- NEWCOMB COLLEGE TEAPOTNewcomb College
NEWCOMB COLLEGE TEAPOTNewcomb College Pottery teapot, scenic landscape design, carved to depict trees draped in Spanish moss with blue and green matte glaze. Impressed marks to base: registration mark RY (made 1929), shape number 191, potted by Jonathan Browne Hunt (1876-1943, at Newcomb 1927-1933) and decorated by Anna Francis Simpson. 5" H x 5" diameter x 8" length (including spout). According to the book Newcomb Pottery by Jessie Poesch, Miss Simpson received her diploma of art from Newcomb College in New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1906. She registered as a Graduate Art student for 1906-1908 and joined the ranks of Art Craftsmen from 1908-1923 and 1924-1929. She died in 1930. The book goes on to state that "Miss Simpson exhibited an individuality in her pottery and embroidery that made her a master of her crafts... in 1929, Miss Simpson won a silver medal for the best pottery at the Ninth Annual Exhibition of the Southern States Art League held in San Antonio, for an Espanol design." Note that this teapot differs from other known Newcomb College teapots in that the design is scenic, not floral, and has a lid with a broad, wide knob as opposed to a small finial. However, the lid's glaze and buff body match that of the pot. Provenance: Inherited by consignor from Rosa Rainold Graner, 1904 - 1962, who graduated from Newcomb School of Art in 1926, specialist in ceramic sculpture, awarded the title of Master Craftsman (work was done under her married name, Rai Graner Murray).
Condition:
Firing flaw to interior rim; 1/16" flake to tip of spout. Hairlines to interior around spout which do not extend to exterior and do not fluoresce under blacklight.

- FRED DENNETT ARCHIVE, INC. TIN INGOTIngot
FRED DENNETT ARCHIVE, INC. TIN INGOTIngot and archive originally belonging to Fred Dennett, 32nd Commissioner of the General Land Office, 1908-1913. 1st item: South Dakota tin ingot stamped "Nigger Hill", with Stephen F. Molitor, assayer mark, Deadwood, Dakota Territory. 1" H x 2" W x 1" D. 108.9 grams. Late 19th century. Note: The ingot inscription refers to a tin and gold mining area in the Black Hills of South Dakota, discovered by African Americans. Author Hyman Palais explained the origin of the name of the "Consolidated Nigger Hill Tin Mines" in an article "Black Hills Miners' Folklore" in California Folklore Quarterly, Vol. 4, No. 3. (July, 1945), pp. 256: "Another story tells how a group of Negroes from Montana came to the Hills in the early days of the gold rush and asked some miners where they should go to work. The miners jokingly advised them to try the top of a near-by hill, the least likely spot they could think of. Much to the surprise of everyone, luck crowned their efforts, and these Negroes found more gold in this out-of-the-way place... than many of the gulch miners had discovered below." The area was also found to have the largest deposit of tin in North America, so much so that it also became known as "Tinton". Stephen Molitor came from a family of assayers. He went into business with his father around 1858 in San Francisco and then worked as a traveling assayer, arriving in South Dakota by 1885. There he joined with others to form the American Tin Mining Company (for which he served as assayer). 2nd item: Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition Seattle 1909 diploma, signed by J. E. Chilberg, President of the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition, and others, dated October 16th, 1909, awarded to Fred Dennett, Comissioner, General Land Office, "for Collaborator for Exhibit of Valuable Services Rendered". Diploma features engraved vignettes of men fishing, a lumber yard, a miner using a hydraulic jet below a female representation of the exhibition holding minerals, and portraits of a Japanese woman holding a model of a ship and an American woman with a model train (symbolizing a meeting of East and West). Gilt exhibition seal lower center. 15 5/8" H x 19 7/8" W. 3rd item: Holton-Arms School Washington, D.C. diploma, signed by Jessie Moon Holton, dated May 29th, 1915, awarded to Dorothy Dixon Dennett, "who has satisfactorily completed the General Course of study proscribed by this school". 14 3/4" H x 19 5/8" W.
