About the Item

Absolutely stunning Newcomb Macklin Spanish Baroque frame. Original rubbed gold gilt and black. Close to 5" wide,33" x 39", rabbit 25.25" x 31.25". The Newcomb-Macklin Company traced its roots to a regional frame manufacturer founded in 1871 in Evanston, Illinois by S. H. McElswain. After twelve years in business, in 1883, McElswain sold his company to a partnership formed by the firm's bookkeeper, Charles Macklin, and John C. Newcomb. The partners relocated their business to Chicago, Illinois, where the company's production plant occupied a full city block at 400-408 N. State Street in the city's near north side. Sales were generated by a product showroom adjacent to the Chicago factory and by a traveling sales force. Within a few years, the company also opened product showrooms in New York City and Glendale, California, though the Glendale location closed about 1940. Newcomb-Macklin Company ceased operation in 1979 when the assets of the company were acquired by Thanhardt-Burger Corporation of LaPorte, Indiana. Thanhardt-Burger sold frames based on Newcomb-Macklin's designs until 2013, when the company's frame-making facility in LaPorte was destroyed by fire.
