Opened in 2001 2 months after 9/11. My auction started out as a PT venture while working a FT job. Holding my first live auction at a Bingo Hall in Funkstown, MD then in Leitersburg MD at the Fire Co. Activity Center. In 2008 I made the leap to Full time Auctioneer leaving the desk job behind. In Sept 2009 I moved the business into the old Newman's Ford Building in Smithsburg where I have been eve

r since. In late 2017 I started a gradual transition to online auctions. While still available for a live auction if the situation suits Smithsburg Country Auction is now an online auction. November of 2021 will mark my 20th year in the auction business. I am a 1995 Graduate of Millersville U of PA with a B.S in Education. I am also a graduate of Mendenhall School of Auctioneering in High Point, NC. I have been a licensed PA auctioneer for over a decade. I held a MD real estate license for several years. Former member of Hagerstown Rotary & Waynesboro PA Chamber of Commerce.

OK... TIME TO REVEAL MY SURPRISE.. IN SEPTEMBER I WILL BE SELLING THIS GROUP OF 6 ORIGINAL CIVIL WAR DRAWINGS BY ANDREW McCALLUM. McCALLUM CAME HERE FROM SCOTLAND AND JOINED THE 109TH NY. HE WAS TRAINED AS AN ENGINEER BUT WAS ALSO AN ARTIST. IN THE FIELD DURING THE WAR SKETCHES WOULD BE MADE AS EYE WITNESS ACCOUNTS THE SAME WAY PHOTOGRAPHY WOULD BE IN THE DECADES AFTER. McCALLUM'S DRAWINGS WERE SOON BEING MADE INTO WOODCUT PRINTS WHICH WOULD BE PUBLISHED MAINLY IN FRANK LESLIE ILLUSTRATED BUT SOME ALSO IN THE FAMED HARPERS WEEKLY PAPERS. McCALLUM'S WORK CAN BE FOUND IN THE BECKER COLLECTION (BOSTON COLLEGE), THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, VIRGINIA HISTORICAL SOCIETY & U.S. MILITARY HISTORY INSTITUTE. THE FIRST WAS MADE AT THE HANGING OF CONFEDERATE CAPT HEINRICH WIRZ WHO PRESIDED OVER ANDERSONVILLE PRISON AND IS NOTED AS TAKING PLACE AT THE CAPITOL IN DC. SIGNED AND DATED. THE SECOND SHOWS A DEPICTION OF GENERAL GRANT IN 1865 IN A BUGGY OUTSIDE HIS WASHINGTON DC HOME. THE 3RD IS A PORTRAIT SKETCH OF CAPTAIN HEINRICH WIRZ AND SEVERAL OTHER THUMBNAIL SKETCHES AROUND IT.. THE 4TH IS A JOUSTING COMPETITION & LASTLY THE 2 SMALL DRAWINGS ENTITLED "CROWNING THE QUEEN OF LOVE AND BEAUTY" & "MOONLIGHT DANCE". I WILL BE GATHERING MORE INFO IN THE UPCOMING WEEKS AND SHARING MORE DETAILS AS THEY BECOME AVAILABLE. THESE WILL BE SOLD IN 5 LOTS AND WILL BE THEIR OWN AUCTION THAT WILL RUN FOR 4 WEEKS. I HAVE AN APPRAISAL THAT WAS DONE BEFORE THEY WERE GIVEN TO A LOCAL ORGANIZATION. I AM CURRENTLY WAITING TO SEE IF I WILL BE PERMITTED TO DISCLOSE THE NAME OF THE CONSIGNING ORGANIZATION.
