Always On Time! 6 Pharmacy Memorabilia Takes Center Stage at Hack’s Auction in Pecatonica, Illinois Article & photos by Brian Maloney It was a full house as usual at the Hack’s Auction Center for the late March event. And every piece of the thousands of examples of antique and vintage drug store memorabilia came from a single consignor: Pinnow Pharmacy, still very much in business right on Main Street in little Brodhead, Wisconsin. It’s had several names as it’s been bought and sold over the generations, understandable for a pharmacy that’s served Brodhead for around 125 years and counting. They did have a problem though: countless boxes of antique and vintage drug store advertising, fixtures, and stock that had been accumulating since the 19th century. Luckily, someone there gave Hack’s Auction & Realty a call. “It’s among the best drug store auctions we’ve ever held,” auctioneer Swan Hachmeister told me, “and we encountered many odd devices that took a while to identify.” Swan showed me one example, a little cast iron machine with gears and a crank. It turned out to be a pharmacist’s cork roller, used to compress tiny corks before they were inserted in pill bottles. A buyer later paid $95 for the device. Swan had a little help with its identification though: a 1914 Peter Van Schaack & Sons illustrated pharmacy catalog that was found in one of the boxes. And sure enough, that exact cork roller was offered in the catalog, along with thousands of other drug store supplies of the day. The hardcover book was in pristine condition, and later sold for $350. Of course, the drug store advertising pieces found ready buyers too. That previously mentioned Dr. Price’s Extracts display case that made $1,100 was the winner among them. Another glass showcase, this one sporting a “Quincy Show Case” metal plaque, sold for $700. Other auction highlights included everything from a matched set of vintage light-up show jars that sold for $450 to an oak display table with steel “goat feet” that made a surprising $475. Some other prices: · · · · · · · · Blue glass fire grenade - $130 18” blown glass display dome - $110 New-in-box Noma aluminum Christmas tree - $100 Brass horse suppository mold - $100 Remington Express Cartridges wooden crate - $95 Blown glass apothecary jar, applied green ribs - $85 Group of vintage Roy Rogers child’s clothing - $65 1837 Veterinary Arts booklet, rough - $40 Auctioneers for the day were Swan and Greg Hachmeister. Hack’s Auction & Realty has been serving northern Illinois’ auction needs for nearly sixty years. They conduct auctions of all kinds - both onsite and at their dedicated auction facility in Pecatonica, Illinois. In fact founder Henry “Hack” Hachmeister called his first auction back in 1956 on the same afternoon that Pitching great Don Larson threw a nohitter in that year’s World Series! And while Illinois Hall of Fame Auctioneer Hack Hachmeister is no longer with us, his legacy lives on through the firm’s commitment to conducting fast, fun, & honest auctions year ’round. Hack’s Auction & Realty can be contacted at 815-239-1436. Be sure to check out (and register at) their Website www.hacksauction.com. It’s fully interactive: you can leave bids, search for items in any category, or get e-mail notifications of any chosen items that are included in upcoming auctions. With multiple auctions taking place each month, it’s a big help. And as always, keep an eye out for all of Hack’s upcoming auctions in the Auction Action News! This windup glass cigar cutter with “The Harvester” advertising made $310 despite extensive damage. Several antique balance scales sold - the best a marble & oak example that made $110. Trio of penny candy jars with lids - $105. A large group of 19th century herb vials sold complete with a Henry Thayer & Co. catalog for $350. Matched set of four vintage ceiling fixtures - $150. This Family Remedies oak cash register base made $210. It took a $350 bid to win this 1914 Peter Van Schaack and Sons illustrated pharmacy supply catalog. Boxed set of S. Kirk & Sons Sterling flatware - $450. This Pitcairn Water Spar display jar made $190, this Pittsburgh Varnish jar $110. This group of mercury glass hanging shades made $245. Many new-old-stock Sheaffer’s Pen sets crossed the block at up to $65 each. 7 A $330 bid took this pair of jumbo milk glass pendant lamps. More than 125 years of Brodhead, Wisconsin pharmacy history crossed the block at the March 28th Auctioneer Greg Hachmeister sale - from 19th century almanacs to pharmacy looks for bids on a (misspelled) account ledgers dating back to the 1890s. Broadhead, Wis. Farmer’s Mutual tin sign that sold for $350. Second-generation auctioneer Swan Hachmeister called bids at the March 28th sale, held at the Hack’s Auction facility in Pecatonica, Illinois. It took a $440 bid to win this counter-top electric arc cigar lighter. It was a full-house for the Saturday sale, held just west of Rockford, Illinois in the little town of Pecatonica. This early cast iron Star window shade cutter fetched $290. Broadhead, Wisconsin’s Pinnow Pharmacy is still a thriving business in the little town, which finally parted with more than a century’s worth of drug store artifacts at the March auction. A jumbo porcelain mortar and this Flatto Mfg. stamp vendor each sold for $55. Silver plate & glass cruet set - $90. Two early 1900s John Deere catalogs $82.50. Early Acme #2 stapler – $55. The “what is it?” lot of the sale: this antique pharmacist’s cork compressor that sold for $95 - complete with cork supply. Countless antique apothecary jars sold for up to $85 each. This Parker Bros. United States Map jigsaw puzzle made $32.50, this Shurtleff’s Ice Cream tin tray $80. There were boxfuls of new-old-stock medicines to choose from, most selling for around $50. Pair of vintage acrylic Diuril advertising figures $77.50. Set of three vintage Christmas display dolls - $95. Dealers & Buyers from Across the Country Swarm Chicago for the Annual Chicagoland Antique Advertising, Slot Machine & Jukebox Show Article & photos by Jack Kelly It was a 1,200-mile drive to the show for William Bil of Silver Springs, Fla. The dealer pointed with pride to a “very rare” Mills 1936 Tycoon pinball game that offered cash payouts for skilled players. The fancy nickel-plated 4-foot-long device was priced at $2,900. Drawing attention at the same spot was a 1920s “new old stock” hand-carved carousel camel, complete with glass eyes, tagged at $7,500. It was a shorter drive for the dealer across the aisle, Bob Baxa, of Plainfield, Ill., who showed off a load of juke boxes. Many folks stopped to admire his 1958 Rockola 1464 wall mount Juke with custom floor stand, measuring 65-inches tall priced at $6,700. The 10-year veteran also offered a mix of brand new retro jukes that could play records at your place for $8,800 to $10,000 each. Favorite rock 'n roll tunes could be heard from a restored Seeburg 100 juke box playing at the booth of Bob and Richard Sandage of Louisville, Ky. The brothers, 25-year regulars at the sem-annual Chicagoland event, hung a tag of $6,500 on the front of the machine and a fully fancy restored and replated 2 _-foot-tall 15-cent cigarette machine could be taken home from the brothers for $2,100. Still more vending machines were on display at the booth of Randy Razoog of Grand Rapids, Mich. A 9-inch-tall cast metal 1920s penny-operated “Nut House” machine, shaped like a house, could vend goodies at your place for $1,750. At the same spot, a 16-inch-tall tin and glass Master 1-cent gumball machine was priced at $345. Razoog said he had been showing at Chicagoland on and off “since the beginning.” Several shelves jammed with slot machines, trade stimulators and other coin operated items filled the booth of Alan Sax of nearby Long Grove, Ill. Many stopped to admire - and try - his early 5-cent Clawson dice throwing machine priced at $17,500. Still another dice machine was a 25-cent Bally that could entertain you for $16,500. There were two tags on the restored 6-foot-tall Normandy Chimes National Penny Scale offered by Jeff Storck of Round Hill, Va. One tag stated $6,500 - and the other said “sold!” The fancy oddball scale played a deep rich series of melodic chimes when a penny was dropped in - and would return your penny if you were lucky, all the while reading your weight. The penny scale collector/dealer said he has 450 circa 1890s - 1940s machines at home in “a big basement and a big building.” “I love Chicago,” said Charlie Molnar a retired Chicago policeman who set up at the show and offered a massive display of more than 200 badges priced from $25 to $900. The badges ranged in age from the early 1900s to the 1960s. Many folks stopped to admire his pair of restored cast iron police and fire call-boxes, complete with single floor stand, priced at $2,900 for the whole package.. At the same spot, two small fry shoppers go “eye to eye” with a hand carved carousel camel priced at $7,500. (352) 438-0091. The Chicagoland Show houses over 300 dealers inside, split between the Pheasant Run Mega Center and the ballroom. Although a two-head countertop “partners fan” which could cool two people at once, are considered rare there were TWO of them offered by Otto Dorris of Bixby, Okla. Taking still another step into rarity, one of them was water powered! The 1880s Indiana Waterfan, with fancy nickel-plated cast iron clawfoot base could move air at your house for $6,000. The more conventional chrome plated 1950s electric motor model could do the job for $750. Advertising sign collectors hovered around the booth of Skip Urich of Pittsburg, Kan., for a look at his early 1900s rolled edge 18 x by 14-inch tin Paul Jones Louisville, Ky., whiskey advertising sign. Titled “The Temptation of St. Anthony,” it depicted a farm scene with a black woman holding watermelon slice, a young lad on his knees and an elderly black man displaying a bottle of whiskey. As browsers pointed to the $2,950 price tag, one of them said, “Mark it sold” “I always buy and sell oddball stuff at the show,” said Bill Howard of Akron, Ohio, and once again he didn't disappoint. Many people stopped to admire his early 1900s 24-inch-tall papier mache' animated figure of a top hated black man with outstretched arm. His head, arm and eyes moved or nodded with a breeze or nudge. Howard said the figure was “very rare to find in this fine condition” and added, “$4,000 gets it home.” Vintage gas and oil items were plentiful at the Chicagoland Show and 30year veteran Randy Ross filled three booths inside and a trailerfull outside. Traveling from Hampshire, Ill., Ross said prices ranged from $400 to $4,000, with “a whole lot of goodies selling at the show. One of the most unusual signs at the show was at the booth of Melissa Ziel and Adam Bernasek of nearby Elgin, Ill. The handmade cardboard piece stated: “Please BUY and help fund our honeymoon.” The engaged couple offered an eclectic mix of collectables, saying they were targeting a September Honeymoon. As the show ended, Melissa said they were happy to net $2,000 for “75 percent of our needs.” Several families said they were at the show to celebrate spring break. As one father said, “”I'm here buying and selling while the wife and kids are enjoying the two swimming pools at Pheasant Run. One of the pools offers a partial wall on one end where children of all ages can duck underneath for outside or inside swims. The dad added with a chuckle, “they're having fun all day and so am I.” The next Chicagoland Advertising Slot Machine and Juke Box Show will be held Nov. 14, 15 and 16.

Next we are only taking select high quality auctions and putting all our effort into these sales”. “We feel buyers want to know if they see an All American Auction advertised, they know the quality is outstanding and they should be there”.

Continued from pages 8 & 9 “I'm the Rockola dealer for Illinois,” said Bob Baxa of Planfield, Ill. His booth was filled with fine examples both vintage and recent models playing music for all to enjoy. (815) 436-2079. “$1,000 will take it home,” said Ron Steinquist of Joliet, Ill. pointing to his 1800's wood table model music box with nine metal discs. He smiled showing off a 1950s Football/basketball pocket timer purchased at the show, stating, “this one is going home.” (815) 741-2466. Antiques Abbreviations by Mike Paul A while ago a reader asked about explaining some of the abbreviations they encounter in auction ads. This got me thinking about the abbreviations auctioneers use and why we use them. After a phone call to Gloria I offered to put together a listing. By definition, an abbreviation is a shortened form of a word or phrase used for brevity. Within context and reason it identifies certain aspects of a piece to the buyer without needlessly going into detail. A lamp buyer will know what a “bracket lamp” is. It’s unnecessary to say, “Victorian cast iron wall bracket with mercury glass reflector, chimney & drop in finger font”. Most auctioneers use abbreviations in order to keep the size of the ad affordable. However it can be too much of a good thing and some of the more arcane descriptions can confuse or mislead the reader. To a person who collects a particular category most abbreviations in that category are readily recognized. To anybody else they are probably gibberish. Even a novice farm toy buyer won’t need a three day weekend to decipher IH, McD & JD. WWI & WWII are obvious but would most folks recognize CW (Civil War) out of context? Coins, firearms, Hummels (152/A TMK3 UB K255 HB, anyone?) and other categories all have their own abbreviations that often are exclusive to that field. But if you are a glassware buyer does it really matter if you can’t translate a 28g, o/u, d-bbl, ss w/syn stock and vr? Some descriptions, while not technically correct, get the point across. For example “Jewel T’, (which is short for Jewel Tea, a grocery chain) takes up less space than “Autumn Leaf”, (a pattern name for china offered as a premium by Jewel Tea). This may seem like a trivial difference but similar descriptions over several publications begin to add up. A listing that encompassed all of the collecting fields would be more of a project than I can take on but the following abbreviations should get you through most ads for antique auctions. If you have others you’d like to add to the list or that you’ve wondered about, please email them to me at [email protected]. A&C - Arts & Crafts. Refers to the style of furniture usually associated with early 1900s Stickley. Often but erroneously referred to as Mission or Prairie. ABC - American Brilliant Cut. Refers to the “Brilliant” period of late 19th/early 20th century American cut glass B&H – Bradley & Hubbard. A manufacturer of quality lighting and decorative accessories. B&W – Blue & White. The glaze colors used on utilitarian stoneware that was often found in the kitchen. CI - Cast Iron. COP – Century Of Progress. Typically refers to souvenirs hauled back from the Chicago World’s Fair of 1933/34. Even in the middle of the Great Depression, a lot of Wisconsinites made the trip to see the COP. CRS - Somebody explained this to me once, but I can’t seem to remember what they said. 17 Gas station memorabilia dealer Randy Ross of Hampshire, Ill,, spread out at several booths inside along with a full trailer of goodies outside. (847) 561-4110 Dmg - Damage. gl - Gallon. Typically used when advertising stoneware capacity For Rest - For Restoration. Don’t go to the auction expecting a cream puff. GBCF - Glass Ball Claw Foot. Describes the foot usually found on late Victorian parlor and lamp tables. GWTW - Gone With The Wind. A style of lamp with a matching font and top globe. Correctly referred to as a parlor lamp but popularly known as a Gone With The Wind, after the movie of the same name. LRRH- Little Red Riding Hood. Typically refers to the Regal China products that feature her. MIB - Mint In Box. Any item, but often a toy, that is in the same condition as new and in the original box. MOP - Mother of Pearl. Polished nacre usually derived from mollusk shells. Typically found in jewelry, ladies dresser articles, buttons and in the windows of RPOG art. NIB - New In Box. Similar to above but often assumed to be of modern production NOS - New Old Stock. Old merchandise, often with original manufacturer’s tags and merchant’s price tags, that has never been sold or used. NWOT - New With Original Tags, but sometimes used as New With Out Tags. eBay sellers are usually guilty of using this both ways. If buying online, clarify before bidding. o/b - Outboard. An outboard motor. OOB - Oil on Board. Art work done on a board, usually Masonite. OOC - Oil on Canvas. Art work done on canvas. Pre Pro - Pre Prohibition, prior to 1920. Refers specifically to alcohol related advertising. Post Pro - Post Prohibition, after 1933. Refers specifically to alcohol related advertising. QA - Queen Anne. Generally refers to a 1920’s or 30’s revival style exemplified by a cabriole leg. Repro - Reproduction. A good definition would require a separate article but you get the idea. Occasionally people will use the slang “Repop” for repro or “Repo” which is inaccurate and what happens to your car when Vinnie pulls up in a tow truck. RPOG - Reverse Painted on Glass. Less common as ROG. Any item where the design or artwork has been applied to the obverse side of the glass but typically a lamp shade, decorative framed art or advertising items. RPPC – Real Photo Post Card. Differentiates a post card that was printed, (developed) off your film from one that was commercially printed. These were so popular that Kodak marketed the 3A folder specifically for the RPPC. RR – Railroad. RW – Red Wing. Red Wing, or less often, the several other stoneware companies that called Red Wing, MN their home. /s/ - Signed. s/g - Salt Glaze. Refers to the type of glaze used on stoneware and to differentiate it from the later, more common, zinc glaze. TOC - Tin Over Cardboard. A type of sign made of tin wrapped over a piece of paperboard and hung by a piece of short thread mounted to the back side of the sign. Commonly used in the 1930’s and 40’s by brewing and other industries. T&S- Time & Strike. Refers to clock movements. Differentiates between time only and striking movements. 18 UPCOMING EVENTS THE ORIGINAL OLMSTED COUNTY GOLD RUSH Antique Show & Flea Market Rochester, MN - Fairgrounds MAY 8, 9 & 10 America’s #1 Shopping Market 1,400+ Dealers • 10 Bldgs • 52 Acres Bldgs.

Celluloid was invented in 1869 by the American inventor, John Wesley Hyatt. It was developed from the compound Cellulose, which is a combination of wood fiber and cotton fiber. In 1862 the British inventor, Alexander Parkes, was given credit for inventing Cellulose — the first true plastic. He named it Parkesine. In those early years there was much chemical experimentation with Parkesine. They were looking for ways to stabilize and manipulate it so as to manufacture products for the ever-growing world market. Although treating it with nitric acid produced many uses for it, this method went by the wayside because it was still too unstable and very costly to manufacture. Around the same time that all of this chemical experimentation was going on, an American company called Phelan and Collender in 1862 offered a prize of $10,000 to anyone that could invent a satisfactory substitute for Ivory. They used Ivory, which came primarily from elephant tusks, for the manufacturing of billiard balls. The game of Billiards was gaining in popularity at that time and elephant tusks were becoming increasingly scarce. The company that offered the $10,000 prize is still in business today and is known as the Brunswick Corporation. The American inventor John Wesley Hyatt took up the challenge in 1862. Hyatt, who had over 100 patents to his name, was determined to win the $10,000 prize. One day in the mid-1860's while working in his lab, he accidently spilled a bottle of Colloidine on the Cellulose material that he was experimenting with. He found that it congealed his Cellulose into a tough, flexible mass. He decided to make a demo set of billiard balls with this new material. This new material worked to some extent, but it was still too unstable. It frequently caused small explosions when the billiard balls collided and the billiard balls would sometimes shatter because they had become too brittle. So back to the laboratory he went. In 1868 he found a solution to these problems. He found that when Camphor, which is a by-product of the Laurel tree, was added to the raw Cellulose it caused the problems to disappear. He filed for a patent in 1869, and he named his new product, Celluloid. This product was the first thermoplastic: a substance molded under heat and pressure that would retain its shape when the heat and pressure were removed. He also won the $10,000 prize. Buttons were not on the list of the many products that used Celluloid in their manufacturing processes in those early years. Combs, pins, umbrella handles, eyeglass frames, dentures, piano keys, photographic film, and billiard balls all preceded buttons. The use of Celluloid in button manufacturing did not start to appear until one or two decades later. The earliest buttons that used Celluloid used it as a clear sheet to protect lithographs and for background and trim. Today, those earliest buttons that used Celluloid are called Victorian Celluloid buttons. The first patent for the Celluloid tighttop button wasn't made until the year 1917. The tight-top Celluloid buttons were the most abundant type of Celluloid buttons made and thus, most Celluloid buttons are classified as Modern vs. Antique buttons. Celluloid buttons reached their peak in the late 1930's, but by the 1940's were being phased out and replaced by other plastic type material buttons. The first patent for the Celluloid tighttop button wasn't made until the year 1917.

Celluloid buttons reached their peak in the late 1930's, but by the 1940's were being phased out and replaced by other plastic type material buttons. The main reason that Celluloid lost its luster was because of its high flammability and its degradation problems. The common degradation problem occurred because the Camphor worked its way out of the button. This degradation when combined with water or water vapor would form a nitric acid gas that is very corrosive to metal, fabric, paper, and other materials. Extreme heat and UV ray exposure also contributed to the problem. Those things caused the button, or buttons to become brittle and they would develop deep crazing. The buttons affected would completely crumble away in time. What can you do if you see this type of damage to your buttons? The answer is nothing because there is no way to stop this degradation once it has begun. The buttons affected should be discarded and the remaining buttons should be given a light cleaning. How can you prevent this from happening to your buttons? Celluloid buttons should be Image courtesy of stored separately from your other buttons, particvintagebuttons.net ularly metals. They should be kept out of direct UV exposure and they should have proper ventilation and temperature controls. With the proper care most all of your Celluloid buttons will be around for many years to come. After reading this short history on Celluloid, button collectors should have a deep appreciation for the antique billiard balls of the past because without them, Celluloid buttons would never have been invented, and thus, we would not have any to collect. Finally, do you know what the only Celluloid product now made in any quantity is? The answer is the ping-pong ball!
