Finally took some time to enlarge some of the goodies that are found in my 1960 Christmas catalog. The prices are what get me every time I look at em.
I apologize that I am not very good in Photoshop and my partner (the professional photographer), gets a bit testy when I continually ask her questions. ;)

This statue in Tuoro Park, Newport RI commemorates Commodore Matthew C. Perry (1794-1858), who is most famous for leading a flotilla of US warships into Japanese waters, forcing an end to the country’s 250 years of isolationism. A prime example of Gunboat Diplomacy, Perry’s arrival caused consternation in Japan, leading to the signing of Convention of Kanagawa. This opened up Japanese ports to trade with the United States and other western nations. Submissive Japanese plenipotentiaries are depicted on the frieze at the base of the statue.
The statue is the work of sculptor John Quincy Adams Ward and was completed in 1869. The pedestal was designed by Richard Morris Hunt, who gained later fame for designing several of Newport’s Gilded Age mansions.
