Past Success

On
Saturday May 24, 1997 items from "The Baltic" went on the
auction block at Sloan's Miami Gallery. In October 1866 the American
brig "Baltic" returned to New York from Europe with a cargo
of English, Scottish, French, German & Chinese porcelain. After
clearing customs, the "Baltic", bound for Galveston, Texas
was to bring medical supplies & food to Confederate soldiers; she
never made her destination. The ship was hit by a hurricane and sunk
off North Eleuthera in the Bahamas. A total of 88 lots of recovered
porcelain was auctioned to benefit a program to educate
and rehabilitate youthful offenders. The bidding for these items
ranged from $50 to $400 and up.
