Maria Samuel
A vibrant sampler with medium and large letter in many colors above a very large (4 inch tall) house. The house is flanked by two motifs with very large birds on both.

Annie Jones
Annie finished this small sampler ( just 7 3/4 x 8") in different hues of red to make it very easy to read. Three rows of alphabets are executed over Annie's name and date. Framed in an original period lemon gold frame. Price 395.00
Maria Billon
Maria made a very visual marking sampler with the red on white background. Bought in Maine by my parents in 1974 and told the maker was French-Canadian. Nice size 11 1/4 x 11 1/4 and mounted in a period lemon gold frame. Price 175.00

Mary Emery Miniature
Mary A. Emery produced this fine miniature in Maine or New Hampshire. Born in 1828 in Maine and later moving to Stafford, New Hampshire and the sampler is dated 1837 between the dates of know residence. My parents Bob and Becky purchased this sampler from Doris Stauble in the early 70's in Maine unframed as she had just purchased it herself. Size 6" x 6" Price 365.00
Agnes Alton
I love the format of the late 18th early 19th century band sampler. We have owned this sampler for a long time. Its size makes for a great visual and useable sampler in any home. The sampler has the usual letters and numbers with a larger heart between two sets of letters likely her parents initials. Size 7 1/2" x 16 1/2" Price 395.00
