 | | Vintage 1940's 14K Rose Gold Filled Tank Wrist Watch Lord Elgin - 21 Jewel - Engraved 1942 WWII
1940's Lord Elgin mechanical wrist watch with a tank style case. The case of this watch has a 14K pink or rose gold filled top and back. The inside of the case is marked "Cased and Timed by Elgin National Watch Co Schwab & Wuischpard 14K Gold Filled". To give an indication of the case size, the front measures 1" wide (including the crown) by 1-5/8" tall (lug to lug). Cosmetic condition: case, crown, dial, and crystal in very good condition. The back of the case is engraved: "G.C. to A.C. 8-13-42". Mechanical condition: will run and keeps good time. In the 1930s, Elgin introduced a “Lord Elgin” line of watches. They are a step up from regular Elgins in at least 2 respects. They were almost always fitted with 21-jewel movements rather than the 17 jewel or 19 jewel movements in regular Elgins. Also gold-filled cased Lord Elgins had gold-filed tops and backs, compared with stainless or base metal combination for plain Elgins. I have no idea when the watch movement was last cleaned, oiled, and timed. It is being sold as is, no guarantee is implied. Insured shipping in the USA will be $8.50, and shipping costs for multiple purchases are automatically discounted.

 | | Vintage 1941 Framed Flag Print `SENTINEL OF FREEDOM` By Adrian Brewer - World War II WWII
Vintage open edition color print with American flag on a pole with the sky and mountains in the background. It is titled The `Sentinel of Freedom` from the original painting by artist Adrian Brewer. The botton left of the print is marked Printed in 1941 by The American Company- Little Rock Ark.` it also has a Union Printer seal and measures 15" X 27" framed. Condition is excellent, the print is not torn, water damaged, or discolored. It was recently taken out of the frame, remated, and the glass cleaned. The frame has a worn finish but has been touched up and is very presentable. The paper that was on the back was replaced and the original label with information on the print and artist was saved.
Many reproductions of the painting `Sentinel of Freedom` were distributed to schools, churches, and individuals during World War II, and the painting has become a staple of modern culture. The painting was commissioned by Little Rock insurance executive Clyde E. Lowry. Lowry was acquainted with Brewer’s work as a combat artist who painted wartime posters and more during World War I. Lowry wanted a painting depicting “the beauty of the flag when the wind had died down and the gentle folds took their natural place.” The separate branches of the armed forces distributed the prints through their ranks. Ships that went to sea during World War II carried a print on board, and USOs had a print hung in their halls; it also hung in Congressman Brook Hays’s office in Washington DC. A print of the flag hung in many classrooms throughout Arkansas. Lowry received several thousand letters concerning the painting and thousands of requests for reproductions of it from such notables as automobile manufacturer Henry Ford, poet Edward A. Guest, former president Herbert Hoover, Republican presidential candidate Wendell Willkie, and General George W. Marshall. After the unveiling, it toured Washington DC in the 1940s, and Brewer autographed the prints being sold. The original finally ended up in the Little Rock Museum of Fine Arts, where it remained for several years. Lowry and Edwina Brewer, wife of Adrian Brewer, along with their families, presented the original to the U.S. Naval Academy, Assembly Hall Library, in Annapolis, Maryland, on March 1, 1964, where it is still displayed.

 | | 1924 Sterling Silver (USMA) United States Military Academy Bracelet - L. Markowitz N.Y. - "Donald Dean Rule" West Point
SOLD!!!
1924 vintage sterling silver USMA or United States Military Academy bracelet. This bracelet was made from a napkin ring. The original napkin ring was cut, spread and reshaped. It was probably repurposed as a bracelet in the 1940's. The bracelet measures 5-1/4" long with a 1-1/4" gap in the rear, the total length is 6-1/2". It is 1-1/4" wide and the front has the applied abbreviation "USMC". The ends of the bracelet are engraved "Donald Dean Rule Class of 1924".

Insured shipping in the USA will be $9.50, and shipping costs for multiple purchases are automatically discounted. Orders from most foreign countries are no problem.
The USMA class year book of 1924 has an entry for Donald Dean Rule. It reads as follows: "DONALD DEAN RULE " Dee Dee " — " D. D. " Senatorial SPOKANE Washington. To Rule we award the degree of I.E., meaning "Indifferent Engi-neer". By this, we mean he is an engineer by nature, but finds it too, much trouble to follow his natural bent. His favorite mode of procedure is to find out the assignment on the way to the writ-room and drift home half an hour early, with a cold 3.0 in his tenth box. To his tendency to solve problems that were never intended to be solved several of us owe quite a chunk of the gold bars that will adorn our shoulders in the near future. He was always ready to help the chap who needed the tenths. Rule hasn't decided what his future is going to be, but his plans always include acquiring a considerable fortune. Inasmuch as he has chosen the Air Service, we think he'll stand a good chance to get the coin all right — if he takes out enough insurance. T'lio hundred forly-lico."
