DUXBURY, MASS. — A leather-bound 130-page hymnal, dating to the early 1840s, was the top-selling lot in Willis Henry’s June 22 sale. It was written in one hand and included hymns, songs and verses gathered from several Shaker communities, including New Lebanon, N.Y., among others. It once belonged to D.C. Brainard, a trustee and elder of the New Lebanon community, who had entered the church at the age of 2. The sale included several items in original paint, with a mustard-yellow-painted Shaker bucket earning $16,250 and a chrome-yellow four-fingered oval box, slightly longer than 8½ inches, earning $15,000. There were chairs, tables, cased pieces, books and several of the implements that Shakers designed for their own use, whether in their homes or for use in commercial enterprises. Prices quoted include the buyer’s premium; a full report will follow.
