OTIS KAYE'S COIN COLLECTION

Undated (1930) "Otis Kaye's Coin Collection" Painting. By Otis Kaye (1885-1974). Oil on Panel.

Approximately 9.5 inches x 6.5 inches. Professionally re-framed in a modern wood frame reminiscent of the middle to late 19th century styles. This is the only difference in the piece between our offerings of this impressive little work in our (Stack's) May 2008 sale, and our March 2020 sale of the D. Brent Pogue Collection. We are pleased to offer it once again in the present sale, described as in our previous presentations with minor edits:

Indeed, D. Brent Pogue took advantage of the opportunity to acquire this lovely painting in our 2008 sale, where he paid $74,750 in recognition of its beauty, rarity and artistic significance. While such works are not often seen in the realm of numismatic auctions, the particular subject matter and sentiments behind Kaye's artistic expressions make this an ideal accompaniment to another advanced collection.

Provenance: From our (Stack's) Minot Collection sale, May 2008, lot 3139, where it realized $74,750; D. Brent Pogue; our sale of the D. Brent Pogue Collection, Part VII, March 2020 Auction, lot 7419.
