        Pair of Bookends, Fishermen at Wheel, Silver, J.B

        Est: $50 - $100

        Bookends Pair of Bookends Form: Fisherman Material & Finish: Rare Silver Plate Finish Construction: Molded Maker & Markings: Leonard Craske artist andThe Jennins Bros, Co. They that go Down to the Sea Size: 7.5"H x 4.25"W x 4.5"D Weight: 7.2 lb Condition: Light wear. History 1892-1953, Bridgeport, Connecticut. Copy of the statue Fishermen's Memorial Statue (1925) The inscription is taken from Psalm 107, verse 23, line 24, which reads as follows:"They that go down to the sea in ships,That do business in great waters;These see the works of the Lord,And his wonders in the deep."The sculptor was Leonard Craske and the dedication was August 23, 1925. The bronze monument consists of a nearly square base of sea green granite, carried from the famous "Blood Ledge" in the Bay View section of Gloucester. The stone is cut with a rough finish to typify the rugged character of the figure, with a single panel on the front holding the bronze letters of inscription, "They that go down to the sea in ships". 1623 - 1923.The pose chosen is that of a helmsman bringing his craft up as close hauled to the wind as possible to clear some dangerous rocks, his eyes being fixed on the sails to detect the first indication that they are beginning to spill the wind, every muscle being strained to hold the wheel firmly until the peril is passed.This is a memorial to all of the Gloucester fishermen who in years since Gloucester was settled in 1623 have lost their lives while fishing. It faces the outer harbor in Gloucester, Massachusetts. Meta: Books, bookendLeonard Craske (September 19, 1880 â€" August 29, 1950) was a sculptor. Craske was born and raised in London, England. After emigrating to the United States and settling in Boston, he became an accomplished sculptor, creating the well-known Gloucester Fisherman's Memorial in Gloucester, Massachusetts, the work for which he is best remembered. In the 1920s, Jennings Brothers added a line of high-quality bookends to their manufacturing operations and produced some of the most finely crafted art metal pieces throughout the 1920s and 1930s. JB’s timely and expensive production techniques relied on the talent and handwork of expert artists, sculptors and metal craftsmen. This did not lend itself to machine-directed mass-production, and hiring such talent became an economic burden that threatened the company’s survival. By the early 1940s, JB changed their manufacturing operations to focus on the War effort. All of JB pieces are made of cast gray metal. Even though many pieces are done by famous artists, most are not directly artist signed. All are marked with the letters JB. There is no other manufacturer whose finishing techniques remain as durable as Jennings Brothers. JB bookends and animal figurines are highly prized by collectors worldwide.
