Our job is about more than transportation ―
it's about helping our clients to achieve their goals:
The
following example is an excerpt from Antiques and the Arts
Weekly, following the Bedford, New York show:
Although new to this show, Bridgman reported excellent results,
selling six flags, including a very rare example that depicted Lady
Columbia [photo at top left], made for the 1876 Centennial
Celebration, the only exact flag of its kind currently known to
exist. "The flag is going to a fine collection in one of the most
beautiful offices in midtown Manhattan, so its new home could not be
more fitting," said the Dillsburg, Penn., dealer. "There is one
other that I sold last year from the same maker, in basically the
same style, but both the size and the portrait were different. It
was also the only known example. I have many more sales pending that
could happen, and thus I look forward to returning next year."
Ironically, Bridgman added that he had actually forgotten to bring
the Lady Columbia flag to the show. "It was supposed to be my
centerpiece, as I knew that I had several clients coming that might
have a strong interest in it. In desperation, I called Fred Louv at
Mizzentop transportation services to see if they could go to my home
and retrieve it before the show opened. They came through as always;
it was a long drive on short notice, and I wholeheartedly thank them
for it."
