Scrolling Stations of the Cross Koenig Brothers 1904 Religious Wall Hanging Holy Water Font Crucifix by HappyFortuneVintage

$
0
0

185.00 USD

This Koenig Brothers scrolling stations of the cross is an amazing antique religious wall hanging. Dated 1904, the scrolling passion of Christ scenes are activated by hand turning the wooden knobs on the side of the wooden casing. There are 14 lithographed scenes of the passion of Christ and chalk ware figures of three woman. Going by the gospel according to John the woman are Jesus' mother Mary, his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas & Mary Magdalene.

The piece has a rustic, primitive look and shows its 110 years. It is missing the front glass or wooden piece that originally covered the scroll mechanism (I have seen these pieces with both types of fronting). The chalkware figures have some very small chips and paint loss. The chalkware block of figures is secured to the wooden backing with metal wires that extend through and secure onto the back of the piece. The nail at the base of the metal crucifix is missing. I dusted the piece, but it could use a good cleaning if you don't care for the patina of age. There are some chips and dings in the wood.

The Koenig Brothers, based in Jersey City, N.J. produced and sold religious objects. Legend has it that they sold their pieces door to door. This version of their stations of the cross is the rarer one as it has a metal holy water font at the base of the crucifix.

Please pay attention as you scroll. The lithograph paper scroll, although in good over all condition, shows wear at the edges and soiling. Scroll carefully as not to overextend the paper on the wooden dowels. The scroll is dated "1904" and "Koenig Brothers" at the bottom. Photographs 2 and 5 show the station of the cross scenes that have the most wear. Most of the scene are in better condition.

Send me a message if you would like additional photographs of the piece.

The piece is large -- 26" tall x 10" wide x 3 1/2" at its widest point.

Super 1970s vintage silk screened textile by House N Home Fabric & Draperies, this generous sized remnant is big enough for a multitude of sewing or craft projects. The intricate botanical paisley print has various shades of brown, muted orange, rust, gold & sage. Look closely in the pattern and you'll see little butterflies.

This fabric is heavy, and although it is not marked cotton, my guess is that it is woven from cotton.

You'll find the Belgian Congo (1908 - 1960), French West Africa (1895 - 1960), French Equatorial Africa (1910 - 1959), the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland (1953 - 1963) & Bechuanaland (1885 - 1966), none of which exist today.

The globe is made of coated paper gores over pressboard and has a black wire base with red "feet" to protect your table surface. It has a full metal meridian and a night/day dial at the top.

Gallagher's Restaurant -- Vintage Menu-- New York City Ephemera -- Culinary Food History by HappyFortuneVintage

22.00 USD

Vintage Gallagher's lunch menu gives an interesting view into the culinary history of an old-fashion New York City steakhouse.

Originally open in 1926 as a speakeasy by Ziegfeld girl Helen Gallagher, the icon New York City steakhouse was a mainstay restaurant in the Theater District for 87 years. Closed in 2013, the restaurant recently reopened with a spruced up interior.

Word has it the new owners maintained the horseshoe-shaped bar and windowed meat locker as well as 100s of framed photographs of celebrities and sports figures. The graphic design of this vintage lunch menu showcases some of the legendary photographs. I believe this menu is from the 1970s, but it may be older.

The menu is in good condition with wear at the corners and around the edges, but no paper loss. There are a few spots on the front and on the back. Please take a good look at the photographs. The menu will come to you encased in an acid-free archival sleeve.

The menu measures 14" x 9 3/4."
