Lloyd Garrison Sold at Auction Prices

b. 1944 -

Interested in drawing and painting since he could remember, Lloyd is mostly self-taught. Lloyd started his career in Rahway, New Jersey in October of 1966. As an eleventh generation Rahway native, his paintings are largely inspired by his town and ancestors, who were innkeepers of the Terrill Tavern (which still stands in Rahway) as well as carriage and sled builders. Lloyd's style is realistic, but the subject matter in unlimited. Having spanned a wide variety of subject matter — Revolutionary, Civil War, landscapes, still-lifes, portraits, Surrealism, aviation, nautical, westerns, wildlife and florals, LLoyd loves to take on new artistic challenges.

Lloyd has painted miniature oils, two series of Christmas plates for the Bradford Exchange, and drew comic books for two years with Gold Key Comics. Lloyd's created advertisements including the cover for "Old Spice" cologne, the logo for "Sleep Doctor", and a cover for "Finley" tea. Lloyd's also painted murals for local businesses in the New Jersey area. Some of Lloyd's colonial works include a depiction of George Washington and his troops crossing the Delaware River for Washington Crossing State Park, and a portrait for the Sons of the Revolution organization.

Lloyd's paintings can be found in the homes of Wayne Chrebet of the New York Jets, playwright and screenwriter Norman Wexler (Saturday Night Fever, Serpico), comedian Buddy Hackett and actor Robert Mitchum. One collector has purchased as much as ninety-two of Lloyd's originals. Two paintings can be seen on a wall in the movie "Death Wish" starring Charles Bronson.

        Abolitionist Garrison to Activist Lydia M. Child

        Est: $700 - $900

        GARRISON, WILLIAM LLOYD. (1805-1879). American journalist and abolitionist. ALS. (“Wm. Lloyd Garrison”). 1p. 8vo. N.p. (Boston), August 30 (1858?). To abolitionist, women’s and Indian rights activist and novelist LYDIA MARIA CHILD, 1802-1880. “Some of the ladies (all, indeed, with whom I have conversed) are extremely desirous of your presence at the meeting to be held on Friday next, at Mrs. May’s. They want your convictions, suggestions, and advice, especially as the withdrawal of Mrs. Chapman is almost like Hamlet out of the play, she hitherto having taken the entire management of the Festival upon her own shoulders. Do come, if you can, that a wise decision may be arrived at. We want you to dine with us on that day, and remain with us over night, and as much longer as you can give us your pleasant company. With warm regards to dear Mr. Child, I remain, your admiring friend...” Garrison promoted the radical abolitionist cause through his famous antislavery journal, The Liberator, founded in 1831, and several years later, with his friend Reverend Samuel Joseph May, founded the American Anti-Slavery Society, the aim of which, as stated in its constitution, was to convince all Americans that “slaveholding is a heinous crime in the sight of God” and that “duty, safety, and best interests of all concerned, require its immediate abandonment without expatriation.” For the next 30 years, Garrison remained at the forefront of the abolition movement. Child wrote a diverse array of literature including childrearing manuals, novels, short stories, non-fiction, and poems, including the popular work The Frugal Housewife and her famous Thanksgiving poem, “Over the River and Through the Wood.” She also founded and edited the first American monthly magazine for children, Juvenile Miscellany. Beginning in the 1830s, Child became involved in the abolition movement, and her 1833 book An Appeal in Favor of That Class of Americans Called Africans, was the first book-length, anti-slavery tract to be published in the United States and brought her a degree of renown. The work influenced such notable leaders as Unitarian theologian William Ellery Channing and American abolitionist and activist for American Indian and women’s rights Wendell Phillips. Although initially reluctant to join a gender-segregated organization, Child was recruited to the Boston Female Anti-Slavery Society, and although she wrote to Lucretia Mott in 1839, “I never have entered very earnestly into the plan of female conventions and societies. They always seemed to me like half a pair of scissors,” she was an active member in the organization, even founding the Boston Anti-Slavery Bazaar in 1834. The fundraising event was so successful that it was widely imitated. However, in 1858, abolitionist Maria Weston Chapman (1806-1885), who had headed the bazaar since 1835 and edited its fundraising booklet The Liberty Bell, declared it out of fashion and unilaterally decided to replace the bazaar with the Anti-Slavery Subscription Anniversary. Her domineering personality and boundless energy prompted such nicknames as Captain Chapman, Joan of Arc, the Great Goddess, and Lady Macbeth. In our letter, Garrison invokes another Shakespeare play when referencing Chapman. Chapman was a close associate of Garrison, editing The Liberator in his absence as well as serving on the editorial committee of the National Anti-Slavery Standard, the periodical of the American Anti-Slavery Society, the executive committee of which she was a member. Likewise, Child (and later her husband) edited the National Anti-Slavery Standard, for several years, until she ended her affiliation with the publication over its increasing promotion of violence as a tool to end slavery, a point of view which was somewhat tempered in her later years. Our letter possibly refers to a meeting to be held at the home of Reverend Samuel Joseph May and his wife, Lucretia Flagge May (née Coffin, 1793-1865), who were active in both the abolitionist cause and the Underground Railroad in Syracuse. May was the brother of American reformer Abigail May Alcott and, as such, the uncle of American author Louisa May Alcott. Neatly written on lined paper. Folded and in fine condition. Accompanied by an engraving of Garrison.
