Last week, in Manhattan, snuff boxes, chairs, desks, paintings, tapestries, busts, the wide golden branches in which tall candles had once burned brightly, were offered for sale at the American Art Galleries. These???877 pieces which had formed the collection of the late Mrs. William Salomon, wife of famed Banker William Salomon?were considered to comprise, with few exceptions,* the finest such collection in the world...
