RARE EXAMPLES OF THE SCRIMSHAW ART 
 
 THE MOST IMPORTANT COLLECTION 
 
 EVER OFFERED AT PUBLIC SALE 
 
 NUMBERS 17-67 
 SCRIMSHAW, OR SCRIMSHAWING 
 
 SCRIMSHAW :—A nautical word of unstable orthography; origin unknown. 
 To engrave various fanciful designs on shells, whales’ teeth, walrus tusks, 
 etc.; in general, to execute any piece of ingenious mechanical work. 
 (Sailor’s language.) —Century Dictionary. 
 
 One of the most fruitful sources of amusement to a whale fisherman and 
 one which often so engrosses his time and attention as to cause him to 
 neglect his duties, is known as scrimshawing. Serimshawing, which by 
 the way is the more acceptable form of the term, is the art of manufac- 
 turing useful and ornamental articles at sea.—Fisheries of U.S. V-II-231. 
 
 The above are the only two technical definitions obtainable. Scrimshaw- 
 ing, however, meant much to the old “salt”, marooned at sea as he often 
 was for indefinite periods. It was not only his expression of individual 
 art, but also the medium through which he recorded the incidents and 
 impressions of his hazardous daily life. 
 
 The subjects, or compositions of subjects, were naturally of the sea or 
 whale fishing, as this was really the extent of the old “‘salt’s” existence. 
 The actual execution was done either with a jack-knife, or preferably, a 
 sail needle, which was large enough for the sailor to handle and at the 
 same time strong enough and sharp enough to make an excellent etching 
 tool. 
 
 Opinions differ as to when the earliest example of the art appeared, but 
 we are sure that some specimens date back to the late 18th century, and 
 that more and probably better specimens were done during the period 
 from 1830 to 1850, when whale fishing was most intensively and ex- 
 tensively followed. 
 
 This collection is regarded by Marine authorities as the most compre- 
 hensive and best executed ever assembled. It contains exquisite and 
 novel specimens done in practically every quarter of the globe, from the 
 frozen Arctic and Antarctic to the tropics, by Mariners of American and 
 Anglo-American origin.

A RARE COLLECTION OF SHIPS’ PEWTER 
 SILVER AND GLASS 
 
 NUMBERS 184-208 
 
 ENGRAVED SHIPS’ SILVER AND PEWTER 
 
 Possibly no other collector has shown the deep interest in assembling the 
 purely utilitarian marine objects of our old ships as has Mr. Waugh. This 
 is not strange, as he is of “Cape Cod Folks’, which is synonymous to 
 “of the Sea.” 
 
 His people have filled every position ‘board ship’ from cabin boy and 
 foremast hand to mate and captain; so it is but natural that his thought 
 should trend strongly toward the intimate things of the sailor’s life; the 
 things with which they actually lived. 
 
 This trend is exemplified in the wonderful group of plates, mugs, etc., 
 which includes both the pewter of the foc’sle, for use by the seamen, and 
 the more pretentious silver of the Master’s Cabin. 
 
 Collecting these specimens entailed much time and labor. Secured at 
 various times and in places ranging from the homes of the direct 
 descendants of the old whalers, to the fast disappearing old ‘Chandler’s 
 Shop’, they represent a collection which it is safe to say cannot be 
 duplicated. 
 
 Incidentally, the old ship chandlers’ shops along the Delaware River front 
 in Philadelphia proved unusually productive of this sort of material. There, 
 under much old sail cloth and early gear and tackle of all description, were 
 unearthed a great many of the pewter plates in Mr. Waugh’s collection.

 Very few of these Admiralty models of the smaller ships of the 18th

 considered of less importance. The “Lion” however was an able 
 little vessel and distinguished herself in many encounters. She is 
 listed as one of the ships cruising in American waters during the

 mand, ‘‘DON’T GIVE UP THE SHIP”’.
