POUND RIDGE, N.Y.— Butterscotch Auctioneers & Appraisers’ Fall Sale on September 13 was led by a Theora Alton Hamblett (Mississippi, 1895-1977) oil on Masonite titled “Faithfully Waiting,” which sold just over its high estimate at $27,500, including buyer’s premium. The 1951 painting by the Southern folk artist came out of the estate of fellow artist and author Edward Giobbi (1926-2026), who lived in nearby Katonah, N.Y. More results to appear in an upcoming issue.
