PLEASE NOTE: We are BOTH IN THE OFFICE as of MONDAY 06/09,
BUT this is somewhat Temporary,
So we will be keeping the Yellow Notification up through EARLY JULY!!
As we will be doing 4 shows over the next 3 weekends, and I will be on then road with most of our Military Artifacts from 6/18 to as late as 7/04 so there could be delays in shipping!!
Update 06/09/25: WE ARE still EXPERIENCING SOME TECHNICAL ISSUES WITH non-PayPal CREDIT CARD PURCHASES!!
We Hope to FINALLY Have this Issue CORRECTED by July or August!!
If you would like to PAY for an Artifact with a CREDIT CARD, please email and I will get an invoice emailed to you ASAP!
We are HAPPY TO ACCEPT YOUR ORDERS during this time, and we will promptly SHIP MOST orders within ONE Business Day of Receipt of Payment!
And, as always, if you would like to fund your $100.00+ order through a Bank that offers ZELLE, ASK ABOUT our ZELLE DISCOUNT!!

ARTIFACT:
What we have here is a lovely Waltham Watch Grade No. 620, Size 16s, Model 1899, 15 Jewels in a 20 Year Hunter Case. The watch has an elaborate monogram on the exterior, JAS, and is beautifully engraved on the interior to a Certified Accountant:

ON THE
OCCASION
Of his leaving for Chicago
JANUARY 1909
And perhaps the most interesting feature of the watch is the beautiful "Gibson Girl" whose portrait fills the enamel dial!
J. Angus Steven had a long career in Illinois: in Chicago at least through 1925, and still practicing in Wilmette in 1953, almost 50 years from his departure for Chicago!
