SA-2603 Fantastic large format, heavy bronze plaque,
made from metal salvaged from the USS Maine. Measures 17.5 x
12.75 inches. They were not available to the public, but
could be requested by Cities, towns and Veterans
organizations. Thet were meant to be displayed in public
spaces and have providions to be hung or have posts inserted
into the rear to be affixed to outdoor display areas. In
1898, an explosion caused the
USS Maine to sink in
Havana Harbor, Cuba. It remained submerged, one of its masts
still visible above the water for over a decade. In 1911,
Congress authorized the raising of the Maine to investigate
the cause of the
explosion, recover
remains, and clear the wreckage from the harbor. During the
recovery and investigation, metal was salvaged from the ship
and used to create memorial plaques like this one. Maine
memorial plaques were commissioned by the Bureau of
Engraving. Each plaque is numbered and stamped on the
reverse. This plaque bears the number 1753 and has been
polished at some time in the past.
The plaque is embossed "In Memoriam / U.S.S. Maine /
Destroyed in Havana Harbor / February 15th 1898 / This
tablet is cast from metal recovered from the U.S.S. Maine."
The tablet has a twisted rope border. On the right side is a
female figure clothed in a robe, wearing a Phrygian cap,
carrying a shield, and her right arm outstretched towards a
palm branch. The circular shield has Patriotism and Devotion
in a circle of stars surrounding a seal. The seal has the
shield of the United States below an eagle clutching arrows
in its talons. Below the shield is a laurel branch and an
oak leaf branch. In the background of the plaque can be seen
the mast and remnants of the sinking Maine. The lower right
corner is stamped "© C. KECK Sc. / 1913 Cast By / Jno.
Williams Inc. / N.Y." The bottom edge is stamped 1228. On
the reverse, the top left corner is stamped "Tablet No 1753
/ Charles Keck, Sculptor / Cast By / Jno Williams Inc. /
Bronze Foundry / New York / 1913." $1895

SA-2392
1902 Watercolor Painting of American Soldiers returning from
the Philippines after the Philippine American War of
1899-1902, by the Midwestern American illustrator, Allen
Christian Redwood (1844-1922). Redwood was one of the few
Civil War sketch artists who also served in the war. During
the late 19th century he became a Western
Illustrator for Harper’s, Century, and several other
magazines. …… Painting measures, 17x 23 inches. Watercolor
Painting is signed and dated, “A.C. Redwood 1902.” This
painting depicts Spanish American War infantry soldiers
waiting to board a Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad
train. This finely executed watercolor is in excellent
unrestored condition and comes in a 24
x 30 inch painted frame. There is toning to the
mat and some light surface wear to the frame.
In a very interesting discovery,
I just found that the artist painted a different version of
this painting in 1898, called "Regulars Leaving for the
Front", which was published in the Collier's History of the
Spanish American War. This large format book had large
lithographs which could be removed for framing. It is
interesting to spot the differences in the painting.
Addition of more horses, one Soldier removed, removal of a
train smokestack etc!! I have attached images of the
lithograph for comparison.
