Henry Richard Boehm was born in Illinois around 1870.
By 1905 he had moved to New York. He lived in Briarcliff Manor, New York in
Westchester County near Ossining. He is listed in the 1910 NY Census with
his wife and adopted daughter. He was an artist of some note whose work
appeared on the covers and inside several magazine like COSMOPOLITAN,
LESLIE'S WEEKLY, PEARSON'S, and LADIES' WORLD. He received strong praise
from the editors of COSMOPOLITAN who claimed to have "discovered" Boehm.
Despite this apparent success, he committed suicide on February 1, 1914
It is called Grand Slam. It is a boxed limited addition set that has 2 decks of playing cards (unopened) on the top and then under the divider is 4 porcelain ashtrays of the first 4 presidents. Unfortunately I cannot include a picture at this time. Ij ust moved and cannot find the cable for my computer.
My husband and I bought this house that was built in 1925. The owner inherited the hosue from her parents who are the original owners. I cant find any writing on the chandelier. It is heavy with prism swags, 8 lite. It appears there is a brass finish or something similiar over the original material. If you look closely it appears to have some red on it too. If anyone knows about this please help-very curious.
Thanks
