The Jerome C. Neuhoff Collection, Sotheby's New York, 25 January 1986, lot 240
Jerome and Elizabeth Neuhoff formed a collection of late 17th and 18th century English furniture between the 1930s and 1950s for their Georgian-style house at King's Point on the north shore of Long Island, with a particular focus on richly carved mahogany furniture of the late George II and early George III eras. The collection was sold in an important single-owner auction in New York in 1986.
