scant on details regarding the quartermaster operation at Pilot Knob (in fact Geo. Dallas Dyers’ letters are more illuminating). Additionally, there are several pieces of interesting ephemera including Captain Dyer’s original 1885 GAR membership certificate from the Baxter Springs, Kansas Post No.123, an 1864 dated military railroad pass, original telegrams, and two manuscript documents written and signed by noted abolitionist and educator, General Clinton B. Fisk (1828-1890), a personal friend of George R. Dyer. Rounding out the lot are eleven civilian portraits (five are duplicates) of George Dyer taken between the late 1870s (a cdv) and 1892 (mostly cabinet cards) including one view of the regal old gentlemen wearing his MOLLUS medal. A file of 19th century manuscript Dyer biography and George’s printed 1895 MOLLUS “In Memoriam” pamphlet complete the lot.George R. Dyer’s Pilot Knob letters contain no battle content and very little concerning the day-to-day operations of the quartermaster department at the post. There are large gaps in the letters and most consist of newsy correspondence between various friends and family members living back in Chicago, Elgin and Plainfield, Illinois. Even at the Pilot Knob post the presence of family is evident—the captain’s son, George Dallas Dyer, worked as a clerk and died there in 1863 while Mrs. Dyer seems to have visited her husband with some regularity during the war.As the tempo of operations moved further south after 1862, Pilot Knob became something of a Missouri backwater albeit for sporadic guerrilla warfare that flared in a region dotted with Rebel sympathizers. The letters hint at legitimate business dealings as the buying and selling of “contraband horses and mules” became a reoccurring theme. The quartermaster seems to have also speculated locally in food supplies and animal fodder, systematically “hauling it in teams” from a radius around the post. Captain Dyer, who frequently complained of ill-heath, was able to take leave on occasion and just happened to be absent “in the North on sick leave” in September 1864, the one time Pilot Knob came under attack during Sterling Price’s ill-fated Missouri Invasion. After 1863 Captain Dyer hinted once or twice at pursuing loftier goals — a staff position with General Fisk — but remained at his post until his resignation from the army on May 15, 1865.A few excerpts from the letter collection: September 10, 1861 from Patience Huntington, Dyer’s sister: Not all in Illinois were stirred by the prospect of war and buoyed by patriotism. George sister was terse in her feelings: “I am about to employ all my powers of argument and persuasion to prevent you joining the army. Under other circumstances it might be your duty. Were your wife in vigorous health and your children (not so young), and your own health firm I would say no word to prevent it…but our patriotism must not make us forgetful of the virtues we owe to those for whom none can be a substitute…”Having reconciled his conscience with family responsibilities, George Dyer enlisted on October 31, 1861. The centerpiece of that decision is the Lincoln signed commission and accompanying War Department paperwork rarely found together after 150 years. January 8, 1862 to his wife Elizabeth (Howell Kimball) a long letter: Already Captain Dyer confesses his loneliness writing that the pain of being separated from his children is “harder than I thought it would be.” He hopes to return home “some time next month” if he can get a leave of absence. George briefly describes his duties, “I have a vast amount to attend to” and tells Elizabeth that “George (their eldest son George Dallas) arrived the 2nd day of this month and has done very well since he came…” He offers some insight into business matters, “We sold 52 horses & mules that had been taken from the enemy, I had to sell them. They brought 1300. They were very poor and small (and) sold rather low. Some were good but I did not buy for I thought I would rather send all the money home I could for you.” The letter includes a lengthy list of goods that Elizabeth should bring to Pilot Knob — “towels, butter, tea, a lamp or two” — as “some items can’t be had in this country.” He will express his pay, “Only 156 dollars instead of the 200 as I expected but I hope to have George have 60 per month which will help pay for being scattered all over the world.”The family might have been experiencing some financial difficulties as Capt. Dyer then rationalizes the quartermaster job lamenting, “If I can stand it for one year it will help my family some and that is all I am at work for.” He gives some instructions relating to the livestock management at the Plainfield farm and concludes by asking Elizabeth to send “my cane for it would help me to get through the mud which is very deep.”September 15, 1862 to sister Patience: Young George Dallas Dyer has left his Pilot Knob clerkship and joined the army. A proud but fearful Captain Dyer writes, “My poor boy only 17 years old gone to defend his country. Sister he is a fine boy manly as most men of 25 years (see George’s military cdv) & capable of doing any kind of business… He has gone & I hope he will do his duty. He is the youngest man in his company & is the captain. They all like him & I hope he will return the confidence of his company…”November 2, 1862 from Lt. W.F. Crain, 5th Illinois Cavalry: A mundane request asking Captain Dyer for his help in locating and recovering “a dozen lost or stolen horses” from the regiment. The animals were left at Pilot Knob and were due to be returned by cavalrymen convalescing in the hospital.A newspaper article dated January 8, 1863 reported on an abundance of new from Pilot Knob giving scope to the quartermaster operation there as well as featuring the approbations of Captain Dyer’s peers who had presented him with a “superb gold watch” on New Years Eve. The correspondent noted, “An air of unusual bustle and activity pervades this usually quiet town, caused by the arrival of 300 wagons from General Davidson’s Division, Army of Southeast Missouri. They are now loading with commissary stores for his army…” destined for Little Rock. The article quoted the lengthy testimonial “engraved on the case” and showered platitudes, “Our Government has been blessed and cursed with many faithful and unfaithful disburs

Civil War 15th Army Corps Forty Rounds Headquarters GuidonWorsted wool, 49 x 60 in. overall, 36 in. forked end. Red field stenciled with "Forty Rounds" and a U.S. cartridge box. Blue border machine stitched to red field, with reinforced hand-stitching along area near forked end. Gold cotton fringe hand-stitched to blue border. Canvas hoist machine-stitched to field, with inked in block letters 2d Brigd 15th.General Orders 10, Fifteenth Army Corps, of February 14, 1865, established a color coded system for the Corps` divisional and brigade flags. This was modified on April 9, 1865 with General Orders No. 21 which specified the corps and four division flags to be, "silk or bunting, five feet six inches fly, five feet hoist." The brigade flags were specified to be, "swallowtailed, five feet from the peak to end of the swallowtail, and three feet to the fork, four feet five inches on pike. The field of the flag shall be the division color and besides fringe it will have a border of one of the Corps colors, other than the particular Division color." This swallowtail guidon generally conforms to the specifications of General Orders No. 21, including the yellow fringe prescribed for the divisional flags.The headquarters flag of the First Division, in conformance with the orders, was red. This guidon, with red field and blue border, is that of the First Division, Second Brigade, Fifteenth Corps, which was specified in the General Orders to be, "field div. color, border blue." Indeed, the flag is marked on the hoist edge, "2nd Brigd, 15th A..." Color images of all Union headquarters flags, including for this guidon, can be found in the book, Civil War Battle Flags of the Union Army and Order of Battle, compiled by Gen. C. McKeever, Quartermaster General of the U.S. Army.At the time of issue of this guidon, the First Division was commanded by Bvt. Maj. Gen. Charles R. Woods and the Second Brigade by Col. Robert Catterson. His brigade consisted of the 26th, 40th, 103rd Illinois; 97th and 100th Indiana; 6th Iowa and the 46th Ohio Infantry. The Fifteenth Corps and this division were heavily engaged in the Battle of Bentonville, in North Carolina, on March 21, 1865, before these flags were issued.The story of how the Fifteenth Corps adopted their corps badge may be as much apocryphal as real. The story goes, however, that one day an enlisted man in the corps of Major General John A. "Blackjack" Logan was asked where his corps patch was. Clapping his hand on his cartridge box, he said, "Forty Rounds. Can you show me a better one?" Shortly thereafter Logan issued General Order No. 10 prescribing that the badge for the Fifteenth Corps should be a miniature cartridge box and above the box will be inscribed the words `Forty Rounds.`The Fifteenth Corps was a favorite of Maj. Gen. William T. Sherman probably because he was its first commander after its creation on December 18, 1862. Sherman commanded the corps into the siege of Chattanooga in November 1863 where he took over command of the Army of the Tennessee. Maj. Gen. Frank Blair took over for a short time before being replaced by Maj. Gen. John A. Logan who led the corps through the Atlanta Campaign. In September 1864, Maj. Gen. Peter Osterhaus commanded the corps on the March to the Sea. Logan returned to command in January 1865 for the campaign into South and North Carolina. Maj. Gen. William B. Hazen, commanded the corps from May 1865 though its disbandment in August.Union designating or headquarters flags are quite rare with not that many to be found in museums and even fewer in private hands. These are dominated by the flags of the eastern Army of the Potomac with very few western Union Army headquarters flags surviving, certainly fewer than those of its eastern counterparts. To our knowledge, no other such flag has appeared on the market in the last two decades. An exceptionally rare flag from the end of the Civil War.Greg Biggs, Clarksville, Tennessee.
